Interrater reliability of schizoaffective disorder compared with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and unipolar depression - A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Schizoaffective disorder is a common diagnosis in clinical practice but its nosological status has been subject to debate ever since it was conceptualized. Although it is key that diagnostic reliability is sufficient, schizoaffective disorder has been reported to have low interrater reliability. Evidence based on systematic review and meta-analysis methods, however, is lacking. Using a highly sensitive literature search in Medline, Embase, and PsycInfo we identified studies measuring the interrater reliability of schizoaffective disorder in comparison to schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and unipolar disorder. Out of 4126 records screened we included 25 studies reporting on 7912 patients diagnosed by different raters. The interrater reliability of schizoaffective disorder was moderate (meta-analytic estimatestatic final ResolvedCapitalIndexedBond PRODUCT_GOV = CapitalIndexedBond.builder()

Spring Break for local colleges. First of all, they were college kids. So were you at one point and I wonder if the Press Democrat would have liked to hear any of the stuff YOU did back then. Second of all, is anyone surprised that college kids showed up to an ALCOHOL THEMED EVENT DURING SPRING BREAK? The piece is attempting to stir up some sensationalist buzz (and I suppose it’s working if I’m writing about it) on the hot topic of Millennials by purposefully misrepresenting an entire generation. By in blurring the line between college students that fall within the generation’s age range and the ACTUAL ENTIRE GENERATION, the message is a dramatic one – the very same group that is bolstering our industry is bastardizing andinclude, do a quick search and see what else is out there.

Q:

Optimize an image once and avoid doing it again

I have a large respository of images, mostly JPEG, which I'd like to optimize using a library like ImageMagick or a Linux CLI tool like jpegtran (as covered in JPG File Size Optimization - PHP, ImageMagick, & Google's Page Speed), but I don't want to have to track which ones have been optimized already and I don't want to re-optimize every one again later. Is there some sort of flag I could easily add to the file that would make it easy to detect and skip the optimization? Preferably one that would stay with the file when backed up to other filesystems?
E.g.: a small piece of exif data, a filesystem flag, some harmless null bytes added at the end ofthe file, a tool that is already intelligent enough to do this itself, etc..

A:

You could use "extended attributes" which are metadata and stored in the filesystem. Read and write them with xattr:
# Read existing attributes
xattr -l image.png

# Set an optimised flag of your own invention/description
xattr -w optimised true image.png

# Read attributes again
xattr -l image.png
optimised: true

The presence of an extended attribute can be detected in a long listing - it is the @ sign after the permissions:
-rw-r--r--@ 1 mark  staff  275 29 May 07:54 image.png

As you allude in your comments, make sure that any backup programs you use honour the attributes before committing to it as a strategy. FAT-32 filesystems are notoriously poor at this sort of thing - though tar file or similar may survive a

Those who are captured are returned to concentration camps in Libya, where they are imprisoned under conditions that have been described as tantamount to torture, in many cases held for ransom, sold into slavery or murdered.

A particularly foul and crucial role in this imperialist onslaught has been played by an entire coterie of pseudo-left organizations, politicians and academics in Europe and America who amplified and embellished upon the phony pretexts of “humanitarian” intervention to justify a war of imperialist aggression against a former colonial country.

Q:

iPhone SDK File Handler with iOS 4 Background Processes

The "application:applicationDidFinishLaunchingWithOptions:" message does not get called when an application is sitting in the background in iOS 4, and I'm trying to figure out how to be notified when the application is brought back into the foreground by another application.
My application registers itself as a handler for certain file types, and Safari and other supported applications allow passing the files over to my app.  This works great if the app is closed before I try to use it, but fails otherwise.
In my application:applicationDidFinishLaunchingWithOptions: I have:
NSURL *url = (NSURL *)[launchOptions valueForKey:UIApplicationLaunchOptionsURLKey];
if([url isFileURL]) {
}
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;

As stated already, this works great so far for starting the app when it's not sitting in the background - but when I switch back overcovering all UN member states. The research proceeds in three main steps. First, Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) is used to extract the topics of the UN speeches, and therefore semantic information. Each country is then assigned a vector specifying the exposure to each of the topics identified. This intermediate output is then used in to construct a network of countries based on information theoretical metrics where the links capture similar vectorial patterns in the topic distributions. Topology of the networks is then analyzed through network properties like density, path length and clustering. Finally, we identify specific topological features of our networks using the map equation framework to detect communities in our networks of countries.

    **Key Words**: Topic modeling, network science, topology, information theory, map equation


information processing have allowed the study of relationships among entities based on extracted semantics. For example, @waumans2015topology create social networks from the dialogues in the Harry Potter series. @schultz2012strategic provide interesting insights into public policy framing and crises by using the British Petroleum scandal as a case study. The approach has also been used to identify and analyze policy areas [see e.g. @jung2015semantic]. At the same time, all such attempts have focused on the relationships between semantic concepts rather than on the actual actors who communicate them. Our approach aims at addressing this issue through a synergy between machine learning, information theory, and network science.

The goal of this paper is to extract and identify communities of countries based on semantic information extracted from their speeches during the Uniteda vector space featuring topic prevalences or probabilities for each country. Secondly, we harness information theory to build a metric of the similarity of the semantic information extracted from the countries’ speeches. More specifically, we use the normalized mutual information coefficient to understand the extent to which a country’s semantic space can be explained by the semantic space of another country. The mutual information scores are then used to build networks of countries, and their key structural and topological properties are studied over time. We observe significant shifts in such properties during the fall of the Soviet Union, suggesting that a phase transition has occurred across an epistemic and ideological context. In the final topological feature extraction step, we apply the map equation framework and its Infomap search


the UN Bibliographic Information System (UNBIS). Our text corpus contains all speeches in the same language (English). If a speech was delivered in a language other than English, we use the official English version of the speech provided by the UN. Overall, we collected 7,310 statements delivered in GD by heads of state or their representative for the period between 1970 and 2014. The number of countries participating in GD grows from 70 in 1970 to 193 in 2014 in line with the growth of UN membership. On average speeches contain 123 sentences and 945 unique words.

UN General Debate text corpus used in subsequent estimations was created from digitized UN library archives, which were converted into plain text format. Speeches made before 1992 are stored as image copiescent below the OECD average – meaning we are capturing 34 per cent less value in the fastest growing industries in the global economy. We are not taking our share.

In digital exports, our numbers are shocking. We are one-fifth the size of the OECD average. This number should be ringing massive alarm bells.

Speaking at the D61+Live conference in Brisbane this week, Data61 chief executive officer Adrian Turner says Australia is at a cross-roads, and that time is running out.

The developed LC--QTOF-MS method was successfully applied to determine the PK parameters after i.v., i.p. and p.o. administration at a dose level of 10 mg/kg each for omeprazole in mice. During the sample preparation of the PK samples, QC samples were included for the assurance of the bioanalytical run. All the PK samples were within the range of the qualified calibration range (3.02\~6670 ng/mL). Final concentrations were calculated by considering the dilution factors (e.g., 4× and 2× of the concentrations obtained from the brain and plasma,


was observed at a similar time point to the Cmax in plasma, indicating that omeprazole was very rapidly distributed to the brain with no/little lag time. The Kp was calculated to evaluate the efficiency of omeprazole passing through the brain. The ratios between area under the curve (AUC~last~) values from brain and plasma were used for calculating Equation (1). As a result, the Kp value was 0.15 for IV administration of omeprazole, the same value as in the existing literature \[[@B29-life-10-00115],[@B30-life-10-00115]\]. Considering the Kp values of a commercial CNS drug (Kp = 0.1\~24 in mice), the Kp of omeprazole appeared to have poor brain penetration \[[@B31-life-10-00115],[@B32-life-10-00115],[@B33-life-10-00115]\].

Laboratory test results and plain chest radiography findings were normal. Endotracheal intubation was performed because his respiratory status was predicted to deteriorate, although he was well oxygenated and ventilated at that time. He was admitted to the intensive care unit for further management. After admission to the intensive care unit, the upper gastrointestinal tract was examined using a flexible endoscope, and mucosal hyperemia, swelling, hemorrhage, and some necrotic changes extending from the oral cavity to the pharynx and epiglottis were observed. Mild hyperemia was noted in the esophagus ([Fig. 2](#f2-ceem-15-023){ref-type="fig"}); the stomach was not affected.

PERB argued that the dispute came within its exclusive initial jurisdiction and that the City was required to exhaust its administrative remedies prior to seeking relief in the superior court.

Hearings
The matter first came on for hearing on June 2, 2006. With the parties' agreement, and the Union's representation that it would not strike in the interim, the court continued the matter to the following week. One reason for the continuance was to give the court the opportunity to review the briefs and the case law.
The hearing resumed on June 7, 2006. The court began by thanking the parties for agreeing to the continuance, observing that it was "in a better position to be informed on the


the threshold question of mootness. We then consider jurisdiction and exhaustion.

Mootness
A case is moot when the reviewing court cannot provide the parties with practical, effectual relief. (MHC Operating Limited Partnership v. City of San Jose (2003) 106 Cal.App.4th 204, 214, 130 Cal.Rptr.2d 564.) In such cases, the appeal generally should be dismissed. (Ibid.)
As both parties recognize, even if a case is technically moot, the court has inherent power to decide it where the issues presented are important and of continuing interest. (Burch v. George (1994) 7 Cal.4th 246, 253, fn. 4, 27 Cal.Rptr.2d 165, 866 P.2d 92.) That is particularly true when the issue is likely to recur yet evade review. (See, e.g., NBC Subsidiary (KNBC-TV), Inc. v. Superior Court (1999) 20 Cal.4th 1178, 1190, fn. 6, 86warrant PERB jurisdiction, the conduct at issue must implicate the MMBA. (See El Rancho, supra, 33 Cal.3d. at p. 957, 192 Cal.Rptr. 123, 663 P.2d 893.) A necessary first step is identifying that conduct.

A. What conduct is at issue here?
In determining whether the challenged activity implicates the statute, we disregard the parties' labels. A party "may not, through artful pleading, evade PERB's exclusive jurisdiction." (San Francisco, supra, 151 Cal.App.4th at p. 945, 60 Cal.Rptr.3d 516 [rejecting the city's argument that "PERB does not have jurisdiction because its complaint only alleges a violation of the city charter, not ... any unfair practice under the MMBA"].) "It is the conduct being regulated, not the formal description of governing legal standards, that is the proper focus of concern." (Motor Coach Employees


challenges the adequacy of the available administrative remedies, saying: "PERB is incapable of providing the kind of immediate relief that the City requires in this case."
We reject that challenge. As explained in the San Diego case, the issue is whether PERB can furnish relief equivalent to that available in court. (San Diego, supra, 24 Cal.3d at p. 9, 154 Cal.Rptr. 893, 593 P.2d 838.) Here, we conclude, it can.
First, as a practical matter, "PERB possesses `broad' remedial powers enabling it `to take action and make determinations as are necessary to effectuate the policies of the statutes it administers." (International Federation, supra, 40 Cal.App.4th at p. 679, 46 Cal.Rptr.2d 813.) As has been said of a teachers' strike, it "does not present insurmountable relief problems, PERB having broad powers,the potential for irreparable injury and because filing with PERB would have been futile under the circumstances." (Id. at p. 166, 6 Cal. Rptr.2d 714.) As to the first point, the court observed: "The irreparable injury exception has been rarely applied." (Id. at p. 170, 6 Cal.Rptr.2d 714.) But the court nevertheless felt compelled to apply the exception there: "Because of the unprecedented nature of the fiscal crisis faced by the state, the urgent need for resolution of these issues prior to the end of the year, and the great potential for irreparable harm in the nature of increased layoffs of state employees, we believe the failure of the unions to exhaust their administrative remedy by filing an unfair practice charge with PERB should be excused."

The Sufi Path is a process of amanesis (remembrance, realization). In pre-eternity, God asked the spirits: Alastu bi Rabikum (Am I not your Lord)? When we come into this material existence, we forget about pre-eternity and the task of life is to remember our way back to the truth concerning the nature of our essential relationship with God. This process of remembering or recollecting is known as amanesis.

In 1955, Solomon Asch, a
mentor of Stanley Milgram, performed an interesting experiment which
demonstrated the existence of a powerful force at work in groups ... a force
that likely had been suspected for many years but stood in need of empirical
verification. Ostensibly, the Asch experiment was a simple perceptual task.

Four lines were presented
on two viewing cards. One card displayed justSome of the subjects who gave incorrect answers were
aware of doing so, but later on, when they were interviewed by the
experimenters, they indicated they didn’t want to ‘rock the boat,’ or create
conflict. Other subjects who gave incorrect answers subsequently claimed that
they were not aware of doing so and attributed their mistakes to poor eyesight.

Asch discovered that
there were different structural factors which seemed to impact the experiment.
For example, when the incorrect response of the confederates was not unanimous,
the number of subjects who would comply with the response of the majority
dramatically decreased to between 5 and 10% of the overall number of trial
responses involving incorrect answers -- down from the one-third percentage
noted earlier.

If even one confederate
gave a response that was different from the other confederates, subjects were
more likely to provide


a correct match in the perceptual task. This was true
quite independently of whether, or not, the dissenting response involved a
correct match between the ‘standard line’ and the ‘comparison line’ ... in
other words, dissent rather than correctness seemed to be the deciding factor.

The Asch experiment
involved a simple, objective perceptual task in which the difference between
the incorrect lines among the ’comparison lines’ and the standard line was so
clear that subjects only missed identifying the correct match in less than 1%
of the cases. What if the task were something that was: More complicated, less
‘objective,’ while also being more emotionally and psychologically engaging?

The foregoing questions
were often asked of my students during the introductory psychology courses
which I taught. The same questions can be directed to the American public.

In 2003, Tony Smith, who
played basketballhim by, among others, the United States.

When Winston Churchill advocated
the use of chemical weapons against Iraqis in 1920 that act, apparently, was
the action of a civilized country. When Hussein did so with U.S. assistance in
1988, this became evidence which demonstrated what kind of a pathological
monster Hussein was.

The act of gassing the
Kurds was pathological. However, the United States government was complicit in
that pathology, just as the British government committed pathological behavior
in the earlier case involving Iraq.

When Iraq served U.S.
‘national interests’ by engaging with Iran in an eight year bloodbath, the
United States government supported Iraq militarily and financially – except, of
course, in the little matter of the Iran-Contra scandal in which the United
States illegally sold arms to Iran in order to get cash to illegally help the
Contras who were fighting


of today.

Like the Chinese
Communist process of re-education – which is a way of power -- the notion of
compulsory education in America – which is also a way of power – is intended to
force people to be complicit in their own conceptual and ideological conversion
in order to serve the purposes of ideologically-driven governance. The way of power – whether Chinese or
American in character – does not want people to be in control of their own
learning processes ... people must be ‘educated’ in accordance with the hermeneutical
template set down by the ‘way of power.’

In 1967 Martin Seligman
and Steve Maier conducted an experiment at the University of Pennsylvania. Like
the experiments performed by Stanley Milgram (memory/learning/punishment) and
Philip Zimbardo (prisoners), the Seligman/Maier experiment would not be
permitted in today’s ethical environment that establishes thepolitical leaders/parties. Some of the terms which allude
to those techniques are: bounded choice, thought-reform, indoctrination,
propaganda, undue influence, menticide, and information disease.

Irrespective of what word
one uses to refer to those techniques, they all have a common purpose ...
although the underling methods which are used to implement those techniques might
differ considerably from case to case. That purpose is: To induce people to
cede their moral and intellectual authority to a given individual, party,
organization, or form of governance.

So-called
representational democracy is nothing more, or less, than getting the
electorate – or an appropriate percentage thereof – to cede the agency of the various
members of that electorate to a given candidate. The problem with this is that
very rarely, if ever, do those candidates represent the people who vote for
them ... especially, when the aims and


business in which the first casualty tends to be
the truth.

Marines are trained to
obey orders. Those orders are shaped by presidents, politicians, and military
authorities who do not necessarily feel obligated to share their purposes and
ideas with “grunts.”

Marines are trained to
trust their superiors just as cult members are trained to do so. Marines are
trained to follow orders without question, just as cult members are.

As is true in many cults,
there are all kinds of secrets in the military. Secret operations, classified
materials, information that is on a ‘need to know’ basis, and so on, are all part
of military life – both within and outside of the Marine Corps.

Marines can be trained in
the art and technology of killing. However, until a person has actually taken
the life of another person, then contrary to whatinterest will be extracted as well. Any disagreements will be discussed and judged between 2 reviewers. The final results of the extraction and further disagreements will be checked and arbitrated by the third reviewer.

### 2.3.3. Assessment of risk of bias in included studies

The risk of bias of the included articles will be evaluated by 3 independent raters according to the tool recommended by Cochrane Handbook V.5.1.0, which consists of the following 7 domains: random sequence generation, allocation concealment, blinding of participants, personnel and outcome, incomplete outcome data addressed, selective reporting, and other bias. The quality of the reporting will be categorized into 3 levels: low risk of bias, unclear risk of bias, or high risk of bias. Discrepancies will be discussed among the 3 raters to come to


considered significant. Further subgroup analysis will be conducted to investigate the potential causes of heterogeneity.

### 2.3.7. Assessment of reporting bias

If sufficient studies are involved in the review (more than 10 trials), we will generate visual asymmetry on a funnel plot using Egger methods, which aims to detect reporting biases. Regarding the methodological quality, all the eligible trials will be included.

### 2.3.8. Data synthesis

RevMan software (Version 5.3, Copenhagen: The Nordic Cochrane Center, The Cochrane Collaboration, 2014) will be used to compute the data synthesis carefully when sufficient evidence proves that a meta-analysis is suitable. The fixed-effects model will be applied for data synthesis with low heterogeneity (*I*^2^ \< 50%). If not, the random-effects model will be conducted.

### 2.3.9. Subgroup analysis

According to different control interventions, inconsistent participants characteristic, and outcome measures, subgroupprograms becomes an important issue.
Moreover, many enterprises provide services via queue based applications. Some of them use the enterprise service bus (ESB) to transmit message.
Now, queue based applications are widely used in virtual machine environment. Enterprises need a systematic, low cost and simple method for trouble-shooting.

In U.S. Pat. No. 4,666,634, 2β-hydroxy and alkoxy (e.g., ED-71) analogs of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 have been described and examined by Chugai group as potential drugs for osteoporosis and as antitumor agents. See also Okano et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 163, 1444 (1989). Other 2-substituted (with hydroxyalkyl, e.g., ED-120, and fluoroalkyl groups) A-ring analogs of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 have also been prepared and tested (Miyamoto et al., Chem. Pharm. Bull. 41, 1111 (1993); Nishii et al., Osteoporosis Int. Suppl. 1, 190 (1993); Posner et al., J. Org. Chem. 59, 7855 (1994), and J. Org. Chem. 60, 4617 (1995)).
Recently, 2-substituted analogs of 1α,25-dihydroxy-19-nor-vitamin D3 have also been synthesized, i.e. compounds substituted at 2-position with hydroxy or alkoxy groups (DeLuca et al., U.S. Pat. No. 5,536,713), which exhibit interesting and selectiveconformation of the cyclohexanediol ring A. However, introduction of the 2-methylene group into 19-nor-vitamin D carbon skeleton changes the character of its 1α- and 3β-A-ring hydroxyls. Both hydroxyls are allylic to the exocyclic methylene group similar to the 1α-hydroxyl group (crucial for biological activity) in the molecule of the natural hormone, 1α,25-(OH)2D3.
2-methylene-19-nor-20(S)-1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 is known, and this compound exhibits a desired, and highly advantageous, pattern of biological activity which has been reported in DeLuca et al U.S. Pat. No. 5,843,928. This compound is characterized by intestinal calcium transport activity, similar to that of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, but exhibiting very high activity, as compared to 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, in its ability to mobilize calcium from bone. Hence, this compound is highly specific in its calcemic activity. Its preferential activity on mobilizing

Life After Trauma program first step towards recovery

Toronto, October 6, 2015

By Greg Winson

Trauma suffered in childhood – such as emotional or physical abuse – can significantly affect a person’s physical and mental health well into adulthood. To help these people finally heal, social workers in the St. Michael’s Academic Family Health Teams began a Life After Trauma program that has treated more than 200 people.

The program teaches life skills in a group setting over 10 weeks. For most it’s their first interaction with a mental health setting.

“We give people the skills to start to understand how their beliefs and behaviours are connected to the events of the past,” said Celia Schwartz, a social worker based at the Health Centre at 80 Bond.

Patients may have physical ailments suchfor Depp's exoneration.

What this demonstrates now is the dangerous irrationality in the #MeToo movement, scrapping evidence for just "believe women" identity politics. This dreck is now leading to places like this wretched Heard situation, taking advantage of its illogic to ride the trend for personal advantage, quite a vindictive one. As things stand now, Depp is the one who looks vindicated. Heard looks horrible — and so does the political trend she caught a ride on.

414 F.Supp. 176 (1976)
Warren James MOITY, Sr.,
v.
LOUISIANA STATE BAR ASSOCIATION et al.
Civ. A. No. 75-2193.
United States District Court, E. D. Louisiana.
March 3, 1976.
Warren James Moity, Sr., pro se.
Carl J. Barbier, William P. Curry, Jr., Asst. Atty. Gen., New Orleans, La., for defendants.
Before AINSWORTH, Circuit Judge, and BOYLE and RUBIN, District Judges.

*177 MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
BOYLE, District Judge:
Plaintiff in this proceeding, Warren James Moity, Sr., has applied for admission to the Bar of Louisiana for a second time. He withdrew an earlier application in 1960, during the course of a hearing to determine whether he possessed "good moral character," one of the prerequisites of admission. At that time, he claims to have completed three years of legal study under the supervision of a licensed Louisiana attorney. Such supervisory study


satisfied the educational prerequisite of admission until the admission standards were amended in 1959. The new requirement, which Moity cannot satisfy, is that an applicant produce evidence of graduation from a law school approved by the American Bar Association. Plaintiff does not dispute the representation of the defendant Bar Association that, with the abolition of the old rule in 1959, persons who had relied upon it and commenced the study of law under a Louisiana attorney would be allowed to sit for the Bar examination until June of 1965, which, of course, Moity did not do.
In April of 1975, Moity wrote to the Committee on Bar Admissions of the Louisiana State Bar Association, requesting an application form for the taking of the State Bar exam to be heldin July. He did not complete the form forwarded to him, however, but on May 7, 1975 petitioned the Louisiana Supreme Court for a writ of mandamus ordering that he be allowed to take the exam. On June 13, 1975, the Court refused the application for the writ, stating that plaintiff had failed to comply with the admission requirements set forth in the Bar Association's Articles of Incorporation.[1]
Asserting jurisdiction under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, Moity now sues the Louisiana Supreme Court and its individual Justices as well as the Louisiana Bar Association. In his original complaint, he seeks injunctive and declaratory relief in addition to monetary damages of $1 million. The constitutional claims urged are 1) that his right of privacy was violated by a forced waiver of


as these become warranted by the changing conditions of the profession.[4] Just so, that section of the statute which contains the requisites of admission to the Louisiana Bar provides that
[e]very applicant . . . must meet the following requirements until such time as they may be changed by the Board of Governors of this [Bar] Association with the approval of the Supreme Court . . ..[5]
That the particular change in question was effected reasonably vis-a-vis plaintiff is clear from the record. Moity had finished three years of supervised legal study when the new rule was enacted in 1959 which required a formal legal education. Thus, he was within the class of persons who would be qualified to sit for the Bar examination until 1965, the new rule notwithstanding.were randomly assigned. The red curve represents the resultant of four oscillations of periods 600 ± 55, 240 ± 21, 113 ± 21 and 60 ± 6 genes, which were estimated from the averaged autocorrelation deconvolution. The horizontal scale represents the distance between two genes (the difference of their ranks on the chromosome). The green, blue and red curves have the same vertical scale. The red curve was shifted for readability. Whereas the green signal shows no regularity, long-range correlations can be seen in the blue signal (maxima at *ca*. 200, 650, 850, 1300, 1500 and 2050 inter gene distance and minima at *ca*. 550, 900 and 1750--1950).](1471-2164-6-84-2){#F2}

The averaged linear autocorrelation of changes in gene expression varies as a function of the inter-gene distance. The green curve in


of 557 ± 30 kb and 100 ± 18 kb). In *B. subtilis*we observe four oscillations (with periods of 600 ± 55 kb, 240 ± 21 kb, 113 ± 21 kb and 60 ± 6 kb). Rocha et al \[[@B17]\] analysed the distribution of the genes involved in sulphur metabolism in the genome of *E.coli*and found a number of them to be clustered into statistically significant islands located 650 kb apart. In their study of transcriptional activities in *E.coli*, Jeong et al \[[@B9]\] have observed significant correlations for genes located 690 kb or 523 kb apart (depending on physiological conditions) together with a clump of periods around 115 kb.

### New results

• We show here that the long-range and short-range correlations are similar in *E. coli*and *B. subtilis*. Thattranscribed DNA \[[@B23]\]. It can therefore be speculated that the expression of the genes in large spirals leads to the super-coiling of the neighbouring small spirals, hence to the impossibility of opening its DNA and to its transcription.

The pattern of maxima is more difficult to explain since it does not correspond to multiples of a single inter-gene distance. In the case of *B. subtilis*for example, the maxima are at inter-gene distances that are multiples of 650 and multiples of 650 plus 200 (200; 650, 850; 1300, 1500). We speculate that this pattern is a consequence of the dynamic of the nucleoid structure but we currently have no explanation for it. Current work is in progress to try to explain the maxima and minima of the correlation function, which


the inter-gene distance is a superimposition of several periodicities (from small to large scale). To identify these periodicities the averaged autocorrelation signal was deconvoluated with Peakfit 4.06 (Jandel Scientific, San Rafael, CA). The percentage of the autocorrelation that this representation explains is calculated as follow:

![](1471-2164-6-84-i4.gif)

with *y*the autocorrelation vector and *x*the signal generated by the sum of the deconvolution periodicities and *N*the number of genes.

The present invention relates generally to the snow plow field, and, more particularly, to a mobile platform for holding a snow plow while it is being attached or detached from a vehicle and also for storing and displaying snow plows.
In the past, snow plows have usually been connected with a vehicle manually, and this has usually required more than one person to accomplish. Moreover, snow plows are heavy and are impossible or difficult for a crew to lift and move manually, as has been required at times in the past.
Snow plows are usually connected to vehicles which are used for other purposes when the plow is not attached, and therefore virtually all vehicles which are used to push a snow plow are detachable and are usually not attached

admissible. Since $f$ and $\eta$ are given but we do not know the reflector $\sigma$, we do not know a priori if holds. However, assuming that the input and output energies satisfy $$\int_{\Omega}f(x)\,dx\geq \dfrac{1}{C}\eta(D),$$ where $C$ is an appropriate constant depending only on the distance between the farthest point on the target and the source, and from how close to the source we want to place the reflector, we will prove that there exists a reflector $\sigma$ satisfying ; see condition and Theorems \[discretethmgeq\] and \[thm:solutionforgeneralmeasure\]. In particular, we will see that if the target $D$ has a point very far away from the source, then the constant $1/C$ will be very large and therefore, for a given $\eta$ we will need more energy $f$ at the outset$ x$, $\rho_d(x)$ is strictly increasing function of $d$.

\[propnorm\] The outer unit normal $\nu_d$ to the ellipsoid $E_d(P)$ at the point $\rho_d(x)x$ is given by $$\label{nueq}
\nu_d(x)=\dfrac{x-\varepsilon\, m}{|x-\varepsilon\, m|}.$$

Let $y=\rho_d(x)\,x$, then $x=y/|y|$ and from equation (\[ellipse\]) $|y|-\varepsilon\, m\cdot y =d$. So the ellipsoid is a level set of the function $h(y)$=$|y| - \varepsilon\, m\cdot y$, and so by computing the gradient of $h$ the formula immediately follows.

From the law of reflection we obtain the following well known fact.

\[snell\] Given an ellipsoid $E_d(P)$ with foci $O$, $P$, each ray emitted from $O$ is reflected off to $P$.

Reflectors and reflector measures {#sec:reflectorsandreflectormeasures}
=================================

In this section we introduce the definition of reflector and reflector measure, and prove some properties that will be used later in the paper.

\[def:definitionofreflector\] Let $\Omega\subseteq S^{2}$ such that $|\partial


\Omega|=0$. The surface $\sigma=\{\rho(x)x\}_{x\in \bar{\Omega}}$ is a reflector from $\bar{\Omega}$ to $D$ if for each $x_0\in \bar{\Omega}$ there exists an ellipsoid $E_d(P)$ with $P\in D$ that supports $\sigma$ at $\rho(x_0)\,x_0$. That is, $E_d(P)$ is given by $\rho_d(x)=\dfrac{d}{1-\varepsilon \,x\cdot m}$ with $m=\dfrac{\overrightarrow{OP}}{OP}$ and satisfies $\rho(x)\leq \rho_d(x)$ for all $x\in \bar{\Omega}$ with equality at $x=x_0$.

Notice that each reflector is concave and therefore continuous.

The reflector mapping associated with a reflector $\sigma$ is given by $$\mathcal N_\sigma(x_0)=\{P\in D: \text{there exists $E_d(P)$ supporting $\sigma$ at $\rho(x_0)x_0$}\};$$ and the tracing mapping is $$\tau_\sigma(P)=\{x\in \bar{\Omega}: P\in \mathcal N_\sigma(x) \}.$$

We prove the following lemma of crucial importance for the definition of reflector measure. For its proof, we use a real analysis result proved afterwards in Lemma \[lm:densitypointslebesgue\].

\[lem:aleksandrovforreflectors\] Suppose $D$ is contained in a plane $\Pi$ inpolar radius $h_{z_0}(x)$, that supports $\sigma$ at $\rho(z_0)\,z_0$. That is, $h_{z_0}(x)\geq \rho(x)$ for all $x\in \bar{\Omega}$ and $h_{z_0}(z_0)=\rho(z_0)$. This plane is unique because $z_0$ is not a singular point of $\sigma$, and therefore $0\notin H_{z_0}$. Since $\Pi$ is not a supporting plane, we have that $H_{z_0}\neq \Pi$, and then the sets $A^+=\{x\in S^2:h_{z_0}(x)\geq w(x)\}$ and $A_-=\{x\in S^2:h_{z_0}(x)<w(x)\}$ have both non empty interiors.

Consider the line $\Pi\cap H_{z_0}:=\ell$, which passes through $\rho(z_0)\,z_0$, and the plane $J$ containing the line $\ell$ and the origin. The point $\rho(z_0)\,z_0\in J$. For each $r>0$, the plane $J$ divides each spherical ball $B_r(z_0)$ into two disjoint pieces $B_r(z_0)^+$ and $B_r(z_0)^-$ having the same spherical measure, $B_r(z_0)=B_r(z_0)^+\cup B_r(z_0)^-$, and with $B_r(z_0)^+=B_r(z_0)\cap A^+$ and $B_r(z_0)^-
=B_r(z_0)\cap A^-$. We have for $x\in F$, that $h_{z_0}(x)\geq \rho(x)=w(x)$, so $F\subseteq A^+$,


definition of eccentricity, $\varepsilon_n=\dfrac{OP_n}{c_n}$ with $c_n=OM_n+M_nP_n$ where $M_n=\rho_n(x)x$. Since $\rho_n(x)\to \rho(x)$ we get that $c_n\to c_0=OM_0+M_0P_0$ with $M_0=\rho(x)x$.

We conclude that $$\lim_{n \to +\infty}\int_{\bar \Omega \setminus H} h(\mathcal{N}_{\sigma_n}(x))\,f(x)\, \dfrac{ x\cdot \nu_n(x)}{\rho_n ^2(x)}dx=\int_{\bar \Omega \setminus H} h(\mathcal{N_{\sigma}}(x)) \,f(x)\,\dfrac{ x\cdot \nu(x) }{\rho^2(x)}dx,$$ and so $$\lim_{n \to \infty} \int_D h \,d\mu_n = \int_D h \,d\mu \qquad \text{for each $h \in C(D)$.}$$

\[continui\] If $D=\{P_1,P_2,...,P_N\}$ and $\sigma_n,\sigma,\mu_n,\mu$ are as in Proposition \[weaklem\], then $$\lim_{n \to +\infty} \mu_n(P_i)=\mu(P_i).$$

Define $h_i(P_j)=\delta_{i}^{j}$, $1\leq i,j\leq N$. Since $D$ is discrete, $h$ is continuous on $D$, then by the previous proposition $$\lim_{n \to +\infty} \mu_n(P_i)=\lim_{n \to +\infty} \int_D h_i(y)d\mu_n(y)=\int_D h_i(y)d\mu(y)=\mu(P_i).$$

Physical visibility issues {#subset:physicalvisibilityissues}
--------------------------

With the Definition \[def:definitionofreflector\] of reflector, the reflected rays might cross the reflector to reach the target, in other words, the reflector might obstruct the target in certainand $d_i \geq \delta\,M$ for $1\leq i \leq N$. If $f\in L^1(\bar{\Omega})$ and $f>0$ a.e then $$\label{cond}
\mu_w(D)=\int_{\bar{\Omega}}f(x)\,\dfrac{ x\cdot \nu_w(x)}{\rho_w ^2 (x)}\,dx > C(\delta,\delta ',M)
\int_{\bar{\Omega}} f(x)\,dx$$ where $C(\delta,\delta',M)$ is a constant depending only on $\delta$, $\delta'$ and $M$.

From inequality (\[impineq\]), $\rho_{d_1}(x) \leq \dfrac{d_1}{1-c_\delta} \leq \dfrac{\delta'\,M}{1-c_\delta}$, and so by the definition of reflector $\rho_w(x)\leq \dfrac{\delta'\,M}{1-c_\delta}$. From Proposition \[lipschitz\], the set of singular points of the reflector $\rho_w$ has measure zero. So for each $x \in \Omega$ not a singular point, there exists $1\leq i \leq N$ such that $$\label{eq:inequalityatnonsingularpoints}
 x\cdot \nu_w(x) = x\cdot \nu_{d_i}(x)
= \dfrac{1-\varepsilon_i \, x\cdot m_i}{|x-\varepsilon_i m_i|}\geq \dfrac{1-\varepsilon_i}{1+\varepsilon_i}
\geq \dfrac{1-c_{\delta}}{1+c_{\delta}}$$ by Propositions \[propineq\] and \[propnorm\]. Therefore $\dfrac{x \cdot \nu_w(x)}{\rho_w ^2 (x)}\geq \dfrac{(1-c_\delta)^3}{(1+c_{\delta})\,(\delta'\,M)^2}:=C(\delta,\delta ',M)$ for a.e. $x$, and consequently $$\mu_w(D)=\int_{\bar{\Omega}}f(x)\,\dfrac{ x\cdot \nu_w(x)}{\rho_w ^2 (x)}\,dx \geq C(\delta,\delta ',M)\int_{\bar{\Omega}} f(x)\,dx.$$ To prove


\in \mathcal{D}$.

We will only prove part $(2)$ because part (1) is similar. There exists a sequence $w_n \in \mathcal{D}$ such that: $\lim_{n \to \infty} \mu_n(P_1)= \inf_{w \in \mathcal{D}} \mu_w(P_1)$. By Proposition \[classproperties\], $\mathcal{D}$ is compact, then there exist a subsequence $w_{n_k}$ converging to $w_0\in \mathcal{D}$, and $\dfrac{\delta M}{1+c_\delta}\leq \rho_{w_{n_k}}
\leq \dfrac{2}{1-c_\delta}
\sqrt{\dfrac{||f||_{L^1(\bar{\Omega})}}{g_1}}$. We conclude from Corollary \[continui\] that: $$\mu_{w_0}(P_1) = \lim_{n \to \infty}\mu_{w_{n_k}}(P_1)=\inf_{w \in \mathcal{C}} \mu_w(P_1).$$

In the following theorem we show that among all solutions in $\mathcal{C}$, the solution that overshoots the minimum amount at $P_1$ is $\bar{w}$. Moreover, if $\bar{\Omega}$ is connected then $\bar{w}$ is the unique such solution.

\[uniqueness\] Let $w=(d_1,d_2,...,d_N)\in \mathcal{C}$ and $\mu$ its corresponding reflector measure. Then $$\bar{\mu}(D) \leq \mu(D),$$ where $\bar \mu$ is the reflector measure corresponding to $\bar w$. Moreover, if $\bar{\Omega}$ is connectednor diffuse, any such curve is homotopic to a curve of one of these two types. The main results used to establish this are presented in $\S 6$. In §7, we decide when it is possible to deform a circle traversed $k$ times into a circle traversed $k+2$ times in ${\ensuremath{\mathscr{L}}}_{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_0}^{+\infty}$. It is seen that this is possible if and only if $k\geq n-1={\left\lfloor\frac{\pi}{\rho_0}\right\rfloor}$ (where $\rho_0=\operatorname{arccot}{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_0$), and an explicit homotopy when this is the case is presented. It is also shown that the set of condensed curves in ${\ensuremath{\mathscr{L}}}_{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_0}^{+\infty}$ with fixed rotation number $k< n-1$ is a connected component of this space.

The proofs of the main theorems are given in §8, after most of the work has been done. A direct characterization of the components of ${\ensuremath{\mathscr{L}}}_{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_0}^{+\infty}$ $({\ensuremath{\kappa}}_0\in


not $C^2$. For instance, we may wish to construct a curve ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ of positive geodesic curvature by concatenating two arcs of circles ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}_1$ and ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}_2$ of different radii, as in fig. [\[F:circles\]]{} below. Even though the resulting curve is regular, it is not possible to assign any meaningful value to the curvature of ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ at $p$. However, we may approximate ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ as well as we like by a smooth curve which does have everywhere positive geodesic curvature. We shall adopt a more complicated definition precisely in order to avoid using convolutions or other tools all the time to smoothen such a curve.

![A curve on ${\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^2$ obtained by concatenation of arcs of circles of different radii. The dashed line represents the equator.[]{data-label="F:circles"}](circles.pdf)

A function $f\colon [a,b]\to {\ensuremath{\mathbf{R}}}$ is said to beof (\[P:arbitrary\]) shows that $$    {\ensuremath{\mathscr{L}}}_{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_1}^{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_2}(\cdot,\cdot) {\approx}{\ensuremath{\mathbf{SO}}}_3\times  {\ensuremath{\mathscr{L}}}_{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_1}^{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_2}(I,\cdot).$$ Hence, ${\ensuremath{\mathscr{L}}}_{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_1}^{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_2}(\cdot,\cdot)$ is homeomorphic to ${\mathbf{E}}\times {\ensuremath{\mathbf{SO}}}_3$, and has the homotopy type of ${\ensuremath{\mathbf{SO}}}_3$.

Thus, the topology of the spaces ${\ensuremath{\mathscr{L}}}_{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_1}^{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_2}(Q,\cdot)$, ${\ensuremath{\mathscr{L}}}_{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_1}^{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_2}(\cdot,Q)$ and ${\ensuremath{\mathscr{L}}}_{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_1}^{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_2}(\cdot,\cdot)$ is uninteresting. We will have nothing else to say about these spaces.

### The role of the bounds on the curvature {#the-role-of-the-bounds-on-the-curvature .unnumbered}

Having analyzed the significance of condition (i) on p. , let us examine next condition (ii). Notice that we have allowed the bounds ${\ensuremath{\kappa}}_1$, ${\ensuremath{\kappa}}_2$ on the curvature to be infinite. The definition of radius of curvature is extended accordingly by setting $\operatorname{arccot}(+\infty)=0$ and $\operatorname{arccot}(-\infty)=\pi$. We can then rephrase (ii) as:

1.  $\rho(t)\in (\rho_2,\rho_1)$ for each $t\in [0,1]$.

Here $\rho$ is the radius of curvature of ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ and $\rho_i=\operatorname{arccot}{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_i\in [0,\pi]$, $i=1,2$. The main result


${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_b$ satisfies ${\ensuremath{\kappa}}_1<{\ensuremath{\kappa}}<{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_2$ a.e. on $\phi_s({\ensuremath{\alpha}},{\ensuremath{\beta}})$. Since $\lim_{s\to b}\mu(E_s)=b$, this argument shows that ${\ensuremath{\kappa}}_1<{\ensuremath{\kappa}}<{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_2$ a.e. on $[0,b]$. We claim also that $\Phi(b)=Q$. To see this, let $\bar{{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}}_s\colon [0,b]\to \mathfrak{so}_3$ be the extension of ${\ensuremath{\Lambda}}_{s}$ by zero to all of $[0,b]$. If $\bar\Phi_s$ is the solution to the initial value problem $\dot{\bar\Phi}_s=\bar\Phi_s\bar{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}_s$, $\bar\Phi_s(0)=I$, we have $\Phi_s(b)=\Phi_{s}(s)=Q$. Since $\bar{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}_s$ converges to ${\ensuremath{\Lambda}}$ in the $L^2$-norm, it follows from continuous dependence on the parameters of a differential equation that $$        {\left\vert\Phi(b)-Q\right\vert}=\lim_{s\to b}{\left\vert\Phi(b)-\Phi_s(b)\right\vert}=0.$$

The curve ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_b$ satisfies ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_s{\preccurlyeq}{\ensuremath{\gamma}}_b$ for any $s\leq b$ by construction. Conversely, if this condition is satisfied then must hold, showing that ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_b$ is the unique curve with this property. This completes the proof.

### Adding loops {#adding-loops .unnumbered}

This subsection presents adaptations of a few conceptst_1+s\leq t\leq t_2+s \\
             \exp\big(\tfrac{\chi_1}{2}s\big)z_2\exp\big(\tfrac{{\ensuremath{\lambda}}_1}{2}(t-t_2-s)\big)  &   \text{ if }\quad t_2+s\leq t\leq t_2+2s \\
             \exp\big(\tfrac{\chi_1}{2}s\big)\exp\big(\tfrac{\chi_2}{2}s\big){\tilde}{\Phi}(t-2s)  &   \text{ if }\quad t_2+2s\leq t\leq T+2s
        \end{cases}$$ where we have used to write $$        \big(z_1\exp\big(\tfrac{s{\ensuremath{\lambda}}_1}{2}\big)\big)\big(z_1^{-1}{\tilde}{\Phi}(t-s)\big)=\exp\big(\tfrac{s\chi_1}{2}\big){\tilde}{\Phi}(t-s),$$ which yields the expression for ${\tilde}{\Phi}(t)$ when $t\in [t_1, t_1+s]$, and similarly for the interval $[t_2+2s,T+2s]$. In particular, we deduce that the final lifted frame is: $$        {\tilde}{\Phi}_s(T+2s)= \exp\big(\tfrac{s\chi_1}{2}\big)\exp\big(\tfrac{s\chi_2}{2}\big){\tilde}{\Phi}(T)={\tilde}{\Phi}(T),$$ as $\chi_2=-\chi_1$ by hypothesis. This proves that each ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_s$ has the correct final frame. The


then, by (\[L:closedhemisphere\]) and (\[L:Steinitz\]), we can find a 3-dimensional simplex with vertices in ${\operatorname{Im}}(C_{\ensuremath{\gamma}})$ containing $0\in {\ensuremath{\mathbf{R}}}^3$ in its interior. If $\eta\in {\ensuremath{\mathscr{L}}}_{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_0}^{+\infty}(I)$ is sufficiently close to ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ then we can also find a simplex ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}_\eta$ with vertices in ${\operatorname{Im}}(C_\eta)$ such that $0\in \operatorname{Int}{\ensuremath{\Delta}}_\eta$. It follows that $\bar{{\ensuremath{\mathscr{S}}}}{\subset}{\ensuremath{\mathscr{O}}}$.

Let ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}\in {\ensuremath{\mathscr{O}}}$. Define a family $T^s\colon {\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^2\to {\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^2$ of Möbius transformations by , where $\operatorname{pr}\colon {\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^2\to {\ensuremath{\mathbf{R}}}^2$ denotes stereographic projection from $-h_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}$, and $h_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ is the barycenter of the set of closed hemispheres which contain $C={\operatorname{Im}}(C_{\ensuremath{\gamma}})$ (cf. (\[L:causticbarycenter\])). Then ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_s=T^s\circ {\ensuremath{\gamma}}\in {\ensuremath{\mathscr{S}}}$ for all $s\in (0,1)$ by (\[C:positivecondensed\]), establishing the reverse inclusion $\bar {{\ensuremath{\mathscr{S}}}}{\supset}{\ensuremath{\mathscr{O}}}$. The proof of the assertion about ${\ensuremath{\mathscr{O}}}_\nu$ is analogous and will be omitted.

To prove (b), let ${\ensuremath{\varepsilon}}>0$ be such that ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_s=T^s\circ {\ensuremath{\gamma}}\in {\ensuremath{\mathscr{U}}}$ for all $s\inIn the latter case, $d(\mu_z(0),{\partial}A^1_-)=R$, $\theta^2_-(z)=-R$ and $\theta^2_+(z)=0$. If $\mu_z(0){\notin}{\partial}A^1_+$, let $\theta^2_+(z)>0$ be the smallest $t\in (0,R]$ such that either $\mu_z(t)\in {\partial}A^1_+$ or $d(\mu_z(t),{\partial}A^1_-)=R+\frac{1}{2}$. Suppose $\mu_z(\theta^2_+(z))\in {\partial}A^1_+$. Then $\mu_z(\theta^2_+(z))\in A^2$ (because it lies a distance $\leq R+\frac{1}{2}$ from ${\partial}A_-^1$), while $\mu_z(t){\notin}A^1{\supset}A^2$ for $t>\theta^2_+(z)$. Thus, $\mu_z(\theta^2_+(z))\in {\partial}A^2$. If $d(\mu_z(\theta^2_+(z)),{\partial}A^1_-)=R+\frac{1}{2}$, then again $\mu_z(\theta^2_+(z))\in A^2$ while $\mu_z(t){\notin}A^2$ for $t>\theta^2_+(z)$, since, for such $t$, $d(\mu_z(t),{\partial}A^1_-)>R+\frac{1}{2}$ by the second consequence. Moreover, in both cases $\mu_z(t)$ does not intersect ${\partial}A^2$ again for $t>0$. This proves (a), (b), (c) and also establishes .

Since $${\partial}A^2={\bigcup}_{z\in {\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^1_\nu}\mu_z\cap {\partial}A^2,$$ (a) implies the first assertion of (d). In turn, (b) and (c) together immediately imply that $$R\leq d(p,{\partial}A^2_-)=d(p,{\partial}A^1_-)\leq R+\frac{1}{2}$$ for any $p\in {\partial}A^2_+$. That $d(q,{\partial}A^2_+)\leq d(q,{\partial}A^1_+)$ for any $q\in {\partial}A^2_-$ follows from the fact that ${\partial}A^2_+$ lies below ${\partial}A^1_+$,


by choosing $m,\,n\geq N$ and a sufficiently large $N\in {\ensuremath{\mathbf{N}}}$. Hence, $r\colon {\ensuremath{\mathscr{A}}}\to {\ensuremath{\mathscr{G}}}$ is a retraction.

\[C:contratil\] The space ${\ensuremath{\mathscr{G}}}$ is contractible.

This is an immediate consequence of (\[L:contratil\]) and (\[L:retrato\]).

Let $B$ be a good band of width $R$. A [track]{} of $B$ is a curve on ${\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^2_\nu$ of length $R$ joining a point of ${\partial}B_+$ to a point of ${\partial}B_-$.

In other words, a track is a length-minimizing geodesic joining ${\partial}B_+$ to ${\partial}B_-$; in particular, it is a smooth curve. Also, if ${\ensuremath{\Gamma}}_1$, ${\ensuremath{\Gamma}}_2$ are tracks through $p\in {\partial}B_+$ and $q\in {\partial}B_-$ then ${\ensuremath{\Gamma}}_1={\ensuremath{\Gamma}}_2$, since two geodesics on ${\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^2$ intersect at a pair of antipodal points, and $p$ and $q$ do not map to the same point nor to a pair of antipodal points on ${\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^2$ under the coveringis constant, equal to $r$, and ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_r$ is a closed curve. Moreover, since ${\mathbf{t}}$ and ${\mathbf{n}}$ satisfy a Lipschitz condition when restricted to the image of ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_r$, we see that the entries of $\Phi_{{\ensuremath{\gamma}}_r}$ are absolutely continuous with bounded derivative. In particular, these derivatives belong to $L^2$. We conclude that ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_r$ is admissible.

For $r-R<\theta<r$, the curve ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_{r-\theta}$ is the translation of ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_r$ by $\theta$ (as defined on p. , eq. ) by construction. Since ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_{r-\theta}$ is also regular, we deduce from in (\[L:band\]) that the radius of curvature $\rho$ of ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_r$ satisfies $$        0<\rho(t)-\theta<\pi$$ for all $t$ at which $\rho$ is defined and all $\theta$ in $(r-R,r)$. Therefore, $r\leq \rho\leq \pi-R+r$ a.e..

\[C:central\] Let $B$ be a good band of width $R$ and let


of the last three conditions tells us that $h$ and $\hat{h}$ have exactly $2\nu({\ensuremath{\gamma}})$ critical points, for each of $B_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}^{-1}(b)$ and $B_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}^{-1}(-b)$ has cardinality $\nu({\ensuremath{\gamma}})$, by definition (\[D:rotationnumber\]). Suppose that $\tau$ is a critical point of $h$ and $\hat{h}$. Because $b\in {\ensuremath{\Gamma}}_\tau{\smallsetminus}(C\cup D)$, we can write $$\label{E:thetae}
    b=\cos \theta\, {\ensuremath{\gamma}}(\tau)+\sin \theta\, {\mathbf{n}}(\tau)\text{, for some $\theta\in (\rho_0-\pi,0)\cup (\rho_0,\pi)$}.$$ A straightforward calculation shows that: $$h''(\tau)={\left\langle{\ensuremath{\gamma}}''(\tau),b\right\rangle}=\frac{{\left\vert{\ensuremath{\gamma}}'(\tau)\right\vert}^2}{\sin\rho(\tau)}\sin(\theta-\rho(\tau)).$$ Using and $0<\rho(\tau)<\rho_0$ we obtain that either $$    -\pi<\theta-\rho(\tau)<0\text{\ \ or\ \ }0<\theta-\rho(\tau)<\pi.$$ In any case, we deduce that $h''(\tau)\neq 0$. The proof that $\tau$ is a nondegenerate critical point of $\hat{h}$ is analogous: one obtains by another calculation that $$    \hat h''(\tau)=\frac{{\left\vert{\ensuremath{\gamma}}'(\tau)\right\vert}^2}{\sin^2(\rho(\tau))}\sin(\rho_0-\rho(\tau)){\ensuremath{\mspace{2mu}}}\sin(\theta-\rho(\tau)),$$ and it follows from the above inequalities that $\hat{h}''(\tau)\neq 0$. In particular, two[equatorial]{} if the image $C$ of its caustic band is contained in a closed hemisphere, but not in any open hemisphere. Let $$H_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}={\big\{p\in {\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^2 \ \text{\large $:$}\ {\left\langlep,h_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}\right\rangle}\geq 0 \big\}}$$ be a closed hemisphere containing ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}$, and let $$E_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}={\big\{p\in {\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^2 \ \text{\large $:$}\ {\left\langlep,h_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}\right\rangle}=0 \big\}}$$ denote the corresponding [equator]{}. Also, let ${\check}{\ensuremath{\gamma}}\colon [0,1]\to {\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^2$ be the curve given by $$    {\check}{\ensuremath{\gamma}}(t)=C_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}(t,\rho_0).$$

\[L:cega\] Let ${\ensuremath{\kappa}}_0\geq 0$, let ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}\in {\ensuremath{\mathscr{L}}}_{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}_0}^{+\infty}$ be an equatorial curve of class $C^2$. Then:

1.  The hemisphere $H_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ and the equator $E_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ defined above are uniquely determined by ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}$.

2.  The geodesic curvature ${\check}{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}}$ of ${\check}{{\ensuremath{\gamma}}}$ is given by: $$\label{E:cecurvature}
                    {\check}{\ensuremath{\kappa}}=\cot(\rho_0-\rho)>0.$$

Suppose that $C={\operatorname{Im}}(C_{\ensuremath{\gamma}})$ is contained


is orthogonal to $\frac{{\partial}B_{{\ensuremath{\gamma}}}}{{\partial}t}(t,\theta)$. Moreover, $$            \frac{{\partial}B_{{\ensuremath{\gamma}}}}{{\partial}t}(t,\theta)\times \frac{{\partial}B_{{\ensuremath{\gamma}}}}{{\partial}\theta}(t,\theta)={\ensuremath{\lambda}}{\ensuremath{\mspace{2mu}}}B_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}(t,\theta),\text{ with ${\ensuremath{\lambda}}>0$}.$$

3.  If $B_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ is quasi-simple, then the restriction of $B_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ to $(\rho_1-\pi,\rho_2)$ is a covering map onto its image.

The proofs of (a) and (b) are practically identical to those of the corresponding items in (\[L:band\]), so they will be ommitted. For part (c), consider the unique map $\bar{B}_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}\colon {\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^1\times (\rho_1-\pi,\rho_2)\to {\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^2$ making the following diagram commute: $$\label{E:Bbar}

}$$ where $\operatorname{pr}(t)=\exp(2\pi it)$. Since $\bar{B}_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ is a diffeomorphism and $\operatorname{pr}\times \operatorname{id}$ is a covering map, $B_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ is also a covering map (onto its image).

\[L:separates\][\tau_1,\tau_2]\to {\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^2$.

Let $\theta_i=\theta(\tau_i)$, $i=1,2$. We claim first that $\theta_1,\theta_2\in {\left\{\pm \frac{\pi}{6}\right\}}$. Otherwise, $B_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}(\tau_i\times [-\frac{\pi}{6},\frac{\pi}{6}])$ would contain points on both sides of $C$. Further, we claim that $\theta_2=-\theta_1$. Otherwise, say, $\theta_1=\theta_2=-\frac{\pi}{6}$. If $\theta(t)\neq \frac{\pi}{6}$ for all $t\in [\tau_1,\tau_2]$, then the curve $t\mapsto B_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}(t,\frac{\pi}{6})$ would not cross $C$ in $[\tau_1,\tau_2]$, a contradiction. Let $\bar\tau_2=\inf{\big\{t\in [\tau_1,\tau_2] \ \text{\large $:$}\ \theta(t)=\frac{\pi}{6} \big\}}$. Then $[\tau_1,\bar\tau_2]{\subset}[\tau_1,\tau_2]$ is a crossing interval, hence we must have $\bar\tau_2=\tau_2$ and $\theta_2=\frac{\pi}{6}$, again a contradiction. Therefore ${\ensuremath{\alpha}}\colon [\tau_1,\tau_2] \to {\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^2$ is a curve satisfying the hypotheses of (\[L:bandlength\]), so it has length $\geq \frac{\pi}{3}$, and so does $C\cap B_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}\big([\tau_1,\tau_2]\times [-\frac{\pi}{6},\frac{\pi}{6}])$. The remaining assertion follows from the case of equality in (\[L:bandlength\]).

\[L:keepitsimple\] Let ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_0,{\ensuremath{\gamma}}_1\in {\ensuremath{\mathscr{A}}}$ lie in the same connected component, and suppose that $B_{{\ensuremath{\gamma}}_0}$ is simple. Then $B_{{\ensuremath{\gamma}}_1}$ is


(z',\theta')$ then $\bar{B}_{s_0}$ would not be injective, and if $(z,\theta)=(z',\theta')$ then $f$ would not be an immersion. Thus, no such sequence $(s_k)$ can exist, and this proves our claim.

Now suppose for the sake of obtaining a contradiction that there exists $s\in [0,1]$ such that $B_s$ is not simple, and let $s_0$ be the infimum of all such $s$. From what we have just proved, we know that $s_0>0$ and $B_{s_0}$ is not simple. We claim that $B_{s_0}$ is quasi-simple. If not, then there exist $z_1,z_2\in {\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^1$ and $\theta_1,\theta_2\in (-\frac{\pi}{6},\frac{\pi}{6})$ such that $$    f(s_0,z_1,\theta_1)=f(s_0,z_2,\theta_2)\text{\quad and\quad}(z_1,\theta_1)\neq (z_2,\theta_2).$$ Choose ${\ensuremath{\varepsilon}}>0$, open sets $U_i\ni z_i$ in ${\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^1$ and disjoint neighborhoods $V_i\ni (s_0,z_i,\theta_i)$ of the form $$\qquad \quad    V_i=(s_0-{\ensuremath{\varepsilon}},s_0]\times U_i\times (\theta_i-{\ensuremath{\varepsilon}},\theta_i+{\ensuremath{\varepsilon}})\qquad (i=1,2)$$ restricted to which $f$ isfrom $D_1$ to $D_2$ at $t=\tau_3$. But the latter is incompatible with $\dot{{\ensuremath{\gamma}}}(\tau_3)=-\dot{{\ensuremath{\gamma}}}(\tau_1)$, which points towards $D_1$. We conclude that $B_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ has at least six crossing intervals. Since $C$ has total length $2\pi$ and $B_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ is quasi-simple, (\[L:crossing2\]) implies that there cannot be more than six crossing intervals, and that all six are degenerate.

Let us again rearrange the crossing intervals (or numbers) $\tau_j\in [0,2)$, $j=1,\dots,6$, so that $\tau_j<\tau_{j'}$ if $j<j'$, and hence $\tau_i\in [0,\frac{1}{2})$ and $\tau_{i+3}=\tau_i+\frac{1}{2}$ for $i=1,2,3$. The sets $C_j=B_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}({\left\{\tau_j\right\}}\times [-\frac{\pi}{6},\frac{\pi}{6}])$ fill out the circle $C$, hence $B_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ intersects itself in exactly 6 points. Suppose that $C_1$ and $C_2$ are disjoint. The image of $[\tau_1,\tau_2]$ by ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ separates the closed disk which contains it in two parts, and the image of $(\tau_2,\tau_1+1)$ by ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ contains points in


write $q_0$ as a convex combination of $m-1$ points in $X_0$, and $p$ as a convex combination of $m$ points in $X$. By the induction hypothesis, we conclude that $p$ lies in some $k$-dimensional simplex with vertices in $X$, $k\leq n$.

Let $Y{\subset}{\ensuremath{\mathbf{R}}}^{2}$ the graph of the function $f(t)=(1+t^2)^{-1}$, for $t\in {\ensuremath{\mathbf{R}}}$. Then any point on the $x$-axis belongs to the closure of ${\hat{Y}}$, but not to ${\hat{Y}}$. Thus, even though $Y$ is closed, ${\hat{Y}}$ is not. When $X$ is compact, however, the situation is different.

\[L:convexcompact\] If $X{\subset}{\ensuremath{\mathbf{R}}}^{n}$ is compact, then ${\hat{X}}$ is compact. In particular, if $X{\subset}{\ensuremath{\mathbf{S}}}^n$ is closed, then ${\hat{X}}$ is compact.

Let $$        {\ensuremath{\Delta}}^n={\big\{(s_1,\dots,s_{n+1})\in {\ensuremath{\mathbf{R}}}^{n+1} \ \text{\large $:$}\ s_1+s_2+\dots+s_{n+1}=1,\ {\ensuremath{\mspace{2mu}}}s_i\in [0,1]\text{ for all $i$} \big\}}$$ and define $f\colon {\ensuremath{\Delta}}^n\times X^{n+1}\tospaces $X$ and $Y$ is said to be a weak homotopy equivalence if $f_*\colon \pi_n(X,x_0)\to \pi_n(Y,f(x_0))$ is an isomorphism for any $n\geq 0$ and $x_0\in X$. The space $X$ is said to be weakly contractible if it is weakly homotopy equivalent to a point, that is, if all of its homotopy groups are trivial.

Around half of the overall €1 trillion is to come from the EU long-term budget, with national governments contributing €100 billion and €300 billion coming from the private sector.

Another €7.5 billion euros from the 2021-2027 EU budget is earmarked as seed funding within a broader mechanism expected to generate another €100 billion in investment.

The commission says the plan will also be supported by money from EU regional programmes, from the InvestEU program, which mobilises public and private investment using an EU budget guarantee, and the European Investment Bank.

What do environmentalists say?

There is concern the transition funding should include a phase-out date for fossils fuels.

“A climate-neutral Europe needs everyone to play their part," said Katie Treadwell, energy policy officer at WWF European Policy Office.

"The proposed just transition mechanismbosses. President Trump works for us and the Attorney General, he works for us too," Adams told viewers.

"He took it to the public," Adams said. "He just put it out there. He said here's how I feel, full disclosure. I'm paraphrasing, obviously. But do you think the president held anything back? Do you want some transparency, there's some transparency for you. There's more transparency than he wanted."

"He said here's my beef with the Attorney General. And the public is sort of sorting it out for him if you think about because Jeff Sessions now has tens of millions of more eyeballs on him looking at him through a different and critical filter than before," he said.

Transcript of Adam's commentary:

SCOTT ADAMS: I'm seeing a lot of criticism about President


John Elway (five times), the Buffalo Bills by Jim Kelly (four times), the Miami Dolphins by Dan Marino (once), or the New England Patriots by Tony Eason (once).

Of the six first round quarterbacks drafted, two did not sign with the teams that selected them for the 1983 season. First overall pick Elway, who had made his antipathy towards the Colts known long before the draft, was also a promising baseball player in the New York Yankees organization. With Yankees owner George Steinbrenner aggressively pursuing a commitment from Elway to play baseball full-time. The other was Jim Kelly, who was selected 14th overall by the Buffalo Bills but would turn them down to play with the Houston Gamblers in the USFL.

Super Bowl LI – NRG Stadium, Houston

Houston’s not bad. It’s warm year-round and those Texans seem to love drinking. I’m not sure if they’re drinking because they want to party or because they’re full of self-loathing, but either way, it works for me. Houston is a little hipster, which isn’t neccessarily a bad thing, but you’re not getting the classic Friday Night Lights Texas experience. The severity of which really depends on the vacationer.

Super Bowl LII – U.S. Bank Stadium, Minneapolis

Ok, Minneapolis. Going to be honest, never


as hell. Rumors have it that essentially, they’re going to gut the entire venue and revamp it entirely. So it’s essentially a new stadium. So hundo percent chance this trip will be worth everyone’s while.

Super Bowl LV – City of Champions Stadium, Los Angeles

This one’s a no-brainer. A brand new stadium in Los Angeles? Am I keen on the name of the stadium? No, and I can really see this one going either way in that the hippies in LA may build a stadium no one wants to go to. But the other side is, it’s probably going to be very nice, hippies or not. Plus, come on, California? How could you not find something awesome to do? That’d be like going into the library of Alexandria andParsing The Tipping Point (Humanoids) is a frustrating experience. The anthology, a collection of 13 short stories and an attempt to point out the diversity of cartooning in the United States and Oceania, Western Europe, and Japan, contains works by some of the most audacious authors in the medium’s history. Paul Pope delivers some of his most aesthetically compelling artwork, and it sits side by side with a superhero pastiche by Naoki Urasawa. Keiichi Koike, whose work here represents his first appearance in English, delivers a psychedelic, spiritual sci-fi vignette that gleefully blends Katsuhiro Otomo and Jim Woodring. Katsuya Terada’s silent fantasy story affirms his status as one of the finest draftsman in comics. There is, without a doubt, some gorgeous cartooning on display here, and what people


depth of Delgado’s panel composition has intensified as he finds dramatic new angles to depict the setting and the brutal dinosaur action, and the coloring by Ryan Hill accentuates the textures in Delgado’s linework while providing lush natural lighting that makes everything come alive.

Ancient Egyptians begins with four pages of widescreen panels that set a firm pace as the Spinosaurus enters the swamp; each panel is like another step, and he is focused on moving forward in these opening pages. Establishing that rhythm in the layout makes the environment more inviting, and when the Spinosaurus starts to get situated, the layout changes to heighten the atmosphere even more. After he submerges himself in the swamp, the horizontal rectangles are slashed diagonally to become triangles, changing the structure ofthe contract provided for termination by either party with or without cause on 30 days notice, Litton to have the option on termination of repurchasing Neptune's remaining inventory of Litton repair parts.
The agreement continued in effect until December 1981 when Litton, without any indication of reason, gave Neptune notice of termination pursuant to the terms of the contract. By that time, according to Neptune's certification, it was doing an annual gross sales volume with Litton of $70,000 and the Litton work accounted for 38% of its own gross income. Litton disputed these calculations, claiming that the actual gross sales as between it and Neptune for the twelve months preceding the termination was less than $35,000 and accounted for less than 20% of Neptune's over-all gross business receipts.[1] In

In neither of these cases was the plaintiff authorized to use defendant's trade name in the marketing of its own goods or services. In neither case did the plaintiff significantly contribute, by its own efforts, to the product or service distributed to the public under the defendant's name. Cf. Martin Investors, Inc. v. Vander Bie, 269 N.W.2d 868, 874 (Minn.Sup.Ct. 1978).
Thus, this case authority simply stands for the proposition that limited use by an independent contractor of another's trade name in that contractor's own business advertising does not ipso facto constitute a license to use a trademark within the intendment of franchise legislation.
