The crimes done in the name of God

The SC postponed the Ayodhya verdict – again. I know perhaps a lot of people are relieved with the decision. I do not know any of them personally, so they cannot tell me why this is a good thing?

The weekend is salvaged? Perhaps. I give you one. But what else?

The verdict is a sword hanging over our heads… like the exams that you would rather get done and over with. If you were the sorts who liked it when exams were postponed, do not continue reading.

Every single person I know could say this little fact – “Friday there’ll be trouble.” For the people who are not aware of the situation… some million years ago, Hindus had a holy ground. It wasdestruction of Babri Masjid. The politicians who stood aside and cheered and instigated people to kill each other. Yes. You know the names I am talking about. The very people who have claimed no regret for the acts they committed.

If this was in the name of God, I’m sure God is weeping at the murders done in his name.

Bottomline – is there a point in postponing the verdict? Is there a point in India trying to pretend to the world that we are a “peace loving country” who have no corruption? The verdict could be postponed further because of the CWG, which is a disaster enough. Maybe I am being cruel but I just want to get it done and over with. Finish destroying what you will so


and Ms. Patillar went home.  She called defendant later at a restaurant to see if he had contacted anyone.  Defendant hung up, called her back and arranged to meet her at a Howard Johnson's.  At Howard Johnson's defendant went inside to make a telephone call, and received a busy signal.  When he came out, he and Ms. Patillar returned to Edwynna Royal's apartment.

Ms. Patillar gave defendant $300 she had obtained from the FBI.  The couple entered the apartment, and defendant gave Ms. Royal $375.  Ms. Royal left and returned about forty minutes later with three packages of cocaine.  Defendant picked up the packages, left the apartment with Ms. Patillar, gave her two packages and kept one.  Ms. Patillar dropped defendantcert. denied, --- U.S. ----, 107 S.Ct. 208, 93 L.Ed.2d 138 (1986).

Finally, defendant claims that transcripts of the recordings should not have been provided to the jury because Ms. Patillar testified the transcripts were inaccurate.  Defendant argues that the tapes only confused the jury and resulted in prejudice.  As it was for the tapes, the standard of review for the use of transcripts is abuse of discretion.    Devous, 764 F.2d at 1354.  The court in Devous commented that, when the parties had not stipulated to use the transcript, the best procedure for testing its accuracy is for "the trial court to make a pretrial determination of accuracy by reading the transcript against the tape...."

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is presently undergoing dramatic changes in the sociopolitical domain. The drive to modernise the kingdom and open it to the world is spearheaded by the young and ambitious Crown Prince Mohamed bin Salman (MBS). He is seen as the mastermind behind Riyadh's strategy to revamp the Saudi economy and limit the power of the clerics over state affairs.

"We are returning to what we were before - a country of moderate Islam that is open to all religions and to the world," MBS said to international investors in Riyadh in October 2017.

Explaining his ambition to "return" Saudi Arabia to the path of moderate Islam, the crown prince told the Guardian that "what happened in the last 30 years is not Saudi Arabia." He explicitlyblamed the kingdom's turn towards ultraconservatism on the Iranian revolution in 1979 and Tehran's attempts to spread the revolution across the Middle East.

These comments are remarkable for two reasons: first, because they acknowledge that moderation is lacking in the interpretation of Islam that the Saudi state has followed; second, because they reflect the notion that the religious system currently in place hinders socioeconomic development and is not compatible with the demands of the young generation.

Yet they are also somewhat misleading as they try to deflect responsibility for the situation inside Saudi Arabia to external factors, namely the 1979 Islamic Revolution. But was it really revolutionary Iran that pushed Saudi Arabia towards ultraconservatism?

Saudi Arabia in 1979

1979 is a significant year in Saudi history by all accounts. It is famously


author of The Book of Unity, which was rejected by most of his contemporaries in Mecca and Medina. Abd al-Wahhab preached returning to the Quran and the Hadith, rejected religious innovation (bidaa) and advocated eliminating practices (such as Sufi rites and veneration of saints) that are not grounded in the Quran. He even accused other Muslims of being infidels for following practices that were, in his opinion, un-Islamic and called for strict adherence to traditional Islamic law (sharia).

There was nothing new in Abd al-Wahhab's teachings which were based on some old ideas and constituted a revival of the Hanbali doctrine in the most ultraconservative form. It was, however, his religious zeal that ultimately drove him close to the Saud family.

MBS's policies are catering to young Saudis, but theypointing to things people can do for themselves, ways that services can improve and the need for systems to evolve to meet the needs of the Black population is something that a responsible city should do. If we want to meet the challenges of the next decade, we need all hands on deck and no-one should be left behind. Black minds are a terrible thing to waste.

HSC regulation occurs, concomitantly with providing information of how the bone marrow microenvironment couples and integrates extrinsic with intrinsic HSC fate determinants. It is the focus of this review to highlight some of the most recent developments concerning signaling pathways governing HSC fate.This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The purpose of this project is to explore the hypotheses that selective expression of meiosis activating and inhibiting genes exists in the primate ovary, and that targeting these genes will lead to the development of gamete-based, nonhomornal contraceptive agents. The Specific Aims are: (1) to evaluate the expression of genes involved in the resumption of meiosis in the primate ovary and to investigate the in vitro functions of selected candidates;(2)


Nucleotide and DNA uptake by Neurospora crassa: involvement of an uptake stimulating protein.
The basal and DUSF (DNA-uptake-stimulating factor, described previously by Schablik and Szabó (1981) FEMS Microbiol. Lett. 10, 395-397) stimulated uptake of [3H]DNA and radioactive nucleotides by Neurospora crassa (FGSC 1118, slime) cell-wall-less strain was studied. The uptake of [3H]DNA by the cells is a saturable and time-dependent process. The pH and temperature optimum for [3H]DNA uptake are pH 7 and 27 degrees C, respectively. Both basal and DUSF-stimulated uptake of [3H]DNA are inhibited by 2,4-dinitrophenol and iodoacetic acid. The inhibition of the basal uptake of [3H]DNA by cycloheximide is greater than the DUSF-stimulated uptake. The DUSF enhanced not only DNA-uptake but also that of the oligonucleotides and mononucleotides. DUSF binds both macromolecular [3H]DNA and [14C]AMP, andGuide" and the latter under the sub-heading "Disco's." See, e.g., Pl. Ex. 52-53.

C. Evidence of Confusion

The only proof of actual confusion offered by plaintiff consisted of the following discrete items of evidence: First, plaintiff introduced a letter received by plaintiff's "Tunnel Bar" from a correspondent who identified himself as a male model and actor, and asked to receive information about membership cards and to be included on the mailing list. From the suggestion of the author's personal attractiveness and his reference to membership cards, plaintiff asks me to conclude that this correspondent is referring to defendant's "Tunnel," which allegedly maintains a restrictive admissions policy to which such allusions would relate. Trial Tr. 56-57
Further, Robert Ader, the manager of plaintiff's "Tunnel Bar," testified that he would frequently overhear statements


similarities between plaintiff's "Tunnel Bar" and defendant's "Tunnel." Both are places of recreation; both serve alcoholic beverages; at least one night a week both appeal primarily if not exclusively to homosexual men; both offer entertainment of one sort or another, which may include erotic movies of interest to gay men. But this overlooks the substantial difference in what is offered to the patrons at each, and what the patrons actually do at each. The patrons in defendant's "Tunnel" on Sunday nights attend large events organized around dancing, an activity that is not available at plaintiff's "Tunnel Bar," which has no cabaret license and no dance floor. According to the testimony of Cohn, which I credit, people do not attend these events simply to stand around and drink, howeverdetermining their manufacturer or source than will the average purchaser of a ball of twine.
McGregor-Doniger Inc., supra, 599 F.2d at 1137. Moreover, the choice to spend time at a small bar where there is no dancing would appear to be qualitatively different from the choice to spend time at a large discotheque where there is dancing. The sharp difference in cost helps assure that such a choice in this case would be an informed one.[3] Accordingly, I find that the qualitative difference in what the parties *79 offer consumers and the degree of focus those consumers bring to making their choice, which in this case is their level of sophistication, both lessen substantially the likelihood of any confusion.
For the above reasons, I find that plaintiff has failed to

Harris I
, there was nothing in the record establishing the race of the two venire members in question.
Harris I
, 129 Ill. 2d at 172. Indeed, it is the absence of facts establishing Shealy’s and Brown’s race that is at the heart of defendant’s claim, which, as noted, is that his counsel was ineffective for failing to establish their race. The facts relating to this claim do not appear on the

In the case at bar, defendant’s
Batson
 argument turns on whether the reasons given by thein his rearview mirror, and when he saw him again, defendant was alongside Johnson’s car, on the right-hand side, with his left hand on the passenger door. Defendant hit the passenger door with his right hand, and Johnson stopped the car. Johnson could not see defendant’s hand when defendant hit the door. He saw only defendant’s “arm swinging.” A short time later, one of the officers recovered a gun from defendant.

Before this court, defendant argues that his counsel’s handling of the motion to suppress was deficient in three ways: (1) during the pretrial hearing on the motion to suppress, defense counsel failed to impeach Grady regarding his testimony as to the description that he was given by Chicago police; (2) during the trial, defense counsel failed to ask

Richardson

III. Second Capital Sentencing Hearing

The remainder of defendant’s claims refer to his second capital sentencing hearing, which was conducted on remand from
Harris I
. We consider each of these claims in turn.

A.
Testimony of Phyllis Ham Garth

Defendant argues that his counsel was ineffective for failing to call former Chicago police officer Phyllis Ham Garth as a witness during the eligibility phase of his second capital sentencing hearing. Defendant contends that Garth’s testimony would have impeached the credibility of Theresa Woods, the State’s chief witness, regarding whetherof defendant’s allegations that Szumigala gave false testimony and that Szumigala’s medical records demonstrate that this testimony was false. The difficulty with the State’s contentions is that they ignore the procedural posture of this case. As noted, this appeal is before us as a result of the circuit court judge’s dismissal of defendant’s amended post-conviction petition without an evidentiary hearing. This action by the judge came in response to the State’s motion to dismiss the petition. By seeking to dismiss the petition, as opposed to answering it, the State assumed the truth of the factually supported allegations contained in the petition, at least for purposes of the motion.

According to defendant, counsel’s failure to follow up and obtain Szumigala’s medical records so that he could use them to challenge Szumigala’s testimony constituted deficient performance on counsel’s part.

As
Strickland
instructs, we evaluate the reasonableness of counsel’s challenged conduct “from counsel’s perspective at the time,” taking all of the circumstances into consideration.
Strickland
, 466 U.S. at 689, 690, 80 L. Ed. 2d at 694, 695, 104 S. Ct. at 2065, 2066. Prior to the second sentencing hearing, defense counsel filed two motions for discovery pertaining to this matter. As defendant asserts in his amended post-conviction petition, one of these motions “specifically requested discovery regarding the testimony of aggravation witnesses,” and the other included a request for any reports of experts made in connection with the case, including theappellate counsel should have recognized this possibility and included this issue in his brief on appeal.

As noted, a claim of ineffective assistance of appellate counsel is evaluated under the same two-prong standard set forth in
Strickland
 for assessing claims of ineffective assistance of trial counsel.
Haynes
, 192 Ill. 2d at 476;
Richardson
, 189 Ill. 2d at 412. Where a defendant contends that appellate counsel was ineffective for failing to raise an issue, the defendant must show that this failure was objectively unreasonable and that the defendant suffered prejudice as a result. Both prongs of this test must be satisfied in order to prevail on an ineffective assistance claim.
Morgan
, 187 Ill. 2d at 530. In order to satisfy the first prong,
i.e.
, that counsel’s performance was deficient, the


other-crimes evidence at the time when defendant’s appeal in
Harris II
 was filed. Based on the legal landscape in 1993 regarding this issue, a reasonably competent attorney might very well have declined to raise this question on direct appeal.

Defendant also points to an affidavit of Charles Hoffman, his appellate counsel in his appeal in
Harris II
. In this affidavit, which was attached to defendant’s amended post-conviction petition, Hoffman states that his failure to raise on direct appeal the admissibility of Szumigala’s victim impact testimony was not a “strategic decision.” Rather, Hoffman indicates that he failed to read the
Howard
 decision carefully enough to realize that the issue of the admissibility of such other-crimes evidence had been left unanswered in
Howard
. Accordingly, at the time he prepared defendant’s briefCompile Heart has announced a project titled Galapagos RPG, that aims to create new RPGs with a Japanese style, aimed towards Japanese gamers.[14][15] The first game from this project is a "Fantasy RPG" with a dark tone called Fairy Fencer F,[16] and the second being Omega Quintet.[17]

What We Believe

1. The Scriptures

We believe that both the Old and New Testaments are inerrant, infallible and God-breathed, and therefore are the final authority for faith and life. The sixty-six books are the complete and divine revelation of God to Man. Through the providence of God, the Scriptures have been preserved. The Authorized King James Version of the Bible shall be the official translation used for church functions. (Psalm 19:7; 2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21).

2. God

We believe that there is only one true and living God existing in three Persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—each a distinct Person, but all of one essence and all having the same nature, perfections, and attributes, and each is worthy of precisely the same worship, confidence, and obedience (Genesis 1:26;

security. Transaction trust means that we have to ensure that the P2P service we’re accessing is the correct one, the valid one, and that the service met some business trust criteria (outside of the technology realm with the latter).

Service or Peer discovery — still probably one of the more complicated issues about P2P. How do we find services? How do we find P2P circles? How do market our services?

Peer rediscovery — this is where the iron hits the cloud in all P2P applications I know of. You start a communication with another peer, but that peer goes offline. How do you take up the conversation again without the use of some centralized resource? Same could also be applied to services.

The file transfer nature of Napster or Freenet, and the IM nature of Jabber don’t necessarily consume all of these aspects of P2P applications, so haven’t necessarily pushed the P2P bubble to the max. However, when we start talking about P2P services — a variation of web services one could say — then we know we’re going to be stretching both our technology capabilities and our trust of


ASR. Moore cautions that last year Brazil had optimal conditions in the Matto Grasso area and ASR occurred on vegetative soybeans.

However, the most susceptible stages to ASR are reproductive — flowering and later. Moore hopes the sentinel plots reach the most susceptible stages well in advance of the bulk of producers’ crops.

“If ASR does move in, we’ll be able to detect it on sentinel plot beans that are blooming or setting pods while producers’ crops haven’t yet reached that stage.”

There are differences between Mississippi and Matto Grasso soybeans and ASR.

The contribution of the liver to the increased metabolic efficiency of the obese rat (fa/fa) was examined. Oxygen consumption of isolated hepatocytes and isolated mitochondria, and hepatic activities of mitochondrial enzymes were measured. Hepatocyte oxygen consumption was similar in the obese and nonobese rats for all substrates tested. Mitochondrial respiration also was similar in both phenotypes for all substrates tested. Activities of citrate synthase, succinate dehydrogenase, and cytochrome oxidase were similar for obese and nonobese rats. Taken together, these data show that in vitro hepatic oxygen consumption and oxidative capacity are similar in obese and nonobese rats. Rates of mitochondrial respiration with palmitoylcarnitine further show that the capacity for hepatic lipid oxidation is similar


Introduction {#Sec1}
============

One pervasive signature of this era dominated by anthropogenic activities is the increasing release and accumulation of chemical pollution in the environment^[@CR1]^, notwithstanding that its dangers are known since two centuries ago^[@CR2]^. Biodiversity loss is occurring at unprecedented rates, and has been cited as a consequence of widespread anthropogenic environmental changes, including chemical pollution^[@CR3],[@CR4]^. Many aquatic inland environments are hotspots of biodiversity, but are highly endangered because human demands on freshwater ecosystems have risen steeply over the past century leading to large and growing threats to their biodiversity around the world^[@CR5]^.

The toxic effect of chemical pollutants in aquatic communities is determined by the inherent sensitivities of the single species present in the community and by the ecological relationships between them^[@CR6],[@CR7]^. Moreover, the role of ecological interactions onvessels at 22 °C and 5 g L^−1^ salinity. These clonal linages were maintained isolated under same conditions described in 'Isolation of rotifers' section. Previous to experiments, multi-clonal pre-experimental populations were established by mixing 25 females of each clone^[@CR46]^ to obtain a pre-experimental population of 25 × 15 = 375 individuals for each species. The rotifers were transferred from the pre-experimental cultures to the experimental food concentration 1 h before the experiments. For that purpose, these cultures were filtered through a 50 µm mesh, and the retained rotifers washed with saline water at 5 g L^−1^ to eliminate any remnants of algae. Afterwards, 20 rotifers from the multi-clonal culture were transferred to a well from multiwell plates containing 2.5 mL of culture medium with the experimental concentration of algae of 1 × 10^6^ cells·mL^−1^. The wells were kept for 10 hour in

Secretory patterns and metabolic clearance rate of porcine growth hormone in swine selected for growth.
Eleven Landrace pigs (six boars and five gilts, 50 kg) representing lines selected for three generations for maximum weight at 200 d of age were compared to eight pigs (four boars and four gilts, 50 kg) representing contemporary randomly selected Landrace controls to determine the effect of selection for growth on the metabolic clearance rate (MCR) and plasma concentrations of porcine growth hormone (GH). To estimate MCR of GH, the disappearance of a bolus of porcine GH was monitored over 120 min following its i.v. injection. Blood samples also were collected every 15 min over a 6-h period before injecting GH to determine baseline and overall mean GH concentrations, mean peak amplitude and number


the strains, as described previously ([@R17]).

DNA extraction, PCR, and sequencing {#s2c}
-----------------------------------

Total genomic DNA (gDNA) was extracted from mycelium using DNeasy Plant Mini kit (Qiagen, Chatsworth, CA). We amplified and sequenced six nuclear loci (large and small subunit rDNA, internal transcribed spacers 1 and 2, including 5.8S rDNA, RPB2, TEF1-α and β-tub) from gDNA using the standard primers set. Primer sets, thermo cycling programs and sequencing procedures were performed as described previously ([@R17]). The amplification of beta-tubulin intron 3 (hereafter named as "β-tub") was as in [@R46].

Phylogenetic analyses {#s2d}
---------------------

We used five nuclear loci for phylogenetic analysis: large subunit rDNA (LSU), ITS region, RPB2, TEF1-α, and β-tub. The gene for small subunit rRNA (SSU), although sequenced, was not included in our phylogenetic reconstructions since it carried too little phylogenetic signalchecked in TRACER v. 1.5 ([@R34]). The first 30 % (50 % for four-gene analysis) of the resulting trees was eliminated from the further analysis. The rest were used to generate a 50 % majority rule consensus tree and calculate posterior probabilities (PP). The consensus tree was visualized and edited with TreeGraph v. 2.0.47-206 beta ([@R41]) and Adobe Illustrator CS6 (Adobe Systems, San Jose, CA). The node supports were considered to be strong if they received joint scores of ML\>90 and PP\>0.94. Newly generated sequences from the studied strains were deposited in GenBank with accessions listed in [Table 3](#T3){ref-type="table"}. Phylogenetic analyses were deposited in TreeBase (submission ID 14196).

RESULTS {#s3}
=======

Isolated strains {#s3a}
----------------

On the selective AA medium buffered at pH 10 and containing antibiotic, we isolated 34 strains of filamentous


fungi from soda soils adjacent to the soda lake basins. Several of the isolated strains were deposited in CBS and VKM. All strains showed asexual acremonium-like sporulation and one displayed comprehensive sexual morphological features and was found to be a new species of the *Emericellopsis* lineage based on molecular, morphological and growth data (*see below*).

Molecular phylogenetic analyses {#s3b}
-------------------------------

The alignment for the first phylogenetic analysis using the LSU gene contained 962 characters, with 162 (17 %) being phylogenetically informative ([Table 2](#T2){ref-type="table"}). The negative log likelihoods (-Ln) of the ML and BI consensus trees were 4696.03 and 5111.82, respectively. The phylogenetic reconstruction based on LSU sequences of our isolates from soda lakes along with the pertinent reference sequences from hypocrealean acremonia is consistent with the topology described by [@R43], hencepotronii*" (isolate CBS 379.70F); the latter is a single isolate of an undescribed species that has so far only been isolated from a dolphin skin lesion, apparently not as an agent of infection ([@R46]). The marine species from *Fucus,* a brown seaweed, *A. fuci* (UAMH 6508), also grouped with our isolates from soda soils. There is not enough phylogenetic signal from our LSU-based phylogenetic reconstruction to resolve the *Emericellopsis*-clade further. Four new isolates from soda soils appeared to be in the sister clades, namely, two in the *sclerotigenum*-clade, one in the *Sarocladium*-clade and one in the *inflatum*-clade.

The very weakly supported M clade (57/1.0) predominantly contains isolates from marine and soda lake habitats, with the exception of *E. pallida* CBS 624.73 and the ex-type isolate of *E. minima*, CBS 190.55. Interestingly, eight of our new isolates from the soda soils fall into the M clade while the majority (22 strains) form a well-supported sister clade (82/1.0). We name that clade the "soda soils" clade. It comprises 22 of our isolates that collectively represent a new species named *E. alkalina* sp. nov. here. Of those 22 strains, one formed ascomata, while the others only displayed asexual structures. These structures were identical to those seenBaarn in The Netherlands. The generic name came from the close morphological resemblance of the ascospore ornamentation to that of *Emericella nidulans*, which was originally thought to be taxonomically related. Subsequent studies described additional soil-borne *Emericellopsis* species from various parts of the world ([@R40], [@R15], [@R27], [@R28], [@R1]). At the beginning of the 1960s, the genus contained five species and one variety. Ascospore size and shape constituted the major criteria used to distinguish species ([@R13]).

The beginning of the 1970s marked a new period in the study of *Emericellopsis* with the establishment of marine mycology. New *Emericellopsis* species were discovered in the sediments of soda lakes and along the seacoasts. *Emericellopsis stolkiae*, for instance, was isolated from the soil on the edge of the soda lake in south-western Wyoming,


Q:

threading for a windows service

I have made a service which reads an xml. In the xml i have Input directory and output directory. The service picks the files in the input directory and renames them and moves them to the output directory. I want to implement threading in the service. I want it to pick one node of xml in one thread and other in the other. Or it would even be good if irrespective of nodes one thread picks the first 10 operations to be performed and the next the next 10 and so on. So that all the nodes are processed in a parallel fashion. Can anyone help me on this? i tried reading through a few threading tutorials but could not gain much through them.= pathO + fname;

Removing lines from a txt file in batch

I need to check for certain processes (its a list of 20ish processes, so  wont list them all), and record which ones are running.  Then I need to kill them, run some other code, and finally reopen them...  The code will only run successfully if all the processes have been ended.
I'd welcome any suggestions, or just someone to explain why my code doesn't work.
What I've been doing, is using tasklist to check for each process, and write the results to a file, then I'm trying to remove the lines of the file where the process is not running (i.e. I get an "INFO:..." message)

Like many PopTech projects, the initial impetus came from a 2008 PopTech presentation by Gary Slutkin, founder and executive director of CureViolence. We were intrigued by CureViolence’s success in the precincts where they were working but were fully aware of the challenges the organization faced in scaling and replicating their model. Over the course of the next year PopTech and CureViolence met on a number of occasions to understand the challenges and benefits of expanding the model. A primary question was whether or not technology tools could play a role in expanding the model.

In 2010 we convened a PopTech Lab in Chicago that brought together about 50 individuals from fields as far ranging as crisis mapping, mobile technology, public health, criminal justice, data visualization and community


the edge of the desert, blessed with an eternal water source, had offered the three communities shelter against the aggression of the Neo-Assyrian empire. At Palmyra, the Samarians and the Arameans developed a civil religion that accommodated several religious traditions. No group had been asked to abandon its gods. The textual compilation of the Amherst papyrus is testimony to the mood of inclusivity that had characterized the coexistence of the three communities at Palmyra. This is the heritage they brought to Egypt.

Under the impact of the Babylonian expansionism of the sixth century BCE, the communities decided to transfer to Egypt. It proved to be a migration with momentous consequences. The Samarian community had thought of itself as primarily Aramean, but they came to be defined as Jewish as(map-indexed vector points)))

I recommend making the callbacks short & sweet - to limit the need to perform exception handling in C++ code.  If you're using wxPython, you could use it's robust async event system.  Or the callbacks could put events on a Queue and you could have a thread devoted to asynchronously executing callback/event code.
Even with Boost.Python magic, you'll have to get familiar with this portion of the Python C API when dealing with threads.  (Don't forget to wrap the C++ functions with Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS and Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS to release the GIL!)

on each site $m$ through the topological transition. For instance, there are six constructive-interference fringes on site $m=6$ when $t_{1}/t_{2}=1.2$, whereas there are five of them when reducing the coupling ratio to $t_{1}/t_{2}=0.8$. More generally, it shows that $N_{A}=m$ for $t_{1}/t_{2}=1.2$ and $N_{A}=m-1$ for $t_{1}/t_{2}=0.8$. In contrast, we do not observe such a change on sublattice B, where there are always $N_{B}=m$ constructive-interference fringes per site, regardless of the topological phase (Figs.\[ExperimentLDOS\]c,d).

To explain this striking feature in the LDOS maps near the edge, we focus on a semi-infinite SSH chain and describe the edge as an infinite potential barrier. Backscattering of the delocalised waves on the edge then leads to the LDOS [@dutreix2017geometrical] $$\begin{aligned}

or other covariates might be responsible for heterogeneity.

The value of DOR of SAA was 91.84 (95% CI, 16.78--502.80), as shown in the forest plot of [Figure 4](#fig4){ref-type="fig"}. Among these studies, we also detected significant heterogeneity (*I* ^2^ = 86.8%). The corresponding SROC curve was plotted in [Figure 5](#fig5){ref-type="fig"}, which shows the AUC was 0.96 with standard error of 0.02, and the pooled diagnostic accuracy (*Q*\*) was 0.90 with standard error of 0.03, showing a high overall accuracy of SAA for NS.

Four studies from included papers evaluated the use of the SAA test at 8--96 h after the first suspicion of sepsis. Accordingly, [Figure 6](#fig6){ref-type="fig"} shows the pooled sensitivity and specificity, and the diagnostic OR and SROC curve were shown in Figures [7](#fig7){ref-type="fig"} and [5](#fig5){ref-type="fig"}, respectively.

3.3. Comparison of the Diagnosticcut-off values, ranging from 1 to 75.17 mg/L, exist in the included studies. Publication bias might be generally difficult to be avoided in the meta-analysis, so we tried to include more studies and even adverse studies about the accuracy of the diagnosis of SAA to reduce the bias. To explore the reasons for heterogeneity, we considered the diagnostic cut-off point, which may partially explain this heterogeneity because of differences between studies. Therefore, we suspected that heterogeneity will be reduced by considering more studies for the SAA test, which might reduce the effect of different sampling, clinical settings, and other heterogeneity-caused factors.

CRP, a traditional useful marker, has been applied in clinic \[[@B40]\]. It is triggered by cytokines IL-6, TNF-*α*, and so forth and is a late marker of neonatal sepsis


also a useful marker which shows better accuracy than CRP for the diagnotic of NS in some aspects \[[@B16]\]. In our meta-analysis, the pooled diagnotic OR for the SAA test was also almost similar to that for the PCT test (59.74 versus 60.17). So, we believe that SAA is also a useful marker for the diagnosis of NS like CRP, PCT. Certainly, SAA cannot be replaced easily because it has a prognostic value as early as eight hours after the onset and before clinical signs. For example, des-arginine variants of SAA were identified as the most promising biomarkers, which can make neonatologists withhold treatment in 45% of nonsepsis neonates \[[@B46]\]. Moreover, SAA can be combined with sICAM-1, CRP, and sE-selectin to improve the diagnosis results, and it cansupport in the

before the 1717 highrise was contemplated, the backyards and exterior windows of several of

the Plaintiffs’ properties could be viewed from the two-story Maryland Manor Apartments. (See

Photos from Maryland Manor Apartments (DX 2); 10 RR 201-13). Complaints that residents

of the tower and their guests will be able to see window exteriors and backyards of some of the

Plaintiffs’ properties cannot support the imposition of strict liability. See RESTATEMENT (3d)

OF TORTS § 20, comment j (“An activity that is normal or usual is not abnormally dangerous.”).

      In addition, the danger of being observed by peeping toms is not an inherent danger of

the Project, any more than automobile accidents are an inherent danger of a street. The invasion

of privacy must be committed by a third person,care. Thus, there is no

evidence to support the imposition of strict liability on the theory that the lighting of the garage

will be abnormally dangerous.

       * Construction Annoyances. In addition to the absence of pleadings to support a nuisance

due to construction noises, there is no evidence that the type of building construction

contemplated at the Project site will be abnormal and out of place in its surroundings. See

nine deposition transcripts against the Losing Plaintiffs, and awarded the Prevailing Plaintiffs

all of their taxable costs. (CR 1717).

       Since 1717 should have been deemed the successful party in this suit within the meaning

of TEX. R. CIV. P. 131, the Court of Appeals should thus reverse the award of costs to the

Prevailing Plaintiffs and award costs as the district court should have – all taxable costs of court

should be awarded to 1717. See TEX. R. APP. P. 43.2(c) (appeals court can render judgment that

    On January 14, 2013, Penelope Loughhead filed an action under Rule 202 of the Texas

Rules of Civil Procedure to obtain pre-suit discovery about the construction plans for the Project.

On March 4,, 2013, this Court ordered defendant to provide certain construction information to

plaintiff.

           On May 1, 2013, six plaintiffs filed suit seeking damages and a permanent injunction to

       Thus, to prove that the Project was a private nuisance, plaintiffs had to show that it would

be "abnormal and out of place in its surroundings," and that it substantially interferes with

Plaintiffs' use and enjoyment of their land. In support of this proposition, plaintiffs argued that

the following factors constituted a nuisance:

           •   Increased traffic;

           •   Loss of privacy;

           •   Foundation damage to adjacent landowners due to settlement;

           •   Increased light to adjacent landowners;


    Plaintiffs suggest that this Court should enjoin the Project as permitted and then, if

defendant tries to skirt the injunction by building a slightly smaller buildi_ng, conduct a contempt

hearing to see· if defendant is complying with the injunction.            Unfortunately, plaintiffs'

suggestion is no solution. If defendant reduced the size of the building just slightly, defendant

would clearly not be violating plaintiffs' proposed injunction since defendant would not be

constructing the project as permitted.

       In short, an order enjoining the construction of the Project as permitted would not resolve

this controversy. Rather, the Court would be faced with a potentially endless series of lawsuits

or contempt motions testing whether various tweaks and revisions of                                                                           1211
Rather, this Court must simply balance the equities. On balance, the Court concludes that an

injunction should not be issued.

       Does this mean that an injunction can never be issued to stop a proposed project? Of

course not. But in weighing the equities in this case, the equities weigh

19                 MR. DOYLE:    Your Honor, I am told that
20 lots of people have expressed interest in attending and
21 there was concerns among them about whether there would
22 be room or not, so perhaps a larger room would make
23 sense.
24                 THE COURT:    I have reserved 17.
25                 MR. DOYLE:    Thank you, Your Honor.

23                MS. SOUTHWICK:   Correct, Your Honor.

8 as a form of nuisance as opposed to form of damages, so
9 we would request instruction No. 1 to be submitted.

   THE COURT:   Refused.

Tax revenue from sales that remains after funding regulatory operations will be deposited into the state's general fund.

Lowest marijuana tax rates

Michigan and New Jersey are poised to have some of the lowest marijuana tax rates in the country, which has sparked a debate about the best taxation strategy. Sales in Michigan will be subject to a 10 percent excise tax in addition to the standard 6 percent sales tax. The proposed bill in New Jersey imposes a 12 percent sales tax, and municipalities who host marijuana businesses can impose up to an additional 2 percent tax. The


Coast Guard does not want any vessel to become “trapped” between the two bridges.

Bridge speed limit slows

At the same time the Coast Guard announced its new bascule schedule for both bridges leading to the Island from the mainland, the Florida Department of Transportation lowered the speed limit on the Anna Maria Island Bridge to 35 mph for the duration of the construction project.

Manatee County Commissioner Jane von Hahmann, whose district includes Anna Maria Island, said she has asked the DOT to make the 35-mph speed limit permanent from the west end of the bridge to the Holmes Beach city limits.

At the same time, von Hahmann said, the county commission has requested a permanent 35-mph limit for the bridge.

At CES this week, HTC announced the TPCAST solution would go on sale worldwide in Q2 2017 for $249, although no other regional pricing was announced. That buys you the headset’s wireless receiver, transmitter and a battery capable of up to 90-120 mins run time. A larger 5 hour battery (seen below alongside the standard version) will be available too.

HTC had a heavy focus on accessories and peripherals for their SteamVR powered system at CES this year, launching both the Vive tracker and the Deluxe Audio Strap, a replacement for the Vive’s head harness. Regarding the upgrade and the TPCAST wireless add-on, which places a wireless receiver/breakout box and battery on the headset itself, HTC’s Daniel O’Brien confirmed that despite the chunkier

the coefficient, and x~i~ is the relative z-score-transformed gene expression of selected genes. We used the above formula to calculate a risk score for each HCC patient in the training (75% of TCGA patients) and internal validation (25% of TCGA patients) datasets.

Additionally, the loss and gain levels of CNVs have been confirmed using segmentation analysis and Genomic Identification of Significant Targets in Cancer algorithm (GISTIC) for CNV. To explore the clinical significance of the CNV or mutation, this TCGA cohort was divided into two HCC groups: "with mutation and/or CNV of 10 m^6^A regulatory" and "without CNV and mutation." We calculated the gene expression from RNA-Seq V2 RSEM release, and used log scale before analyzing the associations between gene expression and CNVs.

Based on the expression similarity of m^6^A RNA regulators, *k* =3 seemed to be a suitable selection with clustering stability increasing from *k* = 2 to 10 in the TCGA datasets ([Figure 4](#F4){ref-type="fig"}; [Figure S4](#SM4){ref-type="supplementary-material"}). However, we found that 116 out of 371 HCC patients clustered into one of these two groups in the TCGA dataset ([Figure 3B](#F3){ref-type="fig"}). Hence, we compared the clinical characteristics of these two groups clustered by *k* = 2, including cluster1 and cluster2 ([Figure 4D](#F4){ref-type="fig"}). The cluster2 subgroup is significantly correlated with no metastasis (*P* \< 0.0001), lower grade (*P* \< 0.01), and lower stage (*P* \< 0.0001; [Figure 3B](#F3){ref-type="fig"}). The cluster1 subgroup mainly contains HCC with higher grade and clinical stage at diagnosis.cells shown in [Fig. 3 A](#fig3){ref-type="fig"} were transfected with a Notch-responsive luciferase reporter. Luciferase activity was determined and normalized against the control conditions. Triplicate samples were averaged. Error bars represent the SEM. \*, P \< 0.05. (D) Immortalized MEFs obtained from wild-type (WT) or COMMD9-deficient (KO) littermate embryos were used. Cells were stimulated with Jagged1 (plate bound) or TGF-β (soluble), and the induction of Notch-responsive genes (*Hey1*,*Hey2*, and *Hes1*) or TGF-β responsive genes (*Junb*) was assessed by qRT-PCR. Triplicate samples were averaged. Error bars represent the SEM. \*, P \< 0.05.

Triplicate samples were averaged. Error bars represent the


However, COMMD5 and COMMD10 bound preferentially to COMMD9 over COMMD1. This suggested that COMMD9 and COMMD1 might coexist in overlapping but not identical complexes, and in agreement with this, different ratios of COMMD9 and COMMD1 recovery were noted in each immunoprecipitation (Fig. S5 A).

In an additional analysis, five COMMD proteins were immunoprecipitated, demonstrating once again that COMMD9 was best immunoprecipitated by COMMD5 and COMMD10 (Fig. S5 B). Furthermore, COMMD5 was also more abundant in COMMD9 and COMMD10 immunoprecipitations, and the equivalent observation was made regarding COMMD10 (Fig. S5 B). In contrast, COMMD4 and COMMD6 only coimmunoprecipitated minimal amounts of COMMD5, COMMD9, and COMMD10. Corresponding to these interactions, COMMD9 and COMMD5 were found to colocalize in cytosolic puncta ([Fig. 6 A](#fig6){ref-type="fig"}). Altogether, these observations suggested that COMMD5, COMMD9, andnot affect this receptor. Molecular mass markers (in kD) are shown. (D) In vitro binding between an immunopurified Notch2 C-terminal polypeptide and recombinant COMMD complexes was evaluated by coprecipitation. Only COMMD5-containing complexes bound to Notch2. Molecular mass markers (in kD) are shown.](JCB_201505108_Fig7){#fig7}

Next we examined the possibility that COMMD9-containing complexes are specifically involved in Notch2 regulation. To examine this, all 10 COMMD genes were individually silenced, and their effects on Notch2 expression were examined by immunoblotting. Only COMMD9 and COMMD5 silencing led to reduced Notch2 levels ([Fig. 7 C](#fig7){ref-type="fig"}). In agreement with this result, recombinant COMMD5-containing complexes were able to bind in vitro with an immunopurified C-terminal Notch2 polypeptide ([Fig. 7 D](#fig7){ref-type="fig"}). In contrast, COMMD1--COMMD6 complexes were unable to bind to Notch2. Collectively, these data suggest that COMMD9 forms


and COMMD10 interact preferentially with COMMD9 and depend on this protein for their interaction with the CCC complex. The data further suggest that COMMD9--COMMD5 complexes are particularly important for Notch trafficking and can bind with the cytoplasmic tail of Notch2 in vitro. This raises the possibility that distinct CCC subcomplexes are generated to regulate specific cargoes and that perhaps COMMD proteins assist in cargo selection in this pathway.

In addition, it is reasonable to speculate that COMMD9 is likely to regulate many more receptors besides Notch. The identification of additional COMMD9-regulated cargoes will require proteome-wide analyses, such as those recently used to uncover retromer-regulated cargoes ([@bib50]). This information would likely provide key insights that will be important to understand the developmental phenotypes resulting from *Commd9* deficiency. Our analysis identifiedseveral vascular and cardiac alterations, but the phenotype could not be ascribed entirely to the deficiency of a singular Notch receptor. For example, Notch1 deficiency has more prominent effects on arterial fate decisions ([@bib33]; [@bib15]; [@bib20]) rather than the phenotype in the venous vasculature observed here. Isolated *Notch2* deficiency is embryonically lethal at about the same stage as *Commd9* deficiency and is also associated with cardiac hypoplasia ([@bib21]; [@bib38]), but only a small percentage of these mutant embryos exhibit neural and abdominal hemorrhages ([@bib58]), as we routinely saw in *Commd9*-deficient embryos. Although *Notch3* deficiency is viable, combined *Notch2/Notch3* recapitulated more aspects of the phenotype of *Commd9*-deficient embryos. For example, concurrent deficiency of these factors results in frequent obstructions of the dorsal aortas and also leads to frequent cerebral


and abdominal hemorrhages, as we saw here ([@bib58]). However, this phenotype in *Notch2/Notch3*-deficient embryos is largely driven by smooth muscle--dependent signals; in contrast, smooth muscle deletion of *Commd9* did not recapitulate the embryonic lethality. Altogether, our interpretation is that the developmental phenotypes in *Commd9*-deficient embryos are likely the result of alterations in additional receptors. In this regard, the fact that *COMMD9* is frequently included in the genomic interval deleted in WAGR syndrome highlights the biomedical importance of understanding these events. Patients with WAGR are affected by a high risk for Wilms' tumors and have several congenital anomalies, including aniridia, genitourinary abnormalities, intellectual disability, and frequent cardiac anomalies ([@bib14]). We examined our heterozygote mice for any of these phenotypes and found no overt pathology, but cooperation between *COMMD9* andContainer Gardening: All i can say is WOW

locus on *RAD52*, involved in DNA double-strand break repair and homologous recombination, influenced risk of squamous cell lung cancer but not other cell types.

It is likely that many more common variants can be anticipated to contribute to lung cancer risk, although with effect sizes too small to reach significance in genome-wide analyses. It has been argued that there are diminishing returns in predicting disease risk from common marker SNPs, and greater effort should be spent investigating functional relevance of the GWAS findings. For example, evaluating the effect that SNP variation has upon expression and activity of nicotinic receptors can be explored by taking advantage of animal and cellular models of *CHRNA3* and *CHRNA5* knock-out animals \[[@B33],[@B34]\].

The book covers the last three years of King’s life, proceeding from a comprehensive treatment of Selma to his martyrdom at Memphis. Branch throws into clear relief the passionate dedication, tactical flexibility, and charisma that King brought to his leadership role. His book shows that civil rights, economic justice, and antimilitarism were connected elements of King’s ministry, from which he would not be shaken. Branch is candid about the reality that King, subject to immense pressures, was not without frailties. Surely personal weaknesses made him vulnerable to attack, but he never bartered

Id. at 251, 106 S.Ct. at 2511 (quoting Improvement Co. v. Munson, 81 U.S. (14 Wall.) 442, 448, 20 L.Ed. 867 (1872)).
The defendants contend initially that defendant DeVilbiss is not a proper defendant to plaintiffs' ADEA claims because he is not an employer under the ADEA. Plaintiffs contend that DeVilbiss is an employer under the ADEA based on an examination of the legislative history of the ADEA,


Kansas. Wanner responds that the record demonstrates that he was an employee covered by the ADEA.
The ADEA defines "employee" as follows:
The term "employee" means an individual employed by any employer except that the term "employee" shall not include any person elected to public office in any State or political subdivision of any State by the qualified voters thereof, or any person chosen by such officer to be on such officer's personal staff, or an appointee on the policymaking level or an immediate adviser with respect to the exercise of the constitutional or legal powers of the office. The exemption set forth in the preceding sentence shall not include employees subject to the civil service laws of a State government, governmental agency, or political subdivision. The term "employee" includesany individual who is a citizen of the United States employed by an employer in a workplace in a foreign country.
29 U.S.C. § 630(f).
The defendants have analyzed this definition and concluded that the following four classes of individuals are exempted from the definition: (1) any person elected to public office; (2) any person chosen by such officer to be on such officer's personal staff; (3) an appointee on the policymaking level; and (4) an immediate adviser with respect to the exercise of the constitutional or legal powers of the office. Thus, defendants argue that Wanner, as "an appointee on the policymaking level," is exempted from coverage of the ADEA. Wanner, on the other hand, suggests that the ADEA has exempted the following four classes of individuals: (1) an


the Kansas Civil Service Act.
We must begin with the question of whether the definition of employee under the ADEA includes an appointee on the policymaking level who is not appointed by an elected official. We find that it does. This court has not found a single decision in which the definition of employee as found in the ADEA or in an identical definition contained in Title VII has been interpreted in the manner suggested by the defendants. In the decisions discovered by this court, the courts have concluded that the ADEA only excludes coverage for appointees on the policymaking level chosen by elected officials. See, e.g., EEOC v. State of Vermont, 904 F.2d 794 (2d Cir. 1990); Stillians v. State of Iowa, 843 F.2d 276 (8th Cir.1988); EEOCFAYETTEVILLE, NC -- Travis Marcus has grown accustomed to hearing his name called. Forty-one times since the start of last season, Fayetteville State’s senior guard has heard it called as part of the team’s starting lineup. He’s heard it several more times after the 163 field goals he’s made as a member of the Broncos men’s basketball team.

But there was a time not too long ago when Marcus wouldn’t hear his name called, at least not in front of thousands of adoring fans at Felton J. Capel Arena. Back in the 2009-10 school year, Marcus was simply one of those fans, a regular student observing the basketball on display in front of him.

The specific aims are: 1) To further explore the relationship between C5 genotype, and allergen-induced AHR in mouse strains that carry functionally different alleles at the C5 locus and examine the effect of C5aR blockade on the allergic phenotype in resistant C3H mice; 2) To determine the effects of C5 genotype on the numerical and functional characteristics of dendritic cell subsets in the lung and their relationship to susceptibility to allergen-induced AHR in our mouse model; and 3) To examine the effects of C5 driven alterations in DC subset phenotype on antigen

I hope you are keeping well. If you have any feedback on Prazosin, please let me know. I'd really appreciate it.


Surprisingly, the opposite pattern is sometimes observed in historical data, for example for plants introduced to Hawaii and New Zealand [@3201Daehler2001; @3203Duncan2002]. A possible explanation is that closely related species not only compete with each other but also share characteristics that may confer a high intrinsic ability to survive and grow at the new location [@3203Duncan2002].

In the only experimental study on Darwin’s naturalization hypothesis that we know of, however, the establishment success of an invader in a microcosm bacterial community increased with the average phylogenetic distance to the recipient community [@3311Jiang2010]. In this case, it has also been confirmed that more closely related species had a higher overlap in resource use and were therefore competing more intensely. Additional support for the negative effect of competition at the establishmentA). As expected, $\tau_K$ decreases with increasing introduction rate and increasing fecundity advantage of the introduced species.

These patterns in $\tau_K$ are paralleled by a corresponding pattern in the variance of the expected time to extinction $\sigma_K^2$. The variance increases with increasing $\tau_K$ and thus also exhibits a minimum. To compare the distribution of extinction times to an exponential distribution where the expected value equals the standard deviation, we computed the ratio between the standard deviation and the expected value of the persistence time in our model. This ratio is close to one for parameter combinations that lead to a high persistence time and below one for parameter combinations where the extinction of the native species is relatively fast (Fig. \[fig:varianceratio\]).

The numerical evaluation of is practical only for small


community sizes. For moderate to large community sizes we derived an approximation for the expected time to extinction that is easier to compute and gives more insight into the dependence of persistence time on the parameters: $$\tau_K \approx K \cdot \int_0^1 \frac{1}{(1-\xi)^{\gamma}} \int_\xi^{1} \frac{(1-\eta)^{\gamma-1}}{\eta}\cdot e^{\beta\left[\xi(1-\xi)-\eta(1-\eta)\right]} \cdot e^{\delta (\xi-\eta)} d\eta \: d\xi,
\label{eq:T_Kdiff}$$ where $\beta := (\alpha-1)\cdot K$ is the rescaled advantage of being common and $\delta := (w - 1)\cdot K$ is the rescaled fecundity advantage of the introduced species.

The result is based on a diffusion approximation of the birth and death process described by equations and . The process is rescaled such that the native population size is expressed as a fraction of the total community and time is sped up by a factor $K$: $$X_K = \left(X_K(t)\right)_{t\geq0}=\left(\frac{N(K\cdott)}{K}\right)_{t \geq 0}.
\label{eq:rescaledprocess}$$ In the limit as $K$ goes to infinity while $\beta$ and $\delta$ are held constant, $X_K$ converges in distribution to the diffusion process $X$ with infinitesimal generator [see @3238Karlin1981 p. 195, and the supplementary material for a derivation]:

$$\begin{aligned}
Lf(x) & :=\frac{d}{dt} E\big[f\big(X\left(t\right)\big)|X(0)=x\big]\big{|}_{t=0} \nonumber \\
 & = x(1-x)\frac{d^2}{dx^2}f(x) + \big(-\beta \left(1-2x\right)\left(1-x\right)x - \gamma x - \delta x (1-x)\big)\frac{d}{dx}f(x)\:.
\label{eq:generator}\end{aligned}$$

The expected time to extinction of the native species when its starting frequency is $x$ is a solution $g(x)$ of the differential equation [@3238Karlin1981 p. 193] $$Lg(x)=-1\:
\label{eq:differentialequation}$$ with boundary conditions $g(0)=0$ and $|\lim\limits_{x \nearrow 1} g'(x)|<\infty$, where $\lim\limits_{x \nearrow 1} g'(x)$ denotes the left-sided limit at 1 (see supplementary material for details).

By numerically evaluating in R [@575Team2009] and using a golden section search algorithm [@1227Heath2002] we computed $r(\gamma,\delta)$, the value


of the native species ($N$), both native and introduced species coexist ($N\&I$), or the native species is extinct and the whole community consists of the introduced species ($I$). If both species have the same fecundity ($w = 1$) and the introduction rate is small, native and introduced species exclude each other with approximately the same probability from the coexistence point and the rate $\phi(\alpha)$ at which this happens depends very little on $\gamma$. Let $\psi(\alpha,\gamma)$ be the rate at which the nonnative species establishes. Then, analogously to , we can formulate a recursion for the expected time to extinction of the native species: $$\tau_N = \frac{1}{\psi(\alpha,\gamma)}+\tau_{N\&I}$$ and $$\tau_{N\&I}=\frac{1}{2\phi(\alpha)}+\frac{1}{2}\tau_N\:.$$

As solution for the expected time to extinction of the native species when there is currently no introduced individuals we obtainfecundity, the minimizing competition coefficient differs more from one than in the symmetric case. An intuitive explanation for this phenomenon is that in asymmetric cases the dynamics are strongly shaped by the differences in fecundity and large changes in the competition coefficient are required to affect these dynamics, whereas in the symmetric case small changes in the competition coefficient can tip the balance.

To understand in which states the system spends most of its time, it is useful to examine the quasi-stationary distribution of the Markov process, the limiting distribution of population sizes of the native species given that it is not extinct yet. This is computed by eliminating the first row and first column, which belong to the absorbing state 0, from the rate matrix of the Markov


incorporate more biological realism or to adjust them to specific biological systems, e.g. by including age or stage structure, which might in some cases influence the outcome of invasion and extinction dynamics [see e.g. @360LANDE1988].

Our finding, however, that the native species’ persistence time is minimized at intermediate intensities of competition, is robust to a wide range of model modifications. To illustrate this robustness, we examined a model in which the assumption of a fixed community size was relaxed, a model in which competition affects fecundity instead of viability, and a model with an alternative formulation of the transition rates similar to the one used in neutral community theory [see e.g. @702Etienne2007]. All these models produced a minimum at intermediate competition intensities (see supplementary material for details of theat only a countable number of values of $l$. Since the diffusion process is a rescaled Brownian motion, there is no point in the interval (0,1) that is exceptional compared to the other points and the points of discontinuity are placed according to some continuous probability distribution on the interval ($P(\text{discontinuity at } l)=0 \; \forall l$). For any discontinuity point thus the collection of paths for which the discontinuity is placed exactly at $l$ is a null set. Since the union of countably many null sets is a null set itself, the probability that a random path has a discontinuity at $l$ is zero. Therefore, the weak convergence of $X_K$ to $X$ implies the convergence of $\sigma_l(X_K)$ to $\sigma_l(X)$ according to the Continuous Mapping Theorem (Theorem 13.25


in the local community is created, with probability $1-m$ it is filled by the offspring of an individual that is already in the community and with probability $m$ by a migrant from the metacommunity [see e.g. @702Etienne2007]. In our case, immigrations from the metacommunity correspond to introduction events. In analogy to the transition rates in neutral community theory, we can reformulate our transition rates and as:

$$\lambda_n =\underbrace{\frac{c(K-n,n)\cdot (K-n)}{K}}_{\substack{\text{rate at which}\\ \text{members of the introduced}\\ \text{species die}}} \cdot \underbrace{(1-m)\cdot \frac{n}{(K-n)\cdot w+ n}}_{\substack{\text{probability that a}\\ \text{native individual} \\ \text{gives birth}}}
\label{eq:lambdaneutral_def}$$

and

$$\mu_n = \underbrace{\frac{c(n,K-n)\cdot n}{K}}_{\substack{\text{rate at which}\\ \text{native individuals die}}} \cdot \Big[ \underbrace{(1-m)\cdot \frac{(K-n)\cdot w}{(K-n) \cdot w+ n}}_{\substack{\text{probability that an}\\ \text{introduced individual} \\ \text{already in the community}  \\ \text{gives birth}}} + \underbrace{m}_{\substack{\text{probability that the} \\ \text{spot is colonized by a} \\proofs of lemmata \[th:tightness\] and \[th:uniqueness\] are not affected by the modification of transition rates and thus by Theorem \[th:weakconvergence\] the Markov process with transition rates and converges in distribution to the same diffusion process as the original Markov process.

Competition affecting fecundity instead of mortality {#competition-affecting-fecundity-instead-of-mortality .unnumbered}
----------------------------------------------------

An alternative formulation of the transition rates and in which competition affects the rate at which individuals give birth rather than the death rate, is:

$$\lambda_n=\underbrace{\left(2-\frac{c(n,K-n)}{K}\right)\cdot n}_{\substack{\text{rate at which} \\ \text{native individuals} \\ \text{give birth}}} \; \cdot \underbrace{\frac{K-n}{K}}_{\substack{\text{probability that an} \\ \text{introduced individual dies}}}

and

$$\mu_n=\underbrace{w_i \cdot \left(2-\frac{c(K-n,n)}{K}\right)\cdot (K-n)}_{\substack{\text{rate at which} \\ \text{introduced individuals} \\ \text{give birth}}} \; \cdot \underbrace{\frac{n}{K}}_{\substack{\text{probability that a} \\ \text{native individual dies}}}+ \; \gamma \cdot \underbrace{\frac{n}{K+1}}_{\substack{\text{probability that the}\\ \text{introduced individual} \\ \text{replaces a native one}}}\:.
