The World Baseball Classic has been wildly popular in places like Japan and the Dominican Republic, and in the last 14 years, baseball has played regular-season games in Mexico, Japan and Puerto Rico.

So Wednesday's announcement that the D-backs and Dodgers will open the 2014 regular season with a pair of games in Sydney on March 22-23 feels like an appropriate next step in growing the sport.

Besides, baseball has deep roots in Australia. Opening Day 2014 will mark the 100th anniversary of the White Sox and Giants playing an exhibition game there. Thirty-one current Major League players were born there, and baseball has for years scouted Australia for talent.

33 because of shivering. Apparently this is one of the reason why 33 was chosen in the first place (no shivering). The effect on outcome of slightly higher temperature (above 36) is unknown. The CHEER trial for refractory arrest (pilot study) used peri-arrest hypothermia (not post-arrest) showed substantial survival rates. The survivors all went home. For patients who cannot receive ECMO, there are reports of using Esmolol and Isoprenaline in refractory arrest situations. Mechanical CPR is being increasingly introduced in the ambulance in order to bring the patient to the Cath Lab while receiving CPR.

Regarding testing and prognostication, absent SSEP is highly reliable but there are exceptional case reports of unexpected survival. A “bad” MRI seems associated with 10% survival?

Antimicrobial use in the critically ill patients

The original datatraining is a strategy that is one of the least effective to improve care quality, but comes at the neck of the funnel after all other components of the system have been implemented. But poorly designed training programs will waste time and resources without changing outcomes.

The 3 main uses of simulation in ICU:

discovery simulation (driven by the need to find a new way)

diagnostic simulation (driven by need to improve existing standards)

repeated simulation for excellence (driven by need to reduce variability and achieve best standards).

Simulation shines a light on how people work in a system.

It is part of a quality improvement plan.

Identifying the most common adverse complication, new equipment, patient feedback, can help designing targeted simulation training.

Advanced imaging in TBI

The long term burden after TBI may be related to


medically treated conditions as opposed to surgical injuries.

CT may be an inadequate modality to recognise more subtle forms of injury, especially since axonal injury is a major driver of outcome.

Even at later stages, CT correlates poorly with cognitive and behavioral deficits.

CT provides very limited information about pathophysiology and is a poor biomarker for novel interventions targeted at key physiological processes. Functional imaging (advanced MRI and PET) may provide a way to individualise targets, for example identifying patient where aggressive CPP treatment will provide benefit.

It can provide remarkable insights into the mechanism of secondary injury. It allows to dissect the contribution of classical ischaemia, diffusion hypoxia, and possible mitochondrial dysfunction.

Interestingly, one can demonstrate that hyperventilation produces hypoperfusion.

Specific tracers can be used to demonstrate the mismatch between perfusion and hypoxiawho cannot be extubated because of ongoing delirium. 74 patients were recruited instead of the 96 target. It was a very slow trial, terminated when the company withdrew support. The primary outcome was ventilator free hours in the first 7 days. A significant difference was shown. The intervention group was liberated quicker from ventilation; delirium scores were less. ICU and hospital length of stay, and mortality were not significantly different (small study population).

Prognostication after cardiac arrest

The prognostication aspect is included in the ANZCOR guideline. It states that clinical examination early should not be used to prognosticate.

The use of other modalities and waiting at least 72h is suggested.

Absent pupillary responses is a recommended predictor, but relying on a poor motor score should be discouraged.

Myoclonus alone is unreliable, but status


trigger of crossing to the “pathology” stage in predisposed patients for dementia.

Genetic predisposition is probably a significant driver of outcome.

Brain volume is shown to be shrinking more rapidly over time. This is suggested from imaging and autopsies.

Literature suggest an increased risk on neurodegenerative disorders, with more frequent diagnosis such as dementia (Alzheimer’s, in male patients).

Some of this relates to the concept of cognitive reserve. Increased amyloid deposition can be demonstrated, in a similar pattern compared to Alzheimer’s. There are many more protein types that show deposition (in the spectrum of Parkinson, Lewy bodies, Fronto-temporal dementia). Amyloid can now be imaged in TBI patients (C11-labelled compound B). There is increasing evidence of amyloid deposition.

The trajectory of patients after TBI can eventually be followed. These protein deposits are associated with*/

The only Mayoral candidates invited to speak were the current Mayors – John Banks, Len Brown and Andrew Williams.

(CNN) -- A Navy training jet crashed in a north Georgia forest on Monday, killing at least three people aboard and setting more than 10 acres of woodland ablaze, local and federal authorities said.

A fourth person aboard the jet was unaccounted for Monday night, said Harry White, spokesman for the Naval Air Station in Pensacola, Florida. The cause of the crash was under investigation.

FAA spokeswoman Kathleen Bergen said the crash of the twin-engine T-39N trainer caused no injuries on the ground. It went down just north of Morganton, Georgia, about 80 miles north of Atlanta, Fannin County Sheriff's Maj. Keith Bosen said.

"We got reports that it was flying pretty low," Bosen said. The plane had flown north-northeast over the nearby town of Blue Ridge before it went downconcomitant specific intents to rape her, to rob her, and to kill her, has committed not three crimes, but one. That one has simply been aggravated upward to the felony plateau in three different ways. An uncritical application of the Blockburger test, simply comparing elements, might make it appear that assault with intent to rob, assault with intent to murder, and assault with intent to rape are all separate crimes because each possesses a distinct element. It is not a proper occasion to apply the Blockburger test, however, because these are but various forms of aggravating a common undergirding offense. By the same token an uncritical application of the Blockburger test would indicate that premeditated murder and felony-murder are separate crimes, but we know that they are but

The State bears the burden of making a prima facie showing that it has complied with the minimization requirements, Poore v. State, 39 Md. App. at 71, 384 A.2d 103; Pearson v. State, 53 Md. App. 217, 221-22, 452 A.2d 1252 (1982), but, once it has done so, the burden shifts to the defendant "toargument concerning the recording and reporting of all of the foreign language calls is meritless. The statute, See § 10-408(e)(4), permits the recording of foreign language calls in their entirety. Minimization is accomplished at a later time in those cases when an interpreter or translator becomes available. That was done in this case. Since there is no suggestion that the delay between recording and subjecting the foreign language calls to minimization was inordinate, the police complied with the law.
The motions judge considered, and ruled upon, appellant Ezenwa's contention that accurate progress reports were not provided. He stated, in that regard:
Now, as to the progress report; well, it was pointed out that although in the officer's summary and what he called his case update, Sergeant Rineker used the word


believe Sergeant Rineker when he said that his progress reports were fair and reasonable summaries made in good faith and that in addition to them there was further dialogue with Judge Johnson, so I think again the progress reports were fair, they were made in good faith. They were certainly adequate to justify the continuous interception.
With that ruling, we agree.

DISSEMINATION
During the course of the wiretap, the police made duplicate tapes which they provided to the translator so that he could make verbatim transcriptions. The translator took these tapes home and worked on them there, without supervision by the police.
Appellants argue that by providing the tapes to the translator, who was not a law enforcement officer, and allowing him to work without supervision, the police violated Maryland Courts &made by another co-conspirator to a third party, it must first demonstrate, through evidence aliunde, the existence of a conspiracy, but the testimony of one conspirator is admissible against a co-conspirator without the necessity of establishing through an independent source the existence of the conspiracy."

In the case sub judice, the statements were introduced into evidence through the testimony of the police officer and the translator. Before they were admitted, however, transcripts of each intercepted conversation the State intended to use was provided to the trial court. Included among the transcripts were conversations in which each of the appellants was a party.

Consequently, we think that appellants' concerns were adequately met and any prejudice or harm that the reference to the Baltimore prosecution and arrest might have done by was cured.

NOTES
[1]  We set out, and will address, the issues in the order in which appellants Obi and Okoroafor presented them inis consistent with the discussion of conspiracy set out in Mason v. State, 302 Md. 434, 445, 488 A.2d 955 (1985):

Ordinarily, a single agreement to engage in criminal activity does not become several conspiracies because it has as its purpose the commission of several offenses. Therefore, under Maryland common law, irrespective of the number of criminal goals envisioned by a single criminal agreement, the conspirator is usually subject to but one conspiracy prosecution.
[6]  A charging document is duplicitous if it charges more than one offense in a single count. See State v. Hunt, 49 Md. App. 355, 357, 432 A.2d 479 (1981); Ayre v. State, 21 Md. App. 61, 64-65, 318 A.2d 828 (1974).

Specifically, we observed that the Board's error resulted in an uneven application of the Election Law, because some voters were required to comply with the absentee voter application process, while others were not. We were also particularly concerned that the challenged absentee votes were cast by voters who were never made to "articulate[ ] why they were not able to vote at the polls" (id. at 259). Thus, because of the Board of Elections' failure to ascertain whether the voters were duly qualified to cast absentee ballots, we concluded that the Board's mistake warranted the invalidation of the challenged absentee ballots.

justice for all? We’d have to massively decrease the size, cost and importance of politics in our lives in order to achieve anything close to true equality among us. And of course we’d have to radically reform the biggest disparity of rights and powers of all — the incredibly corrupt mess that we call “government” today.

We don’t need any new laws. We need only resurrect the constitutions that still could make us special, more than any other nation, by treating us all, at long last, the same.

Horning writes frequently on classical-liberal topics and is an expert on federalthe different criticality values of and ). The utility of a shop is the sum of the utility sub-functions $U_1$ for all components of the shop while the utility of is the sum of the utilities of all shops. Similarly, matches for negative patterns would decrease the utility of the shops and therefore of (not illustrated in Fig. \[fig:Utility\]).

Consequently, considering $M_i(G) = \{ m | G \models_m P_i \}$ as the set of matches for the pattern $P_i$ in the current architectural configuration $G$, the overall utility function $U(G)$ accumulates all effects due to matches of all patterns ${\mathcal{P}}= \{ P_1, \dots, P_n \}$[^1]: $$\label{eq:utility}

Our scheme can be directly mapped to a MAPE-K feedback loop. The *monitoring* phase observes change events emitted by the system to trigger the adaptation. During the *analyzing* and *planning*, our scheme requires two decisions: the target configuration of the system, and the rules and their matches that move the system to the target. Finally, the last step *executes* these rules for their matches on the running system.

These two decisions are inspired by the idea of model-predictive control [@Seborg+2011] that first defines a target and then predicts the optimal path to reach the target. This is illustrated in Fig. \[fig:target\] showing one target with three alternative paths to reach the target. Consideringto observation (2). To keep our considerations simple, we consider the case where each rule covers exactly one negative pattern. Based on these assumptions, we can compute all matches for rules incrementally if for the related negative pattern $P^-_i$ the set of new matches $M_i^{new}$ is given.

Fig. \[fig:P\] illustrates a simplified view of a planning rule for the example to repair . Following the analysis phase described in Fig. \[fig:A\], the rule set $\Re$ is checked to find all the rules that can extend the occurred negative pattern with adaptation rules such as and that can handle the corresponding issue such as . The cost estimation functions and compute the costs of executing each rule to the system under adaptation, for instance, to restart or replace a component in the


match.

For a single rule $r_j = (P_j,\dots)$ where $P_j$ extends the negative pattern $P^-_i$, it holds that each time $r_j$ is applied to $m_j$ then the match $m_i$ for a negative pattern $P^-_i$ is removed (see A2 discussed previously). We further assume that (A3) $r_j$ does not result in any new match or removed matches besides $m_i$ for any negative pattern. Then, we conclude for any $G,\,G'$ that results from applying rule $r_j$ to $G$ for match $m_j$ ($G \to_{r_j,m_j} G')$: $$\label{eq:delta}
  U^{r_j}_\Delta(G,m_j)
:=
  U_\Delta(G',G)
=
        U^-_i(G,m_i)
$$ Thus, for the discussed form of rules for which (A1) to (A3) hold, we can locally compute their impact on the utility.

Each sound token was an instance of iterated rippled noise (IRN), generated by iteratively combining a noise stimulus with the same signal delayed by 1/*f* s, to achieve a pitch percept of *f* Hz (Patterson et al [@R9]; Yost [@R22]). The number of iterations, which controls pitch strength or saliency, was kept constant (to thirty-two iterations) for both high and low pitched sounds. IRN was chosen instead of pure tones so that both sounds spanned the same frequencies, allowing equal intensity sounds to have equal loudness, and minimising differential stimulus-specific adaptation effects (Ulanovsky et al [@R17]). Onsets were simultaneous, and listeners were asked to report by means of button press on a computer keyboard which of the soundsstandard errors and the lines correspond to standard deviation.](i-perception-2-112-g0002){#F2}

As Takato and his friends play with Guilmon, a strange-looking boy joins them, whom nobody in the group knows. The strange boy leers at the group, laughs at them, and runs off, leaving a very confused Takato and his friends behind.

As Takato’s friends go home for the day, Juri tells Takato that he seems worried about something. Takato, however, shrugs it off, and Juri cheerfully takes her leave. Takato thinks about the Devas and whether Guilmon will become stronger and evolve as enemies keep appearing. Culumon arrives, and Takato, remembering that Culumon had triggered Galgomon’s matrix evolution, points out that Culumon’s always mysteriously around whenever anyone evolves. He asks Culumon


Digimon partners, and Impmon decides to use the Deva as a demonstration of how strong he is without evolving. Impmon takes on Indaramon himself, but his attacks are woefully pathetic and Indaramon kicks him down with no problem. Jian and Takato arrive and Jian is about to send in Terriermon, but Renamon tells him to wait and not interfere in Impmon’s fight.

Indaramon continues to beat Impmon up, with the latter still weakly insisting that he’ll become stronger. Jian decides that the Deva truly are evil, and when Indaramon is about to load Impmon’s data, Renamon goes to save him, only to be attacked herself.

Carriers Offer Free Services in Wake of Hurricane Harvey Wireless and fixed-line ISPs are lending a hand in the wake of the devastation caused over the weekend by Hurricane Harvey. Of the 7,804 cell sites across the impacted region, 320 are out of service, or about 4% notes the FCC. The hardest-hit areas are Aransas County, Refugio County, Calhoun County and San Patricio County, notes the agency. All told, at least 148,565 people in the path of the hurricane were without cable or wireline service as of Sunday, according to the FCC's report.

Many cell towers have battery backups or backup generators to ensure towers remain online, but getting to these towers with the level of devastation is proving unsurprisingly difficult. “Verizon’s network continues to perform well throughout theAre The Comcast-Charter X1 Talks Dead In The Water?; AT&T May Offer Phone Plans With Ads For Discounts; + more news Europe's Top Court: Net Neutrality Rules Bar Zero Rating; ViacomCBS To Rebrand CBS All Access As Paramount+; + more news Verizon To Buy Reseller TracFone For $7B; 5G Not The Competitive Threat To Cable Many Thought It Would Be; + more news MS.Wants Records From AT&T On $300M Project; Google Fiber Outages In Austin, Houston, Other Texan Cities; + more news States With The Biggest Decreases In Speed; AT&T Hopes You'll Forget Its Fight Against Accurate Maps; + more news AT&T's CEO Has A Familiar $olution To US Broadband Woes; EarthLink Files Suit Against Charter; + more news 5G Doesn't Live Up To Hype, AT&T's 5G Slower


under the seafloor, and plural weak oscillations (i.e., the bubble pulse train) following the primary (first) pulse complicates seismic data processing. These problems may be overcome by using arrays of air guns (i.e., a source array), generating a larger amplitude primary pulse and canceling secondary individual pulses by destructive interference.
A source array includes plural individual sources, as already discussed with regard to FIG. 2. Since the dimensions of the source array, including plural individual sources, are comparable with the generated wave's wavelength, the overall wave the source generates is directional, i.e., the shape of the wave, or its signature, varies with the direction until, at a great enough distance, the wave starts having a stable shape. After the shape become stable, the amplitude of the wave decreases inversely       if (object.ReferenceEquals(this, other)) return true;

Multi-Gigabit Tech Could Lead to Wireless PC

Researchers at the Georgia Electronic Design Center (GEDC) of Georgia Institute of Technology are working on ultra-fast wireless connectivity solutions. If current efforts eventually lead to success, it could mean the end of the wired computer. The team of researchers propose the use of extremely high radio frequencies to attain broad bandwidth and high data transfer rates. Operating at an unprecedented frequency of 60GHz, the investigators have reached 15Gbps at a distance of one meter, 10Gbps at two meters, and 5Gbps at five meters.

“The ‘multi-gigabit wireless’ technology uses radio frequencies which cannot penetrate walls or even human skin, meaning that it could have significant safety and security advantages."

he was totally disabled by multiple sclerosis since July 1973, the Company, in bad faith, refused to honor its obligations to pay him the monthly indemnity. He asked for the entire amount of the policy, $110,250, in damages and he requested $27,562 in costs and attorney's fees. (This is designated as count I.)
In January 1975, insolvency proceedings for the Company were initiated in Oklahoma. On February 3, 1975, the Company was placed in receivership; the Commissioner was named its conservator and given control over it. An injunction, issued by an Oklahoma court as part of its order appointing the Commissioner, contemplated the stay of all then pending actions against the Company.
On February 24, 1975, the Company and Clark agreed to settle the Illinois case and the following consentjudgment was entered:
"[I]t appearing to the court that all matters in controversy having been fully compromised, settled and adjourned, and it further appearing that the defendant has agreed to make certain payments to the plaintiff and his attorney on a regular monthly basis during the period of disability; IT IS THEREFORE ADJUDGED as follows:
1. The above entitled cause is hereby dismissed with prejudice and without costs.
2. In the event the defendant fails to make payments as here and *980 above provided, the plaintiff may petition the court to reinstate the * * * cause upon proper notice to the defendant."
This is the only rendering of the settlement. Pursuant to it, the Company made a lump sum payment to Clark and began to make monthly payments to him.

Like any other agreement, the law of contract controls its interpretation and its meaning should be determined by the language chosen by the parties. Pierce, 46 Ill. App.3d 42, 50, 360 N.E.2d 551, 557; Filosa, 18 Ill. App.3d 123, 127, 309 N.E.2d 356, 359.
 4 Here, the settlement agreement, embodied in the consent judgment, premised "certain payments" to Clark upon one condition: the continuance of his disability. Since the record contains no evidence that the disability has ceased and the consent judgment contains no language which indicates that the parties intended payments under it to be conditioned on any other event, the Company breached the settlement when itregular use of primary care services, triggering the search for diabetes. Nevertheless, from the considered tools, (1) we showed that the HR for diabetes risk decreased to 1.28 if diabetes detection was assumed to be 20% more likely in highly adherent patients; (2) an increased risk of diabetes was found among patients with no specialist visits during the first year of follow-up; (3) no association was found between adherence to bisphosphonates (negative exposure) and diabetes nor between adherence to statins and initiation of antihypertensive pharmacotherapy (negative outcome). Implementation of analytic strategies for addressing detection bias is advisable whenever this is suspected. As illustrated, several methods could be considered. Their implementation suggested that detection bias had a limited impact in our application.

This Court stayed its mandate in Republic Steel I pending the EPA's petition for a writ of certiorari from the Supreme Court.  Shortly after EPA filed its petition for certiorari, Congress enacted the Clean Water Act of 1977, which substantially revised FWPCA.  In the wake of that enactment, the Supreme Court granted EPA's petition, vacated our judgment in Republic Steel I, and remanded the case to this Court for further consideration in light of the new law.

 The case initially came before us on a petition for review of the Administrator's action, pursuant to § 509(b)(1)(F) of the Federal Water Pollution Act, 33 U.S.C. § 1369(b)(1)(F).  The particular action submitted for review was a decision by the Administrator under § 402(d)(2)(B) of the Act to "object to," and thereby veto, issuance of a water pollution permit for the Canton mill as proposed by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency.  We note that the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit has since ruled that § 509(b)(1)(F) does not convey jurisdiction on the courts of appeals to review permit vetoes by the Administrator under § 402(d)(2)(B).

Both backs simply acted as extra protection for Hogan, and, with eight kept in to block, the fleet Ty Montgomery beat double-coverage and caught a 46-yard touchdown pass in stride. Same thing later, with a little more illusion. Keeping seven in to block with Hogan in the pistol, Stanford had wideout Kelsey Young motion in from the right and follow running back Tyler Gaffney out of the backfield in a double-wheel-route concept up the left sideline. Army, confused, covered only one of them, and Gaffney caught an easy 23-yard touchdown.

On this day, the Cardinal ran 56 plays, and you never looked out on the field and said, “I’ve never seen that before.” (Well, the double-wheel thing maybe; that was unusual.) The formations and movement were offputting at

How do you legislate the speed of the game? If a coach wants his QB to snap the ball with 18 seconds left on the play clock, do you propose to make that illegal? Do you propose to say that you can only run a certain number of snaps every game? Coaches are going to do what wins. If playing fast wins games for the Eagles, Kelly will keep doing it, the same way New England does it with Brady running a lot of no-huddle. Regarding safety, I just don’t know. It stands to reason that running more plays does increase the risk of injury. But I simply don’t think that you can legislateby his HUGE receivers, who were a clear mismatch for ‘Bama’s small corners. On the other side I saw a guy who tossed four TDs, drove the ball downfield when it counted, didn’t make mistakes and stayed calm in a pretty hostile environment. Not to mention that he actually won the game! But there’s no mention of A.J. McCarron in your column. Seriously Peter? Nothing?

  the court submitted the issues of both liability and damages to the jury which found for the defendant. It awarded damages in the amount of $25,000 to the plaintiff on the second cause of action. The defendant filed a motion for new trial on the second cause. The plaintiff filed a motion for a new trial on the first cause. Both motions were overruled. The defendant appealed and the plaintiff cross-appealed.
The defendant makes numerous assignments of error which we consolidate by eliminating redundancies and restate as follows: (1) The court erred in admitting evidence concerning other litigation between the plaintiff and the defendant and in denying the plaintiff's motion for a mistrial because of the admission of such evidence. (2) The court erred in excluding the defendant's offer


you have testified about, yesterday and today, have you incurred a considerable amount of financial expenses? A. Yes, I have. Q. As a result of these actions, have you been involved in many different items of litigation in Holt County? A. Yes, I have. Q. Would you tell the jury how many different types of cases you have been involved in, and what they are about? A. Well, there are four different cases." After the answer to the last question, objection was made that the evidence was irrelevant. The court then excused the jury and the plaintiff's counsel made an offer of proof in which he described the various litigation and the expenses incurred by plaintiff in connection therewith. The court sustained the objections to the offer ofcourt to the jury directed the jury to find in favor of the plaintiff and against the defendant on the second cause of action. The additional instruction, quoted above, contradicts the former one. As a result, the jury verdict and judgment must be set aside and a new trial granted."
It is to be noted that this instruction added nothing to the instructions which had already been given and as to which no objection is made. The defendant's argument that the added instruction contradicted the previous instruction directing a verdict for the plaintiff on the second cause of action demonstrates no prejudice to the defendant for the jury followed the court's instruction as to the second cause. The defendant surely cannot be heard to complain because the jury rendered

Hinshaw & Culbertson, Chicago (Stephen R. Swofford, Thomas P. McGarry and David M. Schultz, of counsel), for Appellee.
Justice MILLER delivered the opinion of the court:
Plaintiff, Fischel & Kahn, Ltd. (Fischel & Kahn), filed a complaint in the circuit court of Cook County against defendants, van Straaten Gallery, Inc., and the New van Straaten Gallery, Inc. (van Straaten), for attorney fees. Van Straaten filed a counterclaim alleging that Fischel & Kahn was professionally negligent in representing van Straaten. During discovery, Fischel & Kahn filed a requestKahn's advice at issue and has waived the attorney-client privilege with respect to communications between it and Fischel & Kahn. However, we do not believe that it follows that van Straaten, by that same action, has waived the attorney-client privilege with respect to communications between it and its subsequent counsel, Pope & John.
*244 We find support for our conclusion in cases from other jurisdictions addressing similar circumstances. In Jakobleff v. Cerrato, Sweeney & Cohn, 97 A.D.2d 834, 468 N.Y.S.2d 895 (1983), the court held that when a plaintiff sued her former attorney for malpractice, she did not waive the attorney-client privilege as to her present attorney when the defendant attorney impleaded the present attorney on the issue of damages. The court stated that by bringing an action against


alternative means, though perhaps the most convenient, in which this information may be obtained. Mere convenience, however, should not justify waiver of the attorney-client privilege. To allow Fischel & Kahn access to the privileged documents in this case would, we believe, unnecessarily undermine the purpose of the attorney-client privilege to encourage full and frank communication between attorneys and their clients. See Waste Management, 144 Ill.2d at 190, 161 Ill.Dec. 774, 579 N.E.2d 322; see also Upjohn Co., 449 U.S. at 389, 101 S.Ct. at 682, 66 L.Ed.2d at 591. Therefore, we hold that van Straaten has not waived the attorney-client privilege in this case with respect to Pope & John by filing a malpractice action seeking attorney fees and settlement costs of the Mesirow litigation.

II. Work Product Doctrine
RuleArsenic trioxide (As302,) has been shown in clinical trials to have a major therapeutic effect in the acute myeloid leukemia (AML) subtype called acute promyeloctyic leukemia (APL). Preliminary in vitro results have suggested that As302 has antineoplastic activity in other tumors including non-APL AML, lymphoid and myeloma cell lines by several mechanisms that overcome cell resistance to chemotherapy. One mechanism is by As3O2 induced apoptosis via intracellular glutathione (GSH) and increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Cancer cells (including AML) with lower glutathione (GSH) levels are more sensitive to As203 induced apoptosis and compounds that decrease intracellular GSH can induce or increase this effect of As203. Several studies have shown that Vitamin C/ascorbic acid (AA) can enhance As302 induced apoptosis in non-AML APL AML, and multiple myeloma


Q:

Equivalent definition of residually finite group

I'm reading this paper that deals with group $C^*$-algebras and the definition of a residually finite group is if it has a separating family of finite index normal subgroups.  I've seen many of the equivalent definitions online but none of them to be phrased in terms of a separating family, and I cannot seem to find a definition of that either.

A:

Every group $G$ may be made into a topological group by taking as a basis of open neighborhoods of the identity, the collection of all normal subgroups of finite index in $G$. The resulting topology is called the profinite topology on $G$. A group is residually finite if, and only if, its profinite topology is Hausdorff. So any two points can bealso Diggs v.

The district court gave several reasons for holding that Wilbert Sheets did not have a cause of action under the doctrine of unjust enrichment.  We address only one of these rationales, as we find it dispositive.  The district court was concerned that the application of the unjust enrichment doctrine in this case would contravene the more particularized requirements of the Louisiana Uniform Trade Secrets Act.  We share the district court's concern and hold that the fourth and fifth prerequisites to the application of this equitable doctrine were not met in this case.

Neural consequences of partial toe amputation in chickens.
The extent of the damage inflicted on the hallux was determined in a group of detoed, newly hatched, male broiler-breeder chicks obtained from a commercial hatchery. Healing and neural regeneration were very rapid and after 22 days the stump had a complete epidermal and dermal covering with the dermis being well supplied with both nerves and blood vessels. Some regenerating nerve bundles became trapped in scar tissue and formed small terminal neuromas which persisted over the 60-day observation period. These results are discussed in relation to partial beak amputation and their welfare implications.There was something undeniably appealing about the design of the Nintendo Entertainment System, from its lunchbox-like shape to its lifting dust cover protecting the cartridge slot.

Retinoid X receptors (RXRs) occupy a central position within the nuclear receptor superfamily. They not only function as important transcriptional factors but also exhibit diverse nongenomic biological activities. The pleiotropic actions of RXRs under both physiological and pathophysiological conditions confer RXRs important drug targets for the treatment of cancer, and metabolic and neurodegenerative diseases. RXR modulators have been studied for the purpose of developing both drug molecules and chemical tools for biological investigation of RXR. Development of RXR modulators has focused on small molecules targeting the canonical ligand-binding pocket. However, accumulating results have demonstrated that there are other binding mechanisms by which small molecules interact with RXR to act as RXR modulators.

We then use the framework to show that an epistemically paternalistic policy Facebook enacted to combat fake news on its site is permissible. We close with reasons for thinking that epistemically paternalistic policies like the one we discuss should be a common feature of internet information environments. 2.

will be exposed to treatment they can reasonably reject. When thinking about others' reasons for rejecting some treatment, it is helpful to think of whether the treatment will harm them, whether it respects their personhood, and what the reasons for the intervention are.6 These factors can push and pull against each other to make a treatment permissible or impermissible. 3. Demoting Fake News Let us now consider a unilateral decision Facebook has made in their fight against fake news. Demoting Fake News. In April of 2019, Facebook announced that it would use a new metric, Click-Gap, to determine where to rank posts in one's News Feed7. Click-Gap measures the gap between a website's traffic from Facebook, compared to its traffic from the internet at large. The idea hereinterventions will have on users' attitudes, it will be by way of shielding users from misinformation masquerading as information. Users affected by the policy will then be prevented from forming inauthentic attitudes. This is because people (for the most part) will that their doxastic attitudes are justified and accurate. Now, there might be users who want to be antivaxxers, come what may. Perhaps they value being a member of the conspiracy-theorist community more than they value good epistemic hygiene. However, such users are not going to have their considerations changed by an intervention like Demoting Fake News.8 The touch of this intervention is far too light for that. So, (C1) is not met in the case of Demoting Fake News in virtue of the effects that it has

This invention relates generally to container construction, and particularly to the erection of, for example, steel grain bins, tanks, and cylinders.
2. Description of the Prior Art
A conventional method of erecting storage containers for grain, liquids, and other bulk materials employs factory fabrication of formed. punched, steel sections. These sections are expensive to fabricate, and leave something to be desired as regards rigidity and strength.
Another present method of erecting bulk storage containers involves welding steel plates in place on the container being erected. These plates are shaped above ground, a difficult and inefficient procedure.
A disadvantage to any known bulk storage container erection technique is the amount of handling required of the steel plates used to construct the container. These plates are heavy, and any transport


From Markets Sustained by Cyborgs to Astronaut Innovations

These robot presentations illustrate the increasing role many individuals believe automatons will play in the future. While many popular movies and television series wrongly predicted flying cars and citizen robots by the year 2000, humanity is much closer to using automatons in everyday life.

Individuals harbor very diverging opinions when it comes to this topic. Many see it as a beneficial opportunity for industries such as health care, while others are wary of the possibility this might have for people's jobs.

Andrew McAfee's robot innovation keynote outlines how robots are taking over tasks previously exercised by humans. Programs like Siri for the iPhone may have glitches, but they are certainly a strong indication of where the future is headed with robot-operated procedures.

A three-dimensional pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxylate Cd(II) coordination framework with new (4,4,4)-connected three-nodal topology.
Poly[(mu(4)-pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxylato)cadmium(II)], [Cd(C(6)H(2)N(2)O(4))](n) or [Cd(pzdc)](n) (pzdc is the pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxylate dianion), has been synthesized hydrothermally. The asymmetric unit consists of a Cd(II) atom and two independent halves of pzdc ligands that can be expanded via inversion through the centres of the ligands so that each ligand binds to four Cd(II) atoms with the same binding mode using six donor atoms. The Cd(II) centre is in a distorted octahedral coordination geometry with four O- and two N-atom donors from four pzdc ligands. The infinite linkage of the metal atoms and ligands forms a three-dimensional framework with a rectangular channel which is so narrow that there is no measurable void space in the overall structure. This coordination polymer represents the first exampleQ:

Quick and dirty way
Might have some unexpected quirks when it comes to the module system and relative paths, I haven't used it enough to say:

Better way
Configure require() to treat all modules that start with a certain package name (e.g. foo) as coming from a particular URL. From your starter page, something like:

If you want buyers to meet a buyer’s agent, just put the phone number of a buyer’s agent on the sign instead of yours (if you represent the seller)…simple as that. Dual Agency…POOF! Magic Wand.

UNLESS the buyer insists on speaking directly with the listing agent, for whatever reason they may have to do that. When that happens I think the agent should hang a big sign around their neck that says “I am the agent for the SELLER” during any discussions with the buyer. Clarity…Transparency…is as simple as a piece of paper, a Sharpie and some string 🙂

States that have enacted laws eradicating Dual Agency


change regulations that need changing. If you were in the industry before buyer agency, you would know which regulations needed changing when buyer agency started…and were not.

Saying a buyer MUST have representation…or pay for it even if they do not, is like telling all sellers they MUST have an agent. Arrogant. Not you personally…any regulation that enforces that position.

Jim,
I can give you the personal perspective of a buyer AND seller who used a dual agent. When we purchased our first home, we asked a very good friend who had been a local realtor for 30+ years to represent us as we searched. She suggested that we drive around the area (Winchester, VA) to get to know different neighborhoods and to get an idea of what was available. Inthe process of looking we found a great end unit townhouse two miles from my husband’s job.

The sign in front of it said For Sale by Owner, so we took the number down and called to see if it was still available, the owner said yes, and asked if we wanted to take a look that evening. We knew our agent had told us not to view any properties without her, so we called to see if she could join us. When she learned the address she told us that she had just signed with the couple the day before because they were tired of trying to sell on their own. As first time buyers, we were like baby ducks that had imprinted on the wrong mother. We


way to make provisions that will better protect the buyer, the seller, and the agents. We just have to be committed to finding it, and working for it. Real estate is hopefully no longer a hobby for some agents and clients, and I think that the move towards transparency is what everyone needs to help revitalize markets everywhere, and level the playing field a bit more. I’m just one buyer, and there are other opinions out there, but this one is mine.

I have had this situation and have asked the seller not to list the house until I could get my client (who I suspect has an interest) over to see it. If my client (the buyer as in your case) likes it, then I refuse to representDual Agency came, in the same split second, as Buyer Agency.

At that time everyone who worked for the same broker became a Dual Agent if they had a buyer for any of their Office Listings. If that Broker was the broker for the whole County of offices, then all of those agents became Dual Agents if they had a buyer. That made it impossible for any agent in any of the offices to sell an office listing without Dual Agency coming into play.

Many areas, the whole state of CA (I believe) still operate this way.

Designated Agency became the answer to Dual Agency as it limited the issue to only one person…the specific listing agent…allowing other agents in the same office to represent the buyer. Some states (like Florida)


was yes, they’d call the Buyer and tell them that the Seller thought they got a great deal and pass-on what the Seller had said. In many cases the buyer would agree to bring charges against the agent for agency and representation violations. The cases were generally settled out of court and they nearly always won a judgement.

She points out that companies may look to flexible work circumstances to fill gaps. “Additional focus may be placed on telecommuting options in the short-term to determine if it will help fill the talent need, however, we have seen this type of situation in the past and it usually results in the need for relocation after a period to help align the talent with the business needs.”

Researchers have wondered about the so-called “fever effect” since at least 1980, when a viral infection swept through a therapeutic nursery for children with autism at Bellevue Psychiatric Hospital in New York. Hospital staff reported that the children were more social, alert, and talkative while feverish. When their fevers faded, so did those behavioral improvements.

As one mother described it, her child’s fevers provide a glimpse into what her child might be like without autism.

Note that the fever effect is not exclusive to ASD, but is also experienced by non-autistics and possibly even animals. It’s just that the fever effect was first observed among autistics, presumably because the increase in sociability in a condition that is characterized by a lack of sociability,


be unethical, so researchers instead use sulforaphane—a chemical derived from cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and cabbages —which mimics the metabolic effects of a fever.

The research has been optimistic in that greater than 50% of autistics respond positively to treatment, with one report indicating a 56% response rate at week 30, in a trial where 125 mg of broccoli seed powder was taken 3–8 times a day depending on weight.

Sulforaphane reduces irritability, stimming, and echolalia. Some autistics become more social; expressing affection and wanting to engage with their caregivers.

Improvements

In a study from 2014 involving an 18-week trial of 44 young men with ASD, those receiving 50–150 µmol of daily sulforaphane had significantly greater improvement on the Aberrant Behavior Checklist (ABC), the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS), andby an Orange Park woman on Change.org.

1
British Caledonian Airways, Ltd.  (British Caledonian) appeals from an adverse summary judgment entered in a suit against First State Bank of Bedford (Bedford Bank).  The suit arose out of Bedford Bank's processing of a check on an endorsement forged by one of British Caledonian's employees.  British Caledonian raises issues concerning the standard of "good faith" underdistrict court granted summary judgment for Bedford Bank on section 3.405.

10
British Caledonian argues that Bedford Bank's Supplemental Summary Judgment Motion violated the district court's motions deadline and caught British Caledonian by surprise, depriving it of the chance to gather evidence to oppose the motion.  We note that British Caledonian's own motion for summary judgment opened the door to allow the district court to grant summary judgment for Bedford Bank sua sponte, provided adequate warning and the other summary judgment requirements.   Landry v. G.B.A., 762 F.2d 462, 464 (5th Cir.1985);  10A C. Wright, A. Miller, & M. Kane, Federal Practice and Procedure Sec. 2720 (2d ed. 1983).  Moreover, British Caledonian was not unfairly surprised.  Bedford Bank asserted the section 3.405 defense at the


sufficient to determine that check kiting was going on;  moreover, one of the principals in the fraud was a director of the bank at the time.   Id. at 201.  Further support for the subjective "actual knowledge" requirement can be found in The Richardson Co. v. First National Bank in Dallas, 504 S.W.2d 812, 816 (Tex.Civ.App.--Tyler 1974, writ ref'd n.r.e.)  (even though a dishonest employee applied a check made out to her employer to the employee's personal debt with the bank, the bank was entitled to assume that the employee was authorized to do so);  and Aetna Life and Casualty Co. v. Hampton State Bank, 497 S.W.2d 80, 87-88 (Tex.Civ.App.--Dallas 1973, writ ref'd n.r.e.)  (neither failure to follow normal banking practices nor It would be unusual for a company, such as P O M International, to endorse a check with its account number only.  The fact that all four lines of the endorsement are written in the same handwriting--a fact frequently cited by British Caledonian--tends to support the first interpretation.

36
British Caledonian nevertheless argues that any uncertainty about the correct interpretation of the endorsement presents a jury question precluding summary judgment.  The interpretation of a written document, such as this endorsement, is ordinarily a question of law to be resolved by the court.   Cunningham and Co., Inc. v. Consolidated Realty Management, Inc., 803 F.2d 840, 842-43 (5th Cir.1986).  The jury's role is limited to resolving any preliminary factual questions that may arise.  Id.


60(b) motion on the grounds that the evidence could have been discovered earlier with due diligence, and that the evidence would not have changed the result of the summary judgment.   Kentucky Fried Chicken Corp. v. Diversified Packaging Corp., 549 F.2d 368, 391 (5th Cir.1977).  A district court's action on a Rule 60(b) motion is reviewed only for abuse of discretion.   Murray v. Ford Motor Co., 770 F.2d 461, 464 (5th Cir.1985).

51
In regard to the Robinson evidence, British Caledonian knew at least since the Robinson affidavit that Robinson was the officer who reviewed the $116,000 check.  As discussed in an earlier section of this opinion, British Caledonian knew of the importance of Robinson's testimony, yet allowed nearly a year to pass without attemptingto obtain that testimony.  Moreover, Robinson hedged all of his deposition statements with "knowing what I know now" provisos.  With the provisos, Robinson's deposition does not directly contradict his affidavit and is therefore of doubtful impact.  The district court did not err in refusing to grant the motion on the Robinson evidence.

52
In regard to the collection letter, Bedford Bank's records custodian, Wanda O'Rourke, testified in 1982 that a collection letter would have been filled out for the $116,000 check, but that Bedford Bank had been unable to locate that letter.  British Caledonian made no further attempt to obtain the letter from Bedford Bank.  Although British Caledonian knew that Texas Commerce Bank cleared the check, British Caledonian did not attempt to obtain the collection

"The Patternists specialized in cerebral asymmetry. With grossly expanded right-brain hemispheres, they were highly intuitive, given to metaphors, parallels, and sudden cognitive leaps. Their inventive minds and quick, unpredictable genius had given them a competitive edge at first. But with these advantages had come grave weaknesses: autism, fugue states, and paranoia.

So, you're a creative person and you look out on the interwebs and you see so much superior talent. Should I be more innovative? Should I put the nose to the grindstone and shutup? How exactly do I aspire to the mastery I know that is inside me? How do I keep true to my own originality? Where doplay relevant roles. For instance, the loading times referred to above are expected to influence the low-frequency end of the power spectrum, which pertains to inter-avalanche correlations, while the high-frequency tail relates to intra-avalanche ones. It has been stated that “understanding the power spectrum of the magnetization noise is a long standing problem” [@dz02].

Some existing applications of wavelet transforms to the analysis of $V(t)$  mainly aim at demonstrating that the resulting spectra can successfully distinguish between BN originating from physically distinct materials (e.g., samples under differing amounts of internal stress). Semi-empirical classification schemes have been proposed . Wavelet (Haar) transforms [@daub92] have also been employed in conjunction with standard Fourier series, in order to produce higher-order power spectra of experimental data for $V(t)$ [@obw94; @pwd98; @pwd98b]. Analysis of the corresponding results provides


coalesce [@us2], and one eventually crosses over to a regime in which the interface is fully depinned, i.e. it moves at non-zero average speed.

In Fig. \[fig:tcorr1\] we show autocorrelations for driving rates still within the intermittent regime, compared with those for the adiabatic limit. The most significant change upon increasing $\Delta$ is the effective loss of negative short-time correlations. In fact, this represents an excess of positive intra-avalanche contributions, on top of the negative inter-avalanche terms (and some intra-avalanche ones as well) which still exist for non-zero $\Delta$ (on account of the demagnetizing factor). Positive reinforcements arise mostly because, when many sites are overturned during one lattice sweep, that same number of new sites will be probed by the interface. For each new site, the quenched randomness term in Eq. \[force\]spectra of experimental BN data show that, for Fe$_{21}$Co$_{64}$B$_{15}$ the high-frequency section falls initially as $f^{-1.2}$, and then crosses over to $f^{-1.9}$, while for Fe$\,$Si the decay is with $f^{-1.65}$ [@pwd98; @pwd98b]. Though the exponent values in both cases are not too dissimilar to the one found here, analysis of higher-order spectra [@obw94] leads to a more nuanced picture. For Fe$_{21}$Co$_{64}$B$_{15}$, it is found that most of the power in the high-frequency range comes from intra-pulse correlations [@pwd98], similar to our conclusion above, whereas for Fe$\,$Si the conclusion was that the high-frequency power is mainly connected to the inter-pulse sort [@pwd98b]. Therefore it would appear that the dynamics of the present model is closer to that of BN in materials like Fe$_{21}$Co$_{64}$B$_{15}$ than in Fe$\,$Si.

*278 COUNSEL
Hill, Farrer & Burrill and Jack R. White for Defendant and Appellant.
Loeb & Loeb and Albert F. Smith for Plaintiff and Respondent.
OPINION
HERNDON, Acting P.J.
This is the second appeal in this case. On the former appeal the judgment of the trial court was affirmed with respect to three causes of action on which plaintiff bank had prevailed, but was reversed to the extent that it was favorable to the defendant on two other causes of action. Reference is made to the decision of Division Four of this court in Beverly Hills Nat. Bank v. Glynn, 267 Cal. App.2d 859$3,500 and the third in the amount of $1,900 and as to each of which O'Toole had defaulted by nonpayment.
By his amended answer defendant alleged with respect to the two promissory notes involved in the first two causes of action that although he was nominally the maker, he was in fact only a surety. By way of defense to the three causes of action on the continuing guaranty, defendant alleged (1) that there was a lack of consideration for his undertaking as to each of the O'Toole loans; and (2) that the guaranty was invalid and unenforceable for the reason that he had been induced to execute the instrument by misrepresentations made by the bank's loan official, W.J. Marshall, and by Marshall's concealment of and failure to disclose


information furnished by plaintiff or any of its officers, agents or representatives. At no time did defendant rely upon the financial statement of O'Toole dated January 18, 1963, in the possession of plaintiff nor did defendant at any time rely upon any other financial information or data within the possession or control of plaintiff or its officers, agents or representatives."
"... It is not true that said W.J. Marshall or any other officer, agent or representative of plaintiff falsely stated the nature or extent of the financial condition of O'Toole or concealed or suppressed information regarding *280 the existence of obligations owed by O'Toole to plaintiff or other banks...."
"... It is not true that misrepresentations were made by plaintiff or any of its officers, agents or representatives or thatthe surety intends to assume"; (b) the creditor "has reason to believe that the facts are unknown to the surety"; and (c) the creditor "has a reasonable opportunity to communicate" the facts to the surety.' Nothing in the record of the case at bench would support a finding favorable to defendant as to either (a) or (b). Glynn, an experienced attorney and business man, had signed a guaranty for a client of some years' standing, at the client's request, which guaranty contained a specific reference to pre-existing debts. We do not know what O'Toole had told Glynn, nor does the record show that the bank was any more aware of the discussions between Glynn and O'Toole than we are now. Glynn presently makes much of an allegedly false


the first trial to prove the identical defenses of fraudulent concealment and lack of consideration.

The Doctrine of Res Judicata and Its Application
In Teitelbaum Furs, Inc. v. Dominion Ins. Co., Ltd. (1962) 58 Cal.2d 601, 604 [25 Cal. Rptr. 559, 375 P.2d 439], the dual aspect of the doctrine of res judicata and the elements essential to its application were restated as follows: "The doctrine of res judicata has a double aspect: (1) it `precludes parties or their privies from relitigating a cause of action that has been finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.' (2) `Any issue necessarily decided in such litigation is conclusively determined as to the parties or their privies if it is involved in a subsequent lawsuit on a different cause of action.' (Bernhardmatter how wrongly it is decided. In other words a judgment is binding and conclusive against collateral attack though it is harsh and unjust, contrary to the evidence, or based upon errors of law. [Citations.]"
As stated in Zeppi v. State of California (1962) 203 Cal. App.2d 386, 388 [21 Cal. Rptr. 534]: "In every instance where a rule established by case law is changed by a later case the earlier rule may be said to be `mistaken'  in one sense of the word. It also may be said to be `unjust'; otherwise it would not have been changed. Such `mistakes' or `injustices' are not a ground for equity's intervention. So to hold would be to emasculate, if not wipe out, the doctrine of res judicata because the
