Introduction
============

  In all fundamental theories of matter, it is necessary to understand very well the free theory before trying to describe interactions. In this context, it is sometimes desirable to construct a way along which the interacting theory could be naturally linked to the free theory, thus avoiding interactions of being artificially introduced.

One way to investigate the relations between the free and the interacting theories is to examine the invariances of the corresponding actions. In interesting cases the free action has a larger number of invariances than the interacting one and inof the favorite ways for companies to slash their tax bills is by setting up foreign subsidiaries to make raw materials and components in countries with low tax rates. The companies’ U.S. operations then purchase these parts from the foreign units at well above cost. By doing this, the overseas unit makes a large profit, which then escapes U.S. taxes, as long as it stays in the foreign country, Yee says. Transfer payments are used at Bristol, Forest Labs, Agilent Technologies, Eaton and Lam Research, he says. Many companies are likely waiting for a U.S. tax-holiday, giving them a chance to bring the cash to the U.S. tax-free, Yee says. Agilent and Bristol declined to comment. The other companies didn’t respond.
• Harvesting losses. Most of the companies with


effective tax rates of zero, or even negative, are money losers. While Hewlett-Packard, J.C. Penney and E-Trade pay taxes, since they lose money, they have negative effective tax rates due to the way the number is calculated. Yet, some big companies that have lost money in the past accumulate credits that can be used to offset tax bills in future years. These reserves can be very lucrative and give profit a boost by lowering the effective tax rate, Yee says. Companies with these tax loss reserves include General Motors and Crown Castle, he says. GM, for instance, released credit from its reserve, taking it down from $45 billion to $11 billion. Investors must be aware, though, that once that $11 billion reserve is used up, the company’s taxParasympathetic Regulation and Inhibitory Control Predict the Development of Externalizing Problems in Early Childhood.
The current report examined the longitudinal relations between cognitive self-regulation, physiological self-regulation, and externalizing problems. At age 4 (n = 98; 49 girls) and 6 (n = 87; 42 girls), children completed the Day-Night task, which taps the inhibitory control dimension of executive function. During the task, cardiac activity was measured and respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) was derived as an index of parasympathetic activity. Mothers reported on externalizing problems. A cross-lagged path model was used to estimate longitudinal predictions while controlling for stability in all constructs over time. Earlier inhibitory control negatively predicted later externalizing problems, but not vice versa. However, RSA reactivity moderated this link; better inhibitory control predicted fewer externalizing problems only when


reactivity to the Day-Night task ranged from mild RSA suppression to RSA augmentation. Externalizing problems at 6 years were highest among preschoolers who augmented RSA but showed poor inhibitory control performance, suggesting that risk for psychopathology may be better delineated by viewing self-regulation from an integrated, multi-system perspective.only -X and not -Z. It is -Z and it is -X. Period.

It's why I've begun to fear the legislator that is seemingly able to break the
law by making laws they are not empowered to make, and a politicalized
judiciary that doesn't spend their time enforcing a strict obeyance of
legislation to common language, and administrative lawmakers in the executive
that are never double checked.

The world passed on to the generations after us will be a grim place indeed if
we keep leaving them more and more shackled by the overwhelming detritus of
the legislative hooliganry of our age.

For Elliot, he said he believes this issue is an evolving one, referencing the Department of Revenue's audit this year.

"It was a low point for the marijuana movement. There was certainly some bad decision spending made by DOR - a lot of it can just be attributed to growing pains that no one's ever done this before," he said.

And these new taxes might be the solution, according to Elliot.

"One of the biggest issues was the lack of funding, that they didn't have the staff they needed, that they were behind in enforcement, and we really don't want that to happen again," he said.

ADVERSE REACTIONS: The most common adverse reaction with LOKELMA was mild to moderate edema. In placebo-controlled trials up to 28 days, edema was reported in 4.4%, 5.9%, 16.1% of patients treated with 5 g, 10 g and 15 g of LOKELMA once daily, respectively vs 2.4% of patients receiving placebo.

DRUG INTERACTIONS: LOKELMA can transiently increase gastric pH. In general, oral medications with pH-dependent solubility should be administered at least 2 hours before or 2 hours after LOKELMA. Spacing is not needed if it has been determined the concomitant medication does not exhibit pH-dependent solubility.

Article XVIII of the Basic Agreement sets out the terms of free agency for major league players. Under the Basic Agreement, the term "free agents" refers to players in one of two situations. Re-entry free agents are players who have six years of service in the major leagues, and may elect to become free agents which in turn permits them to entertain employment offers from all of the other major league clubs.

On or about March 1, 1994, ten players employed by the Cardinals in 1987, and two players "deemed employed" were paid individual monetary awards totaling $2,125,163.12, of which $465,699.12 was interest. The players who were deemed to be employees received only $38,418.97 of the damage award.
On January 26, 1995, one player who was deemed employed by the Cardinals received a payment of $255,691.67, of which $67,691.67 was interest.
On or about January 26, 1995, three players employed by the Cardinals in 1987 were paid individual monetary awards of $38,418.96 in damages of which $8,418.96 was interest.
On about May 17, 1997, fourteen players employed by the Cardinals in 1988 were paid individual monetary awards totaling $3,450,178.19, of whichat the time the wrong being remedied occurred. Thus, under these circumstances, the plaintiff's analogy to a personal injury case is inapposite.

C. Settlement Payments Made by Clubs and Employers
Plaintiff argues that it did not owe FICA taxes because the payments were not made by the person employing the players receiving payments. Plaintiff specifically contends that because each club contributed 1/26th of the overall settlement payment regardless of the damage they actually inflicted, the Court should find that 25/26ths of each payment was actually paid by teams for whom the players receiving payments were not employed.
As the court recognized in San Francisco Baseball Associates, L.P. v. United States, 88 F.Supp.2d 1087, 1091 (N.D.Cal. 2000), acceptance of this argument would result in no one paying employment taxes on the distributions

About the author

Maybe being a tree farmer means having the ability to look into the future: When Jonathan Keyser and Ethan Romanchak hold a seed, they can already see the tall, strong koa it will one day become.

So although there was almost no market for native Hawaiian plants when they founded Native Nursery on Maui 11 years ago, the partners aren’t surprised today to see their business thriving.
“We’ve just stuck with it until now, it’s as simple as that,” Keyser says.

The pair have found a unique market for specialized, high-end Hawaiian plants and trees, cultivated at their four-acre Kula site, largely from seeds and cuttings collected in the wild. While private landscapers make up about a third of their business, their biggest market is reforestation. They deliveredreforestation.

Romanchak and Keyser, who have backgrounds in horticulture and landscaping, respectively, say that, from the beginning, they avoided dime-a-dozen commodity landscaping plants like areca palms and monkeypod trees, choosing to compete on quality and specialization, not price. “We’d rather try something different, that’s difficult and complex,” Keyser says.

Romanchak says they found an unmet need by thinking about what people would be planting in 10 years.

“If I walk into Home Depot and think, ‘Why are there no native trees in my local nursery?’ you gotta figure there are other people thinking that, too,” he says.

They focused on learning to grow native plants that weren’t readily available commercially, starting with seeds or cuttings brought to them by state and nonprofit conservation workers, and sometimes trekking into private forests with permission

their coworkers. If you bring up an issue (of any kind), it's often treated
with suspicion before people even understand what it is. But if the issue is
generated by "an authority", suddenly it's a massive problem -- again even
before people understand what it is.

The Commonsense Conceptions of Time and Persistence, and Two Technical Terms In day-to-day life, we harbour certain loose and vague ideas about the nature of time and the persistenceand trees, exist: such entities are mere "fictions", logical constructions, entia successiva or entia per alio. Endurantism of the weaker (i)-(ii) variety is adopted for the truly existing things (i.e. 3-D mereological sums) that "stand in for" or "do duty for" entia successiva. 19 world-picture, or Weltanschauung. However, as mentioned above, there are scientific and philosophical reasons for thinking that presentism is a false doctrine. (These will be set out in Section 2.) A good case can be made for the view that a significantly different and revisionary view of time is correct, namely the so-called B-theory of time.9 According to the B-theory, the present moment is not ontologically special. Past and future times are just as real as the present, and together they and the present moment


constitute an extended time-dimension: a fourth dimension along which all of the events of history are spread out, once and for all. The idea that time flows, in the mode of presentism, is thus rejected. Times and their contents do not come into being and disappear. There is merely a "static" arrow of time, meaning that the times and the contents of the fourth-dimension are interrelated and ordered by earlier than/later than relations. In the B-theory it is postulated that these relations hold among their relata without the relations being produced or grounded by some directed flow-process. But if we reject presentism and adopt the B-theory, questions arise as to how we are to conceptualize the persistence of physical, middle-sized objects. Prima facie our commonsense views of persistenceis indeed the case, presentism looks even more ontologically artificial and even more counterintuitive. Not many, I suppose, conceive of presentism on analogy with an infinite set of Russian nesting dolls. Worse still, the infinite regress here seems logically vicious, because, without end, the need to ground the flow is passed on to the next level of the infinite hierarchy: at no level is the flow grounded so that the flow of the lower level becomes secured.16 The upshot seems to be a dilemma: either time has to be held to not flow at any genuine rate at all, in which case it can be questioned whether time flows; or time has to be said to flow in a meta-time (perhaps with varying rates), which would render presentism


"Was-1-day-ago (a downpour occurs at thus-and-such place)" is. 33 3. A Revisionary Theory of Time: the B-theory of Time The B-theory of time successfully evades the difficulties faced by presentism. It denies that time flows and endorses the reality of all times and their contents, no matter whether the times are deemed past, present or future by commonsense. The considerations presented in Section 2 above therefore pose no threat to it. Let us take a closer look at the way the B-theory succeeds in evading the difficulties. In the process of doing so we will obtain a more comprehensive and deeper understanding of the content of the B-theory, and of how it contrasts with presentism. At the end of this section I will address some worries that areyear 2178 is "in the future" and the French Revolution is "past" 24 For discussion of these issues, see e.g. Smart (1963, pp. 142-148), Grünbaum (1973, Part II), Lewis (1979), Horwich (1987), Davies (1995, ch. 5), Price (1996) and Mellor (1998, ch. 10-12). Notice that if time's arrow were merely assigned, "persistence" from time t to t  could just as well be described as "persistence" from t  to t. In my view, this would rule out genuine persistence. However, the notion of a conventional arrow of time is prima facie incoherent. Surely, there must be an arrow of time in order for it to be possible for us to assign an arrow to the world. 36 (provided of course that the utterance in question takes place


idea that a recently deceased person "still" lives at earlier times, somewhat analogously to the pleasure the B-theorist may derive from contemplating positive events that "will" take place. In many cases, however, I suppose it is rational for a B-theorist to have different attitudes to what is later and what is earlier – e.g. to worry about the "future" but not about the "past". At any rate, this looks plausible if the B-theorist thinks that the arrow of causation is unidirectional and points to the future. If a person worries about the future, anticipating, anxiously, that certain unpleasant things might (epistemically) then 35 It matters not whether this anecdote is true; it illustrates a mind-set. 42 happen, the chances are that she will act so as to preventthe presentistic framework? As we saw in Section 2.2.2, the notion that we can ground truths that involve the way things were in the past or will be in the future in Lucretian properties, or laws of nature plus the present state of the universe, is highly problematic. So unless better accounts are forthcoming, it would appear that presentism comes with an unaccommodating stance on all three persistence theories.49 entity is located at more than one instant and that names and sortal predicates apply to 3-D entities. However, both Hawley and Sider do in fact accept the existence of 4-D aggregates and develop stage theory on the assumption of the existence of such aggregates (see Sider, 2001, p. 191 ff.; Hawley, 2001, p. 68 ff.). 49 Although there


readily appreciated if one has read Paper II previously. "The Tenseless Copula in Temporal Predication" also clarifies, develops, and in minor respects revises, some of the ideas expressed in "The Problem(s) of Change Revisited". For example, in Paper II, I took it for granted that the tenseless copula has a disjunctive character, and I said, rather quickly, that the copula should be read as "encompassing the tensed 'was, is or will be'" (p. 267). In Paper III, I argue that we should distinguish two tenseless copulas: one that has a disjunctive character (logically equivalent to "was, is or will be", which I no longer regard as tensed) and one saying that the subject plainly and unqualifiedly just is what the predicate expresses.

In Larne, Billy Andy’s in Raloo and Ruby’s Bar were named winners with nearby Mattie’s Meeting House in Carncastle also awarded a top 100 accolade.

In Ballymena, The Front Page and Galgorm Resort & Spa secured their place on the prestigious list.

Other Co. Antrim venues included Crosskeys Inn in Toome and Ownies Bar & Bistro in Carrickfergus. A further 40 venues on the top are drawn from Belfast, giving Co. Antrim the largest share of winning venues.

The list, compiled by Hospitality Ulster in conjunction with


a panel of industry experts was unveiled at a ceremony hosted by comedian Tim McGarry and attended by VIP guests including boxer Carl Frampton.

From Michelin starred restaurants and five-star hotels to buzzing city centre nightclubs, gastropubs, quaint country pubs and hotels, Hospitality Ulster’s Top 100 shines the spotlight on Northern Ireland hospitality at its best.

The awards were presented in alphabetical order with recipients afforded equal recognition for their role in driving forward industry standards.

Mark Stewart, chair, Hospitality Ulster, said: “The Top 100 Hospitality Business Awards recognise those - who through their premises, staff and product offering - encompass the very essence of our unique hospitality industry; going the extra mile to deliver a great customer experience that serves both their target audience and customer demographic.

“These awards are uniquepicking places to eat and then heading for a hardware store where they’d all gather after shopping at the checkout line to see what the others purchased.

They even drove to the Twin Cities to dine at a restaurant where Romeo Dale Johnson is a consultant. However, Johnson had to assure the rest of the Romeos a hardware store was nearby.

But, not everyone liked the name Tool Time.

“I’ve been opposed to Tool Time because it has the connotation of old age,” said Allan Barta. “On the other hand, Romeo has a youthful flair about it.”

The retired gentlemen liked getting together every week but always had problems with coordinating where they would meet the following week or remembering where they agreed to meet. They were always forgetting, and a lot

27 and its operation will now be described. During a recording operation, a laser diode 10 provides the heat source necessary for a storage media 20 to reach its Curie point. A 4 or 5 mm laser beam 29 provided by laser diode 10 passes through a grating 11, a lens 12, a polarizer 13 and a beamsplitter 14 to a movable reflecting mirror 15 and is focused at a point 28 (which represents 1 bit of information) on the magnetic material 20 of a storage disk 18 by a movable objective lens 17.
In this manner, bit 28 on the storage disk 18 can be heated, thereby lowering the coercive force required to change the magnetization of the bit. A magnetic field generated by coil 19 will causePrimary de novo intraosseous carcinoma of the mandible--report of a case and review of literature.

Among all gynecologic malignancies, ovarian cancer is the most common cause of death worldwide ([@B1]). The 10-year survival rate is only 15% for patients diagnosed with stage III-IV disease ([@B2]). Unfortunately, over 80% of cases are diagnosed at advanced stages. Currently, cytoreductive surgery remains the cornerstone of treatment for advanced ovarian cancer. The completeness of cytoreduction is associated with local recurrence rates and clinical outcomes ([@B3]). The median survival time of patients who undergo complete resection of all visible disease (R0) is 99.1 months, and the corresponding durations for patients with residuals of 0.1--1 cm or \>1 cm are 36.2 or 29.6 months, respectively ([@B4]). Patients with R0 resection seem to have the best overall outcomes ([@B5]). However, the R0 resection rate is only 8.1% in patients


of GnRHa-ICG.

NIRF imaging is an emerging biomedical imaging modality for fluorescence-guided surgery because of its significant penetration depth, light absorption, real-time capabilities, and absence of ionizing radiation. The first FDA-approved NIRF dye, ICG, has been in clinical use for more than half a century and has proven to be safe and feasible. GnRHa-ICG had the same excitation and emission wavelength as ICG, which made its clinical application possible. Owing to the EPR effect, ICG has been used for the intraoperative identification of cancers, including ovarian, pancreatic, and colorectal cancer ([@B8]). However, the ICG detection of ovarian cancer and metastasis is not satisfactory because of nonspecific binding. Tummers reported that despite the successful detection of all metastatic lesions, 13 nonmalignant lesions also exhibited fluorescence, resulting in a high false-positiveThe city of Laguna Beach, California has employed a unique method to help prevent wildfires in the area: 1,000 goats.

ABC News reports that the city is using more than 1,000 goats to chew through dry weeds and grass. Laguna Beach's Fire Marshall, James Brown, calls the vegetation "fuel" for wildfires.

Laguna Beach has used goats since 1992 and Brown said the program was "extremely effective." This is the largest group of goats the city has had in the history of the program; goats and herders from Peru have cleared 80% of this year's 250-acre goal.

"The Laguna Beach residents appreciate what the goats do to protect their community, and are very supportive of our program," Brown said. "They have also been very supportive of the herders who tend to the


and air trapping occurs. All of these events are linked to airway hyperresponsiveness, in which airway response to a wide variety of environmental stressors is increased, most notably increased response to cholinergic agonists and airway dehydration (Busse and Lemanske 2001; Busse and Rosenwasser 2003).

Environmental exposures are an important factor in the pathobiology of asthma. Allergic processes play a defining role in atopic asthma, with mite, cockroach and mammalian (both pest and pet) exposures linked to disease development (Matsui et al. 2008; Sharma et al. 2007; Zeldin et al. 2006). Occupational exposures lead to asthma genesis (Bernstein 2011; Cartier and Sastre 2011; Christiani et al. 2008; Malo and Vandenplas 2011; Redlich and Karol 2002; Szema 2012; Tarlo et al. 2008), and chronic exposure to ambient air pollutants and tobaccoon inhaled coarse fraction particulate matter activates airway phagocytes in vivo in healthy volunteers.

|been proposed to mediate PM-induced atherosclerosis as illustrated in Fig. 9.1. The differences in the degree to which aortic atherosclerosis was enhanced by PM2.5 in the various CAPs studies are likely due to several factors. These include differences in the length of the exposures, the type of experimental diet, the PM composition and the gender and age of the mice, and thus the extent of atherosclerosis already existing at the time of exposure. For example, while 4–6 month-exposures to concentrated PM2.5 in New York (Chen and Nadziejko 2005; Chen et al. 2010; Sun et al. 2005, 2008; Ying et al. 2009) yielded positive results, 5-week exposures to concentrated PM2.5 in Los Angeles only resulted in a non-statistically significant trend for increased atherosclerotic lesions (Araujo et al. 2008). Further,


combustion and other major polluting energy sources, and construction-related dust have led to much higher air pollutant concentrations in developing countries in comparison with the developed world. Figure 13.3 shows how drastic the air pollution burden shifts of the past four decades have been, using PM10 emissions as a surrogate marker for other major air pollutants in terms of global trends (PM2.5 data are largely unavailable historically).

The proposed rule presents the scientific basis for the options discussed. A public comment period, during which public hearings are generally held, follows publication of the notice of proposed rulemaking. Taking into account comments received on the proposed rule, the EPA develops and issues a final rule presenting the Administrator's final decision on whether the current NAAQS should be retained or revised. In addition, the Agency prepares a formal Response to Comments document to address substantive issues raised by the public during the public comment period on the proposed rule.

As described briefly above, the approach for the regulation of air toxics, also referred tohad got her completely wrong (what, us?). To say they're not what we expected would be to do a disservice to irony and understatement. We anticipated yet another foghorn belter standing unadorned at the mic and wailing a series of unimaginative, unimaginably uninspired 12-bar blues or country moanathons – not these massive strings-drenched ballads that pay lip service to the mid-60s era of those solo artists with single names like Dusty, Lulu, Cilla and Sandie and the sort of epic tunes they would have blasted out on Sunday Night at the London Palladium or during a royal command performance. Open Up Your Arms, due to be the second single from this new Island signing in early 2012, is fabulous, and reminds us, if anything, of the Last Shadow


shaped grooves in the sheet. It is only practical to cut slots into the sheets, where the cut is straight through the sheet.
In the reprographics industry, when a large stack of paper is to have its edges aligned, such as prior to binding, the paper is put into a vibrator with walls on 2 sides at a compound angle. This shakes all the sheets down into a common corner. Such a technique is not practical for PCB sheets, however, because the sheets are so difficult to cut that sub-millimeter registration would never be achievable, though it would be possible to precision-punch registration grooves into the sheets.
Thus a special design has been needed to develop kinematic couplings specifically tailored for application to the problems of accurately positioning and orientingage and throughout life masturbate more often than circumcised ones.

CIRCLIST’s view is that masturbation, done in moderation and with a proper degree of privacy, should be encouraged because of the implications regarding prostate health. That said, the advantages of circumcision (health, hygiene, cosmetic appearance and improved sensations during sexual intercourse) far outweigh any issues arising in consequence of it making masturbation more difficult. Marginal degradation of the masturbation experience is not a reason to avoid circumcision in cultures where masturbation is acceptable.

In cultures or individual circumstances where masturbation is unacceptable, circumcision can be and is used to inhibit self-arousal. But it is unlikely to prevent masturbation entirely; any such expectation is likely to lead to disappointment. Choice of circumcision style is important here. The greatest effect will occur


by our doctor and he circumcised me tight. When soft there was no loose skin bunched behind the glans and hard no skin movement at all. I was scared to be circumcised, although I thought it might help me control myself. And, miraculously, it did! I couldn’t even think about touching my penis for two weeks. When I was finally healed, the urge seemed to be gone. Shortly thereafter I had showed my good friend my newly cut cock. I had told him what was going on just before I was cut. He told me how he lubed his glans to masturbate and I eventually did try this. However, I was also starting to date and it wasn’t long before I became sexually active. I was also gladCheyt-Syngs.

While active learning is widely used in some fields, there have been only limited applications to biological problems \[[@B15]-[@B21]\].

Active learning consists of three phases performed in a loop (as illustrated for the work described here in Figure [1](#F1){ref-type="fig"}). A campaign of experiments can be initialized either using prior results from literature or databases or by randomly selecting a batch of experiments from an experimental space. **(1)** A model is generated to represent the currently available data. **(2)** From that model, experiments are selected for execution that are expected to improve the model. **(3)** The set of experiments is executed and


the assay scores may be non-linearly related to true activity, and while estimates of true activity may be obtained by further manipulation or testing, we expect them to be good approximate predictors of which combinations of compounds and targets will show high activity.

Three approaches to prediction of the assay scores were used. The first approach used compound features only (CFO) to predict the activity of each compound in a given assay (analogously to QSAR). Using lasso regression, compound features were selected that were strongly indicative of the activity of a compound on a *single* target. A regression model was learned for each individual target allowing for the selection of compound features unique to a target (Figure [1](#F1){ref-type="fig"}b and Equation 1). The second approach used protein features only (PFO) to predictfor larger sets might be as good or better.

Discussion and conclusions
==========================

We have described a pipeline for executing experiments driven by an active learning system and demonstrated that it can result in the rapid discovery of compounds which affect target proteins using a set of heterogeneous assays. We found that the selection of experiments based only on predictions calculated using compound features (predicting the effect of a compound on a single target) performed significantly better than the selection of experiments based only on predictions from target features (predicting the sensitivity of a target protein to a single compound). Decent performance of the prediction models using compound features is to be expected given past results with QSAR approaches to modeling compound activity on a given target. The comparatively poor performance


compound features respectively from all executed experiments with protein *p*. The regression coefficients learned using lasso regression on the compound features to predict activity across target *p* are found in ***β***~*p*~. This method allows us to predict the effects from compounds on a single protein based on the features of that compound. Additionally, ***Y***~*d*~ and ***X***~*d*~ are the vector of activity scores and matrix of protein features respectively from all executed experiments with compound *d*. The regression coefficients learned using lasso regression on the protein target features to predict activity on all protein targets for compound *d* are found in ***β***~*d*~. These prediction methods are illustrated in Figure [1](#F1){ref-type="fig"}b-c.

This automation technology helps utilities choose the best, most affordable generation mix (known as economic dispatch), keeping costs lower for consumers and businesses; reduce losses and waste in the delivery of power to drive a more efficient system; and maintain system reliability to help ensure a steady supply of power to customers. Distribution Management System (DMS) comprises the smart grid automation technology that provides utilities with real-time information about the distribution network and allows utilities to remotely control switches in the grid. The DMS is the heart of a smarter distribution grid; enabling utilities to manage distributed renewable generation, support grid efficiency technologies, and control the isolation and restoration of outages. Without DMS, the utility gets very little real-time information about the distribution grid and can't


generation and transmission systems are generally sized to correspond to peak demand (plus margin for forecasting error and unforeseen events), lowering peak demand reduces overall plant and capital cost requirements. Depending on the configuration of generation capacity, however, demand response may also be used to increase demand (load) at times of high production and low demand. Some systems may thereby encourage energy storage to arbitrage between periods of low and high demand (or low and high prices).
Generally, a smart meter is comprised of at least two separate electronic boards—a first board that controls communication between the smart meter and the first and second networks, and a second board that controls metrology functions and data management. These two boards are connected through an interface port. Because of the naturespeed! network communication is gzip-compressed

Sources close to Livni told The Times of Israel that “this report is ludicrous and crazy.” Needless to say, they said, the story was without foundation. “There are apparently those who fear Livni’s return to politics, where she will strengthen Israel’s standing domestically and internationally,” the sources said.

The Egyptian newspaper story claimed that Livni gave an interview to The Times of London in 2009 –segments of which it said were quoted at the time in the Israeli daily Yedioth Ahronoth — in which she “prided herself for her heroic actions, which included special operations such as entrapping important personalities by involving them in sexual scandals.”

It quoted her as


then-imminent general elections.

The Egyptian paper did not quote from the interview, but it referred to a certain “Rabbi Ari Shfat, considered one of the most important and famous rabbis in Israel,” who it said issued religious edicts permitting “Israeli women to have sex with the enemy in return for important information.”

The Times of Israel sought a response from A-Masry Al-Youm, but none had been received at the time of publication.if the lien does not relate back to a time pre-petition, then the recordation of the lien violated the automatic stay because the lien would not defeat the judgment lien of a hypothetical creditor.
Under the laws of Florida, a mechanic's lien relates back to the date on which the work was commenced. Since the commencement of the work is usually prepetition, a post-petition recordation of the lien would relate back to a time pre-petition. This lien would defeat or have priority over the rights of a Trustee or a Debtor who holds the status of a hypothetical lien creditor under § 544, and therefore, would be a permissible post-petition filing for purposes of perfecting the lien. See In re Hamlin, 34 B.R. 673 (Bankr.E.D.Mich. 1983); In re Houts,


Motion to Allow Filing of Lien Nunc Pro Tunc is without merit and should be denied.
The matter of violation of the automatic stay is specifically dealt with by § 362(h) of the Bankruptcy Code, which provides as follows:
§ 362(h) Automatic stay.
(h) An individual injured by any willful violation of a stay provided by this section shall recover actual damages, including costs and attorneys' fees, and, in appropriate circumstances, may recover punitive damages.
Thus, there is no question that this Court has authority to impose sanctions if: (1) the Association violated the automatic stay and (2) the Association willfully violated the automatic stay. This Court is satisfied that the § 362 automatic stay was violated because the claim of lien had no relation back. Moreover, the violation by the Association,when spatiotemporal component overlap interacts with differential P600 modulations due to task demands (cf. Kolk et al., [@B14]). While the problem of spatiotemporal component overlap is generally acknowledged, and occasionally invoked to account for within-study inconsistencies in the data, its implications are often overlooked in psycholinguistic theorizing that aims to integrate findings across studies. We believe WCS-centric theorizing to be the single largest reason for the lack of convergence regarding the processes underlying the N400 and the P600, thereby seriously hindering the advancement of neurocognitive theories and models of language processing.

Why the data are inconsistent {#s1}
=============================

ERP studies examining the processing of semantic incongruity sometimes report contradictory results. To shed light on these contradictions, Van Petten and Luka ([@B29]) (henceforth VP&L) conducted a systematic review on semantic incongruity effects.


compared to when it only increases P600 amplitude.

Two experiments by Kolk et al. ([@B14]) support this prediction. In a first experiment with an explicit acceptability judgment task, they found that a semantically incongruous contrast produced a biphasic N400/P600-effect relative to control, and that a semantic reversal anomaly---e.g., a sentence describing a fox hunting poachers---produced a P600-effect only. In a second experiment, the judgment task was removed, and whereas the P600-effect to the reversal anomaly persisted, the semantic incongruity now produced an N400-effect only. This logic can be applied in reverse to the studies reviewed by VP&L: If these studies were repeated with a by-item acceptability judgment task, the P600 is predicted to survive spatiotemporal overlap with the N400, and be apparent for all semantic incongruities and unexpectancies inSo, no sooner is Trump back from his disastrous G7 meeting than he starts mugging the press. Nothing new here—simply another distract, discredit and deceive tactic—something every would-be despot does. But Trump and his Republican allies could be facing a moment when the reality of their corporate-friendly, rich-folks-first policies get too grim to hide.

We saw what could be the bow wave of this dynamic when Greg Gianforte, the Repulican who just won a special election in Montana, body-slammed reporter Ben Jacobs.

Gianforte got violent because the Guardian journalist asked him the question every conservative Republican has been and is dreading. Specifically, do they back Trumpcare?

"If ever there was a bill that could have contrasted the difference between the two major parties, Trumpcare could have been it."

Separate and Combined Effects of GIP and GLP-1 Infusions on Bone Metabolism in Overweight Men Without Diabetes.
The gut-derived incretin hormones glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) have been suggested to play a role in bone metabolism. Exogenous administration of GIP inhibits bone resorption, but the effect of GLP-1 is less clear. Furthermore, the combined effect of exogenous GIP and GLP-1 on bone metabolism is unknown. To investigate the effect of separate and combined infusions of the incretin hormones GIP and GLP-1 on bone resorption and formation. Randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, crossover study including five study days. Seventeen overweight/obese men. On the first study day, a 50-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was performed. On the next four study days, isoglycemic IV glucose infusions (IIGI), mimicking the         sum10 += n % 10;

Even at the highest supersonic cruise lift coefficient, the approximated lift-dependent drag coefficient is only 4.3% of what it is at landing speed. Supersonic drag is dominated by pressure and friction, and the cost of lift creation is dwarfed by the other sources of drag. Or let's look at another aircraft designed for sustained supersonic flight, or more specific, it's flight envelope (source):

The aircraft operates in a narrow band of dynamic pressures, trading density for speed to stay within a corridor of 310 KIAS to 450 KIAS when flying at supersonic speed. Here the lift coefficient is roughly between 0.1 and 0.3 (depending on aircraft mass and load factor) and again much lower than at low speed, where minimum speed drops to 145 KIAS.
Note that the lift wavea GET that will obtain the current X and Y values and then add or subtract one depending on the chosen direction.
So, DoSomething() will have a parameter called "direction".
and then  on the key press event, my function will "click" on the box that matches the X and Y of my function.
So, for north, first I have a get that finds x=10 and y=10. Then knowing that I have hit "8", it will set x=10 and y=10+1. The function will then find the box whose parameters match the params of my function, and "click" on it.
Am I doing this right? (Or is there an easier way?)

Trump became president in January, after threatening to upend years of cooperation between the two neighbors with divisive rhetoric on trade and security.

One of the sources said the talks focused on Mexico’s commitment to securing its southern border to keep out criminals and illegal immigrants. The source said that U.S. Ambassador to Mexico Roberta Jacobson also attended.

Mexico’s Foreign Ministry said Foreign Minister Luis Videgaray was not present. A third source said Socorro Flores, deputy minister for Latin America and the Caribbean, represented Mexico at the meeting.

U.S. Northern Command spokesman Michael Kucharek confirmed Robinson and Tidd visited Mexico on Tuesday as part of “continued coordination in partner nation security,” adding that the two also went to Honduras and Guatemala.

A spokesman for the U.S. embassy in Mexico City said: “Thesouthern border visit has been planned for months and gave U.S. authorities a chance to learn first-hand about the challenges Mexico faces in protecting its borders.”

The spokesman did not provide further details.

Mexico denied media reports on Wednesday suggesting that Trump, on a recent call with Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto, had threatened to send U.S. troops into Mexico if the country did not step up efforts against its drug cartels.

And for more seasoned women who are already in a position to make a difference in their current workplaces and communities, Huff advises, “We are in a war for talent. That’s why the developing skills of women are so important. You can see the knowledge worker drain. But it has to be a business case. If there isn’t one, you’re not going to get there.”

Muscle injury is inevitable during surgical exposure of the spine. This study compared paraspinal muscle injury after 4 surgical techniques: microdiscectomy (MD), percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy (PELD), percutaneous endoscopic interlaminar discectomy (PEID), unilateral biportal endoscopic discectomy (UBED). Eighty patients who underwent MD, PELD, PEID, and UBED were prospectively observed. Creatine phosphokinase (CPK) and C-reactive protein levels were measured on admission and postoperative days 1, 3, 5, and 7. CPK ratio was calculated as CPK on postoperative day 1/CPK on admission. Cross-sectional area of the high-intensity lesion in the paraspinal muscle was measured on magnetic resonance imaging after surgery. Operative time and hospital stay duration were also examined. Clinical outcome was evaluated using the

more pleasant or fun so that I could pack a little more happiness into my life.

“By identifying these patterns and acknowledging their power to shape our lives, we’re better able to spot happiness-boosting ways to change them,” she said.

I like that thought because our routines end up shaping our existence.

So, while some magazines offer more headline hype than substance, Good Housekeeping came through for me, and I guess I have to give that the Good Housekeeping seal of approval.

1. Memories of living in Crystal City and taking my camera over to Arlington Cemetery to photograph the thousands of flags posted by the graves and feeling overwhelming gratitude for the soldiers who served the United States with such courage and valor. I couldn’t believe the sea of red, white,is not my friend.

Since I’m a woman who gets regular mail from AARP and I gain weight just looking at Pinterest foods, baking is the last thing I should do with my time.

I’ve always wanted to be the woman who sneers at fat-producing, non-nutritional foods — the controlled woman who calmly walks past them, and happily heads for the celery, salivating at the sight of red pepper hummus, and a the plethora of colorful veggies.

Instead, I’m the woman who sits on the deck on a beautiful spring day writing a blog about Nutella muddy buddies because if I stayed inside, I’d be standing over a bowl devouring them, and marveling over a clump so big it resembles a meatball.

My inner sweet-toothed, undisciplined self wants to have the muddy

If you’ve kept up on my blog over the last year, you know I often mention my mom.

On her birthday a couple of weeks ago, I posted a note about her on Facebook.

I said I’d been quoting her a lot lately.

A few friends commented and wondered exactly which of her sayings I’d been quoting.

You see, not all of her sayings are polite to quote, and these friends knew it.

She’s a spicy-tongued gal and if I slipped into “Sandra speech” too often or too freely, I could get myself into trouble.

Since Mother’s Day is approaching, there are a few things I wantthat antique cupboard and the posts around the patio. Then I’m going to start planting my flowers. I’ve got it all planned out.” A few days earlier, she pulled out her gardening notebook and showed me the drawings for her flowerbeds. At 77 years old, she does not stop working. Her relaxation is to watch Law & Order and embroidery gorgeous quilt squares and read one book after another.

6. I have two brothers and one sister. During the course of our lifetimes, Mom has rescued each one of us from at least one major crisis. By rescue, I mean swooped in and cradled us as adults just like she did when we were children.

Happy Mother’s Day Mom. I feel like the luckiest girl in


the world to have you for my mom.

I walked into the front doors and waved at a friend I used to work with on PTA projects.

Then I saw several friends from church, the neighborhood, and from soccer teams and lacrosse teams.

A boot camp friend, who also was a waitress at one of our favorite local restaurants, stopped to visit.

Unfortunately, the restaurant, Tortilla Factory, closed this year so I don’t see her as often.

Our last dinner at Tortilla Factory. The entire town showed up!

“You need to come to Virginia Kitchen now to see me,” she said.

“I will! It’s one of Doug’s favorite breakfast places,” I told her.

I ran into a friend whose daughters went all through school with my daughters

“I was actually out of action just over a month,” Lee said. “But I did a scene the first week after the surgery. I did a scene with Alexis Ford where I played a mental patient who couldn’t open my mouth and she eased my pain by showing me her boobs.

“I did another scene with Kirsten Price where she was my doctor and then I did a scene with Melanie Rios and Gracie Glam, where they were nurses helping my recovery.”

Lee was a 2012 nominee for XBIZ Crossover Star of the Year and Performer of the Year.

Q:

e-banking from oversea bank to the UK bank & IBAN code

I have paid my tuition fees with e-banking from my country to the UK.
And I've filled in SWIFT code and the addressee’s name, address, and  UK account number instead of IBAN code.
This will be refused by the UK bank?
I heard that banks in the Europe only accept IBAN code from other countries.
(My English is bad.. Please understand me..)

A:

If you have done an International Transfer to UK via SWIFT, don't worry, UK still accepts the UK Bank Account number and it is not mandatory for IBAN to be used.

for the first time in history, we humans took the apocalypse out of the hands of God (or the gods), where it had resided for thousands of years, and placed it directly in our own. What they didn’t live to experience, however, was history’s second potential deal-breaker, climate change, already bringing upheaval to the planet, and threatening a slow-motion apocalypse of an unprecedented sort.

While nuclear weapons have not been used since August 9, 1945, even if they have spread to the arsenals of numerous countries, climate change should be seen as a snail-paced version of nuclear war -- and keep in mind that humanity is still pumping near-record levels of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. I imagine my parents’ amazement that the most dangerous and confounding issue on


the planet didn’t get a single question, not to speak of an answer, in the three presidential debates of 2016, the four and a half hours of charges, insults, and interruptions just past. Neither a moderator, nor evidently an undecided voter (in the town hall second debate), nor either presidential candidate -- each ready to change the subject on a moment’s notice from embarrassing questions about sexual aggression, emails, or anything else -- thought it worth the slightest attention. It was, in short, a problem too large to discuss, one whose existence Donald Trump (like just about every other Republican) denies, or rather, in his case, labels a “hoax” that he uniquely blames on a Chinese plot to sink America.

So much for insanity (and inanity) when it comes(not just visitors from the American past), and has become the unofficial fourth branch of the U.S. government without either discussion or a vote.

Little that it does -- and it does a lot -- is open to public scrutiny. For their own “safety,” “the People” are to know nothing of its workings (except what it wants them to know). Meanwhile, secrecy of a claustrophobic sort has spread across significant parts of the government. The government classified 92 million documents in 2011 and things seem not to have gotten much better since. In addition, the national security state has been elaborating a body of “secret law” -- including classified rules, regulations, and interpretations of already existing law -- kept from the public and, in some cases, even from congressional
