Will the Blue Jays have two 30+ HR hitters?

I came across a really cool website called HR Pace.com, which basically takes all the guess work out of calculating how many home runs and RBI’s that a hitter is on pace for. Taking a look at the numbers below, the Blue Jays have two potential 30+ HR hitters in Aaron Hill and Adam Lind.

Incredibly, Aaron Hill averages a home run per 17.42 at bats. That leads all second baseman in the league and ranks in the Top 10 players in the MLB in HR Pace. Coming in a close second on the Blue Jays, Adam Lind averages a home run about once every 18.14 at bats.

Intervention
------------

MHS was created as a 4-h applied workshop designed to educate and up-skill people who work in high performance sport about mental health. The main aim of the workshop was to promote early intervention by equipping participants with the knowledge and confidence to help someone who may be experiencing a mental health problem. Specifically, participants are taught the MHS action plan: *recognize, reach out, refer*, and *remain supportive*. Participants\' knowledge was targeted in each of these steps through introducing information and skills in a presentation format. Participants\' confidence to help someone experiencing a mental health problem was targeted through applying this knowledge to sport specific videos, case-studies, and role-plays. The MHS action plan was developed to summarize the steps involved in helping someone experiencing a mental health


delivery format of MHS across groups was consistent and included lectures, videos, facilitated discussions between participants and presenters, case-studies, and role-plays, and were presented within the context of elite sport. Participants were given an information pack which included business cards of the workshop facilitators, a flyer with a summary of key information from the workshop, a wallet card summarizing the MHS action plan, a suicide information sheet from SANE ("How to help when someone is suicidal," n.d.[^1^](#fn0001){ref-type="fn"}), and resources about depression and anxiety from beyondblue ("Anxiety and depression[^2^](#fn0002){ref-type="fn"}" n.d.; "Anxiety and depression in young people," n.d.)[^3^](#fn0003){ref-type="fn"}.

Design
------

A randomized controlled trial was not feasible due to workshops being facilitated at several locations around Australia. Thus, a quasi-experimental design was employed whereby workshops were divided into experimental and waitlist comparison groups.to complete the baseline survey prior to attending the workshop. One hundred sixty-six respondents consented to participate and completed baseline measurement (time 1). The four workshops comprising the experimental group were then delivered over an 8-day period. Two weeks later all participants were invited to complete the measures again (time 2). The four workshops comprising the waitlist comparison group were then delivered over another 8-day period. Finally, 2 weeks later all participants were invited to complete the measures a third time (time 3). Collectively, at time 1 no participants had received the intervention, at time 2 the experimental group had received the intervention, and at time 3 all groups had received the intervention. The timing of the workshops and measurements were structured to allow both between and within


Nurses' responses to do-not-resuscitate orders in the neonatal intensive care unit.
A statewide survey of nurses in perinatal centers was conducted to assess the prevalence of do-not-resuscitate (DNR) policies in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) and to examine factors influencing nurses in those centers in their compliance with DNR orders. Three nurses in each of 10 perinatal centers were asked to complete a questionnaire on DNR policies and nurses' compliance and to respond to four hypothetical clinical situations. Eighteen of the 27 responding nurses reported the existence of a DNR policy. Factors affecting compliance with DNR orders were agreement that the infant should not be resuscitated (n = 24) or respect for the parents' wishes (n = 19). Nurses' intention to resuscitate despite a DNR order varied, depending on---

# ConvertFrom-StringData

## SYNOPSIS
Converts a string containing one or more key and value pairs to a hash table.

## SYNTAX

```
ConvertFrom-StringData [-StringData] <String> [<CommonParameters>]
```

## DESCRIPTION

The `ConvertFrom-StringData` cmdlet converts a string that contains one or more key and value pairs
into a hash table. Because each key-value pair must be on a separate line, here-strings are often
used as the input format. By default, the **key** must be separated from the **value** by an equals
sign (`=`) character.

The `ConvertFrom-StringData` cmdlet is considered to be a safe cmdlet that can be used in the `DATA`
section of a script or function. When used in a `DATA` section, the contents of the string must
conform to the rules for a DATA section. For more information, see
[about_Data_Sections](../Microsoft.PowerShell.Core/About/about_Data_Sections.md).

`ConvertFrom-StringData` supports


variable contains the name of the user's private notebook.
```

Because the text includes variable names, it must be enclosed in a single-quoted string so that the
variables are interpreted literally and not expanded. Variables are not permitted in the **DATA**
section.

### Example 5: Use the pipeline operator to pass a string

This example shows that you can use a pipeline operator (`|`) to send a string to
`ConvertFrom-StringData`. The the value of the `$Here` variable is piped to `ConvertFrom-StringData`
and the result in the `$Hash` variable.

```powershell
$Here = @'
Msg1 = The string parameter is required.
Msg2 = Credentials are required for this command.
Msg3 = The specified variable does not exist.
'@
$Hash = $Here | ConvertFrom-StringData
$Hash
```

```Output
Name     Value
----     -----
Msg3     The specified variable does not exist.
Msg2  is quite small, $\Omega \approx
0.003 - 0.01$. On somewhat larger scales, that of galactic halos or small groups of galaxies, $\Omega \approx 0.02 - 0.1$. On galaxy cluster scales, it appears that $\Omega$ may be as large as 0.3. And while there is some evidence, the observations are far from conclusive in indicating a value of $\Omega$ as large as 1. It is however possible to obtain a bound on the product, $\Omega h^2$ from H\_o t\_o = \_0\^1 ( 1 - + /x )\^[-1/2]{} dx (for $\Lambda = 0$). For $t_o > 12$Gyr, and $\Omega \le 1$, $\Omega h^2 < 0.3$ (This is true even if $\Lambda \ne 0$.)

As indicated above, BBN takes place during the radiation dominated epoch which lasts roughly to the period of recombination


the total number of degrees of freedom for type i, E\_[q\_[i]{}]{} = (m\_[i]{}\^[2]{} + q\_[i]{}\^[ 2]{})\^[1/2]{} $\mu_{i}$ is the chemical potential if present and $ \pm$ corresponds to either Fermi or Bose statistics.

In the limit that $T \gg m_{i} $ the total energy density can be conveniently expressed by = ( \_B g\_[B]{} + [7 8]{} \_F g\_[F]{} ) [\^[ 2]{} 30]{} T\^[4]{} N(T) T\^[4]{} \[NT\] where $g_{B(F)} $ are the total number of boson (fermion) degrees of freedom and the sum runs over all boson (fermion) states with $m \ll T$. The factor of 7/8 is due to the difference between the Fermi and Bose integrals. Equation (\[NT\]) defines N(T) by taking into account new particle degrees of freedom as the temperature is raised.

In the radiation dominatedany one HII region (with non-zero metallicity) should provide an upper limit to $Y_p$ since some stellar processing has taken place augmenting the primordial value. Thus the determination of $Y_p$ by an extrapolation to zero metallicity could be avoided by the observations of either low metallicity or low helium HII regions. For a very low metallicity HII region such an upper limit may even provide a reasonable estimate of $Y_p$.

Another way to avoid an extrapolation to zero metallicity (though such an extrapolation is in fact quite minimal given the low metallicity data available), one can perform a Bayesian analysis [@hos] in which one makes no other assumption other than the observed 4 abundance is greater than or equal to the primordial abundance. That is, one can consider three


for the data taken from ref. [@mol].

=7truecm

As one can see from the figure, at high temperatures, where the convection zone does not go deep below the surface, the Li abundance is uniform. At lower temperatures, the surface abundance of Li is depleted as Li passes through the hotter interior of the star and is destroyed. The lack of dispersion in the plateau region is evidence that this abundance is indeed primordial (or at least very close to it). Another way to see the plateau is to plot the Li abundance data as a function of metallicity, this time with the restriction that $T > 5500$ K as seen in Figure \[fig:life\].

=7truecm

In this case, the plateau emerges at low \[Fe/H\] as would be expected. At higher \[Fe/H\], the convectionargued below D and 3 are far more sensitive to chemical evolution than 4 or 7 and as such the direct comparison between the theoretical predictions of the primordial abundances of D and 3 with the observational determination of their abundances is far more difficult. Therefore in what follows I will for the most part restrict the comparison between theory and observation to the two isotopes who suffer the least from the effects of chemical evolution.

Chemical Evolution
==================

Because we can not directly measure the primordial abundances of any of the light element isotopes, we are required to make some assumptions concerning the evolution of these isotopes. As has been discussed above, 4 is produced in stars along with oxygen and nitrogen. 7 can be destroyed in stars and produced


through a relation such as = -(t) + e(t) + i(t) - o(t) where $e$ represents the amount of gas ejected from stars, $i$ is the gas infall rate, and $o$ is the gas outflow rate. The ejection rate is in turn given by e(t) = (m-m\_R) (m) (t-(m)) dm \[eject\] where $m_R$ is the remnant mass (a function of the stellar mass $m$ as well) and $\tau(m)$ is the stellar lifetime. If we ignore $\tau(m)$, then the ejection rate is simply proportional to the star formation rate $\psi$, $e(t) = R \psi$. $R$ is referred to as the return fraction and this approximation is known as the instantaneous recycling approximation (IRA). Similar equations can be developed which trace the abundances of the element isotopes [@bt]. Neglecting bothfunction of 4 and 7 with that of D/H. Since D and 3 are monotonic functions of $\eta$, a prediction for $\eta$, based on 4 and 7, can be turned into a prediction for D and 3. The corresponding 95% CL ranges are D/H $= (4.3 - 25)  \times
10^{-5}$ and 3/H $= (1.2 - 2.6)  \times 10^{-5}$. If we did have full confidence in the measured value of D/H in quasar absorption systems, then we could perform the same statistical analysis using 4, 7, and D. To include D/H, one would proceed in much the same way as with the other two light elements. We compute likelihood functions for the BBN predictions as in Eq. (\[gau\]) and the likelihood function for the observations. These are then

If you use a key that does not exist, this will only blow up at runtime. Keys left over from removed code accumulate in the resource files and introduce unnecessary overhead on the translators. Translation files can quickly turn to disarray.

i18n-tasks improves this by using static analysis. It scans calls such as I18n.t('some.key') and provides reports on key usage, missing, and unused keys. It can also can pre-fill missing keys, including from Google Translate, and it can remove unused keys as well.

i18n-tasks can be used with any project using i18n (default in Rails).

Breaking the Waves

Lars von Trier

My favorite von Trier film. Everything from Emily Watson's breakthrough, tour-de-force performance (I’ve never seen an actress break the fourth wall to the camera like this before) to the haunting title cards set to Jethro Tull, Deep Purple, Elton John, David Bowie, and Procol Harum. Such a heartbreaking story of what desperate measures love can drive you to.

Blue Is the Warmest Color

Abdellatif Kechiche

My favorite French film of this century that wasn’t directed by Gasper Noé. Even though it’s mainly infamous for its three very explicit sex scenes, this is really an intense love story—girl meets girl, girl loses girl—and completely heart-wrenchingat times. It’s three-hour length flies by. I easily could have watched another three hours of these absolutely incredible performances. I can’t wait to see what Adèle does next. I could not take my eyes off of her.

House

Nobuhiko Obayashi

I love that Criterion not only focuses on the classic work of the Fellinis, the Bergmans and the Kurosawas of film history but also gives attention to controversial, camp, and cult films like Salò, Head, Beyond the Valley of the Dolls, and Pink Flamingos. And none is more strangely perfect than House.

One of the most beautifully strange and original films I’ve ever seen. Almost like a psychedelic, live-action Japanese version of an episode of Teletubbies, H.R. Pufnstuf, or Scooby-Doo. The fact that both this and Eraserhead came out in the

and then decide they can't really cope after all. It's these that get to me the most, because it really does look as though there's no escape from addiction. It doesn't matter what you have done or how long you've been in recovery, play one wrong hand and the whole deck collapses.

I'm sure there are addicts who have started smoking dope and drinking again and are doing OK. But it seems a hell of a gamble for them to take. I couldn't predict what would happen to me if I started using again - though I've a pretty good guess - so how can they? And if they do get away with it, what are they getting away with? Imagine what it must be like to live inthe knowledge that things could go pear-shaped at any time.

I'm no longer bothered by the esoteric debates that go on in social policy about whether addiction is a disease or not - it feels like a minor intellectual distraction. I'm not much interested in the political battles on how best to treat addicts, as every suggestion I've heard sounds like another useless sticking plaster on a huge festering wound. There are no guarantees or easy treatments for addicts.

None unscathed

Back in 1987, Adam, Paulo, Nico and I thought we were the lucky ones. We were the survivors who had found recovery. And maybe we were lucky. I've no idea what happened to most of the people I took heroin with, but I'm sure that most must be dead if


Day -3: Berlin-Paillard in 14 hours

Mika, Paula and Hannah pack the car full of workshop and camping materials and set off from Berlin (a bit late:-). The drive is smooth and we pass through Paris just before midnight and see some of the 14th July fireworks. Arrive at Paillard 1:30am. Eat some pasta, drink some wine, sleep.Dr. David Carpenter MD, a graduate of Harvard Medical School and a physician who has worked in the area of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) and public health for over 18 years, has a few choice words for power companies that are forcingdown the throats of their customers all over the United States.

Dr. Carpenter adamantly insists that there is no evidence whatsoever that smart meters are in any way safe for human beings. He goes on to say that there is, in fact, ample evidence that demonstrates “convincingly and consistently” that exposure to radiofrequency radiation (RFR) at elevated levels for long periods of time increases the risk of cancer, damages the nervous system, and adversely affects the reproductive organs.

Dr. Carpenter says that an informed person should demand that they be


allowed to keep their analog meter.

The two minute video interview with Dr. Carpenter below is well worth watching.

If you are having smart meters forced upon you where you live, know that California power customers have recently won the battle to keep their analog meters. There is both an annual and monthly charge for this “inconvenience” to the power utilities, but at least customers now have a choice to opt out where they did not before.

This precedent for opting out in California should make it easier for others with smart meters who don’t want them in other areas of the United States to be able to get their analog meters back as well.

While smart meters reduce workload and increase profitability for the power companies, they do so at theTransmission potential of the new influenza A(H1N1) virus and its age-specificity in Japan.
On 16 May 2009, Japan confirmed its first three cases of new influenza A(H1N1) virus infection without a history of overseas travel, and by 1 June, 361 cases, owing to indigenous secondary transmission, have been confirmed. Of these, 287 cases (79.5%) were teenagers (i.e. between 10 and 19 years of age). The reproduction number is estimated at 2.3 (95% confidence interval: 2.0, 2.6). The average number of secondary transmissions involving minors (those under 20 years of age) traced back to infected minors is estimated at 2.8. That is, minors can sustain transmission even in the absence of adults. Estimates of the effective reproduction number Rt moved below 1 by 17 May. Active surveillance and public health

Anthropologist Dr. Carleton S. Coon has succinctly summarized the prevailing philosophy of the majority of the peoples (and therefore their governments) of the world in what he terms the “Neolithic philosophy: You stay in your village and I will stay in mine. If your sheep eat our grass we will kill you, or we may kill you anyhow to get all the grass for our own sheep. Anyone who tries to change our ways is a witch and we will kill him. Keep out of our village!”

This Neolithic philosophy was successful for its time as an attempt to cope with a world where shortages and outright lack of basic survival necessities have been the norm. It created

It came into being about 250 years ago as a philosophical buttress to the First Industrial Revolution and it was a better least-effort solution: "Make it, don't take it, and everybody has more." This may be termed “.”Until the Neolithic philosophy of Coon disappears from the human race (if it ever does; it may be an important long-term survival trait), it would be folly to believe that mankind will disarm and settle all disputes by negotiation. The arts of diplomacy and politics are not yet rigorous enough to prevent us from killing each other all of the time … just some of the time. It is a very delicate evolving system that requires thefrom the planetary surface requires a great deal of energy. Partway up the gravity well, it is possible to maintain the position of an object by making it spin around the surface of the funnel rapidly enough so that centrifugal force neatly balances the gravitational force tending to pull the object back to the planet at the bottom of the funnel. To get away from the earth, one must project an object such as a space vehicle up the side of the gravitational well at an initial speed of 7 miles per second; it then climbs the walls of the well and, if its direction and speed are just right, crosses the nearly level plain at the top until it falls into the gravity well of the Moon.


mass driver as well as a very large and stable base to improve its accuracy. Launching very large masses at speeds of a mile per second or more produces some massive reaction forces which would misalign or reorient any mass driver located on its own in orbital space.

The lunar mass driver is a critical system requirement for the overall industrialization of the Earth-Moon system. Although an Earth-based mass driver is a potential commercial cargo transportation system for terrestrial materials launched into space, the energy requirements are very large because of the Earth’s atmosphere and the very deep gravity well; the lunar mass driver is the most economical cargo r transportation device now envisioned for providing materials for space industrialization, including the materials to construct large space structures. Itas weapons systems against space facilities. Such small mass drivers can be considered as space Gatling guns. Such a small mass driver is envisioned as throwing a mass of a couple of kilograms, but throwing such small masses in very rapid succession. The impact of a one kilogram mass travelling at several miles per second can do considerable damage to a space facility—such as when several hundred or thousand such masses impact a solar power satellite, the iridescent solar panels of a reconnaissance satellite, or the pressure hull of a crewed space station.

No explosives are required for such space weapons; the conversion of kinetic energy to heat is quite sufﬁcient.

The military capabilities of mass drivers built and used for commercial purposes are such that they will require protection

Using three of the largest cluster catalogues produced to date, and described in the next section, we relate the optical richness to statistical measures of mass related observables, in particular we focus here on the effects of gravitational redshift and gravitational magnification.

The effect of gravitational redshift is simply a consequence of the reduced frequency of light observed for objects emitting from a lower gravitational potential relative to the observer. This relativistic effect has been advocated in terms of the change in frequency of emission lines present in the hot cluster gas [@Broadhurst2000] which may be applied to individual relaxed clusters where bulk gas motions do not dominate. This new observational signature of clusters differs from others, in the sense that it


and [@Rykoff2012], with several improvements to take into account things such as the survey mask, the probability of each galaxy to belong to the cluster, the contribution of foreground and background galaxies, etc. We refer the reader to @Rykoff2014 for further details. In order to obtain a mass estimate from the richness provided by the catalog, we will use the richness-mass relation as provided in [@Rykoff2012]: $$M_{200m} = \mathrm{exp}(1.69) \, \left ( \frac{\lambda_\mathrm{col}}{60} \right )^{1.08}\times 10^{14}\,\mathrm{M}_\odot\,h^{-1}\,.$$ Although the richness estimators $\lambda_\mathrm{col}$ and $\lambda$ differ in many aspects, it is shown that the median deviation between them is no larger than 10%. It may be noted that this does not provide a rigorous mass calibration, as it is based on abundance matching techniques using a [@Tinker2008] mass function, andwhose Schechter best fit parameters are: $\Phi_*=0.0093$, $M_*-5\log_{10} h=-20.71$ and $\alpha=-1.26$. It would be more accurate to use the specific luminosity function associated to galaxies belonging to the clusters considered, but it was shown by @Hansen2009 that it doesn’t differ much from the overall survey luminosity function, so we can use it as a good approximation. To calculate the average we use the Legacy galaxy distribution seen in Fig. \[fig:Galaxies\_Redshift\_Distribution\]: $$\langle \mathrm{d}\ln n/\mathrm{d}\ln L \rangle=\frac{\int_{z_1}^{z_2}(\mathrm{d}\ln n/\mathrm{d}\ln L)\,(\mathrm{d}N/\mathrm{d}z)\, \mathrm{d}z}{\int_{z_1}^{z_2} (\mathrm{d}N/\mathrm{d}z)\, \mathrm{d}z}\,,$$ where the lowest $z_1$ and highest $z_2$ redshift limits of integration are chosen according to the cluster sample considered in each case.

The velocity total shift observed from a stacked sample of cluster haloes would then be: $$\Delta(r_\perp)=c\,\frac{\int_{M_1}^{M_2} \Delta z\,(M,r_\perp)\,\Sigma (r_\perp)\,(\mathrm{d}n(M)/\mathrm{d}M)\,\mathrm{d}M}{\int_{M_1}^{M_2} \Sigma (r_\perp)\,(\mathrm{d}n(M)/\mathrm{d}M)\,\mathrm{d}M }\,$$ where we integrate between the mass


range defined by the lowest $M_1$ and highest $M_2$ masses considered in each catalog, and the mass distribution in each case is given by $\mathrm{d}n(M)/\mathrm{d}M$, which is functionally fitted from the observed distribution of clusters, as in Fig. \[fig:Clusters\_Mass\_Distribution\], but in this case considering only those that were not discarded in the process, that is, with sufficient nearby galaxies with spectroscopic measurements for a meaningful measurement. The model curves predict almost the same internal redshift for both GMBCG and WHL12 cluster samples, as the lowest mass and the mass distribution of clusters are almost identical for both catalogues. The main difference between these two catalogues, i.e., WHL12 ranging to higher masses, does not change the shape of the model curve too much as the contribution coming from high mass$\pm 2$kms$^{-1}$ from the measurements obtained using the GMBCG catalogue. Even when all the $\Delta$ measured points remain negative, there is no clear evidence for a stronger internal redshift signal compared to the one provided by GMBCG catalogue.

Now, as the number of clusters is relatively small, we measure the integrated signal of $\Delta$ up to 7$r_{200c}$ for only two mass subsamples of clusters. In this case, we use, as in the GMBCG case, the $r_{200c}$ estimates obtained assuming a NFW density profile for the clusters considered. The resulting measurements for the two mass bins, $\Delta=-10.1\pm 3.5$kms$^{-1}$ and $-21.1\pm 5.1$kms$^{-1}$ at $M_{200m}=2.4\times 10^{14}M_\odot\,h^{-1}$ and $5.3\times 10^{14} M_\odot\,h^{-1}$, respectively, are displayed in Fig. \[fig:grav\_shift\_stacked\]. This comparison shows that the measured $\Delta$ appears to be more negative for the high-mass sample than

Boynton Beach is Not Alone

Boynton Beach is definitely not the only city dealing with increasing drug overdoses. The outbreak of overdose rates and overdose deaths is nationwide. For Palm Beach County, the ‘recovery capitol’ also faces


drug dealers and users, but Florida police are cracking down hard.

As someone who lives here in South Florida as a transplant from the Midwest and an active member of the recovery community it brings a great deal of satisfaction to see the area I now consider my home-away-from-home become a better place.

The last couple months there has been reason to celebrate some of the efforts put forth by law enforcement to make these cities safer. With stories in the news about how bad it gets out there, I figured it would be good to highlight two very recent stories of how police have made massive strides in the right direction when it comes to cutting off influence of the drug dealers in their neighborhoods.

she at once spoke
to Mr. Santley. She did not oppose his suit--indeed, she liked him
greatly, but love, after all, was no mere school-girl’s dream. Was
he in a position to make Ellen his wife? In any case, they must know
about it at home. If Mr. Derwent approved, she would be most happy
that Mr. Santley should visit her; but, in the meantime, it was only
prudent that Ellen should discontinue these pleasant rambles.

He had never seen Ellen since, until her face made his heart stand
still in the midst of his sermon.

The vicar rose from the stile with clenched hands and set teeth.

“Bitter, bitter!” he said, raising his face to the sky and shaking his
head as though he saw above him an invisible face, and spoke half in
exquisite pain, half in stoicaleaves, while patches of stonecrop and houseleek,
which had established themselves on the slated roof, gave it a
singular aspect of complete abandonment.

As Mr. Santley entered one of the walks which led to the terraced
entrance, Mrs. Haldane, who had observed his approach, appeared on the
stone steps, and descended to meet him.

“How good of you to come so early!” she exclaimed. “George will be
delighted. He is in his laboratory, experimenting as usual. We shall
join him, after you have had some refreshment.”

“No refreshment for me, thank you.”

“Are you quite sure? You must require something after so long a walk.”

“Nothing really, I assure you.”

“Well, I shall not press you, as we shall have dinner soon. Shall
we go to Mr. Haldane? Have you visited the Manor before--not in our
absence? How do you like it?”

“I


envy you your magnificent woods.

“Yes; are they not charming? And you will like the house, too, when
you have seen it.”

“Do you not find it dull, however?” asked the vicar, looking into her
face with an expression of keen scrutiny. “You are still young--in the
blossom of your youth--and society must still have its attractions for
you.”

“One enjoys society all the more after a little seclusion.”

“No doubt.”

“And we have just returned, you must recollect, from a whole year of
wandering and sight-seeing, so that it is a positive relief to awaken
morning after morning and find the same peaceful landscape, the same
quiet woods about one.”

“That is very natural; but the heart does not long remain content with
the unchanging face of nature, however beautiful it may be. Even the

She had finished playing with the cool stream, and was letting her
feet dry in the patches of sunlight that pierced through the branches
above her, when she heard a sound of voices. She hastily tried to draw
on her stockings, but her skin was still too moist; and so, gathering
her feet under her skirt, she concealed herself as much as possible
from the observation of the intruders. As they approached she
recognized the voices with a start, and crouched down behind the
boulder more closely than before.

“We can go no further this way,” said Mrs. Haldane.

“Oh yes, we can. I will assist you over the stones,” the vicar
rejoined.

instead of trying to save me from myself, you cast me from you, you

Myeloid cells such as monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells express pathogen recognition receptors that bind to the pathogen and initiate an immune response. Fungal cell wall components such as β-glucans and mannans are recognized by cell surface C-type lectin-like receptors, including Dectin-1, Dectin-2, and Mincle, and by TLRs such as TLR2 and TLR4 ([@r5]--[@r9]). More recently, it has been shown that nucleic acids and chitin from *Candida* spp. are sensed by the endosomal receptors TLR7 and TLR9 and the cytoplasmic receptor nucleotide oligomerization domain (NOD) 2 ([@r10]--[@r12]). Engagement of these receptors on myeloid cells results in the production of various cytokines, including TNF, IL-12, IL-23, IL-1β, IL-10, IL-6, and type I IFNs (IFN-α

IL-27 production is induced by *C. parapsilosis* in myeloid cells {#s17}
-----------------------------------------------------------------

As various *Candida* spp. induce IL-12 and IL-23 and both of these IL-12 family members are involved in the antifungal immune response ([@r17], [@r18], [@r21]), we postulated that an additional IL-12response, which promotes *C. parapsilosis* eradication. Although we have observed enhanced inflammatory responses and slightly elevated inflammation in the kidneys, these changes have not resulted in severe or lethal disease. This may be because *C. parapsilosis* is mainly nonpathogenic in healthy individuals and because in our model it induces a CD8^+^ T cell--biased response with a much lower CD4^+^ T cell response.

Taken together, our results identify a previously unrecognized role for IL-27 in the regulation of *C. parapsilosis* infections. This is the first description of IL-27 production in response to any *Candida* spp. alone. IL-27 is produced through a complex phagocytosis, TLR7/NOD2, IFN-β, IFNAR1-STAT1/2 pathway ([Supplemental Fig. 4](#DC1){ref-type="supplementary-material"}). The absence of IL-27 signaling promotes enhanced IFN-γ and IL-17 responses that correlate with enhanced clearance of the pathogen. Therefore,

1. Introduction {#sec0005}
===============

The thromboembolic risk associated with cancer has been described for several specific malignancies including bladder cancer [@bib0005] and breast cancer [@bib0010], [@bib0015] but only rarely for metastatic melanoma [@bib0020], [@bib0025], and to our knowledge not for cutaneous melanoma.

Other known thromboembolic risk factors include immobilization, trauma, major surgery, pregnancy, obesity, certain drugs, advancing age, some hematological disorders, congenital coagulation factor abnormalities and more.

Both circulating tumor cells and solid tumors may exhibit procoagulant properties.

The presence of circulating tumor cells in peripheral blood has been shown in a prospective study by Mego M et al. [@bib0010] to exhibit a positive association with elevated plasma D-dimer levels in primary breast cancer, indicating a potential role for activation of the coagulation cascade by circulating tumor cells. A retrospective study by MegoM et al. [@bib0015] showed a direct association between circulating tumor cells and increased risk of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in patients with metastatic breast cancer.

Studies so far have found associations between venous thromboembolism (VTE) and certain native properties of cancer cells as both direct activators of the coagulation cascade, and indirect activators by stimulating the prothrombotic potential of other cells.

There are several mechanisms involved and considered to be responsible for a hypercoagulable state in malignancy. It has been shown that constant expression of Tissue Factor (coagulation factor III) and Cancer Procoagulant (CP) protein by cancer cells, expression by cancer cells of fibrinolytic molecules, and cancer cell release of microparticles and cytokines can induce thrombosis [@bib0030], [@bib0035]. Furthermore direct physical interaction between cancer cells and normal cells has

"There is a point in time after which the human body will have adjusted to the 38% gravitation field of Mars, and be incapable of returning to the Earth's much stronger gravity. This is due to the total physiological change in the human body, which includes reduction in bone density, muscle strength, and circulatory system capacity."and thus determine the paracellular permeability and the tightness of the epithelial barriers \[[@B1-pharmaceutics-11-00073],[@B4-pharmaceutics-11-00073]\]. The absorption level and rate across biological barriers depends on the composition of cellular membranes, the anatomical structures, and the expression pattern of TJ proteins and transporters in the cell membrane \[[@B5-pharmaceutics-11-00073]\]. TJs are complex structures composed of integral membrane proteins including among others the occludin protein and the claudin family \[[@B6-pharmaceutics-11-00073]\].

One of the basic strategies to improve drug delivery is the modulation of barrier function by the targeted opening of TJs \[[@B1-pharmaceutics-11-00073]\] Peptides which act directly on TJs and modulate their permeability are potential candidates to increase the absorption of hydrophilic or large therapeutic molecules in a non-invasive manner \[[@B1-pharmaceutics-11-00073],[@B7-pharmaceutics-11-00073]\]. In our recent work six TJ modulator peptides acting on different targets were


Drugs were used at 10 μM concentrations and samples were measured by HPLC as described below. The apparent permeability coefficients (P~app~) were calculated as described previously \[[@B8-pharmaceutics-11-00073],[@B24-pharmaceutics-11-00073]\]. Briefly, cleared volume was calculated from the concentration difference of the tracer in the basal compartments (Δ\[C\]~B~) after 30 min and apical compartments at 0 h (\[C\]~A~), the volume of the basal compartment (V~B~; 1.5 mL) and the surface area available for permeability (A; 1.1 cm^2^).

2.9. High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)Analytical Procedures {#sec2dot9-pharmaceutics-11-00073}
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Analytical measurements were performed on a Merck-Hitachi LaChrom HPLC system equipped with an ultraviolet (UV) and fluorescence detector (Merck, Darmstadt, Germany). All reagents used were of analytical reagent grade. Atenolol and verapamil were determined by using a Gemini C18 column (150 × 3 mm, 5 μm, 110 Å; Phenomenex Inc.,42% of the control value after 1-min treatment ([Figure 3](#pharmaceutics-11-00073-f003){ref-type="fig"}A). The decrease of TEER continued until the end of the 30-min treatment (5 min: 16%, 15 min: 2.7%, 30 min: 1.4% of the control value). After the removal of the peptide the barrier function of Caco-2 cells was restored about 44% of the control value at six hours and a complete recovery could be observed at the 20 h timepoint. Intact TJs providing the morphological basis of barrier functions were visualized between Caco-2 epithelial cells in the control group by transmission electron microscopy, but no junctions were observed following treatment with PN159 peptide ([Figure 3](#pharmaceutics-11-00073-f003){ref-type="fig"}B). The disappearance of intercellular TJs was reversible, because after 1-day recovery the ultrastructure of epithelial junctions became similar to control cells. No open


effects of three other CPPs on Caco-2 cells were followed by real-time impedance measurements ([Figure 9](#pharmaceutics-11-00073-f009){ref-type="fig"}A). The R8 and φ-peptides decreased the cell impedance during the 24-h monitoring which indicates a cell reaction. Changes in cell index without cytotoxic effects most probably are caused by an increase in plasma membrane ionic permeability. There was no major influence of CPPs on barrier integrity ([Figure 9](#pharmaceutics-11-00073-f009){ref-type="fig"}B,C) as compared to the effect of PN159. We observed a slightly decreased TEER in the case of R8 and φ-peptide and only the φ-peptide caused an elevated permeability for the fluorescein marker molecule. Based on these results the investigated CPPs have no significant opening effect on the intercellular junctions, which was also verified by immunostaining for junctional proteins ([Figure 9](#pharmaceutics-11-00073-f009){ref-type="fig"}D).

4. Discussion {#sec4-pharmaceutics-11-00073}
=============

We investigated forEffect of PN159 {#sec4dot3-pharmaceutics-11-00073}
-------------------------------------------------------

We observed a concentration-dependent cellular uptake of PN159 on intestinal barrier cells as reflected in the confocal microscope images. PN159 has a fast uptake in human melanoma cells, treatment with 1 µM concentration already causing detectable entry of the peptide into the cells, in concordance with our results \[[@B12-pharmaceutics-11-00073]\]. The cellular uptake of PN159 was also verified on other four cell lines \[[@B42-pharmaceutics-11-00073]\]. After treatment with a concentration of 10 µM, the peptide entered the cytoplasm of cells without cytotoxic effects, similar to our data.

Most of the CPPs have antimicrobial activity due to their structural properties, especially the cationic and the amphipathic membrane active peptides \[[@B13-pharmaceutics-11-00073]\]. Based on literature data the amphipathic PN159 effectively inhibited the growth of different microorganisms, like *Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus epidermidis,


paper. From the other three investigated peptides, R8 and φ-peptide have positively charged arginine clusters ([Table 1](#pharmaceutics-11-00073-t001){ref-type="table"}) and are considered as clearly cationic CPPs \[[@B17-pharmaceutics-11-00073]\]. Pep-1 also contains a positively charged amino acid cluster and is rich in tryptophan repeats ([Table 1](#pharmaceutics-11-00073-t001){ref-type="table"}). Neither PN159 contains clusters of arginine or positively charged amino acids, nor tryptophan ([Table 1](#pharmaceutics-11-00073-t001){ref-type="table"}). While we have not found a CPP with a TJ modulator effect in the current study, we cannot exclude that other membrane active peptides can have such dual action. The amphipathic antimicrobial peptide melittin enhanced the paracellular permeability for dextran marker molecules on Caco-2 cells \[[@B46-pharmaceutics-11-00073]\]. The opening of TJs by melittin was mediated, at least partially, by the prostaglandin signaling pathway \[[@B46-pharmaceutics-11-00073]\].

Senior figures in the Scottish financial services industry have clashed over how independence would affect business.

Industry body Scottish Financial Enterprise (SFE) said higher costs and complexity would hamper competitiveness following independence.

A briefing paper also insisted a new financial regulator would be required.

But a group including the former chief executive of RBS has said independence could lead to more jobs and investment.

The clash came ahead of the Scottish independence referendum, on 18 September.

The financial services industry employs about 100,000 people in Scotland directly, and another 100,000 indirectly.

In its briefing paper on Scottish independence, SFE said there were "some major risks and uncertainties" around independence, including the nature and cost of any new regulatory

Introduction

Sometimes, developers need to backup and restore databases. This is not a problem when you have SQL Server Management Studio installed. But what if Management Studio is not installed? In this case, you can use sqlcmd utility. In some cases, you need to backup databases programmatically and this could be done via Server Management objects. In this article, I will shortly describe what SMO is and how to use it for database backup and restore.

Server Management Objects (SMO) is a collection of classes that represent the core SQL Server Database Engine objects. SMO allows you to programmatically manipulate SQL Server (2008, 2005, 2000 and 7.0). All functions available in SQL Server Management Studio are available in SMO but SMO includes several more features than Management Studio.

Background

Before writing anyapplied to a probe tip, that is, the force can be varied from 100 nN to 1 N, it can scratch nanochannels on both hard and soft materials by a nanoindenter, and the resulting dimensions of the nanochannels have greater ranges in terms of the depth and width. In this paper, by taking advantage of IndL, we present a new fabrication process that is capable of creating an all-transparent and polymer-based (that is, polydimethylsiloxane or PDMS) nanofluidic device with nanochannel arrays, which have controllable channel sizes. The smallest dimensions of the achievable nanochannels that we have demonstrated thus far are \~20 nm depth and \~800 nm width, with lengths extendable beyond 100 μm. Liquid flow experiments are also conducted to prove the reliability of the device and observe the nanofluidic flow phenomenon. The


govern nanochannel production via this method. For a single scratch, the nanochannel length is 10 μm and the fabrication duration is \~5 min. Moreover, nanochannels with different aspect ratios (the 'aspect ratio' here is defined as the depth of the channel divided by the width of the channel) are fabricated, as the applied loading force is varied. The results indicate that nanochannels fabricated this way are reproducible. For example, under a loading force varying from 200 to 6000 μN, nanochannels are repeatedly fabricated using a specific loading force three times. [Figures 2a and b](#fig2){ref-type="fig"}, respectively, show the average values of the channel width, depth, and aspect ratio based on the three sets of AFM (Agilent 5500, Agilent Technologies Inc., 1601m California Street, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA) measurement results; the relateddimension of the achievable nanochannels is a depth of \~20 nm and a width of \~800 nm under an applied force of 200 μN. Thus, this approach exhibits flexibility in the fabrication of nanochannels with specific aspect ratios by applying the corresponding loading forces. Therefore, the nanoscratching method is an effective, reliable, and repeatable method for fabricating nanochannels with controllable aspect ratios on PMMA substrates, according to the intended application.

Deeper and longer nanochannels can be made on PMMA substrates by repeatedly scratching the surface in the length-wise direction. The 'separation distance' between each scratch leads to different effects. Here, the 'separation distance' is defined as the distance between the initial locations where the probe tip starts to scratch the successive 10-μm-long channels in the length-wise direction. Therefore, when the separation distance


function of a nanoindenter, has also been explored for creating both straight and non-linear nanochannels on PMMA substrates. Nanochannels are fabricated by producing successive indentations with the probe; the process requires approximately 80 min to indent a straight nanochannel with a length of 10 μm and nearly 2 h to produce a circular channel with a radius of 5 μm. Although the aspect ratios of the nanochannels fabricated by the nanoindentation process are lower and the required fabrication time is longer than the corresponding results obtained from nanoscratching, indentation remains a promising method for fabricating complex-shaped nanochannels. [Figure 4](#fig4){ref-type="fig"} shows the nanochannels fabricated by a conical-shaped tip under different working modes of a nanoindenter.

Based on the technique of scratching by nanomechanical probes, nanochannel arrays are designed and fabricated on PMMA substrates, asthere are many tests it tries to perform all of them and fail with the very sam error message. Is it possible to prevent it from executing the tests if the beforeAll function fails?

Until recently, there were only two basic types of multi-shed weaving systems. These systems are (1) flat weft-wave systems, i.e., those in which a multiplicity of sheds move in the weft direction along a flat path, and (2) curved warp-wave or rotor systems, i.e., those in which a multiplicity of sheds move in the warp direction along a curved path. These weaving systems suffer from several disadvantages, one of the most critical disadvantages being the severe limitation in the diversification of weaves available due to the inability to use standard shed-forming mechanisms.
In the applicant's U.S. Pat. No. 4,122,871, there is disclosed a third type of multi-shed weaving which overcomes many of the disadvantages of the flat weft-wave systems and the curved warp-wave systems.

These studies show that birds use their color vision to find their food, and also that color contrast is highly important to identify objects. Our scientists were able to prove color preferences in seeds among different species, regardless of shape, and how color contrast in a seed mix can be very important in seed selection.

#defineExorcism: Live! Destination America to air first live televised exorcism

When there’s something strange in your neighborhood — and it hasn’t disappeared for over 60 years — who ya gonna call? Real-life paranormal investigators, apparently.

EW can exclusively reveal that Destination America will air the first live televised exorcism in the U.S. with the upcoming special Exorcism: Live!

Starring psychic medium Chip Coffey and the cast of Ghost Asylum (perhaps better known as the Tennessee Wraith Chasers), the special will focus on their investigation of the house that inspired the Exorcist novel and film in the suburbs of St. Louis, Missouri.

This is not the first time that an exorcism has been televised — in 1971, NBC aired the first-ever televised exorcism. However, this is the first time that an exorcism will


be performed on the house itself, and the first time it will be broadcast live. This exorcism in particular will take place 66 years after one of several were performed on Roland Doe in 1949 at the St. Louis house.

Exorcism: Live! will air this October live from the house. Destination America will also be at San Diego Comic-Con giving away Ghost Asylum bags to fans around San Diego for those who can’t quite wait for the live attempted exorcism.GMOs Key To Enhancing Agriculture In Ghana

Professor Kenneth Danso, Director of Biotechnology and Nuclear Agricultural Research Institute has said Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) will stand the test of time and enhance agricultural development in Ghana should be fully adopted here n Ghana.

Professor Danso made the said this during a sensitisation workshop organised by Open Forum for Agricultural Biotechnology (OFAB) Ghana, for stakeholders in Agriculture in the Upper East Region on Genetically Modified Organism (GMOs), Biotechnology and safety issues.

The aim was to rekindle awareness using scientific basic genetics to explain the making of GMOs to increase farmers understanding of how sound it was to adopt the technology.

Professor Danso explained that the technology was not new, so far as cell formation was concerned, since it was the same as it

after passage through an optically clear medium (water) without ultrasound modulation, measured by scanning the PMT and slit with the LED to focal zone distance (d) = 10 mm and the LED to PMT projection distance (D) = 113 mm. The light pattern peaks about the principal axis of the LED at the center of the optical window, is reasonably uniform over approximately 30 mm of travel, but it then decreases monotonically as the slit moves further from the center of the LED and optical window. The limited size of the optical window and the geometry of the LED reduce the extent of the projection of the light at the plane of the detector.

Resink [@pone.0104268-Resink1] has recently reviewed the mechanisms by which photons may be "tagged" by ultrasound, and in experiments using coherent laser excitation and a fluorophore in place of the LED we have observed robust tagging of the laser light causing AO modulation at the ultrasound frequency, as predicted. However, in the current system, the light from the LED is expected to have a coherence length much less than 100 µm [@pone.0104268-Karu1], and conventional theories of light tagging of such incoherent light do not readily translate to this situation. Moreover, the observed AOM signal pattern clearly arises from the passage of light through

INSPIRATIONS

From a very young age as a child, Tarek has been fond of writing.

“The sheer capacity to put my thoughts down into words fascinated me and has always been a drive, I believe I have a story to tell and that I hope it will bring readers some sort of joy in reading my work.” - Tarek Refaat

CHALLENGES

‘Broken Shadows’ was a completely different genre to which he was not familiar so trying to find the right words and trying to find the right descriptions was quite a challenge for him.

QUOTES FROM THE BOOK

“Would he still love me if he were to know I’m a spy?” - this part of the story was quite important, how is it possible for a regular person to try to


to move on after his heart was broken fifteen years ago. In his mind, he has everything he could ever want or need at his fingertips. Until the moment Heidi makes a sudden reappearance in his life. It’s then everything around him changes. A chain reaction of events soon turns Nadim and Heidi’s lives upside-down. Forced to confront the turmoil brewing between them, they must put aside their differences if they are to survive another day. The choices they’ll have to make will define the outcome of the lives they lead. Will they be able to overcome their painful and chaotic past? Or will the pain and heartache consume them in the long run?

This invention relates to a socket for an electric part, provided with means for shifting contacts between a contact position and a release position.
2. Prior Art
The invention of Japanese Patent Application No. Hei 2-278461 published unexamined application No. Hei 4-154065, discloses a socket including a turnable lever engageable with contacts arranged in an array. In this socket, the contacts can be shifted, as a group, away from contact pieces arranged on an electric part by properly turning the turnable lever, in order to facilitate no-load-insertion of the electric part.
As shown in FIG. 8, however, the above conventional socket has the following problems. When the contacts 2 are repeatedly shifted by turning the lever 1 repeatedly, the contacts 2 are horizontally displaced along their engagement


impaired exercise capacity in a multivariate model, but with every percentage point increase in forced vital capacity probability of impaired exercise capacity diminished (OR: 0.944, CI: 0.933-0.955, p<0.001). There was a moderate correlation of forced vital capacity and peak oxygen uptake (r=0.464, p<0.001). After a follow-up of 2.1±1.6 years 21 patients had died. Survival was only related to age (p<0.001) and peak oxygen uptake (p<0.001) after considering together with thoracotomies, oxygen saturation at rest and forced vital capacity in a multivariate model. Independent of CHD complexity and other risk factors, multiple thoracotomies lead to restrictive lung pattern. It could be suggested that those limitations in forced vital capacity contribute to impairments in exercise capacity, which turned out to be the strongest predictor for survival.crystalline Si and it decreases with the increasing SiNW length from 0.5 to 1.5 μm (see spectra (3)--(5)). If we now compare sample (3) with (6) and (4) with (7) with the only difference that in (3) and (4) the SiNWs were everywhere on the surface, whereas in (6) and (7), they were only in confined areas, we see that the reflectance spectra are significantly lower in the case of SiNWs in confined areas compared to those in the case of SiNWs on large Si areas, despite the fact that in the case of confined areas 15% of surface coverage is bulk Si. This is attributed to two different effects: (a) As stated above, we have observed that under the same experimental conditions SiNWs in confined areas are

II.V. Electrical and Photoelectric Measurements of Solar Cells {#sec2.5}
--------------------------------------------------------------

The electrical and photoelectric characteristics of the three different devices studied in this work (solar cell 1 (reference), solar cell 2 (1 μm SiNWs, grid on SiNWs), and solar cell 3 (1 μm SiNWs, grid on bulk)) are depicted in [Figure [4](#fig4){ref-type="fig"}](#fig4){ref-type="fig"}a--d. [Figure [4](#fig4){ref-type="fig"}](#fig4){ref-type="fig"}a depicts the dark current density versus voltage curve for the above three cases, whereas (b) shows the photocurrent density versus voltage curve. The external and internal quantum efficiencies (EQE and IQE, respectively) versus wavelength are depicted in (c) and (d), respectively, for allfactor *n* of the diode) were calculated using the single-diode model, with the current--voltage (*I*--*V*) characteristics described bywhere *I*~s~ is the saturation current, *R*~s~ is the series resistance, *n* is the ideality factor of the diode, *K* is the Boltzmann constant, and *T* is the absolute temperature. *R*~s~ was calculated fromThe saturation current, *I*~s~, was calculated by fitting the *I*--*V* characteristics using the equation of the diode corrected to the series resistance.

[Table [1](#tbl1){ref-type="other"}](#tbl1){ref-type="other"} summarizes the electrical and photoelectric parameters of the three different solar cells studied in this work, including the saturation current density (*J*~s~; *I*~s~ normalized to the solar cell surface area), the series resistance (*R*~s~), the diode ideality factor (*n*), the short circuit current density (*J*~sc~), open circuit voltage (*V*~oc~), fill factor (FF), and photovoltaic efficiency


could thus partly explain the better FF in the case of the reference cell.

The short circuit current (*J*~sc~; see [Figure [4](#fig4){ref-type="fig"}](#fig4){ref-type="fig"}b and [Table [1](#tbl1){ref-type="other"}](#tbl1){ref-type="other"}) is much higher in the SiNW solar cells compared to that in the reference cell, the best case being that of the SiNWs in confined areas and grid on bulk. The factors that are expected to influence *J*~sc~ are the efficiency of light absorption in the cell, the defect-driven space charge recombination in the emitter as discussed above, and the existence of a high series resistance. Concerning the series resistance, the general comment in our study is that in all cases of our devices (see [Table [1](#tbl1){ref-type="other"}](#tbl1){ref-type="other"}) *R*~s~ was relatively small; thus, it is not expected to seriously affect *J*~sc~. The smallest *R*~s~ wasto differences in the series resistance, which was lower in the case of the reference cell compared to that in the other two cases and lower in solar cell 3 compared to that in solar cell 2. When *R*~s~ decreases, FF increases. However, the most important parameter influencing the fill factor of our solar cells is the ideality factor, *n*, of the cell. When the ideality factor increases, FF decreases. In [Table [1](#tbl1){ref-type="other"}](#tbl1){ref-type="other"}, it is clearly seen that changes in n are accordingly reflected to FF. Differences in the ideality factor may result from differences in the doping concentration of the emitter. In our SiNW solar cells, it is expected that the junction is mainly formed underneath the SiNWs, forming a continuous doped layer. The SiNWs themselves are

Want Healthcare Freedom or ObamaCare?

ObamaCare, which Governor Snyder is urgently trying to implement by creating the government-run insurance exchange, will complete the government takeover of healthcare in Michigan.

The House already passed the appropriations bill needed to start creating the structure for government-run healthcare, and the Senate is set to pass it this week.

It is critical that you call or email your State Senator and urge them to:

Vote no on appropriating federal bribe money to set up a healthcare exchange

Vote no on the Medicaid expansion

If we don't oppose this now, then Washington bureaucrats will take over every aspect of our health care - without having to worry about input from Michigan. The rules propagated by the Department of Health and Human Services state the following:

We report a 24-year-old male with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who developed influenza virus B-associated hemophagocytic syndrome and cardiac tamponade. Although the patient's general condition improved after steroid pulse therapy and pericardiocentesis, pericardial effusion re-accumulated. Colchicine and aspirin were administered, together with prednisolone, after which no further relapses occurred. This was a rare case of severe influenza-associated hemophagocytic syndrome and steroid-resistant pericardial effusion in an SLE patient.


When Alexander Hamilton was Secretary of Treasury he noted in a report on manufacturing that children "who would otherwise be idle could become a source of cheap labor". His advice was highly regarded by the business community. Child labor, as young as age 6, was widespread until the late 1930s. Almost 20% of children worked, often in unhealthy environments and performing dangerous jobs. Children between the ages of 6 to 16 years labored as many as 12 to 14 hours each day. In the southern textile industry during the early 20th century 20,000 of the 50,000 employed children were under the age of 12.

As a result of the efforts of progressive reform organizations and labor unions, some states adopted restrictions on child labor. The major advance was madeand even younger, are sewing clothes that are sold in Wal-Mart, J.C. Penny, and many other retail outlets in the United States. The work shift is 12 to 14 hours a day, often seven days a week. In Thailand, an Associated Press investigation found child and slave labor pealing shrimp which is then exported to American supermarkets including Whole Foods, Safeway, and Kroger. Although Thailand had been on a State Department blacklist, the country was never sanctioned.

Exports to the United States of products made by child labor are encouraged by this country's membership in the intergovernmental World Trade Organization (WT0), which was established in 1995. The WTO is the only global organization that deals with the rules of trade between nations. Over 160 countries are members, which covers

yeah I saw that over at


from the initial skin symptoms on day 22. The major difference from TAC was the apparent reduction in erythema/hemorrhage. These results suggest that FX results in improved skin symptoms through mast cell-independent mechanisms. For this reason, we focused on the analysis after five weeks of application where FX showed improvement in symptoms.

Early mast cell activities and scratching behavior seemed to be correlated. Mast cell differentiation is controlled by several master transcription factors \[[@B22-ijms-21-02180]\]. GATA2 mRNA was clearly detected in most mast cell lines, but GATA1 mRNA expression was inactivated in some types of mast cell lines and was expressed in mature mast cells \[[@B23-ijms-21-02180],[@B24-ijms-21-02180],[@B25-ijms-21-02180]\]. Thus, our data indicated that FX, like TAC, suppressed the mast cell differentiation processes in isolated of BMMCs ([Figure 2](#ijms-21-02180-f002){ref-type="fig"}D,E). There are two majorfingertip unit) as described previously \[[@B20-ijms-21-02180]\]. After five weeks, auricular lymph node dissection, blood, and skin were sampled for examination of gene expressions and histological analysis. TEWL of skin was measured at room temperature at 40% to 60% humidity with a Vavoscan AS-VT100RS (Asahi Biomed, Yokohama, Japan). A total clinical severity score for AD-like lesions was defined as the sum of the individual scores graded as 0 (none), 1 (mild), 2 (moderate) and 3 (severe) for each of five signs and symptoms (itch, erythema/hemorrhage, edema, excoriation/erosion and scaling/dryness) according to a slight modification of the criteria described previously \[[@B51-ijms-21-02180]\]. Assessment was performed by an investigator who was blind to the grouping of the animals. Five week-old male NC/Nga mice with no AD pathology showed a TEWL value of


to forward movement of the cell body. Thus, sperm locomotion depends on the integration of two independent forces associated with cytoskeletal assembly and disassembly at opposite ends of the lamellipodium.

Materials and Methods
=====================

Sperm Isolation and Activation
------------------------------

Males of *Ascaris suum* were collected from the intestines of infected hogs at the Lowell Packing Company. Worms were transported to the laboratory in phosphate-buffered saline containing 10 mM NaHCO~3~, pH 7, at 37°C, and maintained in this buffer for up to 1 d. Spermatids were isolated by draining the contents of the seminal vesicle into HKB buffer (50 mM Hepes, 65 mM KCl, and 10 mM NaHCO~3~, pH 7.1). The spherical spermatids were then treated with vas deferens extract, prepared according to [Sepsenwol et al. 1986](#Sepsenwoletal1986){ref-type="bib"}, to initiate lamellipodium formation and completion ofglass substrate at their cell body ([Fig. 2](#F2){ref-type="fig"}) indicated that lamellipodial extension is not sufficient for cell locomotion. In these cells, the lamellipodium continued to exert force against the cell body sufficient to distort its shape from hemispherical to elongate, but there was no stretching of the lamellipodium ([Fig. 2](#F2){ref-type="fig"}). In tethered cells, the leading edge underwent cycles of extension and retraction with no net advance, and yet cytoskeletal flow continued. In some cells, the lamellipodium lost its attachment and the entire cell was pulled toward the tether site. Others, like the sperm shown in [Fig. 2](#F2){ref-type="fig"}, broke the tether, after which the cell body recoiled toward the lamellipodium and regained its hemispherical shape as protrusion of the leading edge and locomotion resumed. By contrast, there was no


see also [Roberts and King 1991](#RobertsandKing1991){ref-type="bib"}). This effect was completely reversible. The pattern by which the cytoskeleton was rebuilt and locomotion resumed showed that cytoskeletal assembly and disassembly produce independent forces and that both are required for locomotion. When cells treated with pH 5.5 buffer ([Fig. 5](#F5){ref-type="fig"}, a and b) were washed with HKB buffer without acetate, fiber complexes began to form around the periphery of the lamellipodium ([Fig. 5](#F5){ref-type="fig"} c). This localized assembly resulted in formation of protrusions from the cell surface, but the cell body remained stationary. As these new fiber complexes continued to elongate, those emanating from the side of the lamellipodium reached the cell body and began depolymerization and treadmilling. In the cell shown in [Fig. 5](#F5){ref-type="fig"}, the fiber complexes on the right sideIf this is your first visit, be sure to

turn of the New Year. After drawing even with Chelsea on January 1, City won a grand total of four games and took 15 points over 12 matches. That’s 1.25 points per game — the 11th-best rate in the Premier League during that stretch. This poor run did include understandable losses to Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester United, but it was punctuated by defeats away to now-relegated Burnley and mid-table Crystal Palace. For almost a third of the season, City picked up the results of a bottom-half-of-the-table team.

Yet, that no-good run was only 12 games long; for the other 26, City were very, very good. On January 1, City weren’t only deadlocked in points with Chelsea; they were deadlocked in almost every category imaginable. They each had 14 wins,Plus, Navas is a true winger, so he stayed close to the sideline rather than drifting in-field. The presence of Navas meant City now attacked more down the right side than they had in the previous season — something they’re not necessarily equipped for — and it also meant the team was stretched whenever it lost the ball. That’s how you wind up creating fewer chances while exposing yourself to more.

Over the last six games of the year, Pellegrini made his move and fielded a team that included three true central midfielders every single week. Toure, Fernandinho, Fernando, and Frank Lampard all got major minutes, and the difference is clear. Not only are Milner and Silva stationed to the left and right of center (as opposed to being
