description: Maria Helena Charula de Sousa (1922- 1999) was born in Mozambique and in 1984 she founded a philosophical and spiritualist group in Portugal. The institution’s activities included some religious syncretism, between the teaching of modern postural yoga doctrine and practices, Helena Blavatsky’s Theosophy and Kardec’s Spiritism.The data obtained for this study were collected through ethnographic interviews, conducted in 2019, and through participant observation over ten years (1989-1999). This article aims to explore the formation of belief structures related to Paramahansa Yogananda’s kriyā yoga and its importance in the formation of Maria Helena Charula de Sousa’s philosophical and spiritualist thinking.Evidence emerged in our study of the occurrence of metamorphoses in belief structures, operated through religious syncretism’s that, in the specific case, anchored their development in theories of Indian yoga and contributed to the dissemination of the practices of modern postural yoga in Portugal, as an option available in the universe of contemporary spirituality.
title: An Examination of the Concept of Need and its Operational Uses in Applied Social Research
Creators: name: Jenkins, Margaret Elizabeth
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1994

description: The concept of need is a central one in the development of social services and other aspects of social policy. Despite its significance, there is a lack of clarity about, and common understanding of, the concept. Concepts are abstractions from reality, and their use requires some shared understanding. A study of the literature shows that there are diverse elements to the meaning and use of the concept: needs may relate to individuals, groups, societies; they may be identified 'objectively' as universals, yet experienced subjectively in cultural contexts which vary in time and space. Social policy is, among other things, concerned with the way in which society acknowledges and responds to identified individual and social needs. It is developed and implemented through the political processes of government, at various levels. In this context the diverse meanings of the concept of need may be used; the extent to which understanding is shared is debatable. This poses problems for the researcher working to identify, survey or measure need in the social policy context. Operational definitions of need will have to be developed; they will be influenced by the political context in which the research is being undertaken. All such definitions will have political implications. Yet many research studies are carried out without acknowledging the nature or implications of the political context on their approach to their research, on their operational use of the concept need, or consequently on their results. Such results often carry a spurious validity and credibility. Researchers working in the social policy context should acknowledge its political nature, at the least try to present and explicate their methodology, including in particular the conceptualization process, to provide readers and users with the basis for evaluating their results.

description: A procedure is developed and tested to enforce synchronicity in a family of Stuart-Landau oscillators, coupled through a symmetric network. The proposed method exploits network plasticity, as an inherent non autonomous drive. More specifically, we assume that the system is initially confined on a network which turns the underlying homogeneous synchronous state unstable. A properly engineered network can be always generated, which links the same set of nodes, and allows for synchronicity to be eventually restored, upon performing continuously swappings, at a sufficient rate, between the two aforementioned networks. The result is cast in rigorous terms, as follows an application of the average theorem and the critical swapping rate determined analytically.

OCCURRENCE. — Ashikajima Fm.
DESCRIPTION
Trilete microspore. Amb rounded triangular. The laesurae are slightly undulating, bordered by lips, and extend to the ⅔ of the spore radius. Exine canaliculate. The proximal face is ornamented by 3 sets of 4 muri parallel to the equator and to the laesurae. The distal face shows 8 to 10 muri, 3 to 5 µm wide and separated by less than 0.5 µm, which are parallel among them and to one side (Fig. 11). The exine is thick at the equator (about 3 µm). The ornamentation of this form corresponds to the type VI-B defined by Krutzsch (1963). Equatorial diameter = 40-55 µm.
BOTANICAL AFFINITIES Schizaeales, Anemiaceae. Couper(1958) suggested an affinity of Cicatricosisporites with spores produced by Ruffordia Seward, and Skog (1980, 1982) an affinity with Pelletixia Watson & Hill (Schizaeaceae).

description: The WHO classifies H. pylori as a critical public health issue. H. pylori is a gram-negative bacterium that causes infections in the stomach lining, contributing to conditions such as gastritis, peptic ulcers, and gastric cancer. The emergence of multidrug resistance in H. pylori presents a major obstacle in treatment, resulting in ineffective therapies and prolonged infections. The lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis pathway plays a crucial role in the survival of H. pylori. UDP-3-O-acyl-N-acetylglucosamine deacetylase (LpxC) is an essential enzyme, and its crucial role in disease pathogenesis has positioned LpxC as a highly promising druggable target for targeting H. pylori infection. In this study, we utilized structure-based virtual high-throughput screening of phytochemicals to discover potential inhibitors of LpxC. The selection of hits was initially based on their compliance with the Lipinski rule of 5, along with their toxicological, pharmacokinetic properties, and other drug-like attributes. This was followed by 100 ns molecular dynamics simulations in triplicate and MM/PBSA based binding free energy calculations. These findings indicated that Panicutine interacts strongly and enhances the stability of the LpxC structure, suggesting it as potential inhibitor of LpxC. The outcomes point to future studies to enhance their effectiveness as innovative and cost-effective treatments for H. pylori infections.

description: The basis of many rural or nonmetropolitan development strategies is job creation. This is true whether the goal is a more evenly distributed population, increased income, higher overall standards of living, decreased unemployment1 an expanded economic base, or a combination of these goals. Manufacturing industry traditionally has been viewed as the most effective vehicle to create jobs and establish the basis for long term growth. This bias in favor of manufacturing derives from its role as the major source of economic and employment growth in modern Western development. The basic assumption behind most job creation strategies at the national, state and local level is that this will continue to be the case. However, there are indications that this focus will not prove as fruitful in the future.

description: We present a novel test of general relativity (GR): measuring the geometric component of the time delay due to gravitational lensing. GR predicts that photons and gravitational waves follow the same geodesic paths and thus experience the same geometric time delay. We show that for typical systems, the time delays are tens of seconds, and thus can dominate over astrophysical delays in the timing of photon emission. For the case of GW 170817, we use a multi-plane lensing code to evaluate the time delay due to four massive halos along the line of sight. From literature mass and distance measurements of these halos, we establish at high confidence (significantly greater than 5 sigma) that the gravitational waves of GW 170817 underwent gravitational deflection to arrive within 1.7 seconds of the photons.

title: The Experience of Stress and Support Amongst First Time Mothers.
Creators: name: Croghan, Rosaleen Anne
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1992

description: The research aim was to examine the experience of stress and support in mothering, to place that experience in its social and relational context and to examine the way in which such experiences are interpreted. In order to do this the study drew on the accounts of 25 first time mothers from a range of social and relational circumstances. Of these, 15 came from relatively stable backgrounds, and 10 from ‘disrupted’ backgrounds, (having spent at least 3 years in residential care before the age of 16). These 2 groups of mothers were chosen because they were likely to have very different experiences of maternal stress and of social support. The research draws primarily on mothers’ accounts in order to understand the way in which they make sense of their experience of stress and support. A time use diary was also used as a way of measuring the contribution of members of mother’s support networks. The analysis focused on the interaction between features in the mothers’ social and economic context, the relationships which surround them and dominant discourses of maternal behaviour and of gender roles, all of which were seen as likely define both the extent of maternal stress and mothers’ interpretations of both stress and support. The research also looked at the role of professional intervention in defining the parameters of maternal responsibility and in relieving parental stress, and at the differences between professional and maternal perspectives on stress and support. The analysis moved from treating the notions of stress and support as relatively discrete and quantifiable variables towards seeing these as intimately bound up with the ways in which they are constructed in response to the social and ideological context in which they occur.

description: The study of topological bandstructures is an active area of research in condensed matter physics and beyond. Here, we combine recent progress in this field with developments in machine-learning, another rising topic of interest. Specifically, we introduce an unsupervised machine-learning approach that searches for and retrieves paths of adiabatic deformations between Hamiltonians, thereby clustering them according to their topological properties. The algorithm is general as it does not rely on a specific parameterization of the Hamiltonian and is readily applicable to any symmetry class. We demonstrate the approach using several different models in both one and two spatial dimensions and for different symmetry classes with and without crystalline symmetries. Accordingly, it is also shown how trivial and topological phases can be diagnosed upon comparing with a generally designated set of trivial atomic insulators.

We develop a hierarchical multi-task architecture, which delivers a multi-layer representation of sentence meaning (i.e., Dialogue Acts and Frame-like structures). The architecture is a hierarchy of self-attention mechanisms and BiLSTM encoders followed by CRF tagging layers. We describe a variety of experiments, showing that our approach obtains promising results on a dataset annotated with Dialogue Acts and Frame Semantics. Moreover, we demonstrate its applicability to a different, publicly available NLU dataset annotated with domain-specific intents and corresponding semantic roles, providing overall performance higher than state-of-the-art tools such as RASA, Dialogflow, LUIS, and Watson. For example, we show an average 4.45% improvement in entity tagging F-score over Rasa, Dialogflow and LUIS.

Data from superconducting gravimeters rule out such objects moving inside the Earth unless their mass $m_D$ and or orbital radius $a$ are very small so that $m_D\, a < 1.2\times 10^{-13}M_\oplus R_\oplus$.

description: Abstract

This research examines how the number of nurses on duty affects patient outcomes in healthcare settings. Adequate nurse staffing is necessary for high-quality patient care and good outcomes. This paper reviews current studies on staffing levels and their effects on patient safety, satisfaction, and treatment quality. The research uses a quantitative approach and statistical analysis to find out how the number of nurses on staff affects patient safety, happiness, and care. According to research, understaffing increases medical errors, patient issues, and death. However, proper nurse staffing has been related to improved patient outcomes and healthcare management. These findings of the research include the implications for healthcare policy and practice, with a focus on prioritizing nurse staffing to optimize patient outcomes.

title: Predictors of Milk Production in Lactating Women
Creators: name: Whiteley, Shirley
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1994

description: The aim of this study is to determine whether breast milk intake by the newborn infant is predicted by the growth in the mother’s breast volume during pregnancy. The relationship between breast milk intake, suckling time, birth weight and maternal breast volume were measured and also other measures of fat accumulation.

 Volumetric breast measurements were made on primiparous and multiparous women at 3 and 8 months pregnant and at 7 days post partum using adaptations of the methods of Hytten (1954) and Milligan et al. (1975). The mother’s body mass index and the upper arm, forearm, thigh and calf circumferences were measured during pregnancy and post partum. The infant’s spontaneous milk intake was measured on days 8 and 9 post partum by weighing the infant before and after each feed over 48 hours, using a Sartorius 3865 MP portable Top Pan Balance fitted with a baby weighing pan and coupled to a Sartorius Universal Printer.

 Although milk intake was reliably predicted by suckling time, as shown in previous studies, there was no significant relationship between breast enlargement and milk intake, contrary to the finding of Hytten (1954). The discrepancy is probably attributable to his use of breast pumping to measure breast milk production. In the study repeated in this thesis, the infant’s natural milk intake was measured, and was found not to be related to the mother’s breast enlargement during pregnancy. Enlargement of limb girth was detected only for the thigh; that of the arm did not change.

description: Agriculture contributes significantly to global Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions, but there are many technologies and practices that have the potential to significantly mitigate these GHG emissions. Technology adoption research, through a better understanding of the individual adoption decision can help policymakers realise this potential via better policy design and targeting. The attitude of potential adopters is one important aspect influencing this decision. Identifying groups or typologies of farmers with similar attitudes and their associated farm/farmer characteristics can inform policy to encourage adoption of GHG mitigation practices. Using new data from a face-to-face nationally representative survey, this paper identifies five farmer typologies based on attitudes towards a range of farming/non-farming issues. It considers their impact on the adoption decision, before identifying underlying farm/farmer characteristics to such farmer typologies to allow for a number of recommendations to help policy design.

However, optical luminosity may not be a good indicator of photoionizing luminosity for extremely radio-loud AGNs because the jets usually contribute significantly to the optical continuum. Therefore, the black hole masses derived for blazar-type AGNs with this method are probably overestimated. Here we first derived a tight empirical relation between the BLR size and the H$_β$ emission line luminosity, $R(\rm{light-days})= 24.05(L_{H_β}/10^{42} ergs s^{-1})^{0.68}$, from a sample of 34 AGNs with the BLR size estimated with the reverberation mapping technique. Then we applied this relation to estimate the black hole masses of some AGNs and found that for many extremely radio-loud AGNs the black hole masses obtained with the $R-L_{H_β}$ relation are systematically lower than those derived previously with the $R-L_{5100Å}$ relation, while for radio-quiet and slightly radio-loud AGNs the results obtained with these two methods are almost the same. The difference of black hole masses estimated with these two relations increases with the radio-loudness for extremely radio-loud AGNs, which is consistent with the fact that their equivalent widths of H$_β$ emission line become smaller at higher radio-loudness. If the small H$_β$ equivalent widths of extremely radio-loud AGNs are indeed caused by the beaming effect, we argue that the optical emission line luminosity may be a better tracer of ionizing luminosity for blazar-type AGNs and the black hole mass derived with the $R-L_{H_β}$ relation are probably more accurate.

description: Non-equilibrium photon correlations of coherently excited single quantum systems can reveal their internal quantum dynamics and provide spectroscopic access. Here we propose and discuss the fundamentals of a coherent photon coincidence spectroscopy based on the application of laser pulses with variable delay and the detection of an time-averaged two-photon coincidence rate. For demonstration, two simple but important cases, i.e., an exciton - biexciton in a quantum dot and two coupled quantum emitters, are investigated based on quantum dynamics simulations demonstrating that this nonlinear spectroscopy reveals information specific to the particular single quantum system.

description: One of the many unresolved questions that revolves around the Covid-19 pandemic is whether local outbreaks can depend on ambient conditions like temperature and relative humidity. In this paper, we develop a model that tries to explain and describe the temperature and relative humidity sensitivity of respiratory droplets and their possible connection in determining viral outbreaks. The model has two parts. First, we model the growth rate of the infected population based on a reaction mechanism - the final equations of which are similar to the well-known SIR model. The advantage of modeling the pandemic using the reaction mechanism is that the rate constants have sound physical interpretation. The infection rate constant is derived using collision rate theory and shown to be a function of the respiratory droplet lifetime. In the second part, we have emulated the respiratory droplets responsible for disease transmission as salt solution droplets and computed their evaporation time accounting for droplet cooling, heat and mass transfer and finally crystallization of the salt. The model output favourably compares with the experimentally obtained evaporation characteristics of levitated droplets of pure water and salt solution, respectively, ensuring fidelity of the model. Droplet evaporation/desiccation time is indeed dependent on ambient temperature and relative humidity, considered at both outdoor and indoor conditions. Since the droplet evaporation time determines the infection rate constant, ambient temperature and relative humidity are shown to impact the outbreak growth rates.

DESCRIPTION
Trilete microspore. Amb triangular with convex sides.Tops are slightly raised. The laesurae are thin, raised, slightly undulating, and bordered by lips in the contact area. Exine cicatricose. On the proximal face, we can observe 3 sets of 4 muri which can fork in each interradial area. Those muri often roll up slightly before joining with the laesurae. The distal face shows muri which form triangles centered on the distal pole; however, those muri are undulating and intersect the bisecting line, alternating from one to another (Fig. 11). Equatorial diameter = 40-60 µm.

description: Previous studies demonstrate the existence of spatial heterogeneity in the demand for ecosystem services (ES), especially by showing spatial discounting (namely, distance decay) and the effect of substitute sites. Our study adds to this literature by analyzing diverse ways of modeling these two effects and applying them to a scattered ecosystem which provides various ES. For this purpose, novel spatial approaches using different discounting factors and incorporating the presence of substitutes (density-based vs. area-based indexes) have been tested. The analysis is based on a discrete choice experiment (DCE) focusing on the estimation of willingness to pay (WTP) for the ES provided by olive groves in Andalusia (southern Spain). For the econometric specification, we use random parameter logit models in preference space to assess the performance of the proposed spatial indexes. The results show that the introduction of these spatial indexes significantly improves the fit of the models, with the best outcome found for the area-based index combined with the inverse of the distance. In addition, differences are found depending on the ES. For biodiversity and soil conservation (i.e., predominantly use values), a positive relationship between WTP and the spatial index is found, implying that the larger the nearby olive grove area, the larger individuals’ WTP, while the opposite is found for carbon sequestration (i.e., predominantly non-use value). These results have important implications for the design of public policies aimed at improving the agricultural provision of ES.

description: We provide a sustainability assessment of Spanish agriculture at provincial scale using a multidimensional set of indicators selected according to established frameworks for sustainable development, their relevance in the Spanish context and data availability. Results point to the existence of four clusters of provinces according to their performance in terms of agricultural sustainability. Higher economic sustainability in provincial agriculture seems to be mostly associated to more intensive use of agricultural labour and agricultural machinery and where wealth growth is faster. Social sustainability seems to be linked to higher diversification of economic activities and quality productions under PDO and PGI. Best environmental sustainability is achieved where the extension of agricultural land is larger, where less agricultural area is burned, and where there is better carbon stock and sequestration by agricultural ecosystems. It is expected that results could improve policy coherence and decision- making for more sustainable agricultural systems in Spanish regions.

description: We show that a honeycomb circle packing in $\R^2$ with a linear gap defect cannot be completely saturated, no matter how narrow the gap is. The result is motivated by an open problem of G. Fejes Tóth, G. Kuperberg, and W. Kuperberg, which asks whether of a honeycomb circle packing with a linear shift defect is completely saturated. We also show that an fcc sphere packing in $\R^3$ with a planar gap defect is also not completely saturated.

description: We devise a constant-factor approximation algorithm for the maximization version of the edge-disjoint paths problem if the supply graph together with the demand edges form a planar graph. By planar duality this is equivalent to packing cuts in a planar graph such that each cut contains exactly one demand edge. We also show that the natural linear programming relaxations have constant integrality gap, yielding an approximate max-multiflow min-multicut theorem.

description: Smaller-scale farms in the US are in a tenuous position as they face rising production costs and costs to comply with regulations. Farmland conversion is threatening the vitality of many rural communities. However, over two-thirds of the agritourism operations in California that participated in this study are sustainability motivated; they are seeking economic, social and environmental benefits by operating agritourism enterprises. These sustainability motivated agritourism farms are demographically different and operate differently when compared to other agritourism farms in California. Unlike the European Union, there are few government programs or regulations in the United States that strengthen agritourism opportunities. However, government support for agritourism appears to be growing in California as public interest in local food and sustainable agriculture increases. Collaboration through coordinated promotional efforts and networking is very beneficial to agritourism farms in California.
