description: In the paper is presented an invariant quantization procedure of classical mechanics on the phase space over flat configuration space. Then, the passage to an operator representation of quantum mechanics in a Hilbert space over configuration space is derived. An explicit form of position and momentum operators as well as their appropriate ordering in arbitrary curvilinear coordinates is demonstrated. Finally, the extension of presented formalism onto non-flat case and related ambiguities of the process of quantization are discussed.

description: Aging is often accompanied by increases in pain, which may threaten physical health. Successfully managing increased pain requires the ability to switch attention away from the pain and toward adaptive health cognitions and behaviors. However, no study to date has tested how pain interacts with task-switching ability to predict future health in older adults. Additionally, no study has tested whether objective (i.e., task-switching performance) or subjective measures of cognitive ability have a stronger impact on future health.

description: We study the impact of early dark energy (EDE) cosmologies on galaxy properties by coupling high-resolution numerical simulations with semi-analytic modeling (SAM) of galaxy formation and evolution. EDE models are characterized by a non-vanishing high-redshift contribution of dark energy, producing an earlier growth of structures and a modification of large-scale structure evolution. They can be viewed as typical representatives of non-standard dark energy models in which only the expansion history is modified, and hence the impact on galaxy formation is indirect. We show that in EDE cosmologies the predicted space density of galaxies is enhanced at all scales with respect to the standard LCDM scenario, and the corresponding cosmic star formation history and stellar mass density is increased at high-redshift. We compare these results with a set of theoretical predictions obtained with alternative SAMs applied to our reference LCDM simulation, yielding a rough measure of the systematic uncertainty of the models. We find that the modifications in galaxy properties induced by EDE cosmologies are of the same order of magnitude as intra-SAM variations for a standard LCDM realization (unless rather extreme EDE models are considered), suggesting that is difficult to use such predictions alone to disentangle between different cosmological scenarios. However, when independent information on the underlying properties of host dark matter haloes is included, the SAM predictions on galaxy bias may provide important clues on the expansion history and the equation-of-state evolution.

description: The ability to negotiate contracts for a wide range of aspects and to provide services conforming to them is a most pressing need in service-oriented architectures. High-level models of contracts are making their way into the area, but application developers are still left to their own devices when it comes to writing code that will comply with a contract concluded before service provision. At the programming language level, contracts appear as separate concerns that crosscut through application logic. Therefore there is a need for contract analysis tools that extract abstracted models from applications so they become amenable to formal reasoning using formal language techniques. Since its inception, the aim of of FLACOS has been that of bringing together researchers and practitioners working on language- or application-based solutions to these problems through the formalization of contracts, the design of appropriate abstraction mechanisms, and tools and techniques for analysis of contracts, and analysis, testing and monitoring of conformance to contracts by applications.

description: Previously, we have presented the first study to investigate the response of the Jovian thermosphere to transient variations in solar wind dynamic pressure, using a coupled, azimuthally symmetric global circulation model coupled with a simple magnetosphere model. This work (Yates et al., 2013, submitted) described the response of thermospheric flows, momentum sources, and the magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling currents to transient compressions and expansions in the magnetosphere. The present study describes the response of thermospheric heating, cooling and the auroral emissions to the aforementioned transient events. We find that transient compressions and expansions, on time scales <= 3 hours, cause at least a factor of two increase in Joule heating per unit volume. Ion drag significantly changes the kinetic energy of the thermospheric neutrals depending on whether the magnetosphere is compressed or expanded. These processes lead to local temperature variations >= 25 K and a ~2000 TW increase in the total power dissipated in the thermosphere. In terms of auroral processes, transient compressions increase main oval UV emission by a factor of ~4.5 whilst transient expansions increase this main emission by a more modest 37%. Both types of transient event cause shifts in the position of the main oval, of up to 1 deg latitude.

description: Obesity is a chronic disease that compromises the physical and mental health of an increasing proportion of children globally. In high-income countries, prevalence of paediatric obesity is increasing faster in those from marginalised populations such as low-income households, suggesting the disease as one that is largely systemic. Appropriate treatment should be prioritised in these settings to prevent the development of complications and co-morbidities and manage those that already exist. An array of clinical practice guidelines are available for managing overweight and obesity in children and adolescents, but no systematic review has yet compared their quality or synthesised their recommendations. We aimed to narratively review clinical practice guidelines published in English for treating child and adolescent obesity, to identify the highest quality guidelines, and assess similarities, conflicts, and gaps in recommendations. We systematically searched academic databases and grey literature for guidelines published. We used the AGREE II tool to assess the quality, and identified nine high quality guidelines for inclusion in a narrative review of recommendations. Guidelines predominantly recommended the delivery of multi-component behaviour-change interventions aimed at improving nutrition and physical activity. Treatment outcomes were generally focussed on weight, with less emphasis on managing complications or improving quality-of-life. There was no evidence-based consensus on the best mode of delivery, setting, or treatment format. The guidelines rarely included recommendations for addressing the practical or social barriers to behaviour change, such as cooking skills or supervised physical activity. There is insufficient evidence to evaluate pharmaceutical and surgical interventions in children, and these were generally not recommended. It should be noted that this review addressed documents published in English only, and therefore the included guidelines were applicable predominantly to high-resource settings.
Employee orientation: Exploring blended learning strategies to improve learner outcomes and meet organizational goals
Creators: name: Washington, Paul
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2009

description: The problem of effective, efficient and pragmatic solutions involving employee training are compounded when geographic logistics become an issue as organizations grow. Organizations must ensure financial and human resources are allocated to develop the highest impact training strategies at the lowest cost. Training in employee orientation was chosen as a logical starting point to re-think current training models to improve learner outcomes and achieve corporate initiatives. Thus, research involved literature review of basic concepts of learning theories and the integration of theory with pedagogical methods and technological delivery media. The result was a conceptual blended learning model reducing current training time by approximately fifty percent. This model can be revised and adapted as needed for advanced training specifications.

description: Abstract 
Antibiotic resistance poses a daunting challenge to the effective treatment of tuberculosis, a global health threat caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In this study, we investigate the role of PknL kinase in antibiotic resistance mechanisms in M. tuberculosis and explore its potential as a therapeutic target. PknL is a serine/threonine kinase that plays a crucial role in regulating cell wall biosynthesis, cell division, and stress response pathways, making it a key player in the survival and persistence of M. tuberculosis. This  research study  current literature on the molecular mechanisms underlying antibiotic resistance in M. tuberculosis and highlight the emerging significance of PknL in this context. PknL has been shown to influence the expression of essential genes associated with antibiotic resistance, such as those involved in efflux pumps and cell wall integrity. Furthermore, PknL-mediated signaling pathways can lead to the development of drug-tolerant persister cells, further exacerbating treatment challenges.To address the growing concern of antibiotic resistance in M. tuberculosis, we propose strategies to modulate PknL kinase activity as a targeted intervention. This includes the development of small-molecule inhibitors that selectively target PknL and potentially disrupt its role in antibiotic resistance mechanisms. Additionally, we explore the potential of combinatory therapies that incorporate PknL inhibitors alongside existing antibiotics to enhance treatment efficacy and reduce the emergence of resistance. this research underscores the significance of PknL kinase in antibiotic resistance within M. tuberculosis and highlights its potential as a promising therapeutic target. A deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms involving PknL may lead to innovative approaches for combating tuberculosis and mitigating the global burden of antibiotic resistance.

description: Independent restaurants are important in communities. Not only can restaurants provide the basic need of an enjoyable meal but restaurants also serve as gathering places for social and recreational purposes. People can celebrate special occasions, spend time with family or friends, and/or enjoy the atmosphere at restaurants. A restaurateur must have a solid business plan and understanding of what it means to run a restaurant business in both strong and weak economies. Lack of job security has many Americans leaving the corporate world to start their own businesses and make their own future (Cohn, 2009). According to the U.S. Small Business Administration, seven out of ten of these new employer firms however last only at least years and roughly half survive five years. These grim statistics prove that in any business, preparation and research are a necessity before embarking into a business venture.

description: Targeting the correct customer is one of the most important components to owning and running a successful company. To have a great product that is marketed to the wrong customer, will result in lost profits and missed opportunities.
Over the last 20 years Las Vegas has seen two drastic changes in its target customer and visitor demographics. By the late 1980's gaming revenue in Las Vegas was down as other areas in the country started to legalize gambling. In an attempt to stimulate visitor numbers the city was reinvented in the image of Disney. Themed hotels such as the Luxor and Excalibur emerged allowing Las Vegas to market itself as a place for adults to gamble while their children played at theme parks such as the one built by the MGM Grand.
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the current visitor demographics of the Las Vegas market, to determine whether or not these customers are the best type of customers to maximize hotel profits.

description: We have recently shown that continuous-spin particles (CSPs) have covariant single-emission amplitudes with the requisite properties to mediate long-range forces. CSPs, the most general massless particle type consistent with Lorentz symmetry, are characterized by a scale ρ. Here, we demonstrate a helicity correspondence at CSP energies larger than ρ, in which these amplitudes are well approximated by the familiar ones for particles of helicity 0, 1, or 2. These properties follow from Lorentz invariance. We also construct tree-level multi-emission and CSP-exchange amplitudes that are unitary, appropriately analytic, and consistent with helicity-0 correspondence. We propose sewing rules from which these amplitudes and others can be obtained. We also exhibit a candidate CSP-graviton matrix element, which shows that the Weinberg-Witten theorem does not apply to CSPs. These results raise the surprising possibility that the known long-range forces might be mediated by CSPs with very small ρ, rather than by helicity 1 and 2 particles.

Hotel restaurant concept selection considerations: Which factors to take into account?
Creators: name: Bakker, Michiel A.
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2006

description: Hotels fulfill a variety of roles in our society. For many travelers and vacationers, a hotel is a home away from home. A wide range of social and meeting activities are held in a hotel such as weddings, meetings, tradeshows, conventions and family reunions. Hotels provide employment for many and support the local community through the collection of taxes such as sales, payroll and hotel. Various facilities and services can be offered or housed in a hotel such as guestrooms, meeting rooms, spa and fitness facilities, restaurants, bars, casinos, parking facilities and business centers. Depending on the location and function of a hotel, its facilities can be geared primarily towards hotel clientele only (for example in a resort in a remote location) or the hotel and its services can be marketed to a combination of hotel guests and local residents and consumers (individuals and businesses). The latter may be the case with a business hotel in downtown Manhattan for example. When a hotel operator follows a strategy of serving different market segments concurrently, he can be faced with difficult questions and decisions about how to develop, design and manage the hotel's facilities and service offerings. Many decisions about the programming and development of a hotel will impact the hotel operation for many years to come and will therefore have a significant impact on the success potential of the hotel. Should a hotel have 10,000 or 15,000 square feet of meeting space? Should the hotel have one or two restaurants and what concepts should these restaurants be all about? With the role of hotel restaurants changing in the United States and an apparent need for hotel restaurants to become more competitive and distinct in the overall restaurant marketplace, ensuring that the appropriate restaurant concept is chosen for a hotel restaurant site is becoming more important. As the hotel restaurant marketplace is evolving, there may be an opportunity to identify and review which criteria a hotel owner or operator can consider in this hotel restaurant concept selection process. This will be done through a literature review of the restaurant concept selection and development process as well as the restaurant and retail site selection process. Following a description of the purpose of the paper including the research objective, its justification as well as the constraints of the project, the findings of the review of the literature will be presented. Conclusions will be discussed and recommendations will be made for hotel operators faced with the challenge of determining which concept to choose for a hotel restaurant project in the final part of this paper.

description: We investigate the influence of close neighbor galaxies on the properties of supernovae (SNe) and their host galaxies using 56 SNe located in pairs of galaxies with different levels of star formation (SF) and nuclear activity. The statistical study of SN hosts shows that there is no significant difference between morphologies of hosts in our sample and the larger general sample of SN hosts in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 8 (DR8). The mean distance of type II SNe from nuclei of hosts is greater by about a factor of 2 than that of type Ibc SNe. The distributions and mean distances of SNe are consistent with previous results compiled with the larger sample. For the first time it is shown that SNe Ibc are located in pairs with significantly smaller difference of radial velocities between components than pairs containing SNe Ia and II. We consider this as a result of higher star formation rate (SFR) of these closer systems of galaxies. SN types are not correlated with the luminosity ratio of host and neighbor galaxies in pairs. The orientation of SNe with respect to the preferred direction toward neighbor galaxy is found to be isotropic and independent of kinematical properties of the galaxy pair.

description: The primary goal of this paper is to further explore the applications of yield management in the spa industry and identify the techniques that are currently used by spa operators. The paper will also evaluate the most popular spa software systems utilized. Furthermore, the paper will investigate the existence of yield management features in the current spa software systems. In addition an effort will be carried out to examine the spa patrons' perception on yield management strategies in the spa environment.

description: Implicit attitudes toward alcohol predict drinking among adults and adolescents. If implicit attitudes reflect associations learned through direct experience with drinking, then they may only predict drinking among individuals who have previously consumed alcohol. In contrast, if implicit attitudes reflect indirect experience through social messages, they may predict future drinking even among individuals with no drinking experience. This study tested whether implicit attitudes predict initiation of drinking for the first time, and whether parents’ and friends’ norms toward alcohol influence the development of implicit attitudes.
Neutralino dark matter confronted by the LHC constraints on Electroweak SUSY signals

description: The supersymmetric particles (sparticles) belonging exclusively to the electroweak sector of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) may hold the key to the observed dark matter relic density in the universe even if all strongly interacting sparticles are very heavy. The importance of the light EW sparticles in DM physics and in producing spectacular collider signals is emphasized. It is shown that even the preliminary data on the direct searches of these sparticles at the LHC, significantly constrain the parameter space of the MSSM compatible with the observed relic density and provide useful hints about the future search prospects. If in addition to the electroweak sparticles the gluinos are also within the reach of the LHC experiments, then the gluino mass limits in the light slepton scenario obtained via the canonical jets + $\met$ channel may be relaxed by as much as 25 $%$ compared to the existing limits. But the corresponding same sign dilepton (SSD) + jets + $\met$ signal will yield enhanced limits competitive with the strongest limits currently available. This is illustrated with the help of benchmark scenarios at the generator level using PYTHIA. If the gluinos are just beyond the current reach of the LHC, then the generic n-lepton + m-jets + missing energy signal may discriminate between different DM producing mechanisms by comparing the signals corresponding to different values of n. This is illustrated by simulating the signals for n = 0 and n = 2 (the SSD signal).

Statistical Interparticle Potential of an Ideal Gas of Non-Abelian Anyons

description: We determine and study the statistical interparticle potential of an ideal system of non-Abelian Chern-Simons (NACS) particles, comparing our results with the corresponding results of an ideal gas of Abelian anyons. In the Abelian case, the statistical potential depends on the statistical parameter and it has a "quasi-bosonic" behaviour for statistical parameter in the range (0,1/2) (non-monotonic with a minimum) and a "quasi-fermionic" behaviour for statistical parameter in the range (1/2,1) (monotonically decreasing without a minimum). In the non-Abelian case the behavior of the statistical potential depends on the Chern- Simons coupling and the isospin quantum number: as a function of these two parameters, a phase diagram with quasi-bosonic, quasi-fermionic and bosonic-like regions is obtained and investigated. Finally, using the obtained expression for the statistical potential, we compute the second virial coefficient of the NACS gas, which correctly reproduces the results available in literature.

title: High prices of new drugs: we are ready to do whatever it takes

description: Debates  over pricing  and  reimbursement  of  new  and  innovative  drugshave  become  increasingly dominated by the excessive high prices and the challenges to the sustainability of the public expenditures. This paper examines the phenomenon of raising prices through the examples of oncology and hepatitis C drugs. In many casesthe cost is not related to the benefit promised by the treatment. The costs of R&D of a drug seem to be shrouded in a cloud of mystery, while pharmaceutical companies are still struggling to provide  their  real  R&D  costs.  The  hostage  theory  is  described  here  in  order  to  explain  the  lack  of instruments  which  are  currently  applied  to  evaluate  a  new  drug.  Finally  some  tentative  algoritms  are revised,  and  the  need  for  a  combination  of  cost-effectiveness  and  budget  impact  is  proposed,  trying  to combine the private interest with the public interest.

title: Special education teacher burnout: the effects of efficacy expectations and perceptions of job responsibilities
Creators: name: Berry, Rachel L.
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2011

description:
Special education teachers work with some of the neediest students in our nation's public schools and experience higher levels of attrition and emotional burnout than those teachers who work with the general student population. The purpose of this study was to examine a variety of teacher belief variables and job characteristics to help understand the phenomenon of emotional exhaustion experienced by special educators. Results indicated that 43% of the variability in the level of burnout reported by special education teachers can be attributed to differences in levels of outcome efficacy, the amount of experience teaching special education, levels of self-efficacy, and the level of perceived agreement with families about their job responsibilities. These findings indicate that rates of burnout and attrition among special education teachers might be decreased by clarifying or altering job expectations to increase teacher perceptions of agreement with others and their efficacy beliefs.

description: We study the background cosmology of two extensions of dRGT massive gravity. The first is variable mass massive gravity, where the fixed graviton mass of dRGT is replaced by the expectation value of a scalar field. We ask whether self-inflation can be driven by the self-accelerated branch of this theory, and we find that, while such solutions can exist for a short period, they cannot be sustained for a cosmologically useful time. Furthermore, we demonstrate that there generally exist future curvature singularities of the "big brake" form in cosmological solutions to these theories. The second extension is the covariant coupling of galileons to massive gravity. We find that, as in pure dRGT gravity, flat FRW solutions do not exist. Open FRW solutions do exist -- they consist of a branch of self-accelerating solutions that are identical to those of dRGT, and a new second branch of solutions which do not appear in dRGT.
