There has also been occasional talk about extending the Gold Line to Ontario. At this time, environmental studies would need to be completed and funding secured from San Bernardino County. Metro is an L.A. County agency.

What other connections can I make using Metro Rail?

The latest map — with the new Gold Line stations — is below.

Keep in mind that the Expo Line to Palms, West L.A. and Santa Monica opens on May 20. That’s pretty soonish and will be in time to enjoy Second Summer.

Three other projects are under construction:

•The Purple Line Extension that will take the subway to the Miracle Mile, downtown Beverly Hills, Century City and Westwood. The project is being built in three segments; the first to Wilshire/La Cienega is scheduled forcompletion in 2023.

•The Regional Connector project will tie together the Blue, Expo and Gold Lines with a 1.9-mile underground tunnel in DTLA. That will allow Gold Line riders from the Foothill Cities to ride directly to the heart of DTLA without having to transfer to the subway at Union Station.

•The Crenshaw/LAX Line will run between the Expo Line and the Green Line. It will include a station near LAX where riders will transfer to an airport train serving the LAX terminals. The Crenshaw/LAX Line is scheduled for completion in 2019. The city of L.A. is building the airport train and officials have said that could be done by 2023.

For example, the direction finding component 6 requires lead shielding and this makes the detector relatively heavy. This can be particularly important for a hand-held detector because the increased weight means it becomes less wieldy, especially if it is to be held for long periods. Furthermore, the direction finding component 6 takes up space in the detector housing. This means for a given characteristic size of detector, e.g., a size that can be comfortably hand held, there is less space available for the spectrometer component than there would be in a dedicated hand-held spectrometer. This can be a problem because the sensitivity of a scintillator-based spectrometer is closely tied to the volume of the scintillator material used. Accordingly, the limited space available for the spectrometer component 4 inand SPD (it was rejected by the Social Democrats).

He changed his name to Koch-Weser (after the river Weser) in 1927, to distinguish himself from another member of parliament whose name was also Erich Koch.

In 1928, Koch-Weser became Minister of Justice in the new government of Hermann Müller. He attempted a fundamental reform of criminal law, but as the Zentrum demanded the Justice department, Koch-Weser lost his position in April 1929.

In the summer of 1930, Koch-Weser merged the DDP with Artur Mahraun's Young German Order into the Deutsche Staatspartei, trying to gather what remained of the pro-republican, Protestant middle-class in a single political party. After the poor performance of his new party in the September 1930 election, Koch-Weser resigned from the Reichstag and from the leadership of the party.

any judgment rendered against Marathon will be reduced to the extent of the amount stated in the release. Marathon's complaint that the settlement between plaintiff and I & M was not entered in good faith is not supported by cases construing this provision of the Contribution Act.
A third-party plaintiff has the burden of proving that a third-party defendant's settlement agreement with a plaintiff was not in good faith. Perez v. Espinoza, 137 Ill.App.3d 762, 92 Ill.Dec. 377, 484 N.E. 2d 1232 (1st Dist.1985). Even if a plaintiff's cause of action against a third-party defendant could have been time barred at the time they entered into settlement, if the third-party defendant neglected to raise a statute of limitations defense, the third-party defendant's potential liability is sufficient consideration by plaintiffwhich should not off-set a judgment in an action based on common law negligence.
428 N.E.2d at 178 (citations omitted).
Marathon's unsupported claim that a waiver of a worker's compensation lien should operate as a set-off benefitting a joint tortfeasor even though actual payment of a worker's compensation claim would not be a set-off raises a false distinction and does violence to the policies served by the Contribution Act.
Since the Contribution Act was enacted on September 14, 1979, no Illinois court has directly confronted the issue of a non-employer defendant setting-off the compensation lien of an employer-tortfeasor who settled. Nevertheless, the Illinois Appellate Court for the First District impliedly addressed the issue in Doellman v. Warner *556 & Swasey Co., 147 Ill.App.3d 842, 101 Ill. Dec. 366, 498 N.E.2d 690

[Information value of light scattering parameters in cell study (a review of the literature)].
Different methods of light scattering measurements for cell suspension and cells in flow are reviewed. The intensity of light scattered at different angles suggests information about the cell size, the nucleus to cell diameter ratio, the thickness of surface membrane, the changes in the internal cell structure state, and about the heterogeneity of cell population. The efficiency of information obtained from the turbidity measurements depends on the geometry of the spectrophotometer. Measurements made with diaphragms allow us to get information about the mean size of biological particles, their form, refractive index, concentration etc. The main advantages of light scattering methods are their high sensitivity, a possibility to use the same species before and after therace model curve with time on the *x*-axis and quantiles on the *y*-axis. This is representative of sensory integration at earlier response latencies as this is when the integration of unisensory inputs is expected to fulfill the multisensory response criterion, before either unisensory input is independently processed (Miller, [@B20]; Ulrich et al., [@B33]). In other words, the response to the multisensory condition is faster than what the race model predicts. This results in behavioral gains through faster responses and is known as the redundant signals effect (RSE; Ulrich et al., [@B33]).

All calculations and tests of the race model were performed using the MATLAB™ (Natick, MA, USA) script provided by Ulrich et al. ([@B33]). It should be noted that failure to violate the race model does not necessarily mean


that sensory conditions did not interact when presented synchronously; it simply means that the response facilitation that occurred can be described and predicted based on probability summation of the two unisensory conditions (Brandwein et al., [@B4]). Race model violation was assessed for both the ADHD and neurotypical control groups, using paired samples *t*-tests to compare the multisensory and race model scores at probability quantiles ranging from 0.05% to 0.95% in 10% increments. Significant (*p* ≤ 0.05) deviations for each response quantile were identified (Laurienti et al., [@B16]; Farid et al., [@B12]).

### ERPs {#s2-5-3}

All ERP processing was done offline using ASA (Netherlands), Matlab™ (Natick, MA, USA), and SPSS^®^ (Armonk, New York, NY, USA) software. As has been done in the previous literature (Giard and Peronnet, [@B15]; Molholm et al.,conditions (see [Figure 2](#F2){ref-type="fig"}). Although there is a trend toward those with ADHD to respond faster to each stimulus type (308 ms vs. 327 ms; 243 ms vs. 262 ms; 236 ms vs. 255 ms) compared to their neurotypical counterparts, a significant group effect was not reached (*F*~(1,19)~ = 2.709; *p* = 0.116; partial *η*^2^ = 0.125). There was no group by stimulus condition interaction (*F* = 0.021).

in adults with ADHD and combined behavioral and neurophysiological measures. Based on methodology from previous literature assessing MSI, we found that specific patterns of MSI were apparent. MSI was found to have occurred in both study groups, however, there were some differences in how that activity occurred in each group (i.e., the patterns of MSI were not exactly the same). In particular, MSI occurred in both groups over central parietal regions from 100 to 140 ms. The parietal region is often discussed as being a sensory integration site (Brandwein et al., [@B4]), therefore, the results found here are similar to previous literature assessing MSI. Similarly, slightly left oriented multisensory processing was apparent over parietal-occipital electrodes; this is a similar left-lateralized pattern that has previously been identified in AVmaximal multisensory activity, there were also obvious differences in brain activity between the two groups in the amplitude and latencies of specific ERPs, which should be explored in future work. Additionally, we intentionally had participants maintain their usual medication regime, in order to reflect the state in which they function during their daily activities. Future work should compare individuals with ADHD in both medicated and non-medicated states.

A potential limitation of this study was the choice to test participants with ADHD while continuing their regular medication regime. This was done intentionally, in order to test adults with ADHD similarly to how they would function on a typical day, which includes taking medication pertaining to their ADHD. This allows for a clearer understanding of how these participants may react within

Perhaps the most single problem being experienced in the electronics industry at the present time is the effect of contamination during the manufacture of microcircuit devices, such as chips and wafers. As these devices become more complex, and smaller in dimension, sensitivity to the presence of contaminants becomes more of a problem and to the extent wherein acceptable quality of product cannot be achieved, such contaminants, in the form of solid particles, can open or short circuit, affect photolithographic reproduction, alter electrical properties and even damage the


is great at spotting signs in Goa, where he lives, and makes lists of places he thinks I should visit. Mapusa Market was one of them. What really attracted me to this sign were the colours. Blue and beige is not a combination you often see on hand-painted signs. Its slight italic angle, relaxed serif letters and tight spacing made me a fan.”

“D”

The neon sign on MG Road was spotted by the typographer on a trip Bengaluru years ago. “Hand-painted signs are easy to see as handmade, but so many people don’t realise that neon signs are handmade too. A person heats and bends a glass tube into the shape of the letter.” For Saxena, the neon signs are a combination of history, chemistry, pop culture and design.to Eros Cinema, there are so many gems to see. This particular ‘E’ was tall and with two bars in the middle, instead of one. It is hard to miss.”

“H”

“I found this ‘H’ as part of my research for a lettering walk in Kashmere Gate in Delhi,” said Saxena, who conducts lettering walks in the Paharaganj area. “I had visited the cemeteries in this area years ago as a college student, and remembered that there was some beautiful tombstones. This letter is from a tombstone that would have been erected around 1823 – it is one of the oldest I have found in the cemetery.”

“I”

While in Bengaluru, finding it difficult to explain to cab drivers where exactly she wanted to go, Saxena would end up exploring places on

Also, how a sign maker tackles the complexity of Indian scripts can be inspiring.”not be treated this way," he said. “A prime minister elected by the people has been executed by the unions and the factional warlords. The style of the NSW Labor mafia has been in evidence over the last 24 hours."

Mr Abbott positioned the Coalition as a source of stability amid the Labor turmoil. “I can offer the Australian people a united, a stable and experienced team in a way that Labor plainly can’t," he said.

The way the change in the Labor leadership came about would influence voters, he added.

“I think a lot of people watching the ugly assassination which has taken place today will be very disillusioned with the Labor Party," he said.

Q:

"for loop" for ValueCollection

Is there a way to iterate ValueCollection using straight for loop? (not foreach)
e.g.
Dictionary<string, List<long>>.ValueCollection somevalues = somecollection.Value.Values;

for(int i = 0; i< somevalues.Count; i++)
{
 //now what?
}

A:

No - there's no indexer or anything similar for ValueCollection. I suppose you could use:
for (int i = 0; i < someValues.Count; i++)
{
    var item = someValues.ElementAt(i);
    ...
}

but that would perform like a dog :) (Just iteration would be O(n^2), as it would be like Schlemiel the Painter.)
Why do you want to do this? If you want items with elements, just keep a counter or use the overload of Select that passes in the index as well as the item.

A:

You don't have to use an index in a for loop...

studies with labeled jasmonates and the chemical analysis of maize xylem sap might help to understand the complete nature of the signals that mediates terpene biosynthesis in this species.

Conclusions
===========

Our study showed that herbivore-induced sesquiterpene formation in maize is restricted to the wounding site and distal leaf parts. The resulting volatile gradient between the leaf tip and the site of damage might aid herbivore enemies in host or prey finding. Since the signal mediating this reaction is directed to the leaf tip and cannot across the midrib, it is likely connected to the xylem.

I was thinking about socket based communication but I don't see how is this useful in my case (some hints, maybe?
Thank you

A:

You want inter-process communication. Sockets are the first thing that comes to mind; you'd need to set up a socket to listen for a connection (on the same machine) in PHP and set up a socket to connect to the listening socket in Python and send it its status.
Have a look at this socket programming overview from the Python documentation and the Python socket module's documentation (especially the examples at the end). I'm sure PHP has similar resources.

the utility of this interrelation lies in formulating the geometrical structure of Lie groups in terms of a Hopf structure [@Hopf]. The point is that during the last two decades generic methods have been discovered for continuously deforming matrix groups and Lie algebras within the category of Hopf algebras. This development finally led to the arrival of quantum groups and quantum spaces [@Ku83; @Wor87; @Dri85; @Jim85; @Drin86; @RFT90; @Tak90].

From a physical point of view the most realistic and interesting deformations are given by q-deformed versions of Minkowski space and Euclidean spaces as well as their corresponding symmetries, i.e. respectively Lorentz symmetry and rotational symmetry [@CSSW90; @PW90; @SWZ91; @Maj91; @LWW97]. Further studies even allowed to establish differential calculi on these q-deformed quantum spaces [@WZ91; @CSW91; @Song92; @OSWZ92] representing nothing\label{StarDef}%$$ being tantamount to$$f\circledast g\equiv\mathcal{W}^{-1}\left(  \mathcal{W}\left(  f\right)
\cdot\mathcal{W}\left(  g\right)  \right)  ,$$ where $f$ and $g$ are formal power series in $\mathcal{A}$. In the case of the Manin plane, the star product is of the well-known form$$\begin{aligned}
&  f(x^{i})\circledast g(x^{j})=q^{-\hat{n}_{x^{2}}\hat{n}_{y^{1}}}\left.
\left[  f(x^{i})\,g(y^{j})\right]  \right\vert _{y\rightarrow x}\nonumber\\
&  =f(x^{i})\,g(x^{j})+O(h),\quad\text{with\textsf{\quad}}q=e^{h},
\label{Star2-dimN}%\end{aligned}$$ where we have introduced the operators$$\hat{n}_{x^{i}}\equiv x^{i}\frac{\partial}{\partial x^{i}},\quad i=1,2.$$ From the last equality in (\[Star2-dimN\]) we see that star products on quantum spaces lead to modifications of commutative products. Evidently, these modifications vanish in the classical limit $q$ $\rightarrow$ $1$.

Next, we would like to deal with tensor products of quantum spaces. To this end, we have to specify the commutation relations between generators of distinct quantum spaces. These relations are determined by the requirement of being invariant


mention that the functions $\delta_{A}^{n}%
(\ominus_{B}\,x^{i})$ give equally good delta functions, as they satisfy $$\begin{aligned}
\int\nolimits_{-\infty}^{+\infty}d_{A}^{n}x\,g(x^{i})\overset{x}{\circledast
}\delta_{B}^{n}(\ominus_{C}\,x^{j})  &  =g(0)\,\text{vol}_{A,B}\times%
\begin{cases}
(\kappa_{C})^{n} & \text{if }B\in\{R,\bar{R}\},\\
(\kappa_{C})^{-n} & \text{if }B\in\{L,\bar{L}\},
\end{cases}
\nonumber\\[0.1in]
\int\nolimits_{-\infty}^{+\infty}d_{A}^{n}x\,\delta_{B}^{n}(\ominus_{C}%
\,x^{j})\overset{x}{\circledast}g(x^{i})  &  =g(0)\,\text{vol}_{A,B}\times%
\begin{cases}
(\kappa_{C})^{n} & \text{if }B\in\{L,\bar{L}\},\\
(\kappa_{C})^{-n} & \text{if }B\in\{R,\bar{R}\}.
\end{cases}
\label{DeltAnt}%\end{aligned}$$ The above relations are needed to check the identities in (\[InvFourAnf1a\]) and (\[InvFourAnf1b\]). For a proof of the relations in (\[DeltAnt\]) we refer the reader to Appendix \[Proofs\].

Now, we have everything together to prove the identities in (\[InvFourAnf2a\])-(\[InvFourAnf1b\]). In this section we give a proof of the relations in (\[InvFourAnf2a\]) and (\[InvFourAnf2b\]), only. To check the relations in (\[InvFourAnf1a\]) and (\[InvFourAnf1b\]) is a little bit harder. Thus, the corresponding proof is presented in Appendix \[Proofs\]. Again, it suffices to restrict attention to one type of Fourier transformations, since our considerations carry over to the otherdefinition of the sesquilinear form. For the second equality we apply the first relation in (\[VeralDelt1\]). Then we rewrite the q-deformed delta function by using its definition in (\[DefDelt2\]). After that we use the addition law for q-deformed exponentials. For the fifth step we rewrite our expression in a way that displays in which tensor factors the various objects live. Notice that the braided antipodes $S$ and $\bar{S}^{-1}$ represent the operations $\ominus_{L}$ and $\ominus_{\bar{R}}$, respectively. In the sixth step we rearrange these tensor factors by taking into account their braiding. This step follows most easily from diagrammatic considerations (see for example Ref. [@Maj93-Int]). Then we extend the operation of conjugation in a way that it affects the second factor of the star product on momentum space. To reach this goal


we apply the conjugation properties of q-integrals, q-exponentials, antipodes, and braiding mappings (for their discussion see Ref. [@qAn]). The eighth equality is again rearranging of tensor factors in a way that allows us to identify the defining expressions for q-deformed Fourier transformations.

Next, we turn our attention to the other versions of Fourier-Plancherel identities. The second identity in (\[FPId1\]) follows from the very same reasonings as the first one. The identities in (\[FPId2\]) can be checked most easily by applying the operation of conjugation to the relations in (\[FPId1\]):$$\begin{aligned}
&  \,\big \langle f,g\big \rangle_{L,x}^{\prime}=(-1)^{n}%
\,\big \langle\mathcal{F}_{L}(f),\mathcal{F}_{\bar{R}}^{\ast}(g)(\kappa
^{-1}p^{i})\big \rangle_{\bar{R},p}^{\prime}\nonumber\\

====================

Let us end with some comments on what we have done so far. In this article we dealt with Fourier transformations and sesquilinear forms on q-deformed quantum spaces. This way, we laid the foundations for a q-deformed version of quantum kinematics suitable to describe free particles on q-deformed quantum spaces. In Part II these results will be applied to wave functions on position and momentum space.

At this point let us also mention that our reasonings are rather similar to the classical situation. However, we have to be


My good friend Jasper Wong (host of our Small Victories show in Hong Kong) is at it again! He has organized a wonderful event called Pow Wow in Oahu, Hawaii and I get to fly out there and be a part of it!

Jasper and I will be joining international artists Will Barras (London), Meggs (Melbourne), Wu Yue (Paris), and 123Klan (Montreal), as well as local artists Prime, Ekundayo, and Kamea Hadar.

The artists will be painting a venue called Loft in Space from February 16 to 19 and during this time the public is encouraged to come and interact with the artists while they work! The show will open the evening of February 19 with a huge celebration.

Following the event, a selection of the artists will develop graphics based"Feeling Beachy" has amazing views from the top deck.....the gorgeous tree covered beach path is just steps from the house to the beach. There you can watch the ships and dolphins as the slowly move down the coast. Inside, share wonderful meals in your FULLY stocked kitchen. There is also an extra room with a bunk set, great for the kids. This beach home is comfortable for everyone and boasts an elevator to reach every floor. Welcome home!


white petals, was fenced in by islanders after rumours began to circulate of its healing properties and people sought to take cuttings.

Experts nicknamed it "the Living Dead" after accepting that it could not regenerate naturally, probably due to a defect in the species. But the saga took on a new twist in 1996 when tiny samples of the plant, a member of the coffee family and also known as Ramosmania rodriguesii, were flown to Kew.

A team at the gardens in south-west London began to turn back the onset of nature, by painstakingly cultivating 35 in the nursery under highly-controlled conditions, a feat requiring great skill and tremendous patience.

The results exceeded expectations and now Kew has returned 11 cuttings to Mauritius where they are being cultivated in greenhouses whilevalue comes from its decentralized nature and its ability to act as both an uncorrelated asset and as a currency.

Will BTC’s Intrinsic Value Increase as Global Economy Destabilizes?

Importantly, the aforementioned benefits of Bitcoin are largely based on a global paradigm shift towards decentralization that has been occurring in recent history, and the destabilization of the global economy due to massive government-owned debts and large inflation rates for fiat currencies.

Pomp, a partner at Morgan Creek Digital, recently spoke about this in a recent tweet, pointing to the ECB’s interest rate cuts as evidence of a gradually destabilizing economy.

“ROCKET FUEL: They’re going to cut rates and print money right as we march towards the Bitcoin halving. Buckle up. This will be wild,” he explained.

Differential effects of low dose CP122,288 and eletriptan on fos expression due to stimulation of the superior sagittal sinus in cat.
CP122,288, a conformationally restricted analogue of sumatriptan, is a highly potent inhibitor of neurogenic plasma protein extravasation (PPE) in rat and guinea pig at low doses where it has no 5HT1B-mediated vascular actions. We have examined its effect on a model of trigeminovascular nociception to assess the relative importance of vasoconstrictor and serotonin (5HT)(1B/1D) agonist activity to the modulation trigeminal neuronal activation. For comparison to activate relevant 5HT receptors, the clinically effective relatively lipophilic 5HT(1B/1D) agonist eletriptan was studied in parallel. The superior sagittal sinus was isolated in the alpha-chloralose (60 mg/kg, i.p. and 15-20 mg/kg i.v. supplement every 2 h) anaesthetized cat. Animals were prepared for stimulationseason. He finished with a team-high 124 yards on 10 carries in last week’s win, while Whitfield scored a team-best three touchdowns.

“I think A.J. has done a great job at quarterback, being able to distribute the ball,” Ballard said. “We run the triple-option and I feel like those guys are doing very well.

“We are a team offense; we don’t really know who is going to carry the ball. A lot of it depends on the defense and what they’re giving us.”

The backfield also includes the likes of Shawn Greer (63 yards last week), Will Flowers, Maurice Sutton, Sam Turner and Coley Loudermilk, all of whom have rushing touchdowns this season.

“Coach Ballard puts us in there and moves us around,” Whitfield said. “That is what our offense is designed


3.2.0.3 if I'm not mistaken.

You're a genius man! I can't thank you enough!I'm posting this from my eeePC!While I waited for your answer the installation process resumed after about half an hour -- don't ask me why!I rebooted, found a new entry at the top of GRUB with 3.2.0.3.And here I am!

Note: with Update Pack 5 comes the "mint-debian-mirrors" tool: it will test and suggest you a repository mirror the best suited for you, so "debian.linuxmint.com" (which is in the USA) may be replaced by another one (actual mirrors are located in France and Sweden, maybe faster for you). That's perfectly normal, don't panic if your sources.list gets modified after this

If your networking is ok right now, let's keep the interfaces file like this, doesn't matter since Network-Manageris the one in control.

Ok, now you can use Synaptic (package manager, in menu) to search and work with the packages.- look for "gstreamer0.10-plugins-really-bad", if it's installed, remove it- click on the "refresh" button to update the list- look for "mint-meta-debian-mate" and "mint-meta-codecs", if they're not installed, select them for installation and click on the "apply" button

Once done, exit Synaptic, and open up the MintUpdate (the tool you're showing in the screenshot)- click on "refresh"- if there is anything, click on "install updates"- well, install until there is nothing more listed to install

Once done, exit and reboot.

Let's hope that if you installed packages from Debian testing (since you got Debian security and Multimedia in the sources), they don't mess up your system. Anyway this will get corrected when

Cindy Rifenburg and Marcus Weber of Danielsville are served breakfast Saturday, the final day of business for Bill's Lunch in Coplay. They received special treatment from Balliet's daughters Tammy, left, and Renee and former server Scott Nagy.

It was the 32nd anniversary, to the day, of its opening Aug. 4, 1979. Over the years, the Balliets and daughters Renee and Tammy served countless patrons, many of whom came to be seen as part of the family.

many charities is often also regurgitated in racist advertisements.

Instead of disrupting dangerous, one-dimensional stereotypes about the Global South, these advertisements tend to reinforce them.

Often to a soundtrack akin to “In the Arms of an Angel,” these commercials regularly feature a white savior narrating the non-contextualized horrors of poverty afflicting a given community in a nameless, faraway, and supposedly war-torn land.

Such advertisements regularly depict foreign people of color sitting languid; they’re rarely seen working, studying, or creatively engaging with others. And they rarely speak. The white savior speaks for them.

Consequently, this marketing “justifies” non-collaborative humanitarianism because it depicts low-income communities as unable to speak and make decisions for themselves.

It suggests that outside “experts” know better what a local community needs, rather than the local community itself.

For years, many inWell, first you need to reject your own beliefs and worldview and accept the Bible.”

Supremacist in nature, these conditions are incredibly problematic because they prohibit poor communities from managing the resources intended for them.

Plus, these conditions often attempt to alter indigenous values and practices.

The idea of humanitarianism – particularly humanitarianism from places like Europe and North America directed at places in the Global South – is regularly an imperialist value judgment.

Especially when it takes the form of international missionary work, for example, charities impose their cultural and religious values upon vulnerable communities. Essentially, these charity workers leverage dire economic needs against their desire to spread a certain, often foreign, message.

But perhaps even more egregious, these conditions for accessing assistance are attempts to profit off of someone else’s poverty!

as an office for the company. In later years it was used as a beauty shop, sandwich shop and ice cream stand.

In the spring of 1955 we changed the store into a self-service except for the meat counter. It is the same today.

In the spring of 1957 we cut out a wall and made the front right room part of the store

May 1973- We added a new room on the east side which is 24 x 36 feet

January 1978- Old shelving torn out. Crew from Spartan Store Development and Non-foods came and set up shelving.

Bud was in the store since September, 1953 and Skip since November, 1954.I got to thinking about the shockwave that occurs upon firing and I'm under the impression that it's about 18,000 fps. So I measure the barrels on my 22 3/8" .204, 16" .223 AR15, and 20" on my .243. I subtracted a cartridge length from each, divided that length by the fps I get from those loads, and deterimined the amount of time each bullet is in the barrel. Then I divided that length by 18,000 fps to determine one trip in the barrel. When I divide the shockwave time into the time the bullet spends in the barrel, I came up the the amount of times it would go back and force until the bullet exited the muzzle and found the following:

22 3/8" .204 Ruger - 6.64


muzzle. 1.1 milliseconds is what barrel time is for a whole bunch of rifle cartridges. And for handgun barrels, it's a whole lot shorter and if it's a revolver, how to you figure in the cylinder's effect?

Personally, I don't believe all this "shock wave" and "velocity timing" to get a given bullet to leave at some exact place in the muzzle's angle during barrel whip or diameter from shock wave expansion/contraction. Not when the same load's shot very accurate in all sorts of barrels; short skinny stiff ones as well as long thick whippy ones.

The barrel vibrations are a infinitesimal factor in the accuracy of a handgun. Virtually every other conceivable factor dwarfs the barrels vibrations into irrelevance.

VarmintAl has a very detailed analysis of barrel vibrations. He certainlyme like I was a moron. I never duplicated that first bowling date's success. Again, 34-year-old me would have known something like this in advance.

I couldn't ever own a gun because it would totally torture me.

I think that's it. The weird thing is that I've spotted Conan O'Brien THREE times, and one of those times was the day I got engaged. And the third time it freaked me out because he looked straight at me and for a second I thought that he thought that I was tailing him. I mean, this was the third time he'd seen me. Maybe I was a crazed stalker hellbent on taking down Conan and his family. And I really didn't want Conan to think that, since I'd shit hot knives to work for him or something.

are all somewhat based on this fact. In [Figure 5](#fig5){ref-type="fig"}, histogram of the contrast-stretched gray image presents a triple-modal, respectively, representing white blood cell nucleus, red blood cell (cytoplasm), and background. After GCS, background now has a certain contrast with other components in the image, so it is feasible to extract it through single-threshold (marked as Thresh1 in [Figure 5](#fig5){ref-type="fig"}) method. However, as it has been stated in Introduction, it is still difficult to separate the whole white blood cell (both nucleus and cytoplasm included) from the image in that cytoplasm has a similar gray intensity with red blood cells. So the first stage of our method is to extract the image background shown in black in [Figure 5(c)](#fig5){ref-type="fig"}.

Dispersibility and mixability of psyllium husk in aqueous solutions have been shown to be improved by utilizing higher levels of sugar, and by coating the husk with materials such as maltodextrin.
Once dispersed in the aqueous solution, the psyllium husk begins to gel with an accompanying increase in the viscosity of the drink solution. Typically, the consumer of the psyllium husk suspension drinks the liquid suspension in a relatively short period of time (less than about two minutes) in order to avoid having to drink an aesthetically unacceptable high viscosity liquid (i.e., the solution is considered too thick to enjoy drinking or difficult to drink). By reducing the psyllium husk particle size it is possible to eliminate the gritty texture


of the psyllium husk yet maintain efficacy. However, the smaller the particle size of the psyllium husk, the more the rapid gellation rate is a consumer noticeable concern.
It is possible in one way to control the rate of gellation by using acids to reduce the pH of the drink mix solution. However, typical acids can impart too strong a flavor (e.g., a sour or bitter flavor, especially at higher levels which may be desired to maximize the reduction in gellation rate) to the solution, and this must be consistent with the flavor system being used. Obviously, such an acidic medium is not suitable for flavor systems which require neutral or basic conditions. Also, except in certain controlled circumstances, acids are not suited for use in unflavored systems.

Boasting a similar 2D aesthetic, Spellbound is described as a "wizard-school sim" and is a concept that has instant, universal appeal.

Bailey’s squad came under attack near the French-German border in 1945. And Army doctors didn’t believe Bailey’s story that, as a Tlingit, he was the only survivor of an attack in which all the white members of his squad died. The Army concluded his injuries were either accidental or self-inflicted, and discharged him without acknowledging his service in combat. He was denied the Purple Heart he had earned.

His widow, Doris, said he was never bitter about it – he just wasn’t that kind of person.

“But he was hurt, deeply hurt and offended, at not being believed,” Doris Bailey said of her husband. “And so many years had passed that he had become resigned to the whole thing,and he just simply didn’t talk about it. Ever.”

In 1995, that changed, when then-Secretary of Defense William Cohen flew to Alaska and presented Bailey with the medals he’d earned. Doris Bailey says after that acknowledgment, her husband became active in the VFW, talked more about his experiences, and even got in better touch with his Tlingit heritage.

Community celebrations
A brand-new totem pole marked the close of a yearlong centennial celebration for Sitka National Historical Park.

“This artform has been evolving since the beginning,” said master carver Tommy Joseph, the pole’s designer. “This is another part of that. It’s always been evolving. It’s not a dead, stagnant art form. It’s part of our culture that’s alive and going forward.”

A Sitka fisherman was named Highliner of the year by National Fisherman magazine.


Japan set off alerts here and across the Pacific rim. The wave that showed up was minor, and Sitka and the rest of Alaska escaped unscathed. And, of course, some of us were jolted, if only for a few seconds, by a small earthquake that rattled Sitka in November.

In this paper is described the competition and transition between hydrogen bonding and protonation of alkynes connected, on one side, to various aromatic rings and to chiral amino ester appendages on the other side. While the first mode of activation induced the cyclization into pyrrolidines, the protonation of the alkyne led preferentially to tetrahydropyridines due to the higher level of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) of the considered arylogous ynolethers and ynamines. The transition between H-bonding and protonation was observed with the alkyne substituted with 2-methoxyphenyl, for which the cyclization delivered either five- or six-membered rings depending on the temperature of the experiment. From there, the cyclization of dialkoxy-

Ubiquitination of BCL6 has been reported to affect its transcriptional repressor activity \[[@R35], [@R43], [@R44]\]. We investigated whether the interaction between BCL6 and IL-32α regulates BCL6 ubiquitination. We cotransfected HEK293 cells with BCL6 and ubiquitin along with IL-32α or empty vector and treated the cells with PMA for various times. Whole cell lysates were immunoprecipitated with anti-flag antibody to pull down BCL6. As shown in Figs. [4A, and 4C](#F4){ref-type="fig"}, IL-32α had no effect on BCL6 protein expression. However, PMA treatment did induce BCL6 ubiquitination in IL-32α expressing cells, compared to empty vector cells (Fig. [4A](#F4){ref-type="fig"}). BCL6 ubiquitination was suppressed by Gö6850 (Fig. [4C](#F4){ref-type="fig"}). These data indicate that IL-32α induces ubiquitination of BCL6 with PMA activation of PKC.

interaction between IL-32α and target proteins suggested that an immune response regulated the effect, although the specific receptors and a detailed mechanism remained unclear. Our work demonstrates a role for IL-32α as an intracellular modulator in monocytes by acting as an inhibitor of a potent transcriptional regulator, BCL6.

MATERIALS AND METHODS {#s4}
=====================

Reagents and cell culture {#s4_1}
-------------------------

Human promyelomonocytic THP-1 and human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cells were purchased from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, Rockville, MD). THP-1 cells were grown in RPMI 1640 (WelGENE, Daegu, Korea) supplemented with 2 mM [l]{.smallcaps}-glutamine, 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin, and 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Hyclone, Logan, UT). HEK293 cells were grown in Dulbecco\'s modified Eagle\'s medium (DMEM) (Invitrogen, Seoul, Korea) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Hyclone Laboratories, Logan, UT). Phorbolimage registered when the probe shown in (**a**) established contact with ileum mucosa at a repulsive force of 10 nN. **(c)** Representative SEM image of the 15 µm colloidal probes used in the study. (**d)** Optical image registered when, while approaching ileum mucosa with the probe shown in (**c**), the signal registered by the PSD dropped to zero.

A representative force vs. sample displacement measurement i.e., plot of the interaction force for consecutive approach and withdrawal displacements, obtained on ileum mucosa in PBS pH 7.4 is shown in Fig. [3](#Fig3){ref-type="fig"}. Two features of the force during approach are worth to mention. First, the presence of a long range attractive force which is felt by the probe hundreds of µm far from the repulsive contact with the mucosal surface. Electrostatic forces at


JKR model are also shown in Fig. [4a](#Fig4){ref-type="fig"} for the two plotted force measurements. The corresponding E distributions obtained for all (a total of five in this work) investigated specimens at both pH values are shown in Fig. [5](#Fig5){ref-type="fig"}. E median values at pH 7.4 laid within the range 11--163 Pa for all the studied specimens. In all cases, lowering the ambient pH to 2 led to an increase in the E median values by a factor between 1.2 and 4.7, a difference that was significant (p \< 0.1) for four out of five specimens.Figure 4Representative force measurements on ileum mucosa at different pH values. (**a)** Approach force measurements obtained in PBS pH 7.4 (blue) and pH 2 (red). Fits of the contact region to the JKR model (Eq. [3](#Equ3){ref-type=""}) and of the non-contactcompared to those reported from AFM experiments on cells which are typically of the order of kPa^[@CR31]^. Moreover, force measurements on mucosa ileum samples where the mucus blankets were completely removed resulted in Young moduli in the 14--22 kPa range (Supplementary Information, Section [1](#MOESM1){ref-type="media"}). This indicates that in our experiments the main contribution to the measured stiffness came from the mucus blankets which completely covered the samples (Fig. [1](#Fig1){ref-type="fig"}). From a practical aspect, the fact that the presence of mucus blankets led to a decrease between two and three orders of magnitude of the effective Young modulus of the ileum indicates that the energy resulting from mechanical insults will be primarily absorbed by the mucus blankets, protecting in this way the underlying fragile epithelium.

We also showed that the presented methodology can


the underlying epithelium from such a harsh environment. Interestingly, SEM imaging also revealed a higher lateral in-homogeneity for the structure of mucus exposed to an acidic environment (Fig. [1](#Fig1){ref-type="fig"}). Force spectroscopy data suggests that this is not only an artifact of the sample preparation procedure required for SEM imaging. Indeed, the distribution of measured Young modulus values were significantly broader when probed under acidic conditions (Fig. [5](#Fig5){ref-type="fig"}). As force measurements were always obtained on different lateral positions, this supports that exposure to an acidic environment leads to more laterally inhomogeneous mucus blankets.

Decreasing the pH did not only lead to stiffer but to less adhesive mucus blankets as well i.e., the adhesion energy per unit area decreased by a factor between 3.4 and 12.8 when lowering the pH from 7.4 to2. Both results agree with mechanisms reported from *in-vitro* experiments on mucin gels, where a decrease in pH led to an increase in viscosity^[@CR11],\ [@CR12],\ [@CR37]^ and aggregation^[@CR38]^. Mucin films at solid-liquid interfaces also become more compact at low pH values^[@CR18]^. This transition is driven by i) the reduction of electrostatic repulsion between the anionic moieties of the mucin molecules (mostly sialic acids) which in turn ii) allows the interaction and subsequent aggregation of their hydrophobic residues. This scheme explains the higher stiffness that we observed at low pH. It also explains the lower adhesiveness. Most likely the silica micro-particles did not adhere to the oligosaccharide chains of the mucins because both being highly hydrophilic and of similar isoelectric point. Thus, adhesion was probably a consequence of the

The Partial Duplication & Partial Redistribution (PDPR) feature on Teradata 14 (and above) helps to reduce this issue, but will not always be able to detect all possible applications (for example, if statistics are not revealing the skewed values).

If you are stuck on a version below Teradata 14, you will not have PDPR available at all. A technical trick comes into play: Skew reduction with the RANDOM() function.

A typically DLL circuit generates a delayed clock signal from a reference clock signal, with the delayed clock signal typically being used as a reference signal for operation of devices. A typically DLL circuit uses a phase comparator to compare the phase of the reference clock signal with that of the delayed clock signal, and feeds back the comparison result to a delay controller that varies the delay of the delayed clock signal.

 lung metastasis who, presumably, had also received TRT, with a median OS of 12.0 months. Moreover, we found that the survival benefit of RT was conditioned upon chemotherapy (*P*~interaction~\<0.01). Therefore, modern studies generally supported the usefulness of consolidative TRT after chemotherapy in the treatment of ED-SCLC patients.

For stage IV NSCLC, local control of the primary tumor could reduce pulmonary symptoms, the intrathoracic disease burden, and bronchial/vascular compression, all of which are associated with better OS.[@b15-cmar-10-6525]--[@b17-cmar-10-6525] The control of metastatic tumors for stage IV NSCLC has also been found to be related to better survival for NSCLC patients with one to five metastases, metachronous or synchronous metastases.[@b17-cmar-10-6525],[@b28-cmar-10-6525]--[@b30-cmar-10-6525] Similarly, we expect that controlling both primary and metastatic tumors may also prolong the survival of ED-SCLC patients.

find suitable patients for RT. Because RT was mostly used in the palliation of thoracic lesions for ED-SCLC, the doses used were also usually palliative. It was also indicated[@b6-cmar-10-6525] and suggested[@b3-cmar-10-6525],[@b32-cmar-10-6525] that a higher TRT dose was associated with better survival for ED-SCLC. High-dose radiation was found to be safe even in the 2D-RT era.[@b5-cmar-10-6525] Modern RT techniques such as IMRT and stereotactic ablative RT have reduced the radiation to the normal tissues and increased the doses to tumors.[@b33-cmar-10-6525] Simultaneous RT to \>5 sites has been shown to be feasible, tolerable, and effective.[@b34-cmar-10-6525] Because of the remarkable physical and biophysical advantages, radiation modalities such as proton[@b35-cmar-10-6525] and heavy ion therapy[@b36-cmar-10-6525] could be developed to treat ED-SCLC. Furthermore, as systemic therapies such as immunotherapies continue to improve, consolidative localcould not exclude PCI given for ED-SCLC because PCI was not listed separately in the SEER database. Based on the Slotman trial considering the benefit of PCI in ED-SCLC, published in 2007, and because we included patients from the SEER database from January 2010 to December 2012, many of the ED-SCLC patients in this analysis were given PCI.[@b4-cmar-10-6525] Analyses from the National Cancer Database (NCDB, a large cancer database, and most of its information overlaps with that in the SEER database) showed that 30.7% of SCLC patients in the database who were administered RT accepted PCI.[@b40-cmar-10-6525] We might also speculate that approximately one-third of the patients in our current SEER analysis received PCI.[@b40-cmar-10-6525] In our research, patients with RT obtained an additional 2--3 months of survival time; this

That is, no method for producing alloy ingots in a practical scale could be established.

Q:

Update value of Rotation in mov file using Exiftool

Phil Harvey has provided some excellent examples for using Exiftool to write photo metadata at https://exiftool.org/exiftool_pod.html#WRITING-EXAMPLES.
Following Phil's examples, I've had no problem updating existing metadata fields of JPGs. However, I'm now trying to apply to same logic to video metadata (MOV wrapped H.264) but am not having any success. I've got a video that is upside down according to the iPhone 5 (iOS 7.1) it was shot with - the rotation value is 180 instead of 0. So I'm executing "exiftool -Rotation=0 [file name]" but the result I'm getting is:
0 image files updated
1 image files unchanged
Is there something fundamentally different with video metadata? Could this be a permissions issue? Is my execute statement incorrect? Is there perhaps a better approach?

The rate of healing of ulcers was associated with a decrease in ex vivo Ang-(1-7) formation and this effect was attenuated by lisinopril. The treatment with Ang-(1- 7) or AVE 0991 increased the expression of mRNA for cNOS and SOD and downregulated that of IL-1β and TNF-α followed by the decrease in the plasma IL-1β and TNF-α levels. We conclude that the Ang-(1-7)/Mas receptor system accelerates the healing of preexisting gastric ulcers via an increase in the gastric macro- and microcirculations, and an increase in gastric tissue oxygenation. These effects are mediated by PG and NO derived from overexpression of cNOS, an increase in the expression of antioxidizing


(Reuters) - Apple Inc AAPL.O has cut production orders in recent weeks for all three iPhone models launched in September, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday, citing sources.

A lower-than-expected demand for the new iPhones and Apple's decision to offer more models has made it difficult to anticipate the number of components and handsets the company needs, according to the WSJ report here.

Apple shocked investors a few weeks ago with a sales forecast for the Christmas quarter below Wall Street expectations, prompting certain suppliers to issue warnings that pointed to weakness in new iPhone sales.

noninteracting electrons,[@dejong95; @beenakker92; @nagaev92] while in the case of strong electron-electron scattering the value of the suppression factor is $\sqrt{3}/4$.[@nagaev95; @kozub95] Finally, when the devices become macroscopic and inelastic processes are present, like scattering with phonons, the noise is expected to reduce to the thermal value.[@shimizu92; @liu94] Remarkably, many of these predictions have been experimentally confirmed, [@li90a; @li90b; @liefrink94; @liu95; @birk95; @reznikov95; @kumar96; @steinbach96; @henny97; @schoel97; @pothier97; @henny98] thus opening new and interesting perspectives. Within this scenario, the understanding of the physical mechanisms originating shot noise and its suppression in mesoscopic conductors, and more generally in small-dimensional devices, is a field of growing interest.

Most of the theoretical works carried out so far have considered degenerate conductors, where the Pauli exclusion principle plays a major role, and neglected long-rangeballistic and diffusive transport regimes and different carrier injecting statistics, (ii) diffusive transport regime under elastic or inelastic scattering, and (iii) 3D, 2D and 1D momentum space. A MC simulation of shot-noise suppression in a 1D mesoscopic conductor has been performed in Ref. . It considered a degenerate sample in the presence of elastic and inelastic scattering where Pauli exclusion principle was taken into account but Coulomb interaction was neglected.

Despite the fact that the physical system we analyze is nondegenerate, some of the results we get coincide with those obtained in degenerate systems by using other approaches. In particular, it is specially surprising that we find the same [*universal*]{} 1/3 value for the shot-noise suppression factor under elastic diffusive regime.[@shot4] This 1/3 value has been obtained by very different


is associated with fluctuations in the mean carrier velocity $v(t)={1\over N(t)}\sum_{i=1}^{N(t)}v_{xi}(t)$, $C_N$ with fluctuations in the carrier number $N(t)$, and $C_{VN}$ with their cross correlation.[@jap93; @lino92] To distinguish between the results obtained from the static and dynamic PS, we shall denote the corresponding current spectral densities as $S_I^s$ and $S_I^d$, respectively.

Results
=======

The main results of the present work are organized as follows. Subsections A and B pertain to a 3D momentum space while subsection C is devoted to 2D and 1D momentum spaces. Most of the reported results refer to high values of the space-charge parameter $\lambda$ (typically $\lambda$=30.9), which implies significant effects related to long-range Coulomb interaction present in the active region of the structures.[@remark1] The essential influence of $\lambda$ on the suppression factor $\gamma$ is analyzed atthe end of subsection B. We recall that elastic and inelastic scattering are considered separately in the simulations. In no case both types of scattering are taken into account simultaneously.

Transition ballistic-diffusive regimes
--------------------------------------

The behavior of noise in the crossover from ballistic to diffusive transport regimes is analyzed under far-from-equilibrium conditions ($U
\gg k_BT/q$), since these are necessary for the manifestation of shot noise. The dependence of noise on applied voltage for the perfect ballistic regime was already reported in Ref.  and for the perfect diffusive regime it will be analyzed in next subsection.

Fig. \[var\] reports the variance of carrier-number fluctuations normalized to the average carrier number $\langle \Delta N^2 \rangle/
\langle N \rangle$ as a function of $\ell/L$. The values taken by the variance are found to be practically independent of the


value which $\gamma$ is found to take. Remarkably, the value of $\ell
/ L$ at which $\gamma$ starts decreasing when the ballistic regime is abandoned is the same in the elastic and inelastic cases for a given applied voltage ($\ell / L \approx 0.3$ and 0.1, for $80$ and 100 $k_BT/q$, respectively). However, when the diffusive regime is approached, a lower value of $\ell / L$ is required in the inelastic case with respect to the elastic case for $\gamma$ to reach a constant value. This behavior can be explained in terms of the different elastic and inelastic scattering intensity required by the electron system to achieve a significant equipartition of energy into the three directions of momentum space.

To better illustrate the above features, Fig. \[redis\] shows the spatial profilesare not reached until the inelastic scattering time is so short that the energy gained by electrons in a mean free path is much lower than the thermal energy, as already indicated by Landauer.[@landauer93]

To analyze the role played by the modeling of the contact injection on the suppression of noise, Fig. \[cont\] reports $\gamma$ as a function of $\ell / L$ calculated using four different models. They combine Poissonian/uniform injecting statistics and Maxwellian/fixed-velocity distribution of the injected carriers. The Poissonian-Maxwellian injection is the basic one used in calculations. In the perfect ballistic regime, when carrier transport is deterministic, $\gamma$ crucially depends on the injection model. Thus, in the case of the uniform fixed-velocity model, when the injection introduces no extra noise in the current flux, $\gamma$ is found to


We also notice that the transition from full shot noise to suppressed shot noise regimes is sharper in the inelastic case. The variance of the carrier number inside the sample resembles the behavior of $\gamma$, indicating that the increase of $\lambda$ leads to more pronounced sub-Poissonian statistics until reaching the final regime for $\lambda \gg 1$. Therefore, we conclude that the $1/3$ value exhibits several [*universal*]{} properties, namely, it is independent of: (i) the scattering strength (once $\ell \ll L$); (ii) the applied voltage (once $qU\gg k_BT$), (ii) the screening length (once $\lambda\gg 1$), and (iv) the carrier injecting statistics.

Dependence on momentum space dimensionality
-------------------------------------------

The results reported so far refer to a 3D momentum space. In contrast to degenerate diffusive systems where, provided quasi-one dimensional conditions in real spacethe simultaneous fulfillment of the three following conditions: $\ell / L
\ll 1$, $\lambda \gg 1$, and $qU / k_BT \gg 1$. The first implies perfect diffusive regime, the second strong space-charge effects, and the third very far-from-equilibrium conditions. Inelastic scattering is found to further contribute in suppressing shot noise, by reducing it to values close to thermal Nyquist noise under strong dissipative conditions. However, for this suppression to take place it is necessary the presence of long-range Coulomb interaction.

The action of Coulomb repulsion in suppressing shot noise takes place through the reduction of the contributions associated with carrier-number fluctuations to the total noise spectral density. In particular, the compensation between number and velocity-number terms implies that the total noise is finally determined just by the contribution of velocity


regions with robust expression of exogenous ASCL1 ([Figure 4](#fig4){ref-type="fig"}E). These results suggest that ASCL1 has important roles in the SOX2-driven reprogramming process but is not itself sufficient to induce cell fate switch in the adult striatum.

iANBs Mostly Generate Calretinin^+^ Interneurons {#sec2.5}
------------------------------------------------

We previously showed that iANBs can give rise to functionally mature neurons upon treatment with brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and noggin or with the small molecule valproic acid (VPA) ([@bib42]). However, the subtype of neurons generated by these treatments was unclear. We surveyed the expression of markers for striatal neurons by immunohistochemistry in regions injected with SOX2 virus at 8 wpi. To promote neuron survival and maturation, some of these mice were also injected with virus expressing BDNF or BDNF-noggin or were treated with VPA for 4 weeks starting atwith multipotent NSCs that yield transient amplifying neural progenitors and then mature neurons ([@bib14; @bib21; @bib30; @bib33]). Our immunohistochemistry and genetic fate-mapping experiments demonstrate that SOX2-driven in vivo reprogramming passes through an ASCL1^+^ intermediate progenitor stage. These progenitors give rise to DCX^+^ neuroblasts, which can further proliferate and expand the neuronal lineage ([@bib42]). This sequential and multistage amplification process is consistent with what has been observed in the adult neurogenic niches, suggesting that the reprogrammed glial cells have adopted the behavior of endogenous progenitors ([@bib29; @bib35]). ASCL1 serves as a molecular marker of neural progenitors and also controls their activity, including proliferation and differentiation ([@bib2; @bib4; @bib22; @bib26; @bib27]). Consistently, our conditional deletion of *Ascl1* in astrocytes shows that it is critically important for robust in vivo reprogramming. Nonetheless, ASCL1


calretinin, a calcium-binding protein in GABAergic interneurons ([@bib61]). Interestingly, calretinin was shown to be transiently co-expressed with DCX during the early stage of adult hippocampal neurogenesis and subsequently downregulated once newly born neurons become mature 6 weeks later ([@bib7]). In contrast, calretinin is rarely detectable in iANBs but continuously expressed once they develop into mature neurons by 8 wpi, suggesting the stable generation of this neuronal subtype. The preferential reprogramming of striatal astrocytes by SOX2 to calretinin^+^ neurons was unexpected but is most likely due to signaling cues present in the adult striatum or intrinsic factors residing in the striatal astrocytes. It will be interesting in the future to tease out these instructive factors for the generation of specific neuron subtypes.

Endogenous calretinin^+^ interneurons make up 0.5% of striatal neurons in theDo you know what's in your bottled water?

It could be just tap water--or much worse (because it's not subject to the same regulations as drinking water). And at least 25% of bottled water comes right out of the tap.

Chemicals from the plastic water bottles leach into the water--yikes! It's even worse when the bottled water is stored in a warm environment. I'm becoming increasingly worried about the amount of chemicals we are exposing our bodies to and the connection to cancer and other diseases. Plastic in contact with food or beverages is a huge culprit.

patients with compensated cirrhosis, and patients with histologically proven HCC. Both DCP and AFP levels increased among the groups as disease severity increased (from normal to HCC), but DCP values had less overlap among the groups than AFP. Study results concluded that a DCP value of 125 mAU/mL yielded the best sensitivity and specificity for differentiating patients with HCC from those with cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis \[[@B14]\]. Sensitivity and specifity of total AFP, AFP glycoforms, DCP, and combinations of both markers have been summarized in [Table 1](#tab1){ref-type="table"}.

Serum gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) in healthy adults is mainly secreted by hepatic Kupffer cell and endothelial cell of bile duct, and its activity increases in HCC tissues. Total GGT can be divided into 13 isoenzymes by using polymer acrylamidefrom embryonic development and liver regeneration. It is associated with molecular mechanisms of hepatocarcinogenesis via paracrine system involving its cellular receptor, c-met. High c-met expression has been shown in invasive-type HCC and has been associated with metastasis and reduced overall survival \[[@B26], [@B27]\].
