Year: 2017

description: Insensitive research approaches have resulted in damaged relationships between non-Indigenous researchers and Indigenous communities, prompting scholars and funding agencies to call for more culturally compatible research methods. This paper addresses the qualities, skills and knowledge developed by six non-Indigenous researchers as they built–and continue to maintain–respectful research relationships with Indigenous communities. Also discussed are the important formative experiences that have shaped the six researchers in their ongoing work. Findings presented in this paper are synthesized from a larger research project undertaken using narrative approaches to data collection and analysis. Des approches de recherche insensibles ont nuit aux relations entre les chercheurs non autochtones et les communautés autochtones, ce qui a incité les universitaires et les organismes de financement à exiger des méthodes de recherche plus respectueuses et mieux adaptées aux cultures. Cet article porte sur les qualités, les habiletés et les connaissances qu’ont développées six chercheurs non autochtones en établissant et en maintenant des relations de recherche avec des communautés autochtones. Nous discutons également des expériences formatrices qui ont marqué les six chercheurs et façonné leur travail en cours. Les résultats présentés dans cet article sont synthétisés d’un plus grand projet de recherche reposant sur des approches narratives à la collection et à l’analyse de données.

description: A complex study of magnetic properties including dc magnetization, 1H NMR and magnetic torque measurements has been performed for the organic conductor kappa-(BETS)2Mn[N(CN)2]3 which undergoes a metal-insulator transition at T_MI~25K. NMR and the magnetization data indicate a transition in the manganese subsystem from paramagnetic to a frozen state at T_MI, which is, however, not a simple Neel type order. Further, a magnetic field induced transition resembling a spin flop has been detected in the torque measurements at temperatures below T_MI. This transition is most likely related to the spins of pi-electrons localized on the organic molecules BETS and coupled with the manganese 3d spins via exchange interaction.

description: An estimate is derived for the volume fraction of a subset $C_ε^{P} = \{U : ||grad J(U)|\leq ε\}\subset\mathrm{U}(N)$ in the neighborhood of the critical set $C^{P}\simeq\mathrm{U}(\mathbf{n})P\mathrm{U}(\mathbf{m})$ of the kinematic quantum ensemble control landscape J(U) = Tr(UρU' O), where $U$ represents the unitary time evolution operator, ρ is the initial density matrix of the ensemble, and O is an observable operator. This estimate is based on the Hilbert-Schmidt geometry for the unitary group and a first-order approximation of $||grad J(U)||^2$. An upper bound on these near-critical volumes is conjectured and supported by numerical simulation, leading to an asymptotic analysis as the dimension $N$ of the quantum system rises in which the volume fractions of these "near-critical" sets decrease to zero as $N$ increases. This result helps explain the apparent lack of influence exerted by the many saddles of $J$ over the gradient flow.

A Temporal Description Logic for Reasoning about Actions and Plans
Creators: name: Artale, A.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Artificial Intelligence (cs.AI)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: A class of interval-based temporal languages for uniformly representing and reasoning about actions and plans is presented. Actions are represented by describing what is true while the action itself is occurring, and plans are constructed by temporally relating actions and world states. The temporal languages are members of the family of Description Logics, which are characterized by high expressivity combined with good computational properties. The subsumption problem for a class of temporal Description Logics is investigated and sound and complete decision procedures are given. The basic language TL-F is considered first: it is the composition of a temporal logic TL -- able to express interval temporal networks -- together with the non-temporal logic F -- a Feature Description Logic. It is proven that subsumption in this language is an NP-complete problem. Then it is shown how to reason with the more expressive languages TLU-FU and TL-ALCF. The former adds disjunction both at the temporal and non-temporal sides of the language, the latter extends the non-temporal side with set-valued features (i.e., roles) and a propositionally complete language.

description: As a contribution to the understanding of the dark energy concept, the Dark energy American French Team (DAFT, in French FADA) has started a large project to characterize statistically high redshift galaxy clusters, infer cosmological constraints from Weak Lensing Tomography, and understand biases relevant for constraining dark energy and cluster physics in future cluster and cosmological experiments. The purpose of this paper is to establish the basis of reference for the photo-z determination used in all our subsequent papers, including weak lensing tomography studies. This project is based on a sample of 91 high redshift (z>0.4), massive clusters with existing HST imaging, for which we are presently performing complementary multi-wavelength imaging. This allows us in particular to estimate spectral types and determine accurate photometric redshifts for galaxies along the lines of sight to the first ten clusters for which all the required data are available down to a limit of I_AB=24/24.5 with the LePhare software. The accuracy in redshift is of the order of 0.05 for the range 0.2

description: Purpose: The purpose of this article is to address some common concerns associated with the neurodiversity paradigm and to offer related implications for service provision to school-age autistic students. In particular, we highlight the need to (a) view first-person autistic perspectives as an integral component of evidence-based practice, (b) use the individualized education plan as a means to actively address environmental contributions to communicative competence, and (c) center intervention around respect for autistic sociality and self-expression. We support these points with cross-disciplinary scholarship and writings from autistic individuals.Conclusions: We recognize that school-based speech-language pathologists are bound by institutional constraints, such as eligibility determination and Individualized Education Program processes that are not inherently consistent with the neurodiversity paradigm. Consequently, we offer examples for implementing the neurodiversity paradigm while working within these existing structures. In sum, this article addresses key points of tension related to the neurodiversity paradigm in a way that we hope will directly translate into improved service provision for autistic students.

description: There are a couple of purposes in this paper: to study a problem of approximation with exponential functions and to show its relevance for the economic science. We present results that completely solve the problem of the best approximation by means of exponential functions and we will be able to determine what kind of data is suitable to be fitted. Data will be approximated using TAC (implemented in the R-package nlstac), a numerical algorithm for fitting data by exponential patterns without initial guess designed by the authors. We check one more time the robustness of this algorithm by successfully applying it to two very distant areas of economy: demand curves and nonlinear time series. This shows TAC's utility and highlights how far this algorithm could be used.

description: Many of the artificial intelligence techniques developed to date rely on heuristic search through large spaces. Unfortunately, the size of these spaces and the corresponding computational effort reduce the applicability of otherwise novel and effective algorithms. A number of parallel and distributed approaches to search have considerably improved the performance of the search process. Our goal is to develop an architecture that automatically selects parallel search strategies for optimal performance on a variety of search problems. In this paper we describe one such architecture realized in the Eureka system, which combines the benefits of many different approaches to parallel heuristic search. Through empirical and theoretical analyses we observe that features of the problem space directly affect the choice of optimal parallel search strategy. We then employ machine learning techniques to select the optimal parallel search strategy for a given problem space. When a new search task is input to the system, Eureka uses features describing the search space and the chosen architecture to automatically select the appropriate search strategy. Eureka has been tested on a MIMD parallel processor, a distributed network of workstations, and a single workstation using multithreading. Results generated from fifteen puzzle problems, robot arm motion problems, artificial search spaces, and planning problems indicate that Eureka outperforms any of the tested strategies used exclusively for all problem instances and is able to greatly reduce the search time for these applications.
Moonlighting tRNA synthetases as extracellular targets of matrix metalloproteinases
Creators: name: Jobin, Parker
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: Protease activity is of particular interest because of its irreversible nature and hence commitment by living systems to post-translationally truncate or remove by degradation its substrates. Degradomics, a combination of approaches used to study proteases, their inhibitors, and their substrates, allows powerful analyses of proteolytic networks. Degradomics has allowed the identification of a vast number of novel protease substrates, leading to speculation of molecular partnerships previously unknown to biology. For the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family of extracellular proteases, degradomic screens have led us to realize that many proteins with intracellular roles are secreted by non-canonical means to perform novel extracellular functions that may be modulated by MMPs. Where it was once thought MMPs only degraded extracellular matrix (ECM), they are now known to process diverse signaling substrates. Interesting multifunctional targets of MMP processing are “moonlighting” proteins that have more than one unique activity and can shuttle between intracellular and extracellular compartments to exhibit different functions in each. Recently, intracellular tRNA synthetases have been identified as extracellular moonlighting proteins. Despite the lack of signal peptides, six tRNA synthetases have been found to be secreted and perform different functions in the extracellular environment, notably activation of the immune response. I hypothesized that MMP processing of tryptophanyl-tRNA synthetase (WRS), a cytokine, and tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase (YRS), fragments of which are proinflammatory, would modify the inflammatory activities of these tRNA synthetases. First, WRS and YRS secretion from human cells was confirmed. I then expressed and purified full-length WRS and YRS to evaluate MMP processing of these proteins. MMP cleavage sites within WRS and YRS were determined, revealing that MMPs cut the N-terminus from WRS but cleave within the YRS C-terminus, generating stable proteoforms. Cell culture assays revealed that both WRS and YRS have proinflammatory functions, each activating Toll-like receptors (TLRs). While removal of the N-terminus of WRS by MMP processing attenuated these activities, conversely, MMP cleavage of YRS increased proinflammatory functions, suggesting that MMPs play differing roles depending on the substrate being processed. This research exposes the exciting biology that awaits in tapping a previously unknown well of moonlighting MMP substrates with diverse bioactive roles.
FEED RESOURCES, FEEDING PRACTICES AND NUTRIENT BALANCE  OF DAIRY CATTLE IN KEDIDA GAMELA WOREDA OF KAMBATA  TAMBARO ZONE, SOUTH CENTRAL ETHIOPIA
Creators: name: FISEHA TADELE WOTE
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2018

description: The study was carried out in Kedida Gamela Woreda of Kambata Tambaro Zone, South central
Ethiopia with the objectives of assessing the major dairy cattle feed resources in terms of quality
and quantity,  assessing the feeding systems,  estimating the balance  between feed supply and
requirement and to identify  the constraints, opportunities and coping strategies of dairy cattle
feeding  in relation to agro-ecologies and seasons  in the study area.  Field survey, field
measurement and  laboratory analyses were applied to generate the data. Multistage sampling
procedures were followed.  A total of 160 respondents were included for the formal cross
sectional  study. Feed samples were analyzed in duplicates for  dry matter (DM), crude protein
(CP),  ash,  neutral detergent  fiber (NDF),  acid detergent fiber (ADF),  acid detergent lignin
(ADL)  contents and  in vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD).  The overall mean TLU  per
household was 5.9, 0.07, 0.06, 0.24, 0.02 and 6.3 for cattle, sheep, goats, donkeys, poultry and
total livestock, respectively.  The major available feed resources in the study area includes
natural pasture, crop residues,  enset, banana, sugar cane tops, improved forages,  and  agro
industrial by products. Overall mean  annual  DM output was  6.9 ± 0.15  tons per household
(P>0.05). About 15%, 20%, 13%, 18.8%, 7.3% and 26.1% of DM were contributed by natural
pasture, crop residues, concentrates, forages, fodders and others to the total annual DM output,
respectively. Both cattle herd size and total DM output were positively correlated with a  land
size (r = 0.342 and r = 0.755), respectively. The NDF content of most feed resources was less
than 65%,  except for teff straw  (76%).  Mean  DM produced  per household  in highland and
midland were  3.4  and  3.7tons (P<0.05)  and  required  8.5  and  8tons  (P>0.05) with a  negative
balance of 5.1 and 4.3tons (P<0.05), respectively. Mean DM produced per household during wet
and dry season were 4.1 and 3.1tons (P<0.05) and  required 7.9 and 8.6tons (P>0.05) with a
negative balance of 3.9 and 5.5tons (P<0.05), respectively. Overall feeding systems at wet and
dry season were 37.5% and 5% herded grazing, 27.5% and 75% stall feeding and 35% and 20%
tethering (P>0.05).  The estimation demonstrated that  the feed  requirements  of dairy cattle
exceed feed supply between agro ecologies and seasons in the study area. Further, an integrated
effort of different stakeholders would be required in improving the quality and quantity of feed
resources as well as feeding systems to exploit the potential of the dairy cattle.

description: Field  experiment  was  conducted  during  2014-15  to  assess  the  effect  of  combined  NP  rate  on  yield,  yield
components and grain protein of bread wheat varieties  on Robe Farms, Bale Zone of Oromyia, South-eastern
Ethiopia. The NP  rates  combinations were N
0P0, N46P23, N92P46, N138P69, N184P92  and N
46P46  kg/ha,  .whereas
varieties  were  Kakaba,  Pavon-76  and  Dandaa.  Experiment  was  designed  in  factorial  RCBD  with  eighteen
treatments and three replications. There was significant response of wheat to fertilization. The higher levels of
N138P69 and N
184P92 kg ha
-1
gave significantly higher grain yields and grain protein  than lower levels, including
state  level  recommendation of  N46P46  kg/ha.    Dandaa produced significantly higher grain yield than Pavon-76
and Kakaba.  The protein content was  similar for Dandaa and Pavon-76, but significantly higher than Kakaba.
The quadratic yield responses showed high correlation between yields and fertilizer rates for varieties (R
2
0.99,
0.98, 0.84) and wheat in general (R
2
0.98).  The yield potentials of Dandaa, Pavon-76 and wheat in general
were  71.4,  61.5  and  67.1  q  ha
-1
, achieved  at  N
147P74,  N133P66  and  N
191P96  kg  ha

,
respectively.  The  optimum
yields of Dandaa, Pavon-76 and wheat in general were 71.2, 61.2 and  66.8  q/ha, achieved at N
135P68,  N121P60
and  N
170P85
kg  ha
-1
,
respectively.  Kakaba  had  still  not  reached  maximum  yield.  The  profit  was  higher  for
Dandaa (25,659 birr/ha) compared to Pavon-76 (20,608 birr/ha) and wheat in general  23,872 birr/ha. Dandaa
and  pavon-76  were  more  nutrient-use  efficient  than  Kakaba  at  low  to  high  application  rates  with  higher
marginal rate of returns (MRR) and agronomic efficiency. Accordingly, Dandaa and pavon-76 varieties may be
more universal for adoption under varied situations.  The Kakaba variety, on the other hand, showing promise
only at very high rate of fertilization may be less preferred for adoption in areas with low to medium fertility
and resource-poor farmers.  The results  indicating the need  for fertilization three to four times the state level
recommendations  may  be  further  validated  through  verification  trials  on  farmers’  fields  with  same  agro
ecology, in cooperation with Commercial Agricultural Development enterprises and private investors.

description: Love, broadly defined, needs space to grow. For love to materialize and sustain itself (in both literature and society), it must find hospitable geosocial, institutional, and psychic terrain. This is especially true for queer intimacies beyond heteronormative relationality, for the prospect of love’s radical––or reactionary––possibilities is contingent upon the more general sociality in which it develops. Yet love is often a worldmaking and, sometimes, historic mechanism unto itself. Love and its concomitant sexualities must therefore be understood within and without normative structures of hegemony; the workings of (neo)colonialism and capitalism––as well as patriarchy, white supremacy, and heterosexism––dictate to love, and love, at its fiercest, dictates back, or, less ideally, carves out a space for itself within hegemonic social delineations.

Accordingly, this thesis examines homoerotic love’s dizzying relation to colonial, capitalist, and heteronormative worlds through the queer relationships at the heart of E. M. Forster’s A Passage to India (1924) and James Baldwin’s Giovanni’s Room (1956). I propose that the novels’ landscapes of queer love––A Passage to India’s Marabar Caves and Giovanni’s Room’s eponymous apartment––offer a historicizing spatiality, articulating queerness’s social exclusion and restive generativity. Such spatiality narrativizes not-yet-reachable geographies beyond the colonial, capitalist, and heteronormative regimes of twentieth-century literature and culture. In doing so, the intimate spaces at the heart of A Passage to India and Giovanni’s Room give us reason to yearn and, occasionally, reason to hope.

description: Drexler dark matter is an alternate approach to dark matter that assumes that highly relativistic protons trapped in the halo of the galaxies could account for the missing mass. We look at various energetics involved in such a scenario such as the energy required to produce such particles and the corresponding lifetimes. Also we look at the energy losses from synchrotron and inverse Compton scattering and their signatures. The Coulomb repulsive instability due to the excess charge around the galaxies is also calculated. The above results lead us to conclude that such a model for DM is unfeasible.

description: This study investigates the impact of initial contact of drivers with an SAE Level 3 Automated Driving System (ADS) under real traffic conditions, focusing on the Mercedes-Benz Drive Pilot in the EQS. It examines Acceptance, Trust, Usability, and User Experience. Although previous studies in simulated environments provided insights into human-automation interaction, real-world experiences can differ significantly. The research was conducted on a segment of German interstate with 30 participants lacking familiarity with SAE Level 3 ADS. Pre- and post-driving questionnaires were used to assess changes in acceptance and trust. Supplementary metrics included post-driving ratings for usability and user experience. Findings reveal a significant increase in acceptance and trust following the first contact, confirming results from prior studies. Factors such as Performance Expectancy, Effort Expectancy, Facilitating Condition, and Perceived Safety were rated higher after initial contact with the ADS. However, inadequate communication from the ADS to the human driver was detected, highlighting the need for improved communication to prevent misuse or confusion about the operating mode. However, it’s worth noting that most participants already had a high affinity for technology. Although overall reception was positive and showed an upward trend post first contact, the ADS was also perceived as demanding as manual driving. Future research should focus on a more diverse participant sample and include longer or multiple real-traffic trips to understand behavioral adaptations over time.

description: We investigate the interaction between two cracks propagating in a thin sheet. Two different experimental geometries allow us to tear sheets by imposing an out-of-plane shear loading. We find that two tears converge along self-similar paths and annihilate each other. These finite-distance singularities display geometry-dependent similarity exponents, which we retrieve using scaling arguments based on a balance between the stretching and the bending of the sheet close to the tips of the cracks.

description: Survey  of  weed  flora  of  sugarcane  crop  and  a  field  experiment  were  carried  out  during
2014/2015  to  identify  weed  flora  of  sugarcane  and  to  assess  the  critical  period  of  weed
competition in sugarcane at  Kuraz Sugarcane plantation. The experiment was consisted of 12
treatments in which weed infested treatments weeds allowed to compete with sugarcane crop up
to 40, 60, 80, 100 and 120 days after planting and weed free treatments, up to 40, 60, 80, 100
and  120 days after planting. These five weed infested treatments and five weed free treatments
were  tested  along  with  two  controls  namely  weed  infested  and  weed  free  treatments.  The
experiment was carried out in RCBD replicated three times. In this experiment,  all agronomic
practices, except the treatment (weed), were applied uniformly to all plots. As per the treatment,
weeds  were  removed  manually  at  41,  61,  81,  101,  121  DAP.  Data  were  collected  on  types  of
weeds species, weed biomass, sugarcane growth and yield parameters and cane yield. The data
were  tabulated  and  analyzed  statistically  by  using  SAS  statistical  software  version  9.2  for
windows.  The  results  of the  survey  indicated  that  weed  communities  composed  of  29  different
families  were  found  grown  with  sugarcane.  The  species  of  dominant  families  in  bracket  were
Poaceae  (24)  and  Asteraceae  (11).  The  most  dominant  and  frequent  weed-species  were
Convolvulus  arvensis  L.,  Brachiaria  mutica  L.,  Abutilon  theoplrast  Medicus,  Commelina
benghalensis  L., and Corchorus olitorius  L..  Weed dry biomass production was decreased with
increasing  durations  of  weed  free  periods  and  with  decreasing  durations  of  weedy  periods.
According to the results of the experiment, five percent acceptable cane yield loss level better
predicted the actual condition of the location for estimating critical period of weed competition.
Thus,  the  beginning  and  end  of  critical  periods  of  weed  interference  on  5  %  acceptable  cane
yield loss level ranged between 36 to 102  -  DAP  for NCo 334.  This implies to obtain 95 % cane
yield of sugarcane, the maximum time allowed to let weeds grow after sett emergence is 36 DAP.
The same level of cane yield could be achieved if the crop kept free from weeds until 102  -  DAP
implying weed control measures should be  taken to prevent yield loss in this period. Although
different  weed  competition  periods  did  not  affect  number  of  internode  and  stalk  diameter
significantly but effect on  cane yield,  stripped cane weight, cane length and number of millable
cane was highly significant. The maximum cane yield loss due to weeds for NCo 334 was 53.3%.

An Asymptotically Optimal Algorithm for Maximum Matching in Dynamic Streams
Creators: name: Assadi, Sepehr
name: Shah, Vihan
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Data Structures and Algorithms (cs.DS)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: We present an algorithm for the maximum matching problem in dynamic (insertion-deletions) streams with *asymptotically optimal* space complexity: for any $n$-vertex graph, our algorithm with high probability outputs an $α$-approximate matching in a single pass using $O(n^2/α^3)$ bits of space. A long line of work on the dynamic streaming matching problem has reduced the gap between space upper and lower bounds first to $n^{o(1)}$ factors [Assadi-Khanna-Li-Yaroslavtsev; SODA 2016] and subsequently to $\text{polylog}{(n)}$ factors [Dark-Konrad; CCC 2020]. Our upper bound now matches the Dark-Konrad lower bound up to $O(1)$ factors, thus completing this research direction. Our approach consists of two main steps: we first (provably) identify a family of graphs, similar to the instances used in prior work to establish the lower bounds for this problem, as the only "hard" instances to focus on. These graphs include an induced subgraph which is both sparse and contains a large matching. We then design a dynamic streaming algorithm for this family of graphs which is more efficient than prior work. The key to this efficiency is a novel sketching method, which bypasses the typical loss of $\text{polylog}{(n)}$-factors in space compared to standard $L_0$-sampling primitives, and can be of independent interest in designing optimal algorithms for other streaming problems.

Subjects: classificationCode: 2.7

description: Sulfur accumulation during biofuel production is pollutive, toxic to conversion catalysts, and causes the premature breakdown of processing equipment. Air classification is an effective preprocessing technology for ash and sulfur removal from biomass feedstocks. A life cycle assessment (LCA) sought to understand the environmental impacts of implementing air classification as a sulfur-mitigation technique for pine residues. Energy demand and material balance for preprocessing were simulated using SimaPro and the Argonne National Laboratory’s GREET model, specifically focusing on comparing the global warming potential (GWP) of grid electricity versus bioelectricity scenarios. Overall, the grid electricity scenario had a GWP impact over 7 times that of the bioelectricity scenario with the largest source of impact from steam generation during rotary drying. Air classification represents 0.4% and 1.6% of total GWP impact for the grid electricity and bioelectricity scenarios, respectively. Therefore, air classification can facilitate significant sulfur reduction to improve rates of biofuel conversion and lessen corrosion of combustion equipment while contributing minimal GWP impact during preprocessing.

Childhood emotional abuse : relationships with injection drug use and chronic pain
Creators: name: Prangnell, Amy
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2019

description: Background: Childhood emotional abuse is an under-researched but significant public health problem. Impacts may include a higher risk for initiating injection drug use, as indicated by emerging evidence. Yet in Canada, there is a lack of research among people who inject drugs (PWID) regarding the impact of childhood emotional abuse on chronic pain and related outcomes. As such, this thesis will examine the relationships between childhood emotional abuse, injection drug use, and adult chronic pain. Methods: A systematic literature search was undertaken to identify previous studies that investigated relationships between childhood abuse (sexual, physical, or emotional) and adult injection drug use. Drawing on longitudinal cohort data from the Vancouver Injection Drug User Study (VIDUS) and the AIDS Care Cohort to Evaluate Exposure to Survival Services (ACCESS) between June 2014 and November 2016, I employed generalized estimating equations (GEE) to examine potential associations between childhood emotional abuse and adult chronic pain among PWID (Study Two), and between childhood emotional abuse and adult pain interference among PWID with chronic pain (Study Three). Results: Among the 17 articles included in the systematic review, there was strong evidence for physical abuse increasing the risk of adult injection drug use, with mixed results for sexual and emotional abuse. Study Two included 1459 PWID. In a multivariable GEE analysis, experiencing childhood emotional abuse was significantly and positively associated with experiencing chronic pain after adjusting for other types of childhood abuse and relevant socio-demographic, drug-use, and health related confounders. Study Three followed 822 PWID with chronic pain. In a multivariable GEE analysis, childhood emotional abuse remained significantly and positively associated with pain interference after adjusting for relevant socio-demographic, drug-use, and health related confounders. In addition, a history of mental illness diagnosis partially mediated this association. Conclusions: Findings of this thesis emphasize the detrimental and long-term impact of childhood abuse. It is imperative to utilize a variety of universal and targeted approaches in order to prevent childhood abuse. The results also further strengthen the rationale for expanding trauma-informed care approaches for chronic pain management, combined with strategies to prevent or ameliorate mental illness.
