Thailand was the introduction route of the cluster I via the Straits of Malacca, rather than Myanmar. This is because areas of the two countries are separated by high and long mountain ranges.

Our finding of the second settlement in the northeastern Thailand was firstly unexpected. Nonetheless, there is a number of evidence supporting this finding, including archeological studies in Angkor Borei in southern Cambodia that found pollen and tissues of *B. flabellifer* dating back approximately 1400--1500 years \[[@CR36], [@CR37]\]. Although there are also ancient scripts describing the presence of *B. flabellifer* in Laos in the past 1500 years \[[@CR38], [@CR39]\], we envisage that *B. flabellifer* in the northeastern Thailand was likely introduced from the areas, where it is now Cambodia, rather than Laos or Vietnam.

I always wanted to be a journalist because of the power it gives you to reach out to the masses, said the person whom we met aboard ‘The Ganga Mail‘. We were thoroughly impressed and asked him more about his life. Presenting to you an interview with the Deputy editor of ‘The Hindu’ and the Gangotri of ‘The Ganga Mail’, Bishwanath Ghosh. He for the first time speaks about his career, his life, his upcoming book and much much more. Read on.

Q: When and why did youoldies but as classics, be it Hindi or Tamil. The songs of Kishore Kumar and R.D. Burman are food for my soul – they make me feel happy that I am alive.

Q:Ganga Mail was born out of loneliness – the unmarried man that you were in 2005 said this. Ganga Mail made you write some posts that were honest and free of the fear of being judged and also made you learn the art of finding a story from an experience. Tell us how Ganga Mail has helped you evolve as a person and what did it teach you? Does your family follow your blog?

Ganga Mail records my life from the age of thirty-five, when I started blogging. It has served as my personal diary, my companion, my

Q: According to you, what is the future of Blogging?

I think Twitter has done some damage to the blog. In the sense that – to give you an example – earlier you read Amitabh Bachchan’s blogs, but now you follow his tweets. But the damage is limited. There will always be a readership for good writing, and more and more bloggers – the ones that write well – will find their works being published in print.

Thank you Bishwanath for taking us through this journey. Every stopover in this journeyThis invention relates to cotton candy machines and, in particular, to a floss head assembly for a cotton candy machine that is suitable for making striped cotton candy.
Cotton candy and correspondingly, machines for making cotton candy, are well known. Cotton candy is spun sugar, i.e., sugar that has been threaded into a convectionary fluff or floss. In general, colored sugar is used to make cotton candy and therefore, the cotton candy is itself colored. The most predominant color is pink and the second most predominant color is blue.
Heretofore, efforts to provide striped or multi-colored cotton candy using conventional cotton candy machines have been less than completely satisfactory because the different colored sugars melt together to form confectionary fluff of a single mixed color. Accordingly, it is desirable to


it's radius and height are smaller than the radius and height of the disc below it respectively.
What I tried:
I have an array dp[1....n] where dp[i] (1<=i<=n) stores the height of the tallest tower you can build using only the discs in the range 1....i. Then for disc i+1, there are two options. I either use it or I don't. So I iterate from 1 to i and add the heights of all discs whose dimensions don't conflict with disc i+1. Then i pick the bigger among that sum + height of disc i+1 and dp[i] and store it in dp[i+1]. Obviously, this does not work for some cases. I'm not checking if any of the other discs I picked are conflicting among themselves. Not sure if it's understandableQ:

curses library import error pypy

I have been using pypy 1.4 which is said to be fully compatible with cpython 2.5 but when I try to import the curses module, I get an import error evn though the curses module is available.Any pointers why this may be happening?

A:

The curses Python module uses the _curses C module.
The PyPy Python compatibility page says the following (with points emphasized by me):

PyPy implements the Python language version 2.5. It supports all of the core language, passing Python test suite (with minor modifications that were already accepted in the main python in newer versions). It supports most of the commonly used Python standard library modules; details below.
PyPy has alpha-level support for the CPython C API, however, as of 1.4.1 release this feature is not


less than r=0.85). Also, error disclosure general culture and error disclosure trust culture predicted intent to disclose a hypothetical error to a patient (r=0.25, p<0.001 and r=0.16, p<0.001, respectively) while teamwork and safety culture did not predict such an intent (r=0.09, p=NS and r=0.12, p=NS). Those who received prior error disclosure training reported significantly higher levels of error disclosure general culture (t=3.7, p<0.05) and error disclosure trust culture (t=2.9, p<0.05). The authors created and validated a new measure of error disclosure culture that predicts intent to disclose an error better than other measures of healthcare culture. This measure fills an existing gap in organisational assessments by assessing transparent communication after medical error, an important aspect of culture.said Gov. Chris Christie "is trying mightily to make New Jersey a friendlier state from a tax standpoint for new and existing businesses, and that process is well underway."

'The people of Arkansas feel betrayed'

Once in Northwest Arkansas, Monk’s rise continued. He starred on the basketball court at Bentonville High and discovered a more cosmopolitan existence than the one he left behind in the Delta. Marcus, meanwhile, became a graduate assistant for the Razorbacks’ men’s basketball team and got involved with the grassroots basketball scene. Their mother got a job as a nurse.

Given the family’s Arkansas roots — Monk’s cousin, Rashad Madden, also played for the Razorbacks between 2011 and 2015 — the expectation in Fayetteville was that Malik would follow in their footsteps. But he harbored one-and-done NBA dreams and committed to Kentuckymale:female ratio was 11:14, and patient ages ranged from 24 to 81 years (median, 53 years). Documented lymphadenopathy developed 1 week to 30 years (median, 5 years) after the start of Dilantin. The histologic features were reviewed in 25 of 25 cases, and the immunophenotypic data was available in 18 of 25. Fifteen of 25 cases showed a benign histology, which we primarily classified according to the presence or absence of immunoblastic hyperplasia. Seven cases were non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and three were Hodgkin's disease. In two of five cases for which sequential biopsies were available for review, there was progression from paracortical hyperplasia to malignant lymphoma. Our report describes the clinicopathologic features of 25 cases of Dilantin-associated lymphadenopathy and confirms the heterogeneity and nonspecificity of these histologic patterns.

The Republican Party has reached a record low favorability rating, according to Gallup. Since the pollster has been asking voters their overall opinion on America’s two major parties, the GOP has never dipped below 31 percent favorability – until this week. According to Gallup, only 28 percent of Americans view the Republican Party in a favorable light.

“With the Republican-controlled House of Representatives engaged in a tense, government-shuttering budgetary standoff against a Democratic president and Senate, the Republican Party is now viewed favorably by 28% of Americans, down from 38% in September,” writes Gallup’s Andrew Dugan. “This is the lowest favorable rating measured for either party since Gallup began asking this question in 1992.”

### Loschmidt echo as a metric

If the Loschmidt echo is primarily seen as defining a metric in Hilbert space, then it is natural to ask if a similar metric can also be defined for density matrices $\rho(t)$. In order for the generalized Loschmidt echo $|{\cal L}_\rho(\rho(0),\rho(t))|$ to give rise to a proper measure of distance in the space of density matrices we want the following relations to hold

-   $0\leq |{\cal L}_\rho(\rho(0),\rho(t))|\leq1$ and $|{\cal L}_\rho(\rho(0),\rho(0))|=1$,

-   $|{\cal L}_\rho(\rho(0),\rho(t))|=1$ iff $\rho(0)=\rho(t)$, and

-   $|{\cal L}_\rho(\rho(0),\rho(t))|=|{\cal L}_\rho(\rho(t),\rho(0))|$.

Without time dependence, this problem reduces again to the definition of a fidelity for density matrices.[@Bures1969; @Uhlmann1976; @Jozsa1994] A direct generalization of this fidelity leads to[@Zanardi2007a; @CamposVenuti2011] $$\label{LoT}
{\cal L}_\rho(t)\equiv |{\cal L}_\rho(\rho(0),\rho(t))|=\operatorname{Tr}\sqrt{\sqrt{\rho(0)}\rho(t)\sqrt{\rho(0)}}\,.$$ Note that this definitiona canonical density matrix as initial condition was considered and a generalized Loschmidt echo defined by $$\begin{aligned}
\label{tildeLav}
\tilde {\cal L}_{\textrm{av}} &=& \frac{1}{Z}\operatorname{Tr}\left\{\operatorname{e}^{iH_1t}\operatorname{e}^{-iH_0t}\operatorname{e}^{-\beta H_0}\right\} \\
&=& \frac{1}{Z}\sum_n \operatorname{e}^{-(\beta+it)E_n^0} \langle \Psi^0_n|\operatorname{e}^{iH_1t}|\Psi^0_n\rangle \nonumber \, .\end{aligned}$$ The result is a thermal average over the Loschmidt echo of pure states and thus very different from the overlap between density matrices defined in Eq. .

For all generalized Loschmidt echos discussed here an appropriate return rate can be defined. It is the return rate in the thermodynamic limit which we want to study in the following.

Unitary dynamics in Gaussian models {#Gaussian}
===================================

We consider free fermion models described by the Hamiltonian $$\label{Gmodel}
H=\sum_{k\ge 0} \Psi_k^\dagger \mathcal{H}_k \Psi_k$$ with $\Psi_k=(c_k,c_{-k}^\dagger)^T$. Here $c_k$ is an annihilation operator of spinless fermions with momentum $k$. This Hamiltonian describes models with a single-site unit cell which


are bilinear in the creation and annihilation operators and can contain pairing terms as in the transverse Ising and Kitaev chains, see Sec. \[Sec\_Ising\]. If we identify $d_k\equiv c_{-k}^\dagger$ then the Hamiltonian can also describe models with a two-site unit cell which contain only hopping and no pairing terms such as the SSH and Rice-Mele models, see Sec. \[Sec\_SSH\]. The momentum summation in both cases runs over the first Brillouin zone. It is often convenient to write the $2\times 2$ matrix $\mathcal{H}_k$ as $\mathcal{H}_k
=\mathbf{d}_k\cdot\mathbf{\sigma}$ where $\mathbf{d}_k$ is a three-component parameter vector and $\mathbf{\sigma}$ the vector of Pauli matrices. During the quench the parameter vector $\mathbf{d}_k$ is changed leading to an initial Hamiltonian $H_0$ and a final Hamiltonian $H_1$. In the two different bases in which the Hamiltonians are diagonal wemixed states to dynamical problems and provides a measure of the distance between the initial and the time-evolved density matrix. As such it is very different from previous generalizations studied in the context of dynamical phase transitions which are based on thermal averages over the Loschmidt echos of pure states and are only applicable to unitary dynamics.

For bilinear one-dimensional fermionic lattice models with periodic boundary conditions we have shown that finite temperatures always wash out the non-analyticities in the return rate of the generalized Loschmidt echo. Dynamical phase transitions only exist at zero temperature.

For open quantum systems described by a Lindblad master equation we similarly find that particle loss processes smooth out cusps in the return rate so that signatures of the dynamical phase transition are hard to

Measurements & Ordering The Right Size

Shoe sizes vary by style—they run long, short, wide or narrow. We test fit size 8.5 shoes, and sometimes recommend ordering a larger or smaller size. Look for this information on any product page. (e.g. Fit: Runs long, buy a half size down.)
If one foot is larger than the other, always fit the larger foot.

The


Also look inside to assess the lining and upper elements of the shoe, checking to see how they will address your needs. A leather lined shoe will generally last longer than one without lining, though the unlined shoe may be lighter and more appreciated in warmer climates.

Walk around. When trying on a new pair of shoes, always try on both pair and walk around a bit - always on a clean indoor surface of course. Flex your arch and toes to see if the shoes feel good while you move about. Try shoes on in the afternoon or evening. Feet swell to their largest as the day progresses, so you will get a better reading of your true size once your feet have warmed up to the day.

SomeSpecifics

Allow some time to break in a great pair of leather shoes--the best ones are a little tight in the beginning. By doing it right you’ll have shoes that are molded to your feet perfectly. See the How To Care tab for advice on proper shoe maintenance.

If the upper of the shoe is made of elastic or an elastic-blend fabric the shoe should fit snugly and need no breaking in. Shoes should never squeeze or cramp your toes.

If your shoes are slightly too loose in the in-step, a toe pad can be added to create a better fit, preventing any unnecessary friction.

For more heel and arch support or extra cushioning, consider custom fitted orthotic inserts, or even some gel inserts to target the problem.

Regular floor type machine tools (such as drill presses) are commonly quite large and very heavy, and are not easily movable by an operator. In particular, in order to move a floor type machine tool from one position to another, several persons are typically required to join together and to lift the floor type machine tool above the floor for movement thereof. Thus, a large amount of labor and time are required in order to move a floor type machine tool. Additionally, there is substantial risk of personal injury or machine tool damage that may accidentally occur during movement of the machine tool.

Re: United States Telecom Association Petition for Forbearance Under 47 U.S.C. §160(c) from Enforcement of Certain Legacy Telecommunications Regulations, WC Docket No. 12-61
For years I have pushed the Commission to review its rules and weed out those that are
unnecessary and outdated. Therefore, I am pleased to support this order which grants forbearance from the application of some extremely outdated and unnecessary rules – one actually dating back to the era of the telegraph.
While I had hoped that this order would have been more far-reaching, I am eager to continue
working with my colleagues in a deregulatory manner as we consider the remainder of the requests set forth in USTelecom’s forbearance petition. Moreover, the Commission should takeBut they are not particularly onerous either. For instance, the fruit doesn’t hang much lower than the seventy-seven year old requirement (first imposed by the FCC’s Telegraph Division) involving telegraph carriers’ delayed or undelivered messages and money orders, especially considering that FCC staff repeatedly has recommended its deletion—again, without any opposition—since the Clinton Administration.2
I’m pleased we’re picking it, but other rules identified in the petition are ripe as well. For some
of these rules, the petition for forbearance met with scant if any resistance. For others, the Commission already has concluded that forbearance is appropriate for the largest companies but has not yet done so with respect to smaller businesses. I hope we expeditiously consider the fourteen-and-a-half sets of rules that remain unaddressed by today’s order. We should act


soon to revise these and other regulations to fit the times.

1 With this power came a responsibility: The FCC must act on a petition for forbearance within one year of its filing unless it “finds that an extension is necessary” to meet the requirements of the statute. 47 U.S.C. § 160(c). Unfortunately, the Commission has repeatedly allowed the extension exception to swallow the one-year rule. Given the senescence of many of these rules, the private sector burdens of compliance, and the general need for the agency to act with dispatch, I believe we should aim to complete (not commence) our analysis of forbearance petitions by the one-year deadline.2 See Order, para. 9 & note 31.

Posted by picard578 on February 1, 2015Despite repeated proclamations about the “end of the dogfight”, gun has always remained an important part of fighter aircraft’s armament. There are several reasons. Having a gun provides a psychological security of having a fallback option if missiles are expended. Gun also has far lower minimum range than even most agile of modern dogfighting missiles (very short ranges reduce missile kill probability even if target is not within missile’s minimum range), and is the most versatile weapon aircraft has – it can be used in dogfight (shooting down aircraft), in air policing (warning shots) and ground attack.

However, Rafale has a relatively limited number of gun bursts avaliable (adequate for a single kill). On face of it, best balance between number of gun bursts and their effectiveness seems to be achieved by Gripen and Typhoon. This may not be as great shortcoming on Rafale’s part, however, since GIAT 30 offers an option to reduce rate of fire to 1.500 rpm; this leads to 11 projectiles fired in first 0,5 s, weighting 3,03 kg with 0,529 kg of HE-I, allowing for a total->Government proposes to set up 14 new AIIMS hospitals under PMSSY

One thing I have noticed in my limited experience with other parents who are raising children with special needs, no matter if it is physical or of the less-apparent-to-the-naked-eye variety, we all just look sort of…weathered. We can all agree that parenting in general is exhausting, but there’s a big difference in looking tired and a looking weathered. Tired parents need a nap. Weathered parents need hope. Tired parents are training their kids to say please and thank you, to aim for the toilet, and to color in the lines. Weathered parents need hope that their kids will one day be able to dress themselves, to sit through Thanksgiving dinnerthat the four of us Beasleys will learn how to live together under one roof in peace and harmony.

But if I just switch the sign, it does not work anymore and the assigned values for both variables are always 0, so the default value.
I can set up both variables independently, i.e. I can obtain a value for each variable. However, if I now want to combine both variables and check whether their sum is below a certain threshold (e.g. 130), then both variables are always determined as 0.

First, there issome of the bigger events, a second component was found in the 11–14 keV range extending down to 8 keV in some cases. The duration is typically 3 times shorter and ends near the peak time of the thermal component consistent with the Neupert effect of regular flares. Therefore the second component is suggested to be of non-thermal origin, presumably causing the beam-driven evaporation of the first component. The two components can be separated and analyzed in detail for the first time. Low-keV measurements allow a reliable estimate of the energy input by microflares necessary to assess their relevance for coronal heating.'

Introduction
============

Plasma of many million degrees and unknown origin has been


covers less than a decade in temperature (Reale, Peres and Orlando, 2001). From observations unresolved in time and space thus emerges the question whether the high temperature plasma apparent outside flares is just the remnant of previous larger flares, is heated by a stationary process or results from a superposition of unresolved small flares.

Small flares in the 3 – 8 keV range lasting a few minutes have first been observed by HXIS on SMM (Simnet [*et al.*]{}, 1989). Shimizu (1995) found microflares (active region transient brightenings) in Yohkoh/SXT observations sensitive to 4–7 MK. He reported events having energies as low as a few $10^{26}$ergs and a correlation of peak flux with source size (loop length) and density. Watanabe [*et al.*]{} (1995) have observed the full Sun in theregister photons in the energy range from 3 keV to 17 MeV with 1 keV resolution at low energies (Smith [*et al.*]{}, 2002). Imaging is achieved by nine absorbing grids modulating by satellite rotation. It allows to reconstruct the full Sun image with a resolution of 2$''$ at low energies (Hurford [*et al.*]{}, 2002). At low count rates, the spatial resolution is degraded (Saint-Hilaire and Benz 2002). RHESSI observes the Sun full time interrupted only by satellite night and the South Atlantic Anomaly. Energetic electrons sometimes cause spurious counts when the satellite is at high geographical latitudes. We use standard RHESSI software and calibrations updated to mid-August 2002.

As the energy, time and detector information of each photon is registered, the large number of low-energy photons during large flares


than A0.1 above background). -0.5cm

-   The emission above about 9 keV peaks generally before the emission at lower energies. -0.5cm

-   The event duration decreases continuously from 1.6 keV (GOES) to 15 keV. -0.5cm

-   In most events there is no emission perceivable beyond about 12 keV.

Photon Energy Spectra
---------------------

Two spectra are shown in Fig.2. The data were calibrated using the full detector response matrix. The first spectrum was integrated during event A shown in Fig.1d from 01:46:40 to 01:47:40 UT, the maximum phase at the higher energies. The total background, taken at the time of minimum flux before the event, was subtracted. Only the front detectors 1, 3, 5, and 9 have been used, having the lowest dropout rates in the time interval. Data dropouts9 keV. In the case of Fig. 2 different background choices changed temperatures in the range of $\pm 0.8$ MK, and different choices for the low-energy break for non-thermal emission produced a range of $\pm 0.7$ MK. The standard error was estimated by taking a third of the rms sum of the two. Note that the error in temperature and emission measure are anti-correlated.

At the time of writing, the energies below 5 keV are not yet fully calibrated. This can be noted in the fact that single collimators give a range of temperature values of $\pm$1.7 MK if using only the lowest 3 keV. The scatter decreases by a factor of 3 for taking a larger range. At 6–7 keV, and possibly also at 7–8 keV, the flux


was clearly above the thermal, 2 more cases were doubtful. In 4 cases, all at relatively high temperature, the 12–13 keV flux was within the error bars consistent with the thermal model. In the rest, 13 cases, the 12–13 keV flux was not significantly above background and could not be classified.

Discussion
==========

The existence of a second, non-thermal component at high energies in microflares is not obvious. We have searched for it in the following ways:

1\. The [*spectrum*]{} (Fig.2) of microflares below 10 keV is dominated by a thermal component with a temperature of the order of 10 MK. In 24% of the cases an enhanced high-energy tail is observed extending up to 15 keV. It could also be interpreted by a hot thermal kernel.

2\. The [*spectrogram*]{} (Fig.4) shows moredecreases, the count rate in the higher energy channels diminishes more rapidly than at low energies where the increasing emission measure even delays the maximum flux. The smaller the flare size, the faster this takes place. Thus the cross-correlation peak drifts the faster, the smaller the flare. Considering the previously reported relation between flare size and peak flux (see Introduction), this may explain the observed inverse relation between drift rate and peak flux (Fig.6).

Conduction models have been proposed to interpret a Neupert-like relationship between higher and lower energy photons (reviewed in Dennis and Schwartz, 1989). Although the second component of microflares at high energies could be fitted by the thermal emission of a hot kernel, it would not contain enough energy to allow for conductive heating of the


I am concerned about the destination of the pensions of thousands of British workers build up over decades.

In a recent blog tried to point out that accepted wisdom that the PPF is a bad destination may not always been the case. In another blog I made a case against glib advice to transfer to investment driven financial products driven by fear (consumer) and greed (adviser).

In this third blog I want to look at ways that ordinary people can make informed choices about their retirement finances without incurring unnecessary advisory fees. This is not my way of saying that advisory fees are unnecessary – I’m saying they should only be incurred when there is a need to incur them. I appreciate this is not what many advisers want towe are disturbing people from the security of their prospective pension and offering them nothing but a speculative investment.

Part of the problem is that the CETV now has different purpose from that for which it was originally offered.The transfers now are a prelude to cashing out of a DC scheme in “freedoms”, not the preservation and consolidation of DB rights. I suspect that very little would take place without that cashability. It also is about as far as one can get from

Next we concentrate on the liquid-vapor coexistence curves for those cases (1, 2 and 6) where the HCDY fluid has a critical point. These have been derived directly from Eq. (\[ZLJ\]) by requiring the usual conditions of equal pressures and chemical potentials of both phases. The results are shown in Fig. \[Ps2\] where the numerically estimated critical points have also been included. The values of the (reduced) critical constants $\rho^*_c= 6/\pi \eta_c$, $T^*_c$ and $P^*_c= P_c d^3/\epsilon_1$ for these cases are contained in Table \[table1\]. Note that numerically we get a physical critical point for case 4, whose critical values are also included in Table \[table1\]. Sincethese critical values are very close to zero, we can not be certain that such a critical point is physical or an artifact of the numerical evaluation, since in this case we were not able to compute the corresponding coexistence curve. Finally, and as far as we are aware, there are no simulation data for the binodals of cases 1, 2 and 6 and so a comparison was not possible in this instance.

While the above mapping is already illustrative of the connection between the values of the parameters in the potential and the critical behavior of the fluid, one may also make the connection between the geometry of the potential and this critical behavior. To this end we consider the contact value of the potential $\phi_{DY}(d^+)$, the position of the minimum $r_{min}$ and the value of the potential well at such minimum $\phi_{min}=\phi_{DY}(r_{min})$. In particular, if $\phi_{DY}(d^+) >0$ then the potentialthe six cases, we performed an stochastic analysis of the potential parameters leading to a physical liquid-vapor critical point. It turns out that, within the present approximation, one may clearly identify regions in the parameters space where the corresponding potential will not produce a liquid-vapor phase transition. Although this evidence can not be considered as wholly conclusive given the approximations involved, it may certainly serve as a guide for further simulations or for the application of the HCDY fluid to model a specific system.

Finally, we should mention that a similar development can be carried out for a multi-Yukawa potential without a hard core. This only requires the use of an ’effective’ hard-core diameter for which specific recipes exist within the thermodynamic perturbation theory[@BH67; @Mansoori1; @Mansoori2; @RS; @WCS71] in

The song is not the first effort by the Muslim singer-songwriter to help refugees.

Since last year, he has been offering help through charity Small Kindness but felt the need to do something more public.

“Songs can’t change the world, no, but they can open up hearts to a more personal story. Artists are people who deal very much with emotions, with the heart. But we need fixers too, because there are a lot of broken hearts out there,” he said.

Between the fourth and eleventh days of healing, there was a 50 to 55 per cent decrease in the collagen content of the callus of the untreated diabetic animals compared with the controls. In addition, on the fourth day of healing, DNA content, an indicator of cellularity of the callus, was decreased 40 per cent in the untreated diabetic group. Between the fourth and eleventh days

Children UIViewControllers of UITabBarController overlapping Status Bar

Xcode 7
iOS Target 9.3
Swift 2

I have created a new Tabbed Application in Xcode:

I changed the background of the first template generated UIViewController super view to gray and then I run the app, as you can see in this screenshot the First UIView is overlapped by the Status Bar:

I have read many articles, particulary specified to iOS 7 regarding allocating space for the Status Bar.
I also read on apple.developer.com the following quote:
"Applications that use an opaque UINavigationController or UITabBarController automatically keep their content below the status bar."
In general this link on the apple.developer.com website does seem a bit outdated.
But, with that said, I am expecting the UITabBarController to load the tabbed children views with with space allocated for the status as displayed inpityriasis versicolor 321 (22%) and papular urticaria 120 (8.5%) and seborreheic dermatitis 3.5%.

Peri-ocular hyper pigmentation and palmoplantar hyper pigmentation were found in 21 (1.5%) and 2 (0.1%) of the students respectively. Pyoderma, ringworm infection and scabies accounted for 0.6%. 1.0% and 1.1% of diseases respectively.

could construct an epsilon-delta proof via that. However, the above expression while inutive, appears to be false (it seems to hold only if the chosen x happen to be eigenvectors unless my attempts to verify it in mathematica were somehow wrong). Does anyone know of a more intuitive proof of the statement than the one I outlined above?

A:

Let $A_0\in GL({\mathbb R}^n)$ be given, and put $${1\over\|A_0^{-1}\|}=:\alpha>0\ .$$
It follows that for all  $x$ we have
$$|x|=|A_0^{-1}A_0 x|\leq{1\over\alpha}|A_0 x|$$
and therefore $|A_0x|\geq\alpha|x|$. Assume that $\|A-A_0\|<{\alpha\over2}$. Then
$$|Ax|\geq|A_0x|-|(A-A_0)x|\geq{\alpha\over 2}|x|\ ,$$
hence such an $A$ is again regular and has an inverse $A^{-1}$ of norm $\leq{2\over\alpha}$. From
$$A^{-1}-A_0^{-1}=A^{-1}(A_0-A)A_0^{-1}$$
we now deduce
$$\|A^{-1}-A_0^{-1}\|\leq\|A^{-1}\|\>\|A_0-A\|\>\|A_0^{-1}\|\leq{2\over\alpha^2}\|A-A_0\|\ .$$
This shows that ${\rm inv}$ is even Lipschitz continuous at $A_0$.

A:

Hint:
For a small matrix $\delta$ (such that $\|A^{-1}\delta\|<1$), $$(A+\delta)^{-1}=(A(I+A^{-1}\delta))^{-1}=(I+A^{-1}\delta)^{-1}A^{-1}=(I-A^{-1}\delta+(A^{-1}\delta)^2-\cdots)A^{-1}$$ (the series can be made to converge)Heaven, or scribbling all over Peter's homework, he's never far from trouble.

cells in this population exhibit concurrent trisomies for chromosomes 5, 7 and 12, its stemline karyotype being 49,XY,t(2;12)(q23;p13),+5,+7,+12, i(15)(q10). The stable presence of these trisomies in multiple reports on LoVo sub-lines, despite its elevated chromosomal mis-segregation rate [@pone.0070445-Stewenius1], [@pone.0070445-Melcher1]--[@pone.0070445-Tsushimi1], indicates that they are important for continued proliferation. In accordance with this, we constructed a virtual, homogeneously diploid population of pre-tumour cells that were allowed to proliferate under conditions where cells having obtained one or more of these trisomes were subjected to positive selection ([Figure 8A](#pone-0070445-g008){ref-type="fig"}). Although there is ample evidence from *in vitro* and *in vivo* animal models that aneuploidy may confer an increased cellular fitness under specific conditions [@pone.0070445-Pavelka1], [@pone.0070445-Duncan1], data regarding the magnitude of positive selection based on aneuploidy in cancer cells is scarce.

Investigators said stormy weather contributed to the crash. A thunderstorm brought winds of 50 to 65 mph to the area shortly before the first 911 call came in at 7:09 p.m. A severe thunderstorm warning had been issued for Branson at 6:32 p.m. Thursday.

The boat was carrying 31 people, and 14 survived. Investigators said earlier Friday that 13 people had been killed while four were still missing. By Friday afternoon, the death toll stood at 17 after the bodies of the four remaining missing passengers were found.

Passengers on a nearby boat described the scene chaotic and said the winds picked up suddenly, sending debris flying everywhere.

to Canada’s bilateral relations with China. Today the Chinese media is citing the approval of the CNOOC acquisition of Nexen as an important step forward in the relationship. What is not emphasized is the disincentive to future investment.

Certainly it is not in China’s interest to broadcast a restrictive policy to the world, but it will be noted in China and elsewhere. It may be of interest to Canadians that restrictive policies in Australia to Chinese resource investments have significantly dropped the number of transactions. Whether coincidence or not, China is looking more actively at Africa, South America and Southeast Asia.

But back to that diving catch. In deciding in favour of the CNOOC acquisition, the Harper government made a commitment to maintaining its present policy of pro-China economic relations.What would have been the consequences to that bilateral relationship of a negative decision? In stating its opposition to controlling investment in the oilsands by foreign SOEs — and the Chinese are the major interested players — the Harper government has come down ideologically on the side of free market enterprise.

The Harper Doctrine is a positive step forward in ensuring that significant Canadian control is maintained in the oilsands sector in the face of strong investment interest by foreign SOEs. It is disappointing in that it says nothing about the situation with mixed government and shareholder companies, and we will shortly see their presence. And nothing is said about sovereign wealth funds, which are active entities of the Middle Eastern oil states. China itself has a $300 billion

Ultrafiltration (UF) is assumed to enhance urea removal during haemodialysis (HD) because of convective transport and because of contraction of urea distribution volume. However, UF-induced blood volume reduction has been hypothesized to enhance peripheral urea sequestration and post-dialysis urea rebound (PDUR), possibly reducing HD effectiveness. The effect of UF on PDUR was investigated in this study. Nine HD patients were studied on two subsequent treatment days. The first HD was performed with UF (UF-rate=0.78+/-0.27 l/h), and the second treatment without UF. Serial measurements of serum water urea nitrogen concentration, arterial blood pressures (BP), and relative blood volume changes (BV%) were obtained over the duration of HD. BP and BV% decreased with UF (BP(sys)= -9%, BP(dia)=-8%, BP(mean)=-9%, BV%=-15%) but increased

Recently, researchers have proposed a number of potential within-sector explanations based on the behavior of heterogeneous firms, involving technology choice, quality upgrading, search and bargaining, or fair wages, among other mechanisms. There is evidence at the plant level to support a within-sector link between trade and inequality.

Home minister Ramalinga Reddy also condemned the incident on the floor of the state assembly earlier on Tuesday.

“It is unfortunate that the incident has taken place. The government has initiated necessary action against the (Congress) leader,” he said.

“It is another show of hooliganism by the state’s ruling Congress. The leader is close to lawmaker Byrathi Basavaraj, who is a close aide of Siddaramaiah,” BJP spokesperson Suresh Kumar said.

The incident occurs on the heels of the son of Congress leader, MLA NA Haris, allegedly beating up a person in a pub brawl on February 17.

Haris’ son, Congress youth leader Mohammed Haris Nalapad was booked for attempt to murder and is in police custody. He was also expelled from the party for six years.


Q:

authenticate django built in user using custom field

I have model that has one to one relation with django's built in User model. Due to some reason i have added a custom field in my model with name "password_crypt" that supports "pbkdf2_sha512" which is longer than django's built-in field that is i guess 128.

from django.contrib.auth.models import User

classeverything your employees need to be successful in the endeavors you have assigned them to perform. Period. There is nothing more. Your job as a leader is to fill your day with decisions that can be traced to a benefit for the employee’s successful production of work.

The only way to successfully accomplish this is to understand the needs and desires of the generations you have un

der your roof. Again, this is a slippery path that will lead to phrases such as “That’s a complex subject.” or “it’s more complicated as that.” Poppycock I say!!

In my experience, humans are quite a simple animal. Both their true desires and their basic needs are few and all the same. Cater to the promotion of these desire and needs, even in the
