Where words meet The Word : an exploration of a theopoetic paradigm for ministry of word (2017)

Reader ministry in the Church of England and in Wales accounts for a significant
percentage of licensed ministry being offered particularly in parishes and chaplaincies.
However, when working with Reader candidates and licensed ministers with responsibility
for formational education, it became apparent that very little has been written about this
ministry from a theological or vocational perspective. It has been the intention of this
research to overcome this gap in knowledge and understanding in a way that adds to the
small corpus of work about Reader ministry in general, explores a theology of ministry of
word in particular and improves my own practice and thus the quality of formational
education offered to the Readers among whom I work.
An inductive research project was designed incorporating a co-operative research group
and a conversational form of interviews to investigate the possibility of a theopoetic
paradigm for ministry of word which might then inform the practice of Reader education.
The research group’s phases of reflection and action resulted in the emergence of a
number of key topics. Interviews were transcribed and presented in the form of found
poems. Topics and poems were then examined, themes grouped and related to further
literature. The resulting theopoetic paradigm emerged from this interpretation of the data.
The conclusion is that it is possible to communicate theological and vocational
understanding of Reader ministry of word in terms of a theopoetic paradigm which is
trinitarian in nature; creative, embodied and transformative and expressed through the
lens of Gerard Manley Hopkins’ concepts of inscape, instress and selving. This paradigm
contributes to theological and practical understanding of lay ministry of word and to
research methods in pastoral theology and poetics.
Towards a full 3D MR parameter quantification by means of (demodulated) off-resonance insensitive balanced SSFP (2012)

Purpose/Introduction: Quantitative MR parameter mapping has been demonstrated to allow for improved diagnosis and staging of diseases[1]. In this work, a novel procedure for the simultaneous quantification of the relaxation times T1, T2, the relative spin-density PD and the off-resonance frequency Δω is proposed. To this end a series of different phase-cycled 3D-bSSFP measurements are employed. The contrast behavior of the bSSFP sequence depends on both T1 and T2 and varies strongly with the applied phase-cycle and the local off-resonance frequency. We show, that the data can be numerically fitted to the bSSFP signal equation allowing for the simultaneous extraction of T1, T2, PD and Δω. An advantage of this approach is that it provides an intrinsic compensation for bSSFP off-resonance effects. The methodology is validated in a phantom study and the applicability is demonstrated in-vivo. Subjects and Methods: A series of 3D-bSSFP-experiments with different phase-cycles are acquired. The corresponding signal equation is well known[2] and has been shown to resemble an ellipse-equation[3]. By fitting the data numerically onto the ellipse signal-equation T1, T2, PD and the local offresonance frequency Δω for each voxel in the 3D image can be obtained. Phantom experiments were performed on containers doped with different Gd-concentrations to provide a wide range of T1- and T2-values. In addition, in-vivo brain data has been acquired from a volunteers with an isotropic resolution of 1.3x1.3x1.3mm³ within 21min. Results: The obtained phantom parameter maps show good agreement with reference values. A comparison is depicted in the Fig.1. The parameter maps do not suffer from banding-artifacts due to “off-resonant”-spins despite the relatively long TR. In contrast to other methods T2-values small as 10 to 20ms can be measured in high accuracy. The in-vivo data in Fig.2 shows accurate T1, T2 as well as PD and Δω (not shown) maps. Off-resonance effects, usually present in the frontal cortex, are compensated. Discussion/Conclusion: A novel method for parameter quantification has been presented. The method is based on a single bSSFP-sequence with fixed TR and a single flip-angle. Only the phase-cycle is changed during the measurement. We have shown that full 3D-MR-parameter mapping in high isotropic resolution is feasible. We hypothesize that significant scan-time reductions can be achieved by employing acceleration techniques such as parallel imaging or Compressed Sensing, making the method an promising candidate for clinical applications.
Test method to determine durability of concrete under combined environmental actions and mechanical load (2012)

Concrete samples of larger size (10 cm × 10 cm × 40 cm) are chosen so that 5-20 mm diameter stone and rebar can be used in concrete samples. A pieshaped load sensor is used to control the compressive load at desired value (Fig. 1).
Cooperatively exfoliated fluorinated graphene with full-color emission (2012)

We report a novel and effective method to prepare fluorinated graphene sheets (FGS) by the cooperative exfoliation of graphite fluoride using cetyl-trimethyl-ammonium bromide and dopamine. This facile, scalable preparation route results in wide (about 2 μm in width), long (at least 3 μm in length) and ultrathin (1–2 layers) FGS with uniform morphology. The chemical composition of FGS was characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The obtained FGS exhibits full-color emission when excited by near ultraviolet (NUV) rays, suggesting its potential applications in luminescence devices, such as NUV-pumped FGS-based flexible light-emitting diodes.
Efficient nutrient removal from swine manure in a tubular biofilm photo-bioreactor using algae-bacteria consortia (2008)

Concentrated animals feeding operations (CAFOs) often pose a negative environmental impact due to the uncontrolled spreading of manure into soils that ends up in the release of organic matter and nutrients into water bodies. Conventional aerobic methods treating CAFOs wastewater require intensive oxygenation, which significantly increases the operational costs. The alternative proposed in this research is the application of micro-algae based systems by taking advantage of the cost-effective in situ oxygenation via photosynthesis. A 4.9 L enclosed tubular biofilm photo-bioreactor was inoculated with an algal-bacterial consortium formed by the micro-algae Chlorella sorokiniana and a mixed bacterial culture from an activated sludge process. C. sorokiniana delivers the O(2) necessary to accomplish both organic matter and ammonium oxidation. The reactor was fed with diluted swine wastewater containing 180, 15 and 2,000 mg/L of NH(4) (+)-N, soluble P and total COD, respectively. The photo-bioreactor exhibited good and sustained nutrient removal efficiencies (up to 99% and 86% for NH(4) (+) and PO(4) (3-), respectively) while total COD was removed up to 75% when the biofilm was properly established. Liquid superficial velocities up to 0.4 m/s (achieved by culture broth recirculation) hindered the formation of a stable biofilm, while operation at velocities lower than 0.1 m/s supported stable process performance. The high shear stress imposed by the centrifugal recirculation pump disintegrated the large aggregates detached from the biofilm, which resulted in a poor settling performance and therefore poor COD removal efficiencies. Enclosed biofilm photo-bioreactors therefore offer a potentially more economical alternative to conventional tertiary treatments process.
Arginine-Vasotocin, a Synthetic Analogue of the Posterior Pituitary Hormones Containing the Ring of Oxytocin and the Side Chain of Vasopressin (1958)

The synthesis of oxytocin (I), arginine-vasopressin (2)) and lysine-vasopressin (3-5) has opened the way for the synthesis of analogues of the natural hormones, thus affording an opportunity to study the relationship between structure and biological activity in these hormones. One of the most interesting analogues thus far prepared is arginine-vasotocin, an octapeptide amide containing the ring of oxytocin and the side chain of arginine-vasopressin. Some time after the synthesis of this substance and the investigation of some of its biological effects in this laboratory (6), the arginine-vasotocin was tentatively identified as a naturally occurring hormone in fowl neurohypophysial extracts by Munsick, Sawyer, and van Dyke (7-9) on the basis of pharmacological and chromatographic evidence. Chauvet, Lenci, and Acher (10) in a preliminary communication have reported the isolation of a peptide from fowl neurohypophysial extracts which appears to be arginine-vasotocin. Thus the evidence is convincing at the present time for the occurrence in nature of arginine-vasotocin. If further work substantiates this conclusion, the synthesis of this compound would represent a remarkable example of the synthesis of a polypeptide hormone before its identification as a natural product. Sawyer, Munsick, and van Dyke (8) have also studied neurohypophysial extracts from cold-blooded vertebrates and have advanced the hypothesis that arginine-vasotocin occurs not only in birds but also in reptiles, amphibians, and teleosts. Their evidence also indicates that it appears in the most primitive living vertebrates, the cyclostomes. The one elasmobranch (spiny dogfish) that they studied appeared to possess an active peptide unlike any that they had encountered elsewhere among the vertebrates. Pharmacological studies on the pituitaries of fish, fowl, and frogs by Pickering and Heller (11) also provided evidence for the presence of a peptide different from arginineor lysine-vasopressin in these species. Maetz et ~2. (12, 13) came to a similar conclusion with regard to cold-blooded vertebrates. More recently Acher et al. (14) isolated a substance from frog posterior pituitaries with a composition corresponding to that of arginine-vasotocin. Furthermore, the biological properties of the isolated product corresponded to those of synthetic arginine-vasotocin furnished to these investigators by our laboratory.
The metabolomic characterization of changes in human milk metabolites under different storage temperature and time (2011)

The metabolomic profile of human milk is not well characterized compared with other biological fluids like blood, saliva or urine. To date there is no extensive study to determine the ―normal range‖ of the metabolite profile for human milk. In situations where infants are unable to breastfeed, expressed breastmilk is the recommended alternative. This is of significant importance for pre-term infants where breastmilk has been shown to increase their survival rate. Thus, optimal storage time and temperature are required to maintain the nutritional and functional benefits of expressed milk, while preventing the growth of pathogenic bacteria and break down of essential metabolites. &#13;\n&#13;\nThrough gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC -MS), our study aims to unravel the ―normal range of the metabolomic profile for human milk. To test the suitability of GC-MS for this study, a pilot study was undertaken to determine the milk metabolite profile under different storage temperatures over a 24-hour period. Milk expressed from 5 individual mothers, between 3 to 7 months post-partum was collected, aliquoted, then stored immediately either at room temperature, 4°C, -20°C and -80°C before processing for GC-MS analysis. Initial results shows metabolite levels were found to vary over time at higher in contrast to lower temperature stored milk samples. This variation over time could be either positive or negative depending on the metabolite.&#13;\n&#13;\nVariation in the metabolomic profile of the milk when stored at room temperature suggests metabolic modification of the metabolomic profile of the milk occurred presumably due of the cytosolic enzymes escaping into milk during the secretory process. This pilot study shows that milk needs to be stored at -20°C to retain its metabolomic profile.
A General Approach to Selective Functionalization of 1,2,4-Triazines Using Organometallics in Palladium-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling and Addition Reactions (2004)

A selective way to obtain disubstituted 1,2,4-triazines in good yields by combining addition reactions and palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of organometallics with 3-methylsulfanyl-1,2,4-triazine is described.
Domain Organization of Lentiviral and Betaretroviral Surface Envelope Glycoproteins Modeled with AlphaFold (2021)

The surface envelope glycoproteins of nonprimate lentiviruses and betaretroviruses share sequence similarity with the inner proximal domain β-sandwich of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) gp120 glycoprotein that faces the transmembrane glycoprotein as well as patterns of cysteine and glycosylation site distribution that points to a similar two-domain organization in at least some lentiviruses. Here, high-reliability models of the surface glycoproteins obtained with the AlphaFold algorithm are presented for the gp135 glycoprotein of the small ruminant caprine arthritis-encephalitis (CAEV) and visna lentiviruses and the betaretroviruses Jaagsiekte sheep retrovirus (JSRV), mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV), and consensus human endogenous retrovirus type K (HERV-K). The models confirm and extend the inner domain structural conservation in these viruses and identify two outer domains with a putative receptor binding site in the CAEV and visna virus gp135. The location of that site is consistent with patterns of sequence conservation and glycosylation site distribution in gp135. In contrast, a single domain is modeled for the JSRV, MMTV, and HERV-K betaretrovirus envelope proteins that is highly conserved structurally in the proximal region and structurally diverse in apical regions likely to interact with cell receptors. The models presented here identify sites in small ruminant lentivirus and betaretrovirus envelope glycoproteins likely to be critical for virus entry and virus neutralization by antibodies and will facilitate their functional and structural characterization. <b>IMPORTANCE</b> Structural information on the surface envelope proteins of lentiviruses and related betaretroviruses is critical to understand mechanisms of virus-host interactions. However, experimental determination of these structures has been challenging, and only the structure of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 gp120 has been determined. The advent of the AlphaFold artificial intelligence method for structure prediction allows high-quality modeling of the structures of small ruminant lentiviral and betaretroviral surface envelope proteins. The models are consistent with much of the previously described experimental data, show regions likely to interact with receptors, and identify domains that may be involved in mechanisms of antibody neutralization resistance in the small ruminant lentiviruses. The models will allow more precise design of mutants to further determine mechanisms of viral entry and immune evasion in this group of viruses and constructs for structural determination of these surface envelope proteins.
Relational Analysis of Sensor Attacks on Cyber-Physical Systems (2021)

Cyber-physical systems, such as self-driving cars or autonomous aircraft, must defend against attacks that target sensor hardware. Analyzing system design can help engineers understand how a compromised sensor could impact the system's behavior; however, designing security analyses for cyber-physical systems is difficult due to their combination of discrete dynamics, continuous dynamics, and nondeterminism. This paper contributes a framework for modeling and analyzing sensor attacks on cyber-physical systems, using the formalism of hybrid programs. We formalize and analyze two relational properties of a system's robustness. These relational properties respectively express (1) whether a system's safety property can be influenced by sensor attacks, and (2) whether a system's high-integrity state can be affected by sensor attacks. We characterize these relational properties by defining an equivalence relation between a system under attack and the original unattacked system. That is, the system satisfies the robustness properties if executions of the attacked system are appropriately related to executions of the unattacked system. We present two techniques for reasoning about the equivalence relation and thus proving the relational properties for a system. One proof technique decomposes large proof obligations to smaller proof obligations. The other proof technique adapts the self-composition technique from the literature on secure information-flow, allowing us to reduce reasoning about the equivalence of two systems to reasoning about properties of a single system. This technique allows us to reuse existing tools for reasoning about properties of hybrid programs, but is challenging due to the combination of discrete dynamics, continuous dynamics, and nondeterminism. To validate the usefulness of our relational properties and proof techniques, we present three case studies motivated by real design flaws in existing cyber-physical systems.

Experimental determination of dielectric barrier discharge capacitance (2012)

The determination of electrical parameters (such as instantaneous power, transferred charge, and gas gap voltage) in dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) reactors relies on estimates of key capacitance values. In the classic large-scale sinusoidal-voltage driven DBD, also known as silent or ozonizer discharge, capacitance values can be determined from charge-voltage (Q-V) plot, also called Lissajous figure. For miniature laboratory reactors driven by fast pulsed voltage waveforms with sub-microsecond rise time, the capacitance of the dielectric barriers cannot be evaluated from a single Q-V plot because of the limited applicability of the classical theory. Theoretical determination can be problematic due to electrode edge effects, especially in the case of asymmetrical electrodes. The lack of reliable capacitance estimates leads to a "capacitance bottleneck" that obstructs the determination of other DBD electrical parameters in fast-pulsed reactors. It is suggested to obtain capacitance of dielectric barriers from a plot of the maximal charge versus maximal voltage amplitude (Q(max) - V(max) plot) in a manner analogous to the classical approach. The method is examined using measurements of current and voltage waveforms of a coaxial DBD reactor in argon at 100 mbar driven by square voltage pulses with a rise time of 20 ns and with different voltage amplitudes up to 10 kV. Additionally, the applicability of the method has been shown for the data reported in literature measured at 1 bar of nitrogen-oxygen gas mixtures and xenon.

Reperfusion Strategies and Quality of Care in 5339 Patients Age 80 Years or Older Presenting With ST‐Elevation Myocardial Infarction: Analysis from Get With The Guidelines‐Coronary Artery Disease (2012)

Among patients ≥80 years old admitted with STEMI to GWTG-CAD hospitals, less than half undergo mechanical or pharmacological reperfusion. However, the proportion of patients undergoing PPCI has increased substantially over the 8-year study period. Patients undergoing PPCI or TL had lower in-hospital mortality compared with the NR strategy.
Endocarditis-Associated C3-Dominant Glomerulonephritis in a Patient With a Solitary Kidney (2022)

Infective endocarditis (IE) is still seen globally with acute kidney injuries remaining a common complication of the disease. Histological specimens often display either diffuse or focal endocapillary proliferation as well as neutrophilic infiltration in endocarditis-related renal disease. C3-dominant glomerulonephritis (C3GN) utilizes mechanisms of complement activation unique from IE-associated glomerulonephritis. In C3GN, micrographic review may reveal scattered accumulation of C3 fragments with subepithelial hump formation and mesangial electron-dense deposits that help solidify the diagnosis of this recently discovered pathological phenomenon. Herein, we summarize a clinical case of likely IE-related C3GN without hypocomplementemia in a patient with a single kidney to help compare and contrast the key elements of each process. A 27-year-old Hispanic man with a past medical history of nephrectomy for renal donation presented to a community hospital with a high fever and altered sensorium. A serum creatinine of 6.98 mg/dL with unknown baselines, nephrotic-range proteinuria, and severe rhabdomyolysis plus methicillin-sensitive <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> bacteremia were quickly discovered after admission. A later transesophageal echocardiogram showed a hypermobile vegetation along the anterior mitral valve leaflet confirming suspected IE. The patient's serum C3 and C4 complement levels and antinuclear, myeloperoxidase, and proteinase-3 antibody titers were all within normal limits. A renal biopsy pursued in the etiological investigation of this non-oliguric acute kidney injury revealed a single subepithelial electron-dense deposit and granular immunofluorescent C3 staining in peripheral mesangial segments. Dominant C3 deposition without associated immunoglobulins can result from in situ localization of bacterial antigens promoting plasmin activation to recruit neutrophils and monocytes to initiate leukocyte-mediated damage. Immunosuppressive therapies for C3GN triggering antibody-independent activation of the alternative or lectin complement pathways may be merited where disease remission becomes difficulty to achieve.
