¶ 27 Two other factors to be considered are "the presence of safeguards that reduce the need for private damages actions as a means of controlling unconstitutional conduct" and "the correctability of error on appeal."*fn1 Cleavinger, 474 U.S. at 202. In the present case, such safeguards are provided by section 506(a)(3) of the Act, which states that child representatives must be attorneys who have received "training in child advocacy" or who possess experience "determined to be equivalent to such training by the chief judge of the circuit where the child representative has been appointed." 750 ILCS 5/506(a)(3) (West 2010). Such training or equivalent experience reduces the likelihood of the child representative committing unconstitutional conduct. The child representative is also restrained from committing unconstitutional conduct by his professional obligationsparties about matters related to the custody dispute. Golden, 611 F.3d at 361. The Seventh Circuit held that even assuming the truth of these allegations, Sigman still was carrying out her responsibilities as a child representative by speaking with the relevant actors about the custody proceedings and investigating the facts. Golden, 611 F.3d at 361. In this capacity, her actions closely resembled those of a guardian ad litem who was acting as an arm of the court and, as such, she was immune therefor. Golden, 611 F.3d at 361.

¶ 33 The Seventh Circuit found "[m]ore problematic" Golden's allegations relating to Sigman's work as an advocate, such as her preparation of certain court orders and her efforts to eliminate the role of the court-appointed psychiatrist:

The microscopic agglutination test (MAT) is still considered the gold standard for the diagnosis of leptospirosis, although studies have shown that the test is an imperfect gold standard for clinical samples and unsuitable for epidemiological studies. Here, test characteristics of an in-house ELISA were identified for both subclinical and clinical populations by Bayesian latent class models. A conditional dependence model for two diagnostic tests and two populations was adapted to analyse a clinical and a subclinical scenario, respectively. These Bayesian models were used to estimate the sensitivity and specificity of the in-house ELISA and the MAT as well as the prevalences. The Bayesian estimates of the in-house ELISA were: clinical sensitivity=83.0%, clinical specificity=98.5%, subclinical


The True Story Of Bernard Macfadden

In 1950 a biographer of the elderly Bernarr Macfadden—who by then was known primarily as an octogenarian health fanatic who took a parachute jump each year on his birthday—remarked that his subject’s boyhood adventures bore “a stunning resemblance to the pulp fiction of the period.” That is true but not surprising. Macfadden’s imagination always contained a healthy admixture of pulp; otherwise he could not have invented the confession magazine—“the first new idea in the publishing field in the last fifty years,” according to one contemporary authority—or have made so much money from it. And virtually all that is known about his life before 1893, when he arrived in New York City, comes either directly from him or from one of his worshipful authorizedNew Jersey Pine Barrens (this one he fought in vain to have incorporated as Physical Culture City), in Chicago, and in Battle Creek, Michigan, where, while trying out his milk cure for cancer, he became involved in a sanitarium war with the cereal kings Charles W. Post and the Kellogg brothers. A frequent guest at Physical Culture City recalled that “everybody [there] enjoyed a fad of his or her own. There was a little brown woman like the shrivelled inside of an old walnut, who believed you should imbibe no fluid other than that found in the eating of fruits. … There was a man from Philadelphia who ate nothing but raw meat. He had eruptions all over his body from the diet, but still persisted in it.


Braunda, Byron, Berwyn, and Bruce. The Physical Culture Family (as the brood invariably was referred to in Macfadden’s publications) not only had to suffer the embarrassment of their picturesque names, they had to bellow for an hour each day and exercise ad nauseum.

Mrs. Macfadden was pregnant so often, and in such discomfort, that she dedicated her autobiography ”… particularly to those merciful doctors ever ready to reduce the pain of childbirth.” She believed, moreover, that her husband caused both the miscarriage of yet another child, by forcing her into strenuous exercise while pregnant, and the death of Byron. Macfadden had reacted to a convulsion, she charged, by plunging the one-year-old into a hot bath; naturally, calling a doctor would have been out of the question.

Whatever the real causefeatured such titles as “A Wife Who Awoke in Time,” “My Battle With John Barleycorn,” “An Ex-Convict’s Climb to Millions,” and “How I Learned to Hate My Parents.” Basically, the True Story formula consisted of first-person accounts, written in an untutored but clear style, of sin and redemption. The sin, usually carnal, was described in some detail; but the actual consummation nearly always seemed to take place between paragraphs, and it was invariably dressed up in a moral lesson. One typical narrator warned, “Let nobody be stirred up by the glamor of a certain part of my experience to attempt a similar adventure. What I went through of mental anguish can be neither described nor imagined. ”

Moreover, none of the protagonists were really evil; they were usually lower-class


directly associated with the children's frequency of use of general practitioners. Depression and anxiety in the mothers, measured with standardised instruments, were not associated with use by the children nor was a mother's level of social support. The results point to the importance of family relationships and illness behaviour in the family when considering use of general practitioners and the importance of using standardised measuring instruments and multivariate designs when studying such complex behaviours as the use of health care.The present invention relates to optical amplification apparatus for use in optical transmission systems and so on.
As a reduction in cost has been demanded for optical transmission systems, a wavelength-multiplex optical transmission has been taken into consideration for transmitting signal light at one or more mutually different wavelengths on a single transmission fiber. It is also thought that an amplifier suitable for use in such wavelength-multiplex optical transmission is an optical amplification apparatus which has a wide amplification wave band and is capable of achieving the amplification with less noise.
It is known, however, that a rare metal added optical fiber and a semiconductor optical amplifier constituting the above-mentioned optical amplification apparatus have a gain dependency so that optical outputs and gains at respective wavelengths present deviations due to

Dynamo Kiev have been ordered to close part of their stadium for next month's Europa League quarter-final after racist behaviour by fans towards Everton players.

The Ukrainian side has also been fined 15,000 euros (£10,950) by UEFA for the setting off of fireworks and for insufficient organisation.

The racist behaviour took place during the 5-2 second-leg win over Everton on March 19.

UEFA has ordered partial closure of the NSK Olimpiyskiy stadium for the first leg of the quarter-final against Fiorentina, to be played in Kiev on April 16.

A UEFA statement read: "The CEDB (UEFA Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body) has ordered the partial closure of the NSK Olimpiyskiy stadium during the next UEFA competition match which FC Dynamo Kyiv would play asHello everyone! I started this scene a couple months ago but never finished it and then 2 days ago I opened up the project and decided to work on it. I am very happy that I did! Here is my result. I don’t want to take credit for the lamp because I did not create it. It was from the Architecture Academy models and it just fit perfectly in my scene so I had to use it. Everything else you can see in the scene was modeled and textured by me.

the task of jelling everything together.

Best case: Boston’s building blocks begin to appear more defined as the Celtics finish the season with their best record since the Big Three were in town.

Worst case: The veteran reinforcements stunt the growth of the Celtics’ young bigs and the right trade never comes along for Danny Ainge, leading to a year in limbo before next summer’s big spending spree.

3. New York Knicks

2014-15 results: 17–65 | Did not make playoffs

Outlook: Optimism was as scarce in Madison Square Garden last season as NBA talent, but that’s about to change with the return of Carmelo Anthony and the addition of some solid role players. Robin Lopez will man the middle and clean the glass, Arron Afflalo gives Carmelo someone to kick tocase: How dark do you want to get? Carmelo gets hurt and the free-agent signings make no sense without him? Porzingis looks like Tskitishvili 2.0? Matt Barnes kills Derek Fisher? Phil Jackson retreats to Montana? With the Knicks, “worst-case scenario” knows no bounds.

• Knicks’ chances of making the playoffs not as far off as you think

4. Brooklyn Nets

2014-15 results: 38–44 | Lost in first round

Outlook: The Nets will be decent. Lionel Hollins is a proven bench man and the trio of Brook Lopez, Joe Johnson and Thaddeus Young affords Brooklyn of some semblance respectability. Those are literally the two nicest things I can say about the team. When you take the kiddie gloves off, the future is rather bleak for Brooklyn. No team is caught between the present


and future worse than the Nets. They boast a veteran-laden roster, but have no chance of competing for a title. The signings of players like Andrea Bargnani, Dahntay Jones and Wayne Ellington would suggest this team is on the cusp of something, but Brooklyn’s front-office moves have doomed this team’s future. Without draft picks or cap space, the Nets can’t look down the road to brighter days. Instead, they’re forced to deal with the present, as unappealing as it might be. Unfortunately for the Nets, they are equally unlikely to be playoff participants or high-lottery finishers, meaning another year of mediocrity is on the horizon.

Best case: The Nets turn into a poor man’s version of the Heat, boasting a strong starting five and sneaking into the playoffs thanksbecause she was unemployed. Second, we note that the main reason articulated by defense counsel for striking R.B. was her demeanor. This Court has recognized that demeanor, indicating such things as hostility or inattentiveness, is a race-neutral reason for a peremptory strike. Jelks v. Caputo, 607 So.2d 177 (Ala.1992). Bell v. Lowery, 619 So.2d 1380 (Ala.1993). That reason has been explained as follows:
"It is well to note that feelings are not always expressed in words, and, indeed, may be clearly manifested by gestures and facial expressions. A grimace or stare may express hostility or displeasure quite as clearly as words shouted across a room."
Reynolds v. Benefield, 931 F.2d 506, 512 (8th Cir.1991). The trial court's ruling with respect to the strike of R.B. was not clear error.

Bandpass filter is a necessary component for wireless communication products, and its main function is to separate frequencies. In other words, the bandpass filter can let a signal within a certain specific frequency band pass and block any signal other than those within the specific frequency band. As the wireless communication market booms, the requirement of communication quality becomes increasingly higher, and signal receivers require a wideband and high-efficiency bandpass filter to process the received high-frequency signal. The high-efficiency bandpass filter not only filters unnecessary interference signals, but also provides a wideband utility rate and good receiving efficiency to the high frequency signals.
As the bandwidth becomes wider and wider, data transfer rate increases significantly, so that researches and applications related to wireless transmission at a band near 60states to clinch the nomination found that 40 percent of Bernie Sanders supporters said that they would not vote for Hillary as noted here.

from Reykjavík is the tourism sector.

Iceland has turned to tourism in a big way since the financial crash of 2008.

This has clearly brought economic dividends.

To tempt the tourists shop shelves downtown and at the airport were well-stocked with a great deal of high-quality local woollen wear plus other premium local brands (alcohol, for example).

To be honest, though, the sheer number of other tourists rather spoils the whole experience of my own time there as a tourist (yes, I do get the irony).

When I was their, the airport was splitting at the seams.

If you have 1,300,000 tourists a year visiting a country with a population less than a quarter of that, there’s a linguistic price to be paid.

In the evenings the centre of town was busy with tourists mostlyThat is only one of several higher and further education institutions in the country offering a full spectrum of subjects through the medium of Icelandic.

A triumph of survival and imagination and a challenge to the Welsh

Iceland has its problems. It’s not a paradise. Yet from a linguistic perspective, it’s a great success story.

Icelanders have created and sustain a whole society through their language. Despite obvious threats (out-of-control mass tourism; global Anglo-American culture and the internet) the rich Icelandic language continues strongly as a community language in Iceland.

It’s a triumph of survival, stubbornness and also of imagination.

There are limits to the comparisons that can be drawn between a majority language with an isolated geography on its side and minoritised language communities struggling to survive population shifts and cultural colonisation.

        Daily tous les jours

Daily tous les jours is a Canadian art and design studio based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It specializes in participative public art installations. Its best known project is 21 Balançoires (the Musical Swings).

History
Daily tous les jours was founded by Mouna Andraos and Melissa Mongiat.

Daily tous les jours' installation 21 Balançoires, originally located in Montreal's Promenade des Artistes in the Quartier des Spectacles, was developed in 2011 with the help off behavioural scientist Luc-Alain Giraldeau and musician Radwan Ghazi Moumneh. Visitors work together to elicit musical patterns and melodies.  The piece has been described by Oprah Winfrey as a "living piece of art".. The exhibit was set up in Oklahoma City in 2019.

In 2012 the pair developed an interactive art installation, Operette, which allowed members


intermediate plate is approximately the width of the housing, thus preventing solid material from falling down at the sides of the upper run of the conveyor.
The opening in the intermediate plate is e.g. adjustable perpendicularly to the running direction of the conveyor, being approximately 30-70% of the total width of the intermediate plate. In most cases, when a solid material flow has to be divided into two equal portions, the width of the opening will be about 50% of the total width of the intermediate plate. The width of the opening may, however, depend on e.g. location of solid material inlet(s) and the location of the opening in the intermediate plate.
The opening may be arranged at either side of the intermediate plate, or two openings may be provided--oneI have been able to determine, there are only three other writings penned by Kant himself that give similar lists of degrees.4 Unfortunately, none of these attribute the degrees with a genus, and these lists also differ from each other in what are counted as degrees. In students' notes of Kant's lectures on logic, we find similar but nevertheless varying lists of degrees. There are at least six different descriptions of what the degrees are of: 1) Erkenntnis,5 2) "human Erkenntnis",6 3) "our Erkenntnis",7 4) "concepts",8 5) "distinctness",9 and 6) different manners of representing things.10 Thus, explicit textual evidence concerning the genus of the degrees is inconclusive. Nevertheless, Kant's well-known "Stufenleiter" gives us a hint for explaining Jäsche's choice to characterize the degrees as being of Erkenntnis.11 According

Mulch California - Sustainable Clothing

Mulch California was born in 2014 as San Clemente’s first anti-fast fashion shop.

The brainchild of brothers Mehr Alejandro and Philippe Zarif, Mulch California has a strong focus on quality, responsibility, sustainability and ethics that is woven into every aspect of their company.

Fashion is a multi-trillion dollar industry, making it one of the most profitable industries in the world while simultaneously being one of the most destructive and inhumane. Driven by short-term profits and trends, the majority of the fashion industry employs low-wage workers and oftentimes provides them with cruel and immoral working conditions. Manufacturing processes are quick, crude and harmful to the planet. While the majority of fashion companies are focused on making the biggest bang for their buck, Mulch California is focused onit stand to reason that it was time for us to return to the old ways and take a tougher line with the project's opponents?

Where was Notley?

Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall mused that Quebec should return its equalization payments if it wasn't willing to accept new pipelines. (CBC )

Wildrose leader Brian Jean thought so, declaring through Twitter that "You can't dump raw sewage, accept foreign tankers, benefit from equalization and then reject our pipelines."

Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall also got on board, musing that Quebec should return their transfer payments if they weren't willing to accept a pipeline.

But where was Notley, our Premier, in this battle?

Why was she so silent — expressing only disappointment with Coderre's remarks? Why would she not also get mad? Why would she not also "Stand


A highly pathogenic simian/human immunodeficiency virus with genetic changes in cynomolgus monkey.
A highly pathogenic simian/human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV), designated C2/1, was obtained by serum passages in cynomolgus monkeys of p-SHIV, an SHIV strain that contains the env gene of pathogenic human immunodeficiency virus type 1 89.6. CD4+ lymphocyte depletion was induced within 1 week of the SHIV-C2/1 infection in peripheral blood as well as in various lymphoid organs in all the animals tested, with symptoms of diarrhoea and no increase in body weight, followed by intense viraemia. Serum antibody against Env protein was detected from 4 weeks after the virus infection, while the anti-Gag antibody response was absent in the SHIV-C2/1-infected animals. In contrast, both anti-Gag and anti-Env antibody responses were present in animals infected with p-SHIV ora draft, or battle some Commander with friends. As time passed the rhythm of my life changed.

As we were battling, I started thinking about tweaking the design for multiplayer. My first instinct was to âhideâ the multiplayer design inside the 1v1 design. This would give me the ability to play in different situations, and not incur the cost of building a multiplayer Battle Box. I remembered an angel card that caught my eye when I was designing my initial list, it perfectly hides the multiplayer design without impacting the 1v1 design; Herald of the Host.

Not only do I love the elegance and scalability of the Myriad mechanic, but Herald of the Host also fits the power level of my box. One of the Battle Box design tenants is to build with a flat power level. This is to help reward strong technical play, ratherBox will naturally be cheaper because you don't have to invest as heavily in the mana base. For a Cube, you typical want to include Shock Lands and even Revised Dual Lands. In Battle Box your mana base is made up of primarily Guild Gates and maybe a few Mana Confluence, we'll get to that later. It faster to setup â My lifestyle doesn't afford me much extra time. If I have time for Magic, it might be a couple of hours on the weekend. I want to maximize that time.

"It is an extremely tough law to enforce," said Maj. Todd Noblitt of the Bartholomew County Sheriff's Department, which he said has issued few, if any, texting-and-driving tickets. "There is absolutely no way a police officer can know what they (drivers) are doing."

Indiana State Police Sgt. Noel Houze estimated that fewer than 400 motorists were ticketed for illegal texting in the first two years of the law, even though state police in 2010 linked more than 1,000 car crashes to cellphone use. Four of those crashes involved fatalities.

Mr. Randolph said he's not worried about committing to a specific position or an on-floor identity just yet, but wants to become a traditional center or power forward as he continues to bulk up — all while maintaining his current explosiveness in a bigger body, much like new Knick Amar'e Stoudemire, he said.

Mr. Randolph said he will move between small forward, power forward and center this season, with some guard play in the mix. Mr. D'Antoni said that Mr. Randolph's job is to complement Mr. Stoudemire, who will start at power forward

Is there some NLP library out there that does this for me? If not, what would be the best way to go about this?

A:

As far as I understand your problem, I think that computing semantic similarity measure is the solution is what you are looking for. Semantic similarity is a scalar value reporting distance between words (or other linguistic units) based on the likeness of their meaning (you could actually call it relevance). E.g. for words harassment and bullying such value would be high, while for words harassment and programming it would be low.
There are different ways to compute semantic similarity. One of the simplest ones based on distance in WordNet graph structure. It is implemented in NLTK. Some toy examples could

WOW!!! That was most definitely worth the wait! This book was such an emotional rollercoaster and I loved every single damn page 😊

Story

I thought the story had great flow and was written really well. Feyre spent just the right amount of time at the spring court, I was a bit worried she was going to be there for ages. I loved how BA Feyre was in this book.

I Don’t really want to write too much about what happens but the parts that I really loved were:

Feyre taking apart the Spring Court from the inside…. So satisfying. Ianthe finally got what was coming to her.

The Feysand reunion was epic I lovedI came to the end because yes the finally the wait was over but now so is story… I’m trying console myself with the fact that there will be more books but I just want more Feyre and Rhys!!

So yeah if you loved the first two books that you will like this one. I just want to say that there are a lot of people comparing this to ACOMAF and saying it’s not as good, but I have to say that the focus for each book is totally different so in my opinion comparing them is a moot point.


A Tesla Model 3 recently made an appearance in a drag strip meet at the SDCCU Stadium in San Diego, CA, where it attracted a lot of attention due to its performance in multiple 1/8-mile drag races. The Model 3, which is suspected to be a Performance model, made a splash at the event, beating several souped-up vehicles in the process.

A video of the rather mysterious blue Tesla Model 3 was shared on YouTube’s auto-themed 7zerex channel. The channel noted that the Model 3’s specific trim was not announced to spectators during the RaceLegal.com-organized drag racing meet, but its speed, as well as the way it decimated its competitors, appear to suggest that it was the Performance version.

The vehicle in the video does feature several components that are       = syscall.Errno(0x72)

Immuno-electron-microscopic study of the prolactin cells in the pituitary gland of male Wistar rats during aging.
Prolactin cells were identified by means of immunocytochemistry with protein-A gold as a marker on ultrathin sections of the pituitary gland of young (3-4 months), middle-aged (16-19 months), and aged (26-30 months) male Wistar rats. Point-counting volumetry revealed that the prolactin (PRL) cell-volume density in middle-aged rats was significantly increased in comparison to the volume densities in young and aged rats. Within the PRL-cell population, four types of PRL cells were distinguished on the basis of the shape and size of their secretory granules. During aging, dramatic changes occurred in the relative volumes of the four cell types. The volume percentage of cells with round granules (type I, granule diameter 150-250 nm, andis the units digit of 3552?

first sudo pip uninstall scrapy then reinstall with the -H sudo flag sudo -H pip install scrapy this will make it such that your command line can detect the scrapy installation.

A:

This also does not answer the question why is scrapy command line tool not available, but if scrapy is importable as you comment, you can use:
$ python -m scrapy.cmdline version -v
$ python -m scrapy.cmdline shell <url>

scrapy is an alias to this in fact, as specified in Scrapy's setup.py entry_points section, and should have been setup by pip install.

This doesn't answer the question of what's wrong with the pip install, but to anyone with a working scrapy package but non-functional commandline command, you can create a script to run scrapy command line tool for you:

Local realism imposes constraints on statistical correlations of measurements on multiparticle systems. They are in the form of Bell-type inequalities [@bell; @chsh; @ghz; @mermin; @ardehali; @belinskii; @PERESBELL; @svozil]. In a realistic theory the measurement results are determinedwe obtain a local realistic model of a certain correlation function.

However, one should check whether this construction indeed produces the model for the correlation function for the set of settings that enter inequality (\[thebellineq\]), that is for $E(k_1,...,k_N)$. For simplicity take $N=2$. One can build a “vector" $(E(1,1),E(1,2), E(2,1),E(2,2))$ out of the values of the correlation function. The expansion coefficients of this “vector" in terms of the four orthogonal basis vectors $(1,s_1,s_2, s_1s_2)$ (recall, that $s_1,s_2 \in \{-1,1\}$) are equal to the expressions within the moduli entering inequality (\[thebellineq\]). By the construction shown above the local realistic model for $N=2$ gives the following “vector" $$\begin{aligned}
\lefteqn{(E_{LR}(1,1),E_{LR}(1,2), E_{LR}(2,1),E_{LR}(2,2)) }
\\ & \hspace{0.5cm} &= \frac{1}{4} \sum_{s_1,s_2} \big[\sum_{k_1,k_2}
s^{k_1-1}_1 s^{k_2-1}_2 E({k_1},{k_2})\big] (1,s_1,s_2, s_1s_2).
\nonumber\end{aligned}$$ Since the vector built out of the correlation function values and


|T_{x_1...x_N}| \leq 1. \label{mod}$$

Let us give a geometric interpretation of (\[mod\]). Suppose one replaces the components of the correlation tensor $T_{x_1...x_N}$ by their moduli $|T_{x_1...x_N}|$, and builds of such moduli a new tensor $\hat{T}^{mod}$. Suppose moreover one transforms this modified tensor into a new set of local coordinate systems, each of which is obtained from the old one by a rotation within the plane spanned by axes 1 and 2 of the initial coordinates. If this new tensor satisfies constraint (\[mod\]) for an arbitrary choice of the initial set of local coordinate systems, then, and only then, a local realistic description of correlation function is possible, in the case of [*any*]{} standard Bell experiment.

In other words, $T^{mod}_{c_1...c_N}$ is a component of $T^{mod}$ along directions defined by the unitanalyzed for its influence, together with the fermion-boson interplay, on the formation and properties of the SC state, in particular, the non-monotonous dependence of the SC order parameter on the doping level.

The following consideration starts in section \[gf\] from definition of the basic Green functions, specific for the analysis of different types of elementary excitations in a disordered crystalline system. Section \[mod\] explains the choice of effective Hamiltonians for spin and charge degrees of freedom, including their perturbations due to dopants. Then, we find the excitation spectra in this system, with a special emphasis on the effects of spin dynamics on charge dynamics, either in the initial state or under finite doping. In the latter case, the important doping effects for decay of long range spin order and for metallization


\hat g_\bk$, with its non-zero elements: $$\lGF \b_{j,\bk}|\b_{j,\bk}^\dagger\rGF = \frac 1{\o - \o_{j,\bk}}\,,\qquad \lGF \b_{j,\bk}^\dagger|\b_{j,\bk}\rGF = -\frac1{\o + \o_{j,\bk}}.$$ Then, using the equation  provides a simple analytic approximation for the relevant integrals (also called the locator functions) in the low-energy range: g\_j(ø) = N\^[-1]{}\_1[ø- ø\_[j,]{}]{} -1J (1 + ø[2J]{}), and hence the low-energy approximation for DOS: (ø) ø[4J\^2]{}.

The AFM order stability is controlled by the spectrum gaps $\o_\pm$, limiting thermal occupation of excited states over the fully ordered ground state. Eventually, at reaching the Néel temperature $T_{\text{N}}$, the mean sublattice magnetization, as, e.g., $$s = \langle s_{\bn_1}^z\rangle = \frac 12  -  \frac1N\sum_\bk \langle   b_{1,\bk}^\dagger b_{1,\bk}\rangle\,,$$ should vanish. This average is expressed with the use of the spectral theorem, equation , and the unitary transformation, equation ,(in the function of temperature and doping) from the above considered Bose-type GFs. Otherwise, the “anomalous” averages are due to delocalized pairs of electrons with opposite spins and momenta and they follow from both parts in equation  (to be detailed later).

Now, we compose the effective two-fermion Hamiltonian for normal electrons: $H_\text{n} = H_{\text{hop}} + H_\text{n}^{(2)}$, involving the “normally” averaged spin exchange part: H\_\^[(2)]{} = J \_(a\_[1,,]{}\^a\_[1,,]{} + a\_[2,,]{}\^a\_[2,,]{} - a\_[1,,]{}\^a\_[1,,]{} - a\_[2,,]{}\^a\_[2,,]{}), which can be seen as a spin-Hubbard repulsion, favouring an electron with the given spin to occupy the sites from its proper sublattice (1 for $\ua$ and 2 for $\da$).

Similarly to the above boson case, we construct fermion 4-spinors in sublattice/spin indices: $a_\bk^\dagger = (a_{1,\ua,\bk}^\dagger,a_{2,\ua,\bk}^\dagger,
a_{2,\da,\bk}^\dagger,a_{1,\da,\bk}^\dagger)$, and transform them into such spinors in mode/spin indices: $\a_\bk^\dagger =


= J$ at the X-points, $\bk = (0,\pm\piup)$, or Y-points, $\bk = (\pm\piup,0)$. This most important spin-exchange effect appears under the condition $J \geqslant 2t'$, realistic for strong AFM coupling $J$ in cuprates. In the absence of doping, it defines the system insulating state with fully occupied majority bands and empty minority bands, the Fermi energy (the chemical potential at $T = 0$) being located at the gap middle point: $\m = 2t'$. In this Fermi energy reference, the subband edges are written as: $\e_{-,\text{min}} = J - 2t' = -\e_{+,\text{max}}$. More details of this spectrum are seen from its DOS function: () = 1[N]{} \_[j,,]{} \_[j,,]{}|\^\_[j,,]{}= 2[N]{} \_[j,]{} (- \_[j,]{}), where the corresponding integration can be simplified, passing from the variables $k_x$ and $k_z$ to $u =expansion of equation  within its $\sim q^2$ term: f\_+() 1[4t’]{} , and this readily defines the position of localized in-gap level: \_ = \_[+,]{} + 4t’\^[-4t’/V\_c]{}, whose separation from the band edge $\e_{+,\text{max}}$ occurs sizable compared to the band gap. Thus, choosing the perturbation parameter $V_c = 0.22$ eV and the previous parameters of the host system, we obtain this separation $\e_{\text{loc}} - \e_{+,\text{max}} \approx 36$ meV, nearly half of the gap, $\e_{-,\text{min}} - \e_{+,\text{max}}
= 70$ meV.

At finite dopant concentration $c$, the renormalized dispersion equation for the majority subband (in T-matrix approximation): - \_[+,]{} - c T\_+() = 0, describes a slightly modified main band and also a new impurity subband that arose near $\e_{\text{loc}}$, as seen in their modified DOS: $\tilde\r(\e) = \r_+[\e - c\Re
T_+(\e)]$ presented


is a progressive deformation of the overall spectrum with doping, as seen in some compression of the upper part of the majority subband and in extension of the gap between the majority and minority subbands in figure \[fig6\] compared to figure \[fig3\].

![Doping dependence of impurity subband weight from equations , , and the mobile carriers weight $w_{\text{met}}$, compared to the total weight $c$ of the doped carriers.](Fig8.eps "fig:"){width="8cm"}\

Now, we are in a position to discuss the onset and properties of SC state in the doped perovskite system with the above defined normal state properties.

Superconductivity
=================

As it was already referred, the unusual features of SC state in doped perovskite compounds are mainly treated in literature within different scenarios of strongly correlated electrons in a uniform medium, also incorporating the doping effects into thislimitation of the ranges for SC pairing on carrier states above and below the Fermi level (an analog to the classical BCS shell), whose width is determined by the mobility edge in the normal spectrum combined with the common decay range of the SC coupling function;

- the $d$-wave symmetry of the resulting SC order parameter directly related to the local symmetry of two AFM sublattices, its non-monotonous dependence on the doping level, and an anomalously low superfluid density of the SC condensate.

Other physical properties of the proposed model, including its behavior at finite temperatures, will constitute the topic of further studies.

Commission's use of figures other than those
actually computed from a utility's current balance sheet to determine the cost of capital.  In Public
Utility Commission v. GTE-SW, although the record contained the actual costs of debt and equity,
the Commission had applied a weighted cost so as to estimate a rate that would be sufficient for
the utility to attract new capital.  See GTE-SW, 833 S.W.2d at 157.  The hypothetical cost of capital
was employed because the actual cost of capital would not obtain the "reasonable return" required
by statute.  See id. at 158.  This Court held that such a method was neither required nor prohibited
by statute or regulation, and that the Commission did not abuse its discretion.  See id.  We again
conclude that the Commission is not prohibitedallow their limited means of investigation reach any definite conclusion.

William Podington on the other hand had arrived in New Delhi according to a contract signed in the London offices of the same firm, upon specific invitation by their representative at Oxford, boarding ship the week after his very much talked-about First. It is indeed rare that any candidate's viva voce turns rather into an exercise of flattery by the appointed examiners, but few recalled another instance at Oxford where the fellows actually stood and applauded.

On the strength of this standing ovation, barely a minute in actual duration yet coming at such particularly convenient a moment in time -- for other youths had been indeed applauded for longer, and that same year, or month, and even by more people,


perhaps the better testament of mankind's perversity to notice that there's more than two names included -- though it is equally fair to mention that such variance is in the early, rather than latter section of the set of eight.

"I tell you, William," said Thomas Buller to his friend Mr. Podington, "I am truly sorry about it, but I cannot arrange for it this year. Now, as to my invitation -- that is very different."

"Of course it is different," was the reply, "but I am obliged to say, as I said before, that I really cannot accept it."

Remarks similar to these had been made by the two friends at least once a year for some four or five years, since their return. The reason for this avoidance ofden than pinned, promenade stick in hand, by a tired old milkman's nag coming apace from the other way upon a narrow street. To one or more horses driven by a coachman of years and experience he did not always object, especially if he did not have to see them ; but to a horse driven by Podington, who had much experience and knowledge regarding mercantile affairs, but was merely an amateur horseman, he most decidedly and strongly objected. Yet he would never have even faintly hinted at his judgement in the matter, lest in hurting his friend's feelings he'd deadly wound himself ; and therefore it was that he had not yet visited the beautiful upland country residence of Mr. Podington.

At last this state of things grew


to escape him, chief of all because in no conceivable case would Buller have done anything besides getting himself drowned trying (and succeeding) to rescue his flailing, hysterical friend from his own idiotic helplessness. In truth the only likely tragic outcome was a very sorry Podington upon the shore, womanly weeping above a stretched-out Buller, thoroughly drowned for absolutely no good reason. But it was time to conquer all this; it was indeed growing ridiculous. Buller had been sailing more years than they knew each other, and never in his life had he been upset.

"Yes," said he; "I must do it. I will do it. I will make myself ready any time you name."

Mr. Buller rose and stretched out his hand.

"Good!" said he; and then, a devilish winkdid not know, but it defensibly assumed his driver would, and so for faith, and reason, and good safety, responded with a sudden and forcible start backward, under the circumstances the only wrong move available because now not only the hind wheels of the light wagon, but the fore wheels and the poor horse's own own hind legs went into the water. As the bank at this spot sloped steeply, the wagon continued to go backward, despite the efforts of the agitated horse to find a footing on the crumbling edge of the bank.

"Whoa!" cried Mr. Buller.

"Pull! Pull!" exclaimed Mr. Podington, applying his whip upon the plunging beast.

But neither exclamations nor castigations included room for any possible effect. The original bed of the stream ran close to the


his friend was perhaps a little ways off from his finest, sharpest shape and thereby judged that he must now step up to such helm as could be had and take charge of the vessel such as it found itself. He stood up and gazed about him.

"Put her across stream!" he shouted; "she can't make headway against this current. Head her to that clump of trees on the other side; the bank is lower there, and we can beach her. Move a little the other way, we must trim boat. Now then, pull on your starboard rein."

In the faint sound of rusting metal the wordless mechanism previously known as Mr. Podington mechanically obeyed, and the horse slightly changed his direction.

"You see," said Buller, "it won't do to sailwith a floating wagon in tow, he had stood for a few moments, his head and neck well above water, his back barely visible beneath the surface, drawing its breath. Having recovered somewhat, he now thought it was time to move on.

At the first step of the horse Mr. Podington began to totter like something about to give under a lot of steam pressure. Instinctively he clutched Buller.

"Sit down!" cried the latter, "or you'll have us both overboard." There was no helping it ; down sat Mr. Podington in the embracing blue, weeping quietly a very short distance, directly into the waterline above the second button of his vest -- likely the shortest trip any tears ever had to travel in this world.

"Ough!" said he after a time.


by the big cork life-preserver tied under his arms. The motion of the boat was so violent and erratic that he was obliged to hold on to the mast with one arm, and to try to loosen the knot with the other ; but there was a great strain on the rope, and he could do nothing with one hand.

"Cut it! Cut it!" cried Mr. Buller.

Mr. Podington shuffled through his pockets for a while, in a complicated dance with the life preserver apparently bent on blocking all access. Eventually he produced a tiny folding knife, which he nearly lost out of his hand twice while trying to get open with only one hand ; at length he attempted to apply the blade upon the taut tow-line, but ifin a foundered road-wagon."

The man looked at him fixedly for a second.

"Was you ever caught in quick-sand with your balloon?" he asked.

"Not yet," replied Mr. Buller.

It required ten days to put Mr. Buller's sailboat into proper condition, and for ten days Mr. Podington stayed with his friend, his wife, and his wife. He enjoyed his visit very much. They strolled on the beach, they took long walks in the back country, they fished from the end of a pier, they smoked, they talked, they did it all and they were happy, and content.

"Thomas," said Mr. Podington, on the last evening of his stay, "I have enjoyed myself very much since I have been down here, and now, Thomas, if I were to come down again next summer, would


road vehicles having semi-autonomous driving capabilities the driving experience becomes unpredictable. As the transitioning time from semi-autonomous to manual modes of driving is very short, often less than 1 second, a driver of the vehicle may be required to continuously monitor the system closely at all times, almost requiring the same mental effort from the driver as when driving manually, in order to be able to take over the task of driving if required.
In view of the above, there is a need for improving the predictability of transition requirements, to and from automated autonomous driving aid control systems.Monday, August 29, 2016

DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson

The Department of Justice recently announced that it would stop using private contractors for prisons. Will the federal government follow suit with respect to immigrant detention?

The Department of Homeland Security today issued an important "Statement by Secretary Jeh C. Johnson on Establishing a Review Of Privatized Immigration Detention." It states in full that

"On August 18, the Department of Justice announced that the Bureau of Prisons will reduce and ultimately end its use of private prisons. On Friday, I directed our Homeland Security Advisory Council, chaired by Judge William Webster, to evaluate whether the immigration detention operations conducted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement should move in the same direction. Specifically, I have asked that Judge Webster establish a Subcommittee of the Council to


So, today will be a bit of a departure from our regularly scheduled programming. Normally I try to be educational, to impart some sort of insight or wisdom into the world of esports. Instead, I just kinda want to vent a frustration today.

Heroes is easily my favorite team-based esport at this point. The intricacies of draft and map preparation, emphasis on teamwork, and reduced game-length make it a really great spectator experience in almost every aspect. The exception, for me, is the draft lobby. I despise the current HOTS draft screen.

the inferred signal by blending the intensities at different wavelengths. This phenomenon is problematic for (solar) spectral lines, since the shape of a line encodes essential information about a range of heights in the solar atmosphere. However, some instruments use a lower spectral resolution (broader spectral transmission profile) to increase instrument throughput and reduce integration times. Such a broad spectral point-spread function (sPSF) results fundamentally in a multiplexed sampling of the line profile, with the information from a given portion of the original spectral profile sampled multiple times at various positions in the sPSF (i.e. with varying relative attenuation) as the transmission function is tuned through the line. This means that it should be possible to recover much of the underlying spectral information from this linear combination ofthen recreate the signal of interest from the latent space (decoder). The architecture of the network consists of three convolutional layers, followed by three symmetric upsampling (“deconvolutional”) layers, followed by two dense layers with dimensions of the output data. The three consecutive convolutional layers (and their corresponding upscaling layers) have \[5, 10, 20\] filters and used a three-pixel kernel. Rectified Linear unit (RELU) activation function was used for all layers with the exception of the last one where we have used a linear activation function[@he2016deep]. Furthermore, in Section \[sec:deconvolve\_SPSF\] we add the input layer to the last dense layer of the network to improve the performance of the network. This is due to the fact that in this architecture, the network has to estimate only the corrections to the


$1.5 \times 10^{-4}$.

The performance of the CNN was tested on a different raster (data not seen by the network previously) from FISS of the same region of the Sun acquired *5* minutes after the scan used for training. The line core intensity value and position was determined as the minimum of a parabola fitted to the 7 points around the pixel position with the lowest intensity. The core width of the line profile was measured (following ) as the bisector width at the intensity equal to half the difference between intensity of the line core and the intensity at a fixed offset of 0.4 [Å]{} from the wavelength position of the line core.

The algorithm achieved 0.76 % precision photometry of the line core intensity and 2.5 % precision retrievingprofiles. The bottom left of Figure \[fig:multiplexing\] shows the scatter of the derived line core intensity of the multiplexed line versus the original line core intensity. We achieve a RMS of the retrieved line core intensity of about 2% for this numerical setup. This is about three times worse than the previous experiment with FISS data in Section \[subsec:deconvolve\_FISS\]. Our result is close to the precision obtained by Asensio Ramos (2010) [@2010AN....331..652A] where the author uses a single FP etalon with a prefilter.

To explain the lower precision of this multipeaked-multiplexing deconvolution approach compared to the deconvolution of the wide sPSF in Section \[sec:deconvolve\_SPSF\], we evaluate the dimensionality of the data. The dimensionality quantifies how much information is contained in the observations and can be used to evaluate the losses due to the


a lower precision compared to the results those for for a single, broad sPSF. This approach, evaluating spectral dimensionality, could be used in future design studies of instruments as a way toward building more efficient instruments, optimizing throughput and preservation of spectral information. Further work is needed to connect the dimensionality analysis (and resulting choice of instrumental sPSF) with the accuracy and precision of the retrieval of physical information from the spectral profiles via the optimal choice of parameters for the FP system.

![*Top left*: The spectral transmission profile is ( scaled by 9 for best representation) applied to the spectral profiles overlaid over the average Ca II 8542 [Å]{} line. *Top right*: Sample spectral profile from the multiplexing (), the retrieved spectral profile () and the original spectral profileof spectra, with further improvements possible if the deconvolution is performed on batches of data on a GPU. With the next generation of solar instruments (such as the VTF at the DKIST), which will produce terabytes of spectral data per day, the speed of deconvolutional techniques will become increasingly important.

The technique was demonstrated here only for non-polarized spectroscopic measurements, but full spectropolarimetric measurements (including also the spectral dependence of the circularly and linearly polarized components of the signal) are a key aspect of observational solar science. There is no conceptual reason why this method could not be extended to the measurement of the Stokes profiles, given suitable training sets. However, since the polarized components of the signal tend to be just a small fraction of the overall signal

Why does Cancun have a lower profile than Copenhagen?

Copenhagen was a disaster in more ways than one. Expectations were high and failure inevitable. Since then there have been efforts by governments and the UN to play down the potential outcome of Cancun.

What are the major stumbling blocks?

"If they fail, there will be ramifications beyond these talks that could impact the future of international law."

Dr. Rosalind Reeve at the Cancun Climate Summit

One major stumbling block is the need for all countries to reach consensus on decisions in the climate change convention. This means that just one country can block progress. Currently, economic and development priorities and sovereignty concerns take precedence over the imperative to tackle climate


will diminish political will and delay concerted action to tackle the biggest issue of our time.

What would be the final text for the Summit if you wrote it yourself?

The objective is a fair, ambitious and binding agreement with the aim of keeping global temperature rise well below 1.5 degrees C above pre-industrial levels.

To reach that goal we need legally binding commitments for all high emitting countries with the aim of returning greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere to 350ppm, and recognising different capabilities, capacities and responsibilities.

I would list these comitments as follows:

from them, or from an examination of the patient.

*800 "This is not to say that the patient enjoys an absolute right, but rather that he possesses a limited right against such disclosure, subject to exceptions prompted by the supervening interest of society. We conclude, therefore, that ordinarily a physician receives information relating to a patient's health in a confidential capacity and should not disclose such information without the patient's consent, except where the public interest or the private interest of the patient so demands."
This right of non-disclosure was acknowledged even though New Jersey has no statute creating a testimonial privilege, nor does the medical licensing statute proscribe against the betrayal of confidential information. (Cf. N.J.Stat. Anno. 45:9-16 (1963)). As the court stated:
"We have, then, no expressed public policy(1948); Batty v. Arizona State Dental Board, 57 Ariz. 239, 112 P.2d 870 (1941); Foster v. Brady, 198 Wash. 13, 86 P.2d 760 (1939); Davis *803 v. Rodman, 147 Ark. 385, 227 S.W. 612 (1921); Ulbrand v. Bennett, 83 Or. 557, 163 P. 445 (1917); Alexander v. Knight, supra; Allison v. Blewett, 348 S.W. 2d 182 (Tex.Civ.App.1961); Moore v. Webb, 345 S.W.2d 239 (Mo.App.1961); Cf. also, 42 Ohio Jur.2d, Physicians and Surgeons, § 106 (1960).
If the analogy expressed in the Court's earlier opinion (comparing the relationship of physician and patient to that of trustee and principal and comparing the confidences exchanged between doctor and patient to a trust res) is offensive to the defendant, it comes as no surprise to the medical profession. The Code of Medical Ethics


in the rupture of the contractual relationship between the plaintiff and Dr. Ling, it must be shown that that conduct was in response to an immediate danger to an existing economic interest of its own.
The evidence, uncontroverted thus far, indicates that Dr. Ling made the first contact between himself and the defendant when giving written notice (as required under the contract of insurance) of a potential malpractice claim against him by the plaintiff. The defendant contends that only then did it advise its assured to discontinue further treatment.
This brings into issue the propriety of advising the doctor to discontinue treatment before a malpractice claim is made. In our earlier Memorandum we expressed the opinion that "even if it had a protectable interest endangered, we think public policy forbidscannot prevail for two reasons. First, it presupposes that the only disclosure which Dr. Ling made to the defendant was through the remittal of these records. The allegations of the complaint are not so narrowly drawn, nor is there any testimony negating the averment that the defendant gathered "all medical information concerning the complaint connected with the lawsuit against Euclid-Glenville Hospital * *." (Cf. p. 3 of Complaint) Until there is testimony from the doctor, we have only the self-serving declarations of the defendant through its officer and attorney that no other information passed from the doctor to the defendant. This is hardly the basis for a summary judgment in the defendant's favor.

The WIfI Wound grade was, thereafter, additionally entered as the fixed effects to investigate whether the association of the duration of the wound with wound- and amputation-free survival was independent of the wound severity. The multiple imputation method was adopted for missing data. All statistical analyses were performed using R version 3.6.0 (R Development Core Team, Vienna, Austria).

The prevalence of diabetes mellitus and regularon the duration of the wound were available in 388 of 428 patients (90.1%): 117 of 142 surgical patients (82.4%), 260 of 275 endovascular patients (94.5%), and 11of 11 conservative patients (100.0%). The duration of the wound were not different among scheduled treatment strategies (P=0.31 between surgical and endovascular, P=0.48 between surgical and conservative, and P=0.38 between endovascular and conservative, by the linear mixed model including log-transformed duration of wound as the dependent variable, treatment strategies as the fixed effects, and the inter-institution variability as the random effects).

needed middle or late trimester amniocenteses for CMA testing with indications of fetal ultra-sonographic structural anomalies or positive maternal serum biochemical screening were recruited. Formula amniocenteses were performed before the 24th gestational week for indications of serum screening, for those considered risky or aging over than 35 years old. Because China's population policy permits couples to obtain an abortion after the 28th gestational week if the fetus exhibits a severe malformation or genetic disorder, a third trimester invasive prenatal diagnoses should be performed if additional ultrasound structural anomalies were detected. Women with multiple pregnancies, a history of abortion risks, acute infectious disease or allergenic blood cell transfusion were excluded. The recruitment process is elaborated in detail in the Supplementary Material: flow chart [1](#SM1){ref-type="supplementary-material"}; in total 813 participants weredel/dup^∗^   29 (3.6%)

Deletions/duplications were categorized as pathogenic, likely pathogenic, uncertain significance, or benign. CNVs inherited from normal phenotype parents were regarded as benign, and new fetal mutations were regarded as likely pathogenic.

Before invasive procedures, participants signed a written informed consent form stating the risks of amniocenteses and the possibility of further detection for uncertain clinical significance of CMA/NIPT. Maternal peripheral blood (10 ml) was drawn in tubes containing EDTA prior to amniocenteses. Invasive procedures were performed using 22-gage needles


positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) were defined as the ratio between either true positive or true negative cases of NIPT and karyotyping results, respectively. Since only pathogenic or pathogen-like CNVs were involved in the prognosis and clinical decisions, the benign CNVs were treated as negative results for efficiency calculation purposes. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, which was created by plotting the sensitivity and 1-specificity, was used to illustrate the diagnostic ability of NIPT and karyotyping at various CNV sizes. The area under the curve (AUC) of both techniques was measured and the cutoff points of resolutions of NIPT and karyotyping for diagnosing the low limit size of CNVs were determined by curves. The previously published reports ([@B26]; [@B14]) showed expected sensitivity towards NIPTof ultrasonographic soft marker(s) during last trimester of pregnancy. For those patients having indications based on an appearance of severe fetal malformation(s), especially combined with fetal growth restriction, CMA on native amniotic fluid cells should be performed.

Conclusion
==========

Our study may have a selection-bias drawback caused by non-randomized recruiting and those indications of ultrasound findings in the study participants increased from 28.4% to 61.8% between second to third trimesters. A larger sample size for future prospective studies is necessary to get better statistical reliability. Even with such limitations, we were able to show that NIPT sequencing with low-coverage whole-genome library sequencing displays similar accuracy levels compared to the 350-band karyotyping method for detection of chromosomal anomalies. We suggest that NIPT might be more sensitive to micro-duplication/deletion events, which can be

At its peak, TVShack was among the 1,800 most visited websites in the world, the court heard, bringing O'Dwyer advertising revenue of £15,000 per month. When US customs agents seized the site in 2010 it was replaced immediately with a slightly different domain name – and the addition on the front page of a rap video called Fuck Tha Police. O'Dwyer, who was bailed, said outside court: "I am obviously disappointed with the judge's decision today. I think I have got faith in the high court for making the right decision."

He said the website had "helped me no end with my studies" and said when he first set it up he "didn't even think it would get that popular, to be honest".

The secondcase concerns Christopher Tappin, a 64-year-old golf club president from Orpington. He admits arranging the shipment of batteries that can be used in Hawk air defence missiles, but insists he had no idea about their eventual destination.

His extradition was ordered last February, even though Tappin's lawyers claim he was the victim of a sting by US agents, who told him they would arrange the necessary export licenses.

Tappin, who said he made around £300 from the deal, appealed against the decision. Two high court judges dismissed this on Friday. "Entrapment, as far as I can see, is simply unsustainable on the facts as alleged in the request," their ruling said.

The best known case thrown up by the extradition treaty concerns Gary McKinnon, the computer hacker who has spent years

When Jesus was born in Bethlehem, God gave the world the greatest gift it would ever know. Our Heavenly Father gave us a gift to save us from our sins.

As we make our plans for Thanksgiving this year – whether we are visiting family far away or hosting others in our own homes, we must not forget to spend time reflecting on what the Lord has done for us in the past year. This could be a discipleship moment when you lead the younger family members to think about which blessings from God are most important to us.

GvG match while being durable enough to survive their damage and to counter their crowd control abilities,” Tim explains. “The build utilizes a deadly burst combo that can be mixed in with good sustained damage while adding enough utility to be able to react accordingly to your current situation. Defending your backline, leading the charge or putting pressure on your enemies’ healer – all of this is possible with this build!”

Build Overview - Summary

The Arbalist offers you a kit of abilities that allow you to quickly burst down a key target, pressure your opponent’s backline, and to escape/survive incoming focus fire on yourself.

Once your enemies know about your burst damage, you can draw out their defensive abilities with ease. This will give your team an advantage and willbut also has a cast time it requires some training to hit your targets, but once you are able to land it, it will be a devastating weapon in combat.

Most of the time, your Exploding Shot is your combo starter. Once the skill hits your target, use Noise Eraser before starting Auto Fire. This will deal a massive amount of damage to your target in a very short amount of time. To increase your burst it is recommended to combine your forces with an Arcane Staff player.

Pro Tip: You can apply the bomb from Exploding Shot on a target while they are in Ice Block. As long as the detonation is after Ice Block wears off, they will receive damage. Starting your Exploding Shot roughly halfway through the

The period of follow-up was 59.1±17.3 months in the laminectomy-only group and 54.8±16.1 months in the instrument fixation group. No significant differences were found between the 2 groups in terms of age, sex distribution, duration of symptoms, follow-up, amount of bleeding, or length of hospital stay (all P\>0.05). However, the instrumented fixation group received more blood transfusions, had longer surgical times, and had higher expenses for medical treatment compared to the laminectomy-only group (all P\<0.01).

Statistical analyses revealed that spinal instability, even deformity formation, was more common in the laminectomy-only group compared to the laminectomy+fixation group (P=0.033). We found no other significant differences between these 2 surgical procedures regarding other complications (all P\>0.05).

Discussion
==========

In a clinical setting, schwannomas are the most common spinal intradural nerve sheath tumors, followed by neurofibromas \[[@b23-medscimonit-26-e921719]\]. Schwannomas generally consist of many proliferative Schwann cells. The common clinical symptoms caused by schwannomas are similar to those of cauda equina syndrome, including muscle weakness and numbness of the lower limbs,improved, which is not only indicated by most patients being very satisfied with their treatment results, but is also in line with some previous reports that documented the improvements caused by laminectomy with or without internal fixation \[[@b4-medscimonit-26-e921719],[@b30-medscimonit-26-e921719]\]. Here, it cannot be neglected that there is a close correlation between functional scores and radiographic parameters, including sagittal balance parameters \[[@b31-medscimonit-26-e921719],[@b32-medscimonit-26-e921719]\]. It has been reported that better functional outcomes and better quality of life would be achieved if the sagittal balance is restored in treating degenerative lumbar scoliosis \[[@b31-medscimonit-26-e921719]\]. In addition, sagittal vertical axis and T-1 spinopelvic inclination have been identified in as being closely correlated with some clinical scores \[[@b32-medscimonit-26-e921719]\].

To evaluate spinal column change resulting from different surgical procedures, Cobb angle changes in the sagittal plane were documented
