description: Black females in the United States disproportionately suffer from STDs, including HIV. Understanding the sociocultural conditions that affect their risk is essential to developing effective and culturally relevant prevention programs. METHODS: In 2016-2017 in Madison, Wisconsin, 20 black females aged 19-62 completed interviews that explored the sociocultural conditions associated with sexual development and STD/HIV risk. Interviews were guided by grounded theory; open, axial and selective coding and constant comparative analysis were used to identify developmental phases and relevant sociocultural conditions. RESULTS: Three phases of becoming a sexual black woman were identified: Girl, when participants reported beginning to understand their sexuality; Grown, marking a transition to adulthood, when participants began to feel more self-sufficient yet still grappled with their emerging sexuality; and Woman, when participants developed a strong sense of self and took ownership of their bodies. Two sociocultural conditions affected progression through these phases: stereotype messaging and protection (both self-protection and protecting others). Negative life events (e.g., sexual trauma) and early sexualization reportedly affected sexual development, and STD experience influenced self-perceptions of sexuality and sexual behavior, often leading to self-protective behaviors. Older participants reported strategies to protect young black females from negative sexual experiences. CONCLUSION: Interventions at multiple levels of the social ecology throughout the life course may help reduce STD/HIV risk among black women in the United States. Future research should include examination of the experiences of black females younger than 18 and evaluation of the protective strategies employed by older black females.

description: Harmonic moments are integrals of integer powers of z = x+iy over a domain. Here the domain is an exterior of a bubble of air growing in an oil layer between two horizontal closely spaced plates. Harmonic moments are a natural basis for such Laplacian growth phenomena because, unlike other representations, these moments linearize the zero surface tension problem (Richardson, 1972), so that all moments except the lowest one are conserved in time. For non-zero surface tension, we show that the the harmonic moments decay in time rather than exhibiting the divergences of other representations. Our laboratory observations confirm the theoretical predictions and demonstrate that an interface dynamics description in terms of harmonic moments is physically realizable and robust. In addition, by extending the theory to include surface tension, we obtain from measurements of the time evolution of the harmonic moments a value for the surface tension that is within 20% of the accepted value.

description: The article presents the results of multidisciplinary study carried out with the help of archaeological and astronomical methods. The aim of the study was to analyze and interpret the signs elements of the composition, incised on the outer side surface of the vessel of the Late Bronze Age, owned to Srubna culture and discovered near the Staropetrovsky village in the northeast of the Donetsk region. The measurements and astronomical calculations revealed that all signs have astronomical meaning. Fourray star has been interpreted as the star Sirius. The sign polyline has been interpreted as an analog of graphic of equation of time in which the testimony of a water clock correspond with average solar time, and the testimony of a sundial the true solar time. Sign wheel has been interpreted as a complex of lines, reflecting the regularity changing the direction of the shadows from the gnomon at sunset at the equinoxes and solstices. The sign thin polyline has been interpreted as a symbol of change of height of the Sun in the meridian at the equinoxes and solstices. Interpretation of wheel and polyline is related to the definition of the duration of the day. Sign of the wheel shows a direct relationship the duration of the day on the magnitude of the azimuth of sunrise/sunset, and thin polyline from changing the height of the Sun in the meridian. Thus Staropetrovsky vessel, thanks to the astronomical signs, is a kind of ancient astronomical visual aid, which reflects the level of astronomical knowledge of the priesthood of Srubna culture at the late Bronze Age.

THE STARTING LUNAR MANSION

description: The present study compares the twenty-eight lunar mansions of Dabaism and Dongbaism, from the perspective of pronunciation, writing, and star atlases, with new data of Daba calendars collected from my fieldwork. I try to decipher the questionable Dongba stars documented by scholars before according to Daba stars, since they share similarities, with reference from the commonly shared 28-lunar mansion systems among Tibetan, Sanskrit, and Chinese. One of the differences between Dabaism and Dongbaism is the choice of starting lunar mansion. According to records about the stars “on duty” on the first day of each month in Dongba classics, I suggest the star from the constellation “human” should be in agreement with the Dongba tradition. In this case, the starting lunar mansion in Dabaism could be an additional written proof of this tradition.

description: We prove some related results concerning blow-up solutions for the Jang equation. First: it has been shown that, given an outermost marginally outer trapped surface (MOTS) Σ, there exists a solution to Jang's equation which blows up at Σ. Here we show that in addition, large classes of spherically symmetric initial data have solutions to the Jang equation which blow up at non-outermost MOTSs, i.e. MOTSs which lie strictly inside of other MOTS, and even inside of strictly outer trapped surfaces. Unlike for outermost MOTSs, however, we show that there do not \emph{always} exist blow-up solutions for inner MOTSs, even in spherical symmetry. Secondly, an unpublished result of R. Schoen, whose proof we include here, says that in the time-symmetric case, any MOTS corresponding to a blow-up solution for Jang's equation must be outer-area-minimizing, i.e. cannot be contained in a surface of strictly smaller area. The statement is false without the assumption of time-symmetry, however; we construct an explicit spherically symmetric data set providing a counterexample for the general case.

Electronic density of states as the descriptor of elastic bond strength, ductility, and local lattice distortion in BCC refractory alloys

description: Although electronic density of states (DOS) is fundamental to materials properties, its general relationship to mechanical properties of alloys is not well established. In this paper, using density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we show that the electronic occupancy at the Fermi level, N(Ef), obtained from DOS is a key descriptor of alloy strength and ductility. Our comprehensive analysis of numerous body centered cubic (BCC) refractory high entropy alloys (RHEAs) shows an overwhelming correlation that low N(Ef) indicates strong bonds that have high stiffness resulting in high elastic constants. High bond stiffness indicates presence of covalent nature of bonds that are directional in nature resulting in resistance to deformation leading to high bulk (B) and shear (G) moduli. Consequently, N(Ef) provides a direct correlation to the tendency of alloy ductility evidenced in the Pugh ratio (G/B). As stiffer bonds result in lower local lattice distortion (LLD), N(Ef) are LLD are also found to be corelated which opens up a correlation to solid solution strengthening and yield strength. Thus, this work unveils fundamental correlations between N(Ef) and (1) elastic bond strength, (2) ductility, and (3) LLD. These correlations open opportunities for the design of high strength high ductile RHEAs.

Attitudes of row house residents toward residential location
Creators: name: Andzans, Peter
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The town or row house has, in recent years, become an important alternative form of family accomodation. Consequently, many of these developments cater to the young expanding family. However, the present location policies of some municipalities have not accounted for the locational concerns and preferences, of these residents, which are determined by their housing needs and are somewhat reflected in their level of satisfaction with the existing residential environment. It was the purpose of this survey to examine this situation by testing the hypotheses that: 1) young expanding families have certain locational concerns and preferences which are dissimilar to those of other families in row house developments. 2) those developments poorly located with regard to those locational concerns and preferences are causing dissatisfaction among the residents. A number of systematically sampled dwelling units, from selected developments in two Vancouver area municipalities, were surveyed by questionnaire. For purposes of analysis, the data was manipulated by statistical techniques of the SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) computer program. Generally, the results indicated that the dissimilarity in locational preferences was very pronounced between childless families and families with children, and secondly, many developments did reveal much dissatisfaction with important aspects of the residential location. The major sources of dissatisfaction were traffic and noise from adjacent streets; presence of obnoxious commercial or industrial facilities; inaccessible convenience stores; and, inadequate public transportation service.

Superconducting triplet pairings and anisotropic magnetoresistance effects in ferromagnet/superconductor/ferromagnet double-barrier junctions

Subjects: subject: 530 Physik

description: Ferromagnetic spin valves offer the key building blocks to integrate giant- and tunneling-magnetoresistance effects into spintronics devices. Starting from a generalized Blonder-Tinkham-Klapwijk approach, we theoretically investigate the impact of interfacial Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit couplings on the tunneling conductance, and thereby the magnetoresistance characteristics, of ferromagnet/superconductor/ferromagnet spin-valve junctions embedding thin superconducting spacers between the either parallel or antiparallel magnetized ferromagnets. We focus on the unique interplay between usual electron tunnelings—that fully determine the magnetoresistance in the normal-conducting state—and the peculiar Andreev reflections in the superconducting state. In the presence of interfacial spin-orbit couplings, special attention needs to be paid to the spin-flip (“unconventional”) Andreev-reflection process that is expected to induce superconducting triplet correlations in proximitized regions. As a transport signature of these triplet pairings, we detect conductance double peaks around the singlet-gap energy, reflecting the competition between the singlet and an additionally emerging triplet gap; the latter is an effective superconducting gap that can be ascribed to the formation of triplet Cooper pairs through interfacial spin-flip scatterings (i.e., to the generation of an effective triplet-pairing term in the order parameter). We thoroughly analyze the Andreev reflections’ role in connection with superconducting magnetoresistance phenomena, and eventually unravel huge conductance and magnetoresistance magnetoanisotropies—easily exceeding their normal-state counterparts by several orders of magnitude—as another experimentally accessible fingerprint of unconventional Andreev reflections. Our results provide an important contribution to establish superconducting magnetic spin valves as an essential ingredient for future superconducting-spintronics concepts.

description: The conclusion of the research emphasizes that glutathione (GSH) is a vital marker of oxidative stress in the cerebellar cortex, influencing essential cellular processes in the brain. Flunitrazepam significantly reduces GSH levels, leading to oxidative stress and potential cerebellar damage, raising concerns about its clinical use. Conversely, Globimetula braunii shows promise in protecting against the oxidative effects of flunitrazepam by maintaining or enhancing GSH concentrations. This suggests potential diagnostic and therapeutic applications for monitoring GSH levels and using Globimetula Braunii in mitigating drug-induced neurological harm. The study calls for further research to explore these protective mechanisms and their clinical relevance.Overall conclusions reveals that cerebellar GSH plays a role in cell signaling, protein function, gene expression, cell differentiation, and proliferation in the brain. in recent years, several studies have analyzed the role of GSH in different neurological diseases, depicting this metabolite as a possible diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target. In this context, Flunitrazepam has become a powerful Xenobiotic compounds that can suppress the level of Glutathione and predispose the brain (Cerebellar cortex ) to heavy damage

description: The scattering amplitude for the longitudinal weak bosons is investigated in the SU(3) gauge-Higgs unification as a function of the scattering energy, the Wilson line phase θ_H and the warp factor. The θ_H-dependence of the amplitude is quite different in the flat and the warped spacetimes. Generically the amplitude is enhanced for θ_H=O(1) in the warped case while it is almost independent of θ_H in the flat case. This indicates the tree-level unitarity is violated in the warped case at a lower scale than that in the flat case.

Głównym powodem skłaniającym do refleksji nad jego propozycjami jest aktualność i odkrywczość wielu aspektów etyki, filozofii społecznej oraz wskazań praktycznych służących kształtowaniu „nowego człowieka”, a także obserwowany renesans jego myśli w dyskusjach i sporach ideowo-światopoglądowych. W filozofii Abramowskiego dominuje pogląd o wyjątkowej roli jednostki w życiu społecznym, realizowany w warunkach całkowitej swobody i niezależności w stosunku do innych, jak też wobec państwa. Organizacją zapewniającą rozwój człowieka jest kooperatywa, której zadaniem miała być stopniowa i systematyczna przebudowa społeczeństwa w duchu braterstwa i poszanowania wolności jednostki.
Role of house leaders in the Canadian House of Commons
Creators: name: Carter, Wendy L.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This thesis deals with the role of House leaders in the organization and conduct of business in the Canadian Parliament. The position of House leader in the parliamentary parties has emerged out of a complexity of factors and pressures placed upon the parliamentary system during the last thirty years. It may now be said that House leaders form the primary communication channel between the political parties concerning the business of the Canadian House of Commons. The adversary system in parliament, reinforced by the traditional position of the opposition, requires that the parties cooperate in organizing the conduct of parliamentary business. The House leaders meet informally and privately to negotiate and to arrange the timing of debates and other matters. The House leaders perform other important duties within their parties. The Government House leader is responsible to the prime minister and cabinet for the overall management of the House, management of the government's legislative schedule, and assistance in the development of legislation. The contemporary Government House leader is also involved in long-range legislative planning. Opposition House leaders keep their parties informed about House activities and perform important strategy and organizational duties. All House leaders are involved in procedural debates and parliamentary reforms. House leaders are appointed from within the parliamentary party and any authority they possess for making interparty agreements comes from the party. That they are normally senior and respected members and have unique contacts with the other House leaders are factors which usually enhance their influence and persuasive powers over the party. The development of the position of House leaders has decreased the influence of party whips; yet the whips remain and the roles of House leaders and party whips may now be seen as complementary. House leaders naturally must operate within the formal rules of the House, and changes in these rules affect the role of the House leaders. The inability to develop a working time allocation mechanism for Commons legislative activity leaves informal communications between the House leaders as the crucial method of scheduling and limiting these debates. The role performed by House leaders has become more significant and it is now recognized that House leaders hold powerful positions in the Canadian House of Commons. As government business increases yet further in amount and complexity the role of House leaders may be expected to become still more significant in the Canadian parliamentary process.

description: Each year many high school girls and boys struggle along or full by the wayside, because for various reasons, cannot adjust themselves. In many cases it affects the personality and becomes real problems. From the school standpoint they are problems because they are failing in work, or seem to be disturbing factors or seem to be physically unfit. Their solution is to work harder or leave, or see the doctor. Beyond all this we know there is an underlying cause, which we are concerned with. This study is an attempt to find out why High School students fall and to what extent physical defects may be a factor.

The spatial distribution of the metals are studied using radial metallicity profiles and 2D metallicity maps of the model clusters as they would be observed by X-ray telescopes like XMM-Newton. Analytical approximations for the mass loss by galactic winds driven by thermal and cosmic ray pressure are derived from the Bernoulli equation and implemented in combined N-body/hydrodynamic cosmological simulations with a semi-analytical galaxy formation model. Observable quantities like the mean metallicity, metallicity profiles, and 2D metal maps of the model clusters are derived from the simulations. We find that galactic winds alone cannot account for the observed metallicity of the ICM. At redshift $z=0$ the model clusters have metallicities originating from galactic winds which are almost a factor of 10 lower than the observed values. For massive, relaxed clusters we find, as in previous studies, a central drop in the metallicity due to a suppression of the galactic winds by the pressure of the ambient ICM. Combining ram-pressure stripping and galactic winds we find radial metallicity profiles of the model clusters which agree qualitatively with observed profiles. Only in the inner parts of massive clusters the observed profiles are steeper than in the simulations. Also the combination of galactic winds and ram-pressure stripping yields too low values for the ICM metallicities. The slope of the redshift evolution of the mean metallicity in the simulations agrees reasonably well with recent observations.

description: Recently, we have derived a generalization of the known canonical fluctuation relation $k_{B}C=β^{2}< δU^{2} >$ between heat capacity $C$ and energy fluctuations, which can account for the existence of macrostates with negative heat capacities $C<0$. In this work, we presented a panoramic overview of direct implications and connections of this fluctuation theorem with other developments of statistical mechanics, such as the extension of canonical Monte Carlo methods, the geometric formulations of fluctuation theory and the relevance of a geometric extension of the Gibbs canonical ensemble that has been recently proposed in the literature.

description: Two descriptions of the architectural constructions, the Chamber of Ylion and the Tabernacle of Hector, have been studied in the present paper. The both were extracted from the medieval Troy History by Guido de Columnis in the Latin and in the illuminated Russian versions. The comparative analysis of the medieval Russian illuminated handwritten History of Troy and of the Latin text of the Historia destructionis Troiae by Guido de Columnis, edited for the Medieval Academy of America by Nathaniel Edward Griffin, is the subject of my present work. In this paper I present the examination of the two fragments from the chapters XXI and XXII of the Troy History, the last passage contains the description of the funeral practice of the Hector body.

description: The aim of this research is discovery of astronomical reasons in orientation of slopes of Egyptian pyramids used as tombs for pharaohs of Ancient Egypt. The article contains results of statistical analysis of change in inclination of slopes of the pyramids (3rd 2nd millennia BC) depending on time of their building. The first year of the corresponding pharaoh’s reign has been accepted, as usually it is considered that building of pyramids ones started during either the first or second year of the reign. On the base of the obtained results a conclusion has been drawn that the average annual change of the angle of slopes of pyramids was close to value of the precession of the equinoxes. The sides were directed to the Sun at culmination, but a day for this procedure was chosen by the acronical rising of some stars after the autumnal equinox. In the course of research days of heliacal and acronical risings of some mythologically important stars have been determined for the first year of pharaohs reign. Within framework of the suggested hypothesis, the received days have been compared with days when the Sun was at culmination at height equal to the angle of slopes of a corresponding pyramid. Such comparison has made possible to discover that the inclination of the slopes of the earliest pyramids was connected with acronical rising of star Betelgeuse that has been connected with Osiris cult. And, the inclination of slopes of pyramids built after the 3rd dynasty of pharaohs was connected with acronical rising of the star Aldebaran that has been connected with Horus cult. And, this choice of this or that star depended on aspiration of a pharaoh to emphasize significance of this or that elite group from Upper Egypt or his belonging to it. On the base of the evidences obtained in the course of research a conclusion about gradual deviation from stellar orientations and transition to solar orientations of pyramids is drawn. The sense of all these actions was ritual one, and not only to guarantee the ascension of the pharaoh to the sky after his death, but above all for sacralization of his power, finding of the divine essence, and maintenance of the Cosmic Order at the beginning of his reign.

SIMCor. Deliverable 7.3: First version of the definition of the input space (TUE, M12)
Creators: name: Huberts, Wouter
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: The deliverable describes the first version of the definition of the input space that will be used to feed the virtual cohort generators. Accurate definition of the input space depends on available clinical data, the model used for virtual cohort generation and model parameter prioritization based on advanced sensitivity analysis techniques. The final models to be used will be part of future deliverables, which also holds for the sensitivity analysis. In this document we will describe the envisioned strategy for input space definition and how this strategy will result in an input distribution that captures realistic aortic valve disease and heart failure patients. The feasibility of the input space definition as envisioned by the project methodology will be supported by preliminary results of virtual cohort generation of aortic valve patients. Here we also discuss how clinical data is transformed into data that can be fed into our virtual cohort generator. This preliminary use case nicely demonstrates our approach but is not yet completely validated. However, it is already integrated into the Virtual Research Environment as a typical example. How integration is done will also be shown. Moreover, we present preliminary results on the geometric input definition of porcine pulmonary arteries.

Public Health Nursing

description: The complete job of being a rural public health nurse seems a stupendous undertaking when viewed so minutely in detail. It calls for good health, the sort that is abounding in vitality and vivacity; nothing short of actually practicing what she preaches will convince the public of the worth-whileness of the nurse's work. If she understands the underlying principles of rural health work, if she endeavors to know her community so that she feels each factor that make it what it is, if she desires to really help the community grow and develop, "She'll be the Nurse, my dear".
Three-point susceptibilities $χ_n(k;t)$ and $χ_n^s(k;t)$: mode-coupling approximation

description: Recently, it was argued that a three-point susceptibility equal to the density derivative of the intermediate scattering function, $χ_n(k;t) = d F(k;t)/d n$, enters into an expression for the divergent part of an integrated four-point dynamic density correlation function of a colloidal suspension [Berthier \textit{et al.}, J. Chem. Phys. \textbf{126}, 184503 (2007)]. We show that, within the mode-coupling theory, the equation of motion for $χ_n(k;t)$ is essentially identical as the equation of motion for the $\mathbf{q}\to 0$ limit of the three-point susceptibility $χ_{\mathbf{q}}(\mathbf{k};t)$ introduced by Biroli \textit{et al.} [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{97}, 195701 (2006)]. We present a numerical solution of the equation of motion for $χ_n(k;t)$. We also derive and numerically solve an equation of motion for the density derivative of the self-intermediate scattering function, $χ_n^s(k;t) = d F^s(k;t)/d n$. We contrast the wave vector dependence of $χ_n(k;t)$ and $χ_n^s(k;t)$.

description: This publication describes three axially symmetric structures of the megalithic type: two on the Balkan Peninsula and one in the Caucasus. First, an attempt is made to give a detailed representation of the buildings in the extent to which this is possible according to available publications. Then the structures are analyzed in terms of megalithic architecture. It is established that the design of their pyramidal roof is unique in the whole world. The analysis allowed us to formulate a complex archaeological problem that still has not found an acceptable solution: in what way rarest and identical engineering solutions occur in two adjacent megalithic areas, but in two mutually very distant epochs. Most likely, the situation described here represents a curious example of an exact technological coincidence in the development of two neighbor megalithic traditions without direct interaction between them.

description: The decline in the death rate from tuberculosis is a matter of gratification to all health workers. There is a renewed effort under way now for the complete eradication of this disease. What part of the public health nurse will play in this campaign will be largely up to her to determine. With adequate knowledge of the disease, skill in nursing and teaching methods, and a willingness to analyze, evaluate, and improve nursing performances, there is a little doubt that the public health nurse can increase her usefulness to the tuberculosis program.
