Diagnosis and Treatment of Typhoid Fever and Associated Prevailing Drug Resistance in Northern Ethiopia.
To determine diagnostic value of the Widal test, treatment pattern of febrile patients and antimicrobial drug susceptibility pattern of blood isolates. Using cross sectional methods, blood samples were collected for culture and Widal test from 502 febrile outpatients attending Mekelle hospital and Mekelle health center with similar symptoms to typhoid. Sensitivity, specificity for anti-TH and anti-TO titers using culture confirmed typhoid fever cases, and Kappa agreement between Titer and slide Widal tests were calculated. Treatment pattern of patients and antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of the blood isolates was assessed. From the 502 febrile patients, 8(1.6%) of them had culture-proven typhoid fever.

Correct way of saying "graphological" in stylistic analysi

Reading the wikipedia page for graphemics, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphemics I stumble across
"later some scholars suggested calling it graphology[1] to match phonology, but that name is traditionally used for a pseudo-science."
So currently, I am attempting "graphological" analysis of a poem, in a stylistic sense. However, I want to steer away from the pseudo-science term, and I am not sure how to convert 'graphemics' to a 'graphological' equivalent so that I can write
"The poem contains graphological deviation".
I hope I am clear, thank you.

A:

Graphology is the pseudo-science of deducing personality characteristics from handwriting.  This is the meaning I would assume and I would be puzzled by your intended phrase:  "Does he mean he wrote it with a back-slope?" I would recommend sticking with graphemics.

Democratic Senator and potential 2020 presidential candidate Kirsten Gillibrand has called for Immigration and Customs Enforcement to be abolished.

The far-left position has gained popularity on the fringes of the Democratic Party as the immigration debate heats up in the country. Gillibrand joins New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio who said Friday “ICE’s time has come and gone. We should abolish ICE. We should create something better, something different.”

However, when Gillibrand was just elected to a rather conservative House seat in Upstate New York, she was singing a different tune on illegal immigration. According to a report by the New York Times from 2009, Gillibrand was a hawk on immigration, advocating for strict enforcement of our immigration laws.

The article says:

OK, this is how I got it working. I stopped using the 'create runnable jar' option in eclipse and just used the 'create jar' option. I then referenced the other jars (JTwain etc), using the manifest (rather than having eclipse try to include them in my jar).
MANIFEST.MF
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Class-Path: JTwain.jar plugin.jar AspriseJavaPDF.jar

I added the other jars to my media folder and served them up using the jnpl -

Peace pact lasts

The truce many in El Salvador believed couldn't last has evolved into a more complex peace process, according to those who guided the pact.

The truce has served as an example of how all members of society can play a role in sustaining peace.

Take Josué Alvarado, the Salvadoran founder of Maryland-based Rio Grande Foods. In El Salvador, where the company employs more than 450 people, Mr. Alvarado started recruiting ex-members of the feared MS-13 and Barrio 18 street gangs into a “reinsertion” program that includes faith-based rehabilitation through local churches, psychological treatment by the state health authority, workshop space loaned by the municipality, and vocational trainingby state boundaries, but unfortunately the solutions are confined to each country,” he says. “It’s a balloon: You reduce violence in Guatemala and you’ll push the cartels to Honduras. They’ll go to the weakest link.”

The portion of the foregoing quoted claim which is underlined is that portion of the three claims of the patent in suit which was added to the original application by amendment, and which resulted in the approval of the application and the granting of the patent. Mesinger's application which did not contain the underlined words was denied because it read on prior art, particularly a German patent, No. 827,289, known as the Kruger patent, and a patent held by the defendant, Troxel Manufacturing Company, No. 2,011,842, known as the Brandt patent. That portion of each claim, which was added and whichwhich entirely eliminated stitching, gluing, and rivots, and increased the comfort and utility of the seat and extended its period of usefulness.

DEFENSES AND COUNTERCLAIM
Plaintiffs originally instituted this action against Western Auto Supply Co. and E. A. Carter d/b/a Carter's Western Auto Store in Delray Beach, Florida. Troxel Manufacturing Company intervened as defendant without objection. Troxel had manufactured and sold to the original defendants the seats which plaintiffs accused of infringement. Hence, Troxel is the real party in interest and has since its intervention defended against the complaint and asserted the counterclaim. Troxel categorically denied the allegations of the complaint charging infringement and attacks the validity of the patent on a variety of grounds, principally asserting File Wrapper Estoppel.
In those cases involving both a charge of infringement and invalidity,


demonstrated that the patented device was obvious, by even a preponderance of the evidence. No satisfactory argument can be made that the patented device was not new and useful. For these reasons, and without further detail, this Court finds and rules that the patent in suit is a valid and enforceable patent.
In arriving at this decision, the Court has not ignored the defendants' assertion of File Wrapper Estoppel. It is true that in the course of the prosecution of the patent in suit, the patent examiner disallowed applicant's earlier claims as reading on prior art. However, the applicant continued to press his application by amending and changing the same, with the result that the Patent Office finally approved and granted the applicant's voluntary modification.

title: Conditional Linear Regression
---

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

Linear regression is the task of modeling the relationship between a result variable and some explanatory variables by a linear rule. Linear regression is a standard tool of statistical analysis, with widespread applications spanning essentially all of the sciences. While the standard linear regression task seeks to model the majority of the data, we consider problems where a regression fit could exist for some subset or portion of the data, that does not necessarily model the majority of the data. We will consider cases in whichthey should be fit by a common linear rule. We will need that this quantity is sufficiently small relative to the degree of (strong) convexity of the loss. More specifically, recall:

A function $f:{\mathcal{H}}\to{\mathbb{R}}$ for ${\mathcal{H}}\subseteq {\mathbb{R}}^d$ is $\kappa-$strongly convex if $\forall \vec{w},\vec{w}' \in {\mathcal{H}}$, $$f(\vec{w}') \geq \langle \vec{w}'-\vec{w}, \nabla f(\vec{w}) \rangle + \frac{\kappa}{2}\|\vec{w}'-\vec{w}\|_2^2.$$

Generally, for the squared error loss on a bounded space, the convexity coefficient can be viewed as a constant, when the bound $\|y\|_2 \leq B$ is fixed. Note that we will be able to enforce that our loss function is at least $\kappa$-strongly convex by adding a regularization term, $\frac{\kappa}{2}\|\vec{w}\|_2^2$, at the potential cost of reducing the quality of the solution. Our main theorem is of the form:

\[2.2\] Suppose $D$ is a joint distribution over $x


arbitrary bad data. Our algorithm is going to suggest a list of candidate parameters $\hat{\vec{w}}$, with one of them approximating $\vec{w}^*$.

Soft Regression and Outlier Removal
===================================

Our algorithm works primarily on terms: we consider the terms to be atomic sets of data, whose weights are the number of points (probability mass) satisfying the terms. The main idea of our algorithm is to compute regression parameters $\vec{w}_j$ for each term $t_j$, and cluster the [*terms*]{} by the distance of their [*parameters*]{}, similar to @lud. Towards realizing this strategy, we need to compute approximations to the regression parameters that are not too impacted by the presence of bad data (“outliers”).

Preprocessing
-------------

In this section, we show how to convert the data into a suitable form: later, we will assume the terms are disjoint and$\|\vec{w}-\vec{w}^*\|$ is bounded by $2r$, where $r:= \max \|\vec{w}\|_2$. We will need to bound the gradient as well.

To bound the loss functions, we use the spectral norm of gradients: $$S := \max_{\vec{w}\in{\mathcal{H}}} \frac{1}{\sqrt{{t }}}
\| \big[\nabla f_j(\vec{w}) - \nabla \bar{f}(\vec{w}) \big]_{j\in {I_{good}}} \|_{op}$$ where $\| \cdot \|_{op}$ is the spectral norm (operator 2-norm) of the matrix whose rows are gradients of loss functions in ${I_{good}}$: $(\nabla f_i(\vec{w}) - \nabla \bar{f}(\vec{w}))_{i\in {I_{good}}}$. $S$ measures the difference between the gradient of loss functions of terms in ${I_{good}}$: $\nabla f_i(\vec{w})$ and gradient of average loss on ${I_{good}}$: $\nabla \bar{f}(\vec{w})$. At a high level, this bound tells us how bad these loss functions could be. We note that since the gradient is a linear operator, this quantity is invariant to regularization of the


\bar{f}(\vec{w}^*) $ by controlling the optimization error $|f_i(\hat{\vec{w}}_i) - f_i(\vec{w}^*) |$ and the statistical error $|\bar{f}({\hat{\vec{w}}_{avg}}) -f_i(\hat{\vec{w}})|$. Then we prove Algorithm \[UpdateWeights\] will not decrease the weight of the good terms too much.

Theorem \[4.1\] says that Algorithm \[algo1\] can find a small ellipse $\mathcal{E}_Y$ bounding its output, and the expected loss over ${\hat{\vec{w}}_{avg}}$ is close to the expected loss of $\vec{w}^*$.

\[4.1\] Let $\hat{\vec{w}}_{1:m}, \hat{Y}$ be the output of Algorithm 1. Then, $\bar{f}(\hat{\vec{w}}_{avg}) - \bar{f}(\vec{w}^*) \leq 18 \frac{{t }{S}r }{\sqrt{\mu}}$. Furthermore, $\hat{\vec{w}}_{avg} \in \mathcal{E}_{\hat{Y}}$ and ${\mathrm{tr}}(\hat{Y}) \leq \frac{6r^2}{\mu}$.

Lemma \[4.6\] is a basic inequality used multiple times in the analysis. It bounds the loss via $S$. Since the algorithm is using terms instead of points, we are suffering an additional factor-${t }$ blow-up of the error compared to the originalassumption we have ${\mathrm{tr}}(\hat{Y}) \leq \frac{6r^2}{\mu}$. Plugging in $\lambda  = \frac{\sqrt{8\mu} N{t }S}{r}$, we get $$\begin{aligned}
     \sum_{i \in I_{good}} c_i |t_i| (\bar{f}( \hat{\vec{w}}_{avg} ) - \bar{f}(\vec{w}^*) )
     & \leq \lambda r^2 + 3\mu N {t }S r+ \sqrt{6\mu } N {t }S r \\
     &  = 3\mu N {t }S r + ( \sqrt{6} + \sqrt{8} ) \sqrt{\mu }N {t }S r\\
     & \leq 9 \sqrt{\mu} N {t }S r\end{aligned}$$ Since $ \sum_{i \in I_{good}} c_i |t_i|  \geq \frac{\mu N}{2}$, dividing through by $\sum_{i \in I_{good}} c_i |t_i|$ yields $\bar{f}(\hat{\vec{w}}_{avg}) - \bar{f}(\vec{w}^*) \leq 18\frac{{t }Sr}{\sqrt{\mu}}$.

List-regression Algorithm
=========================

We finally introduce the main algorithm to cluster the terms. Again following @lud, we


generate multiple padded decompositions in each iteration, to ensure that with high probability most of the padded decompositions preserve all of ${I_{good}}$ in a single cluster. At the end of each iteration, we will update each term’s choice of regression parameters, $   \hat{\vec{w}}_i $ by aggregating the padded decompositions.

Given a target radius $r_{final}$, we will check if the current radius $r < r_{final}$. If so, the algorithm will greedily find a list of candidate parameters $\vec{u}_1,...,\vec{u}_s$, where the length of the list $s$ is at most $\frac{2}{\mu}$. We can show that one of $\vec{u}_1,...,\vec{u}_s$ must be close to $\vec{w}^*$. Finally, we will use a greedy covering algorithm following @juba18 to find conditions on which the linear rules $\vec{u}_1,...,\vec{u}_s$ have low loss, and return the pair $(\hat{\vec{w}},\hat{\vec{c}})$$\hat{\vec{w}}_i^{(\ell+1)}:= \bar{\vec{w}}_i(h_0)$ is within $\frac{1}{2}{r^{(\ell)}}$ of $\vec{w}^*$.

[Theorem \[llr\]]{} Lemma \[6.5\] shows that on the $\ell$th iteration, $\vec{w}^*$ lies in a ball of radius ${r^{(\ell)}}$ around each $\hat{\vec{w}}_i^{(\ell)}$ for $i\in{I_{good}}$, where ${r^{(\ell)}}$ decreases by half on each iteration. In the final iteration, when ${r^{(\ell)}}$ reaches the target accuracy radius $r_{final}$, the algorithm greedily finds disjoint balls $B(\vec{u}_{j};2r_{\text{final}})$ on the parameter space $\mathcal{W}$, such that the corresponding terms for the covered parameters contain at least $(1 - \varepsilon)\mu N$ points, i.e for each ball $B$, $$\sum_{\hat{\vec{w}}_i\in B } |t_i| \leq (1 - \varepsilon)\mu N$$ Since for all $i \in I_{good}$, $\|{\hat{\vec{w}}}- {\vec{w}^*}\| < r_{final}$, we now argue that all of the terms in ${I_{good}}$ will lie in one ball. Indeed, if no term of ${I_{good}}$ is contained in any ball,


large.

One difficulty with the use of our algorithm is that we need to specify the setting of several parameters. One has to guess an estimate of $\mu$ and $S_0$ to run the algorithm, so in practice one may need to try a sequence of candidate settings for these parameters. The smaller $S$ and $r_{final}$ are set, the more accurate an estimate the algorithm can provide, at the cost of more computation time. In practice, we cannot set $r_{final}$ to be too small, as otherwise the algorithm tends to think there does not exist a candidate with size $\mu$. We anticipate that this may be a consequence of noise in the data.

Directions for future work
==========================

Our work has introduced the first algorithm for conditional linear regression that simultaneously obtains conditionsof near-optimal probability, obtains an ${\mathcal{O}}({t }\log \mu N)$-approximation to the optimal loss, and does not feature a running time that depends exponentially on the number of factors used in the linear predictor. Theoretically, the one “additional cost” imposed by our approach was a requirement that ${{S_{\varepsilon}}}_0$, the spectral difference between the covariances of the individual terms and the overall desired subset of the data we are interested in, is sufficiently small compared to the convexity of our loss functions. Although we noted that we can always impose sufficient convexity by adding a regularization term, in some cases this may yield insufficiently accurate estimates of the regression parameters. Thus, the main theoretical question raised here is whether or not this requirement can be relaxed or removed entirely. We


Q:

How do I make an enemy follow the player in Pygame?

So, I'm a beginner to Python and Pygame and would like some help. I'm trying to make a game similar to Asteroids and I've made most of this program by looking around at other examples on the internet. However, I'm stuck on this problem: how do I get an enemy sprite to follow the player sprite? I've googled how to do so and tried implementing the same thing on my code but the sprite just stays in one place and doesn't follow the player. I've used the vector stuff to create the player sprite and I still barely understand how that works. I'm sort of on a tight schedule so I don't have time to thoroughly understand thisQ:

How can you visually distinguish between a parabola and hyperbola?

I am fully aware of the mathematical definition of either and how they relate to conic sections.
Still, I wonder whether there is an easy way to see that these are fundamentally different curves. By "easy way" I mean just by looking at it or by an easy "experiment" or something (no calculation).
Note that I'd be satisfied with any difference. I don't need a proof that they are actually a hyperbola/parabola.
Concretely I have a light shining on a wall (a light cone intersecting with a wall) and would like to interest a 4th grader to the different conic sections that you can see there.

The transiting planet HD189733b is one of the very hot Jupiters with shortest periods and, thus, smallest orbits, which makes them ideal candidates for polarimetric detections. We obtained polarimetric measurements of HD189733 in the $B$ band well distributed over the orbital period and detected two polarization maxima near planetary elongations with a peak amplitude of $\sim$2$\cdot$10$^{-4}$. Assuming Rayleigh scattering, we estimated the effective size of the scattering atmosphere (Lambert sphere) to be 1.5$\pm$0.2$R_{\rm J}$, which is 30% larger than the radius of the opaque body previously inferred from transits.

vary from one pixel to a few pixels in the field of view. In this size, shape, color and texture information cannot be used for target detection. Second, small targets are often buried in cluttered backgrounds and difficult to separate from noise. In addition, ego-motion may bring in further difficulties to small target motion detection.

Nature has provided a rich source of inspiration for small target motion detection. Detecting small targets in naturally cluttered backgrounds is critical for many insect species to search for mates or track prey. As the result of millions of years of evolution, the small target motion detection visual systems in insects are both efficient and reliable [@yue2006collision; @nordstrom2006insect]. For example, dragonflies can pursue small flying insects with successful capture rates as high as $97\%$


the excitatory region, it will receive strong inhibition. When the target is smaller than the excitatory region, the amount of excitation will increase as the rise of target size. That is, the DSTMD prefers the target whose size is equal to the excitatory region and exhibits size selectivity.

Following the second-order lateral inhibition mechanism, the DSTMD inhibits model output $D_{_I}(x,y,t;\theta)$ at directions more than $45^{\circ}$ apart by convolving $D_{_I}(x,y,t;\theta)$ with an inhibition kernel $W_3(\theta)$. That is, $$E(x,y,t;\theta) = \Big{[}\int D_{_I}(x,y,t;\varphi)W_3(\theta - \varphi) d\varphi \Big{]}^{+}
\label{DS-STMD-Lateral-Inhibition-Direction-W3}$$ where $[x]^+$ denotes $\max (x,0)$ and $W_3(\theta)$ is defined as $$W_3(\theta) =  G_{\sigma_6}(\theta) - G_{\sigma_7}(\theta).
\label{DS-STMD-Lateral-Inhibition-Direction-W3-2}$$ where $G_{\sigma}(x,y)$ is a Gaussian function.

In the DSTMD, $E(x,y,t;\theta)$ is regarded as the output of the STMD neurons.

Motion Direction Estimation
---------------------------

In the insect’s visual system, the STMD neurons are believedproperties, i.e., Weber Contrast sensitivity, velocity selectivity, width selectivity and height selectivity. In this section, we further evaluate the impacts of three sets of parameters, including $(n_4, \tau_4)$, $(n_5, \tau_5)$ and $(\sigma_4, \sigma_5)$, on the four basic properties. These three sets of parameters are defined in (\[ESTMD-Mdeulla-Lateral-Inhibition-Kernel-W2-2\]) and (\[DS-STMD-Signal-Correlation\]).

We conduct three experiments to assess the effects of these three sets of parameters, respectively. In each experiment, we change one set of parameters while keep other two sets of parameters at their initially assigned value \[see Table \[Table-Parameter-STMD\]\], then record corresponding model outputs. In the first experiment, $(n_4, \tau_4)$ is set as $(1,5)$, $(2,10)$, $(3,15)$, $(4,20)$, $(5,25)$, $(6,30)$. In the second experiment, $(n_5, \tau_5)$ is set as $(3,15)$, $(4,20)$, $(5,25)$, $(6,30)$, $(7,35)$, $(8,40)$. In the third experiment, $(\sigma_4, \sigma_5)$


if there is a position $(x_0,y_0)$, time $t_0$ and direction $\theta_0$ which satisfy the DSTMD output $E(x_0,y_0,t_0;\theta_0)>\gamma$, then we believe that a small target is detected at position $(x_0,y_0)$ and time $t_0$. Two metrics are defined to evaluate the detection performance. That is, $$\begin{aligned}
D_R & = \frac{\text{number of true detections}}{\text{number of actual targets}} \\
F_A & = \frac{\text{number of false detections}}{\text{number of images}}\end{aligned}$$ where $D_R$ and $F_A$ denote the detection rate and false alarm rate, respectively. The detected result is considered correct if the pixel distance between the ground truth and the result is within a threshold ($5$ pixels).

In the first three experiments, we investigate the influences of three target parameters (size, luminance and velocity) on the detection performance. In each experiment, we change one of the target parameterswhile fix the other two parameters, then record the detection performance of the models under this parameter setting. The parameter settings of the first three experiments are shown in Table \[Parameter-Selection-For-Target-CB-1\]. All input image sequences are produced using the same background image where a representative frame is given in Fig. \[Curvilinear-Motion-Original-Image\]. In all input image sequences, the background is moving from left to right and its velocity is set as $250$ pixel/s. A small target is moving against the cluttered background, and its coordinate at time $t$ is $(500 - V_{_T}^x \cdot \frac{t+300}{1000}, 125+15 \cdot \sin(4\pi \frac{t+300}{1000})), t \in [0, 1000]$ ms where $V_{_T}^x$ denotes the horizontal velocity. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of the three experiments with respect to target luminance, size and horizontal velocity $V_{_T}^x$,


powerful. These make it possible for mobile robots, such as unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), equipped with the presented neural network to detect small moving targets in the distance in the real world.

In the insects’ visual system, numerous neurons work together to extract different cues from the real world. For example, the LMCs extract motion information while the amacrine cells capture contrast information from input visual signals [@vogt2007first; @zheng2006feedback]. Integrating these two types of information may contribute to the improvement of detection performance of the STMD neurons in cluttered backgrounds. In the future, the cooperation of these specialized neurons needs to be taken into consideration.

A number of bio-inspired neural networks based on firing-rate methods, spiking neural networks or convolutional neural networks [@hwu2017self; @beyeler2015gpu; @browning2009cortical], have been used for targetbe the indisputable birthplace of the department store, the city has a real affinity with these spaces, and is home to some of the most famous in the world. Fenwick is not even the oldest among them. Harrods, Liberty and Fortnum & Mason all pre-date it, the latter having first opened as early as 1707. Selfridges, though younger that the others, has nonetheless been delighting customers since 1909. So what makes London’s leading department stores so enduring?

Taste of historyTheir very longevity is an alluring factor. From Liberty’s Tudor-revival façade to the Beaux-Arts architecture of Selfridges, the structures that house these stores act as advertisements for their heritage. Maintaining and even expanding on such standout design – see, for example, the Egyptian-themed escalator at Harrods – reinforces the power

After the benefit had ended, Squeaky hosted an “After Party” to thank everyone who participated. The group chatted, played a couple games, and even sang a bit. But for those looking to hear more about her condition, she has previously created an informational video about Lyme as well, which can be viewed in full below:

bias to dating.

Arriaga says that these forms of aggression, such as put downs, negative criticism and possessiveness, are common with young couples who are dating, and many young people may not realize the behavior is a problem.

"But it will be a long-term problem for some people, and especially so if these problems are carried into a marriage," Arriaga says. "The take-home message is that if you have any sense the relationship is not going well, attend to those feelings, especially before marrying when things get very complicated. When there is a lot of aggression, especially controlling behavior, the problem often gets worse. Moreover, aggression can be damaging even when it's not that physical; many people don't believe that."

Arriaga also is looking at what psychological mechanisms cause a person644, 649 (7th Cir.2010). We may grant relief to Winston "only if the state court's decision was contrary to or an unreasonable application of clearly established Supreme Court precedent." Kerr v. Thurmer, 639 F.3d 315, 318 (7th Cir.2011); see 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d)(1). Winston focuses on the unreasonable application provision, which demands more than "just" an incorrect application of federal law. See Harrington v. Richter, ___ U.S. ___, 131 S.Ct. 770, 785-86, 178 L.Ed.2d 624 (2011). A state court unreasonably applies controlling Supreme Court precedent when it "identifies the correct governing legal rule" from the Court's cases, "but unreasonably applies it to the facts of the particular state prisoner's case."

conviction cannot stand." Smith, 311 U.S. at 132, 61 S.Ct. 164.
Batson relied on three cases that employed this remedial approach. 476 U.S. at 100, 106 S.Ct. 1712. First, Whitus v. Georgia held that "a conviction cannot stand if it is based on an indictment of a grand jury or the verdict of a petit jury from which Negroes were excluded by reason of their race." 385 U.S. 545, 549-50, 87 S.Ct. 643, 17 L.Ed.2d 599 (1967). Likewise, Hernandez v. Texas held that where "[t]he result bespeaks discrimination, whether or not it was a conscious decision on the part of any individual jury commissioner," the "judgment of conviction must be reversed." 347 U.S. 475, 482, 74 S.Ct. 667, 98 L.Ed. 866 (1954). Finally, Patton v. Mississippi held that "[w]hencalled in question, and the irregularity may pervade all the proceedings that follow." Powers, 499 U.S. at 412-13, 111 S.Ct. 1364. It is therefore not surprising that in a case decided several years after Winston's state-court proceedings, the Supreme Court unanimously affirmed that Batson is an "automatic reversal precedent[]." Rivera v. Illinois, 556 U.S. 148, 129 S.Ct. 1446, 1455, 173 L.Ed.2d *629 320 (2009). Rivera distinguishes between the remedy required for an ordinary error in the denial of a peremptory challenge and the kind of constitutional error that occurs when a juror is excluded on racial grounds. In the former case, harmless error analysis is proper, and the court must decide whether the jurors who actually sat were qualified and unbiased. If they were, then the erroneous use

known as a character named Quake from the comics. It was also revealed that her father (Kyle MacLachlan) is really Calvin Zabo, who you might know as Mister Hyde.

Now on to what Whedon and Tancharoen had to say. Here’s an excerpt from the interview:

Jed Whedon: There are parts of [The Origin of Quake and Hyde] that move away from the story in the comics, but partially that’s because we’d invented our own way [of getting there]. We also wanted it to be a surprise to the people who are familiar with the comics, but [it’s] also because we’re tying it to a larger world. [It’s] not just her origin story, it’s the origin story of a bigger, other world.

Marvel.com: When did you hit upon the idea of introducingnumber. Importantly, however, neutrons are differentially sensitive to an element and its isotope(s). For example, hydrogen, which is ubiquitous in biological samples, has a coherent neutron scattering length *b*cohH = --3.7423 fm, while its stable isotope, deuterium, has *b*cohD = 6.674 fm. This difference between the two nuclei forms the basis of neutron contrast variation studies of biological materials. Therefore, by changing either the external contrast (by varying the H~2~O/D~2~O composition of the aqueous buffer), or by selectively deuterating specific parts of the biomolecule of interest,^[@cit24]^ one can highlight or suppress static and dynamic structural features.

Another important difference between X-ray and neutron scattering relates to instrumental resolution. The wavelength spread Δ*λ*/*λ* at third generation synchrotron small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) beamlines is of the order of 0.01%, approximately 2


excitation can be exploited.

The goal of inelastic scattering experiments is to measure two quantities, namely the momentum transfer, **q** = **k** ~f~ -- **k** ~*i*~, and the energy transfer, ℏ*ω* = *E* ~f~ -- *E* ~*i*~. Here, **k** ~*i*~ and **k** ~f~ are the incident and scattered wave vectors, respectively, and *E* ~*i*~ and *E* ~f~ are the incident and scattered neutron energies, respectively. Through these two quantities, one can extract detailed information with respect to the frequency and geometry of atomic motions within a lipid bilayer.

The earliest inelastic scattering experiments were performed in the 1950s by Bertram Brockhouse^[@cit37]^ at the then Chalk River Nuclear Laboratories using his newly developed triple-axis spectrometer. This novel way of measuring inelastic scattering enabled the measurement of scattered intensity at specific pointscellular membrane. Diffuse scattering from a dilute ULV suspension affords the possibility to extract the bilayer\'s continuous *F*(**q**) (eqn (4)), and often offers extended ranges for the scattering vector\'s transverse component (**q** ~*z*~).

Arguably the easiest method of sample preparation is that of MLVs, whereby a dry lipid mixture film is hydrated with water. Measurement of MLVs results in the presence of a *F*(**q**) and a *S* ~*i*~(**q**) as a convolution of both the radial and in-plane heterogeneities of the bilayer structure. A great deal of information can be extracted from MLV samples, including (but not limited to) the bilayer\'s stiffness, and the presence of domains (Section 6).

Supported samples can be prepared as a single bilayer (typically examined with reflectometry) or as multilamellar stacks for interrogation by diffraction techniques.

6. Phase separated bilayers
===========================

The importance of coherence volume *V* ~coh~ was mentioned in Section 3. For phase separated systems in particular, the domain size---or more precisely, the domain volume *V* ~D~---with respect to *V* ~coh~ must be considered. If V~coh~ ≥ *V* ~D~, domain scattering contributions add coherently ([Fig. 6](#fig6){ref-type="fig"} top). For ULVs exhibiting two-phase coexistence, the observed scattering intensity is thus given by:where *φ* ~A~ is the fraction of phase A, and *F* ~A~ and *F*multibilayers, and by selectively detuning the pyrolytic graphite monochromator, the authors were able to decrease *L* ~coh~ from 242 Å to 30 Å. Only for *L* ~coh~ \< 103 Å was phase coexistence observed.

With regard to domain size, another factor to consider is the overall ULV size. For 50--100 nm diameter ULVs, as studied by SANS (see Section 6.1), *V* ~coh~ \> *V* ~D~ for L~o~/L~d~ phase coexistence, allowing for in-plane structure (*e.g.*, domain size and configuration) to be detected. In multibilayers, domains may grow to several microns. In such cases, *V* ~coh~ \< *V* ~D~. This gives rise to two lamellar lattices from which one can measure each domain\'s transverse structure (see Section 6.3). However, things may differ for lipid mixtures exhibiting nanoscopic domains,^[@cit102]^ where domain size


and data from [Table 1](#tab1){ref-type="table"}. A sharp minimum in *Q* ~hom~ is observed at 34.6% D~2~O and 65.9% DSPC-d70, precisely the point where the solvent and average bilayer NSLDs are matched to the PC headgroup. Using these experimental conditions, *ρ* ~m~ ≅ *ρ̄* ≅ *ρ* ~h~ ≅ *ρ* ~ac~ ≅ 0.181 fm Å^--3^: consequently, if the lipids are randomly mixed within the bilayer plane (*e.g.*, at high temperature), a null scattering condition exists ([Fig. 7](#fig7){ref-type="fig"}, lower left). However, demixing of saturated and unsaturated lipids (*i.e.*, DSPC and DOPC) causes lateral NSLD fluctuations that generate in-plane contrast ([Fig. 7](#fig7){ref-type="fig"}, lower right), resulting in increased scattering according to eqn (29).

![Optimizing experimental conditions for detecting domains in DSPC/DOPC/Chol. The relative homogeneous background scattering *Q* ~hom~ = *Q* ~0~ + *Q* ~r~,study of such systems, the analytical form factor was recently generalized to static configurations of multiple, arbitrarily sized domains, with the ability to accommodate distributions of domain sizes or configurations through appropriate averaging.^[@cit112]^ To illustrate the model, we now consider the analytical solution for uniformly sized round domains.

point extraction from an image consists of two steps. The first step is to determine positions in the image that are stable (i.e., that do not move) over small and moderate amounts of image transformation such as scale and rotation. These locations define so-called keypoints in the image. A keypoint describes a two-dimensional (2D) location (e.g., (x, y) coordinates) and the angle (or orientation) of the feature (SIFT keypoints specify a 2D location, scale, and orientation).
The second step of feature point extraction is to extract a so-called descriptor (e.g., a numeric signature) from each feature point. For example, an implementation of the SIFT descriptor has 128 values that encapsulate the orientations in a region that surrounds the keypoint. Numeric descriptor values are often normalized such that the descriptormeasure the classifier on an independent set of data. In a present implementation 70% of the ground truth is allocated to the training set and 30% is allocated to the testing set, although other proportions could be used.
Those of ordinary skill in the art will realize and appreciate, upon reading this description, that training takes computation resources and the amount of required resources grows rapidly with the size of the training set. In cases where there is too much ground truth data, a portion of the ground truth data would be sufficient for creating a classifier and the rest can be ignored.
When the ground truth is divided into the two sets, attention should be paid to the distribution of the two classes, the true positives and the false

INTRODUCTION
Carmine Scotch sued his former employer, The Art Institute of California-Orange County, Inc. (AIC), under the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, Government Code section 12900 et seq. (FEHA),[1] alleging discrimination based on disability. Scotch alleged AIC violated the FEHA by reducing his employment status to part time because he was HIV positive, failing to make a reasonable accommodation, failing to engage in the required interactive


the interactive process. Other than his proposed accommodation, which we conclude was not reasonable, Scotch did not identify such an accommodation and therefore cannot recover under section 12940, subdivision (n).
Finally, summary judgment was properly granted on Scotch's claims for retaliation, failing to maintain an environment free from discrimination, and termination of employment in violation of public policy.

FACTS

I.

Background
AIC is a design, media arts, and culinary arts school offering bachelor's and associate's degrees in, among other things, media arts and animation, game arts and design, and interior design. AIC is accredited by the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS) and is subject to its accreditation standards.
Full-time faculty at AIC teach at least five course sections or the equivalent per term, and part-time faculty teach four course sections or"backlash." According to Lester, "Scotch mentioned his `long-term illness' and [PPAR] score and told me he did not have time to fulfill his job duties and get a master's degree. Scotch said something to me to the effect that he could not be stressed out and had to have enough time to do his outside freelance work. My impression from the meeting was that Scotch was afraid that working on a master's degree would take away from his own freelance work." She did not interpret Scotch's comments about the PPAR score as a complaint of disability discrimination by Richman, but rather as being directed toward resolving concerns that study in a master's degree program would be time consuming.
Lester told Scotch the time spent working toward his master's degree


would take the place of his professional development requirement and therefore would not increase his workload. She understood that Scotch had "health issues," suggested he enroll in a three-year rather than a two-year *999 master's degree program, and told him, "we would talk more again." At the time, Scotch was satisfied with Lester's response and thanked her. Although Scotch decided to reduce the amount of his freelance work to free up time to pursue a master's degree, he did not move beyond "evaluation" of his options.

V.

Scheduling for Summer 2006 Term and Reduction in Scotch's Course Assignments
In early 2006, AIC experienced a decline in enrollment. Education Management's vice-president of academic affairs conducted a site visit of AIC in spring 2006. After the visit, AIC cancelled many course sections forwith a master's degree qualified to teach the particular subject matter, to faculty members with experiential knowledge in the subject matter and who had enrolled in master's degree programs. Of the remaining faculty members (those without master's degrees and who were not currently enrolled in a program), the Academic Directors were instructed to assign courses to those who had been full-time before assigning courses to those who had been part-time." Between the spring and summer terms of 2006, AIC changed 10 faculty members from full-time to part-time status and asked seven faculty members to leave based on their failure to enroll in a master's degree program.
In the spring 2006 term, Scotch taught four lower division course sections in the media arts and animation department and one upper division


course load was based on his performance review. She told him that, because he received a low PPAR score, he "should have seen this coming" and added, "normally someone with that score would have already been gone." When Scotch asked why AIC had not terminated his employment, Marchman replied she "was involved in this, that Melinda [Lester] and Larry [Richman] wanted to get rid of [him], but she was fighting for [him]."
Later in June, Scotch tried to meet with Marchman to place a letter in his personnel file. He brought the letter with him to campus three times before he was able to give it to Marchman, on the day of graduation. (It is unclear whether this was the same meeting as that on June 16.) The letter,in order to maintain my person[al] safeguards." On March 15, 2006, Scotch told Richman he was unhappy with his evaluation and PPAR score and informed him he had a "`long-term illness'" affecting his job performance and ability to pursue a master's degree.
Although it is disputed whether Scotch told Marchman his condition did not affect his job performance or ability to perform his job, Scotch presented undisputed evidence he told Marchman he needed to avoid stress. Marchman told Richman and Lester that Scotch had a health condition. In the March 23 meeting with Lester, Scotch focused the discussion on pursuing a master's degree because that is what Marchman advised him to do.
This evidence is sufficient to show Scotch initiated the interactive process and, by March 23, AIC had become


concluded an employee may prevail on a claim for failure to engage in the interactive process without prevailing on a claim for failure to make reasonable accommodation. The panel reasoned a good faith interactive process was necessary to determine what reasonable accommodations were available: "An employer may claim there was no available reasonable accommodation. But if it did not engage in a good faith interactive process, `it cannot be known whether an alternate job would have been found.' [Citation.] The interactive process determines which accommodation is required. [Citations.] Indeed, the interactive process could reveal solutions that neither party envisioned." (Ibid.) Because an employee does not have extensive access to information concerning possible accommodations, an employer could limit its own liability by withholding information that could lead to ain staffing, retention of faculty will be based on a combination of professional expertise, credentials appropriate to respective curricular areas, the school's assessment of job performance and length of service. The determination will be at the discretion of the school."


Purification and properties of an extra cellular xylanase enzyme of Clostridium strain SAIV.
An extracellular xylanase enzyme fraction A from a mesophilic Clostridium strain SAIV was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, Sephadex G-50 gel filtration and DEAE-Sephadex A-50 ion exchange. The xylanase exhibited a molecular weight of approximately 30,000 and it was stable upto 55 degrees C with an optimum temperature of 50 degrees C. It was most stable between pH 5-7, with an optimum pH of around 6. The Km value was 7.0 mg.xylan ml-1 and Vmax was 36 mumol.xylose liberated mg-1 min-1. Carboxymethyl cellulose, filter paper cellulose and 4-p-nitrophenyl beta-D-xylopyranoside were not hydrolysed. The specific activity of xylanase fraction A (9.8 U mg-1) is 2-10 fold higher than the specific activity of xylanase in other mesophilic, xylanolytic,familiar with it.

amalgamation of all
races of the world which our situation induces. It was the pride and
greatness of ancient nations to keep their blood unmixed; but it must be
ours to be willing to mingle, to accept in a generous spirit what each
clime and race has to offer us.

It is, indeed, the case that much diseased substance is offered to form
this new body; and if there be not in ourselves a nucleus, a heart of
force and purity to assimilate these strange and various materials into
a very high form of organic life, they must needs induce one distorted,
corrupt, and degraded beyond the example of other times and places.
There will be no medium about it. Our grand scene of action demands
grandeur and purity; lacking these, one must suffer from so base failure
in proportionthe songs of the slave,
and is also a good specimen of the powers of observation and manly heart
of the writer. We wish that every one may read his book, and see what a
mind might have been stifled in bondage--what a man may be subjected to
the insults of spendthrift dandies, or the blows of mercenary brutes, in
whom there is no whiteness except of the skin, no humanity except in the
outward form, and of whom the Avenger will not fail yet to demand,
"Where is thy brother?"

"The Home Plantation of Colonel Lloyd wore the appeaance of a country
village. All the mechanical operations for all the farms were performed
here. The shoemaking and mending, the blacksmithing, cartwrighting,
coopering, weaving, and grain-grinding, were all performed by the slaves
on the Home Plantation. The whole place wore


us one of his novels every week in
the year.

Here end our praises of Balzac; what he is, as a man, in daily life, we
know not. He must originally have had a heart, or he could not read so
well the hearts of others; perhaps there are still private ties that
touch him. But as a writer, never was the modern Mephistopheles, "the
spirit that denieth," more worthily represented than by Balzac.

He combines the spirit of the man of science with that of the amateur
collector. He delights to analyze, to classify; there is no anomaly too
monstrous, no specimen too revolting, to insure his ardent but
passionless scrutiny. But then he has taste and judgment to know what is
fair, rare, and exquisite. He takes up such an object carefully, and
puts it in a goodpart sophisticated, may retain, where the heart still
beats warmly, though it sometimes beats amiss. Write, paint, argue, as
you will, where there is a sound spot in any human being, he cannot be
made to believe that this present bodily frame is more than a temporary
condition of his being, though one to which he may have become
shamefully enslaved by fault of inheritance, education, or his own
carelessness.

Taken in his own way, we know no modern tragedies more powerful than
Balzac's "Eugenie Grandet," "Sweet Pea," "Search after the Absolute,"
"Father Goriot." See there goodness, aspiration, the loveliest
instincts, stifled, strangled by fate, in the form of our own brute
nature. The fate of the ancient Prometheus was happiness to that of
these, who must pay, for ever having believed there was divine fire in
heaven, by agonies of


suicidal work.

It is cheering to know how great is the influence such a writer as Sue
exerts, from his energy of feeling on some subjects of moral interest.
It is true that he has also much talent and a various experience of
life; but writers who far surpass him here, as we think Balzac does,
wanting this heart of faith, have no influence, except merely on the
tastes of their readers.

We observe, in a late notice of Sue, that he began to write at quite
mature age, at the suggestion of a friend. We should think it was so;
that he was by nature intended for a practical man, rather than a
writer. He paints all his characters from the practical point of view.

As an observer, when free from exaggeration, he has as good an eyeGoriot,) we hope; but
presently we see him sneering behind the mask, and we fear. Let
Frenchmen speak to this question. They know best what disadvantages a
Frenchman suffers under, and whether it is possible Balzac be still
alive, except in his eyes. Those, we know, are quite alive.

To read these, or any foreign works fairly, the reader must understand
the national circumstances under which they were written. To use them
worthily, he must know how to interpret them for the use of the
universe.

THE NEW SCIENCE, OR THE PHILOSOPHY OF MESMERISM OR ANIMAL MAGNETISM.[21]

Man is always trying to get charts and directions for the super-sensual
element in which he finds himself involuntarily moving. Sometimes,
indeed, for long periods, a life of continual activity in supplying
bodily wants or warding off bodily dangers will make him inattentive to
the


before time was; and whenever we are so finely
organized that we can penetrate into that region where the air is music,
we hear those primal warblings, and attempt to write them down, but we
lose ever and anon a word or a verse, and substitute something of our
own, and thus miswrite the poem. The men of more delicate ear write down
these cadences more faithfully, and these transcripts, though imperfect,
become the songs of the nations."

Thus have we, in a brief and unworthy manner, indicated some views of
these books. The only true criticism of these or any good books may be
gained by making them the companions of our lives. Does every accession
of knowledge or a juster sense of beauty make us prize them more? Then
they are good, indeed, and more immortal thanwho have lost their customary food.

Another sign of the times is, that there are left on the earth none of
the last dynasty of geniuses, rich in so many imperial heads. The world
is full of talent, but it flows downward to water the plain. There are
no towering heights, no Mont Blancs now. We cannot recall one great
genius at this day living. The time of prophets is over, and the era
they prophesied must be at hand; in its couduct a larger proportion of
the human race shall take part than ever before. As prime ministers have
succeeded kings in the substantiate of monarchy, so now shall a house of
representatives succeed prime ministers.

Altogether, it looks as if a great time was coming, and that time one of
democracy. Our country will play a ruling


its Christmas evergreens; the music struck up
and the company entered.

And these are the people who, half a century ago, would have been
chained in solitary cells, screaming out their anguish till silenced by
threats or blows, lost, forsaken, hopeless, a blight to earth, a libel
upon heaven!

Now, they are many of them happy, all interested. Even those who are
troublesome and subject to violent excitement in every-day scenes, show
here that the power of self-control is not lost, only lessened. Give
them an impulse strong enough, favorable circumstances, and they will
begin to use it again. They regulate their steps to music; they restrain
their impatient impulses from respect to themselves and to others. The
Power which shall yet shape order from all disorder, and turn ashes to
beauty, as violets spring up from green graves, hath thempleasures the only
occasion that demands Thanksgiving.

And suppose, while the children were absent on their errands of justice,
as they could not fail to think them, if they compared the hovels they
must visit with their own comfortable homes, their elders, touched by a
sense of right, should be led from discussion of the rivalries of trade
or fashion to inquiry whether they could not impart of all that was
theirs, not merely one poor dinner once a year, but all their mental and
material wealth for the benefit of all men. If they do not sell it _all_
at once, as the rich young man was bid to do as a test of his sincerity,
they may find some way in which it could be invested so as to show
enough obedience to the law and the


our present social system, are
agreed that either great improvements are needed, or a thorough reform.

Those who desire the latter include the majority of thinkers. And we
ourselves, both from personal observation and the testimony of others,
are convinced that a radical reform is needed; not a reform that rejects
the instruction of the past, or asserts that God and man have made
mistakes till now. We believe that all past developments have taken
place under natural and necessary laws, and that the Paternal Spirit has
at no period forgotten his children, but granted to all generations and
all ages their chances of good to balance inevitable ills. We prize the
past; we recognize it as our parent, our nurse, and our teacher; and we
know that for a time the new wine required the old bottles, tomy time and place. It has greatly encouraged
me, for none can sympathize with thoughts like mine, who are permanently
insnared in the meshes of sect or party; none who prefer the formation
and advancement of mere opinions to the free pursuit of truth. I see,
surely, that the topmost bubble or sparkle of the cup is no voucher for
the nature of its contents throughout, and shall, in future, feel that
in our age, nobler in that respect than most of the preceding ages, each
sincere and fervent act or word is secure, not only of a final, but of a
speedy response.

I go to behold the wonders of art, and the temples of old religion. But
I shall see no forms of beauty and majesty beyond what my country is
capable of producing in myriad variety,


        IV.

    Gone is life's primal freshness all too soon;
      For me the dream is vanished ere my time;
    I feel the heat and weariness of noon,
      And long in night's cool shadows to recline.

FLAXMAN.

    We deemed the secret lost, the spirit gone,
      Which spake in Greek simplicity of thought,
      And in the forms of gods and heroes wrought
    Eternal beauty from the sculptured stone--
    A higher charm than modern culture won,
      With all the wealth of metaphysic lore,
        A dearer love has torn thee from my side;
      Scenes, friends, to me unknown, now claim thy care;
      No more thy joys or griefs I soothe or share;
      No more thy lovely form my eye shall bless;
      The gentle smile, the timid, mute caress,
    No more shall break the icy chains which may my heart oppress.

Miss Martineau was a remarkable
woman, in a century that has not been deficient in notable characters.
Her native genius, and her perseverance in developing it; her trials and
afflictions, and the determination with which she rose superior to them;
her conscientious adherence to principle, and the important place which
her writings hold in the political and educational literature of her
day,--all combine to make the story of her life one of exceptional
interest.... With the exception, possibly, of George Eliot, Harriet
Martineau was the greatest of English women. She was a poet and a
novelist, but not as such did she make good her title to distinction.
Much more noteworthy were her achievements in other lines of thought,
not usually essayed by women. She was eminent as a political economist,
a theologian, a journalist, and a historian.... But toprove highly beneficial."--_Troy Telegram._

MARY LAMB.

BY ANNE GILCHRIST.

One volume. 16mo. Cloth. Price, $1.00.

"The story of Mary Lamb has long been familiar to the readers of Elia,
but never in its entirety as in the monograph which Mrs. Anne Gilchrist
has just contributed to the Famous Women Series. Darkly hinted at by
Talfourd in his Final Memorials of Charles Lamb, it became better known
as the years went on and that imperfect work was followed by fuller and
franker biographies,--became so well known, in fact, that no one could
recall the memory of Lamb without recalling at the same time the memory
of his sister."--_New York Mail and Express._

biography of Charles


"tree of life," according to what was told me, at the time of our intimacy, by the friend with whom I was still involved well after my emergence from the Hôpital Claude-Bernard and from whom I had wanted to know what the ornament was that I saw, at the level of her shoulder, against the damask whiteness of the material in which she was clothed that morning. Thus, while I, lagging behind the woman from Brussels who was veiled by the muslins of time and who had become a shade flushed with fabulous glimmers, had become taken with a dubious idealism, a subterranean sort of work was taking place, so well hidden that a moment would come when I could imagine myself deflected from the fleshless entity fromfeel their weight a little more, to elude!

An adventure whose setting, during the "phony war," was South Oran provided me with the occasion for a portrait: the Algerian Khadidja in whom I admired—a moral beauty almost as much as a physical one—her long goatherd's strides, a vestige (I liked to think) of a nomad ancestry from whom this recluse with her lowly profession might have derived a part of her nobility. It was on the eve of my departure for China that the story of our meeting appeared; the sixteen years that had elapsed had no doubt marked my companion of the Béni Ounif _bousbir_ enough to alter perceptibly her resemblance to the portrait, already retrospective, that was contained in my notebooks. In order to find her again


one another: parlor games. Card tricks, I am almost sure, for it is a trick of this sort—probably one element of a series—that is the subject of the memory on account of which the afternoon in question retains for me, despite the gaps and the doubts about certain details, the same definition as, for example, the outings with heroic gallops that my brothers and I took on rented ponies or donkeys along the beach, largely exposed during the hours of low tide. Though I did not know any tricks and could only gape at those with which one or two of the grown-ups must already have regaled us, this was what I accomplished: they invited me to leave the room, where a deck of cards was spread outout of its darkness to incorporate it in my interior landscape, I have set it beside other reds, sometimes deep, sometimes worn or washed out, that I keep in my memory: the color of lambrusco, a sparkling wine whose taste of dead leaves I love and which I cannot separate from the largest of the towns in which I have drunk it, the old and lively Bologna, where the struggles between factions have calmed down but whose faded red houses and arcaded streets, after the day's turmoil, become at night so muffled and silent that one would believe the only creature awake there is the hired assassin hidden in one of the cells which your footstep will expose; the tones, warm but fragmented and attenuated, of the ruins

of rapidly changing dynamic populations ([@ref-5]): new subjects undergoing selective immigration patterns continue to contribute to the growth of immigrant groups; moreover, the global process of westernization of dietary habits and other risk factors is heavily involving most emigration countries, and many young adults coming to Europe have probably already acquired risk profiles associated with nutritional habits and metabolic attributes in their country of origin ([@ref-12]). To address the transition of mortality patterns, it would be necessary to compare mortality figures also with those of the countries of origin; however only few previous studies were able to collect relevant data to investigate this issue ([@ref-25]). Furthermore, it should be taken into account that the health status of different populations of immigrants could depend on differences not only inMyotube formation on gelatin nanofibers - multi-walled carbon nanotubes hybrid scaffolds.
Engineering functional muscle tissue requires the formation of densely packed, aligned, and mature myotubes. To enhance the formation of aligned myotubes with improved contractibility, we fabricated aligned electrospun gelatin multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) hybrid fibers that were used as scaffolds for the growth of myoblasts (C2C12). The MWNTs significantly enhanced myotube formation by improving the mechanical properties of the resulting fibers and upregulated the activation of mechanotransduction related genes. In addition, the fibers enhanced the maturation of the myotubes and the amplitude of the myotube contractions under electrical stimulation (ES). Such hybrid material scaffolds may be useful to direct skeletal muscle cellular organization, improve cellular functionality and tissue formation.

A recent report by McKinsey found that most IoT data remains largely unutilized because current use cases extract very little value from current use cases that track a single or few activities that trigger alerts when outcomes don’t match expected performance. Strategic uses of IoT data, such as the optimization of operations, will be far more valuable. Such use cases will require data and analysis for an entire cycle of activities inside the enterprise and extendinggoal was somehow the product of Northern feminists and that conservative Muslim states won't stand for it. We of course know that's not the case. Further, we understand that substantial pressure from the Holy See and a few conservative countries (who reserved on "reproductive health" in Cairo and consistently thereafter) was instrumental in making sure the phrase "reproductive health" and the RH goal did not make it into the Millennium Declaration. (In fact, the Holy See is extremely active on this issue in the current preparations for the UN's Child Summit). We are now facing the very real possibility that these opponents of ICPD will succeed in removing RH and the RH goal indirectly where they could not do it directly in past negotiations.

Delirium (acute confusion) frequently complicates the acute illness of elders, resulting in both short- and long- term adverse impacts on health. In recent years, there has been substantial progress in defining and assessing delirium, describing its incidence and prevalence in several clinical populations, identifying its risk factors, and even developing strategies for its prevention. Yet, once delirium occurs, optimal management remains poorly understood. One of the areas of greatest controversy is the use of psychoactive medications in delirious patients. Psychoactive medications are used frequently in this population, either for the management of delirium itself, or for comorbid conditions, such as sleep disorders and pain. While there has been progress in identifying medications as risk factors for incident delirium, the use of medications in established delirium, and their roleQ:

Making the speaker play a certain frequency of sound

I'm trying to make the piezo speaker play a sound of certain frequency. However, although I think the code is fine, the sound plays with a frequency between 130 ~160 only, and the frequency actually drops when it should be going up.
The code is as below:
digitalWrite(buzzer, LOW);
delayMicroseconds(1000000 / frequency);
digitalWrite(buzzer, HIGH);
delayMicroseconds(1);

What could be the problem?

A:

Have you looked at the Tone library?  That does what you want, with some other niceties besides.
Anyway, the (or at least "a") problem with your code is that you are leaving the signal LOW almost all the time. You want it to spend half the time high, half the time low:
digitalWrite(buzzer, LOW);
delayMicroseconds(500000 / frequency);
digitalWrite(buzzer, HIGH);
delayMicroseconds(500000 / frequency);

Electrical connectors are of primary importance in facilitating operation of an endless number of devices. The marketplace is flooded with connectors to meet the needs of virtually any electrically based project. Connectors take many forms. One common form of connector is a test lead and clip assembly. Such clips typically are composed of two main body parts. One end of the clip comes in contact with a conductor of interest. A compression section of the clip is formed by an interlocking connection of the two body parts of the clip. This compression section serves as a mechanism to open the clip by squeezing or compressing the clip at the compression section. Once this compression section is compressed and the conductive material of interest is introduced to the openparts.
These compression type of clips suffer from significant drawbacks. Since these components are mass produced and purchased and used in high volumes, attention to longevity and quality of the clip is often overlooked. Repeated opening and closing of the clip by exerting force to the compression area causes the compression member, such as a spring, to shift or become deformed within the opening formed between the two body parts. The shifting or movement of the spring causes deformation of the spring itself that prohibits effective opening and closing of the clip. In addition, movement of the spring within the clip causes misalignment of the main body parts of the clip, prohibiting effective operation of the clip. Movement and deformation of the spring and misalignment of the clip's main

The probability to have same hole cards on two tables of TH poker.

So i just wondering (as a math fun) how is the probability of hold the two hands of the same class? To explain better, we define hands as JsTd and JcTh as the same class hand, because thay have the same strong. 9c9h and 9d9s are the same class too, and so on. If at table $A$ i have two hole cards and at table $B$ other two hole cards, which is the probability of holding the same class two hole cards on two tables?

The only thing that is currently known are the number of unknowns. With the ELD mandate looming a scant 3 months away, the regulatory outlook needs to come into focus rather quickly.

A Look at Post-ELD Spot Rates

When the ELD mandate does go into effect in December, there is one thing that many analysts pretty much agree on and that’s a tightening spot market. What’s the result? A likely rise in rates, at least in the short-term.

Further analysis shows that the ELD mandate could result in up to a 7% loss of capacity in the for-hire carrier segment. Overall industry capacity loss is said to total almost 4%. The main driver of this change is the inability of motor carriers to fudge the numbers anda little burned because the U.S. didn’t involve them in the consultation process. According to a Canadian official, they were flummoxed as to why the U.S. didn’t include them, but reports that the FMCSA is now doing everything they can to resolve some of the differences between both policies.

By the time the final rule was laid out, Canadian officials met to determine what the differences were between the U.S. rule and the Canadian rule from 2013. They also set out to make whatever changes were required to align the two documents. This job was made all the more difficult by there being a significant number of differences between the policies.

Waiting for a Resolution

The final cut of the standard has now been completed and was revealed back in July.


fleets have between now and 2017 to prepare. They will need to work closely with their customers to ensure a smooth transition without a major loss of business. Small fleets will have to successfully adapt to the new reality and ensure their customers are on board with them.

The fact is little adjustments can add up in a big way. While truck drivers may use a few hours of potential driving time as a result of ELD adoption, the primary question is when those hours will disappear. Quite frankly, it could mean the difference between a quick repositioning or an annoying layover, or perhaps making the delivery one day before you normally would.

This is the first time I’ve encountered such a paradox in my professional life.

In his Pulitzer prize nominated book, The Noonday Demon, Andrew Solomon recorded the writing of a woman suffering from severe depression. She wrote in her journal about the state of her mental health: “Feeling hopeless and full of despair is just a slower way of being dead.”

The Australian policy of offshore detention has engendered deep hopelessness and despair in hundreds of people who have done nothing to deserve such treatment. Indeed, many repeated to me in private therapy sessions that they felt as if parts of them had already died, and they feared never being able to find themselves whole again.

A disorder, such as a turbine trip, occuring in a nuclear electric-power production plant may necessitate the rapid shutdown of the nuclear reactor. Until now, the steam in steam generators used in pressurized-water nuclear plants has, at least partially, been dumped to the atmosphere upon an occurence such as a turbine trip. It has been proposed, for example, in German Offenlegungsschrift No. 24 59 150 that the resulting steam be instead condensed in auxiliary heat sinks and that the recovered condensate returned to the steam generator.
Because of the high blow-off efficiency of the blow-off valves, the steam is typically first dumped to atmosphere even when operating with a condenser of known type, since only the amount of heat limited by the design of the condenser and the permittedLooking for Tim Latvala?

Effects of Rifampin and Doxycycline Treatments in Patients With Uncomplicated Scrub Typhus: An Open-Label, Randomized, Controlled Trial.
Doxycycline is currently the most frequently used treatment in patients with scrub typhus. However, doxycycline-resistant strains have been found, necessitating the development of a new treatment. Rifampin is known to be effective even for such strains. Our aim in this study was to compare the effects of rifampin and doxycycline treatment in patients with scrub typhus in areas in which resistance to doxycycline has not been reported. Patients admitted to Chosun University Hospital and regional network hospitals between 2007 and 2009 with a body temperature ≥37.5°C and suspected to have scrub typhus were randomly assigned to 1 of 2 treatment groups: a group administered doxycycline 100 mg twice daily for 5 days{

The police have frozen the bank accounts of the accused and efforts are on to track down Mohanty, Ilyas, Anil Mukharjee and Manoj Das who are on the run.

Senior police officers said there were many complaints against Mohanty in Bhubaneshwar too.

“It is unfortunate that the victims are students and the educated class, including doctors, army officers and businessmen, who in sheer desperation to get a professional seat for their children fell prey to this gang. They did not even bother to check his background,” a senior police officer said.

State to seek centralised database

The Medical Education Department of Karnataka has decided to write to the Medical Council of India (MCI), urging the council to ask counselling agencies of


that they were planning to set up a more robust IT system to make the process more student-friendly and also to prevent malpractices.

Officials said despite several announcements made on the Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) website and in a brochure not to fall prey to touts or agents, many students had attempted to strike deals with colleges with the help of agents.

M.R. Jayaram, chairman, Karnataka Professional Colleges Foundation, said top colleges in the State do not employ agents, and students are misguided. “It is only colleges that do not have demand that employ agents,” he said.court's decision, ruling, sentence or decree, but all exceptions to any antecedent ruling, judgment, sentence or decree may be made in the final bill of exceptions complaining of a final judgment, irrespective of the time elapsing between the date of the ruling complained of and the presentation of the final bill of exceptions"  did not have the effect of reviving the right of review which was waived prior to the effective date of the statute, and this is so notwithstanding this same act provides that "this act shall apply to causes pending in the trial court at the time of its approval, and all causes subsequently filed."

FLASH.

Ouch! But also easy to understand, because two-and-a-half years is rather a long time to wait for a much-needed new client. Especially for a company that relies on the goodwill of sysadmins who spend rather a lot of time using software of this sort. ®loan from Real Madrid to Everton. Which he seems to have been doing for a little while to be honest.

8.31pm: Top football finances blogger Swiss Ramble is at his wits' end on Twitter. "I've been racking my brains trying to work out Arsenal's strategy this summer," he tweets. "But have come to the unhappy conclusion that there isn't one.

8.35pm: And while we're doing the Twitter thing, here's @JmsDmnd explaining Leicester's late notice business. "Leaving it late because they are desperate for a striker and were pinning their hopes on Nicky Maynard (staying put)," he says.

8.36pm: Oh dear, hearing that Robbie Savage has been criticising Arsenal's signing of Per Mertesacker on the grounds that the player didn't do well at Real Madrid. That's right readers, the same Real Madrid


never an option.

9.08pm: The end of Redknapp's conversation with Cotterill is interrupted by a phone call from Daniel Levy, but the Tottenham chairman hung up immediately - apparently realising his manager was on telly. The conspiracy theorists are already suggesting that this may suggest a big signing is still on the cards.

9.10pm: Yossi Benayoun seems to be hinting at that loan to Arsenal on Twitter: "staying in London...will sign soon ... i will twitt when it happens".

9.11pm: Cameron Jerome and Peter Crouch are undergoing medicals at Stoke right this second.

9.13pm: We're back to Tottenham, where Redknapp also had time to say that Luka Modric is staying, and that the club turned down a further bid from Chelsea yesterday. "£40m I think," says Redknapp.

9.18pm: @teessidedazza tweets in to pointtried. They do know that, don't they?

10.06pm: And now another Andy Hunter update: "Arteta has resurrected his transfer single-handedly, to the surprise of both Everton and Arsenal," he writes. "Everton's attempt to hold out for more than £10m weakened as a result."

10.07pm: So with, erm, 53 minutes left to go - here's what we are still waiting on:

• Mikel Arteta and Yossi Benayoun's anticipated moves to Arsenal (on permanent and loan deals respectively)

• A mooted move for Bryan Ruiz to Fulham (is this still alive?)

• The outcomes of medicals for Yakubu at Blackburn, Wilson Palacios and Peter Crouch at Stoke, Scott Dann and Yakubu at Blackburn

• Aston Villa completing deals for Tottenham's Jermaine Jenas and Alan Hutton

• The outcome of Craig Bellamy's last-minute arrival at Liverpool

10.12pm: Still waiting


'Arry!"

10.21pm: Sorry Fulham fans, sounds like the Bryan Ruiz deal may be off altogether.

10.24pm: Footage now of Shaun-Wright Phillips literally running in the door at QPR. Is this part of the medical?

10.25pm: To put the £400m combined Premier League transfer spend I mentioned earlier (it's now £410m, by the way) into context, they spent £215m in the January window, and £345m last summer. They did spend £432m in 2009 - though by the time all tonight's business is done we should have surpassed that.

10.29pm: Curious tweet from Wesley Sneijder. "I respect all the Man Utd fans, who supported me the whole transfer window," he writes. "I'm a winner and I will make you Interisti proud this season!!!!"

10.31pm: Lest there be any doubt, Sneijder made a follow up tweetadministrative judge reviewed the procedural history and stated:
"Why don't you go downstairs and get a new trial date. The only thing we can put on here  this is just to straighten out the record  the postponement was due to the severance and you had to call one of the defendants at that time....
"That will be noted on the file and a docket entry made.
"You go downstairs and get a trial date right now."
No mention was made of the expiration on August 9, 1981, of the 180-day time limit under § 591 and Rule 746.
Calhoun's trial was set for October 13, 1981, 245 days after his arraignment. On that date defense counsel moved that the charges against Calhoun be dismissed for noncompliance with § 591 and Rule
