Griffin,by the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act,3 as amended by the Medical Device Amendments of 1976 (MDA).4 At the time the lawsuits were filed, the FDA had classified the bone screws as Class III devices, a categorization reserved for devices presenting "a potential unreasonable risk of illness or injury."5 Before Class III devices can be marketed, they must receive "premarket approval" from the FDA6 or, alternatively, they must qualify for FDA clearance based on a substantial equivalence determination.7 It is a criminal offense to introduce a Class III medical device into commerce without approval or clearance.8

Because premarket approval is a lengthy, formal, and thus costly process often involving clinical trials under FDA supervision,9 most new Class III devices enter the market through FDA clearance.10 New Class III


clearance. Appellants allege that the reasons for the FDA's reversal of position are unknown, and that the clearance decision was erroneous because the evidence presented to the FDA revealed no predicate device substantially equivalent to the Edwards screw on the market. Following this determination, the FDA granted S 510(k) clearance to other bone screws. Appellants allege these applications were granted due to the erroneous clearance of the Edwards screw. Appellants also claim that the FDA granted clearance to Danek Medical to market the IFS/Luque Device for non-spinal use when it knew or should have known that the screw was intended solely for spinal use. They allege that Danek first described the screw as the "Interpedicular Segmental Fixation System" but changed its name to "Warsaw Orthopedic Bone Plates" and"Warsaw Orthopedic Cancellous Bone Screws" after its initial S 510(k) application was denied. Along with the name change, Danek removed all references to use of the device in the spine, describing its application as only for long or flat bones. The FDA then granted clearance. Appellants make similar complaints regarding the S 510(k) process for some of the other screws. And furthermore, they allege that an FDA official proposed the idea of changing the intended use of the screws in order to obtain clearance and provided advice on circumventing FDA rules.

11
Appellants claim that the FDA's conduct in granting clearance for each of the screws was negligent, intentionally erroneous,14 and in violation of its own policy. They further contend that this misconduct resulted in the marketing and subsequent use

FACTS
Richey's boat and its motor were insured by Erie. Richey's complaint stated that "[o]n or about July 24, 1999," he was boating on the Illinois River when the boat's "skeg, propeller and assembly holding the propeller" came into contact with "mud and other debris" under the surface of the water. Richey claimed that "[a]s a result of this collision, * * * the underside of the housing for the propeller and attached assembly to the propeller was [sic] damaged and wrecked."
During Richey's deposition, he said that at the time of the collision, the boat was traveling "[m]aybe 15 miles an hour, if that." The boat then came to a stop in "[m]aybe 15-18 inches" of water. Richey turned the boat's motor off and got


few decades. In the 1970s, Archie Cochrane wrote "It is surely a great criticism of our profession that we have not organised a critical summary, by speciality or subspeciality, adapted periodically, of all relevant randomised controlled trials" \[[@CR14]\]. And, when setting out one of the challenges to be overcome by The Cochrane Collaboration in a *British Medical Journal* editorial in 1992, Iain Chalmers, Kay Dickersin and Tom Chalmers wrote "failing to conduct systematic, up to date reviews of controlled trials of health care may result in substantial adverse consequences for patients, practitioners, the health services, researchers, and research funding bodies" \[[@CR15]\].

Of course, individual examples of such catalogues of critical summaries of research exist from well before the late twentieth century, but these were focused on specific topics. Mostwill need to have been accumulated in systematic reviews. The last century and more, but particularly recent decades, have seen substantial developments to assist with this. Some of these can already be recognised as "historical", others will become so in the years to come, and others will fade away. However, the ongoing persistence of those wishing to provide the evidence to help people making decisions and choices about their own health and social care, and that of others, will, I hope, ensure that systematic reviews will continue to have a future, as well as a past.

I have spent most of my research career working in topics related to health and social care, for which systematic reviews play an


     The evidence is insufficient to support the conviction for possession of a

controlled substance since appellant never maintained care, custody, or control

over the cocaine that was found in a baggie in a toilet. Appellant never touched

the cocaine or the baggie containing the cocaine. In fact, the police indicated

that they never saw appellant put any item into the toilet. While the testimony

established that the officers saw appellant flush the toilet numerous times,

there is no evidence that appellant ever possessed the cocaine. Therefore, the

Court of Appeals erred in finding that the evidence is sufficient to support the

verdict.

      Also, the evidence is insufficient to support the conviction for tampering

with physical evidence since appellant did not alter or destroy the cocaine that

was foundphysical evidence that was seized by the police was never

altered or destroyed.

      Possession of a Controlled Substance – Cause Number 1397496

      The Jackson v. Virginia legal-sufficiency standard is the only standard

that a reviewing court should apply in determining whether the evidence is

sufficient to support each element of a criminal offense that the State is

required to prove beyond a reasonable doubt. Brooks v. State, 323 S.W.3d

893, 895 (Tex. Crim. App. 2010); Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307, 99 S. Ct.

2781, 61 L. Ed. 2d 560, (1979). Under this standard, evidence is insufficient

to support a conviction if, considering all the record evidence in the light most

favorable to the verdict, no rational factfinder could have found that each

essential element of the

offense under § 37.09(d)(1); (CR 9, 39-43). The indictment and the jury charge

only alleged that appellant altered or destroyed the physical evidence. (CR 9).

Therefore, the Court of Appeals erred in finding (1) that “the jury could have

found that [appellant] “conceal[ed]” the evidence, (2) that “the jury could have

reasonably inferred that appellant concealed the cocaine that the officers

recovered from the toilet, and (3) that “the jury could have reasonably found

that appellant concealed…cocaine.” Gordwin v. State, No. 01-14-00343-CR

I found out how to solve it using stack and unstack:
frame.columns = [frame.columns, ['act'] * len(frame.columns)]
frame = frame.stack(level=0, dropna=False)
frame.index.rename(
    ['organisation_id', 'group_id', 'datetime', 'entity_id'], inplace=True)
frame['act_group_mean'] = float('nan')
frame = frame.unstack('entity_id').swaplevel(

Using this gives me the following dataframe:

Calls for the Abbott government to explain why it is funding Bjorn Lomborg’s ‘Australian Consensus Centre’ are mounting, with Greens Senator Lee Rhiannon set to push the government to justify the expenditure in Senate Estimates when parliament returns.

The increased pressure comes as leaked talking points cast doubt over Coalition claims the University of Western Australia will also chip in.

The Sydney Morning Herald reports that the University of Western Australia, which will host the climate contrarian’s think tank, circulated talking points that indicate it will not be providing funds to Lomborg’s centre.

The self-titled “sceptical environmentalist” has gained notoriety for the controversial economic cost-benefit methodology he has developed to value the ‘social good’ of government policies.

Based on that methodology, the Danish statistician concludes that climate change is not a toptheir common enemies in the Federation. It also featured a remarkable attrition rate among its main characters, in violation of accepted practice for a drama of its nature. Unlike many mainstream TV dramas, the morally ambiguous or evil characters (specifically, Avon and the ruthless but charismatic Servalan) proved to be the most interesting, and both soon gathered dedicated fan followings.

I'm thinking the former was about the technological economy meeting evolutionary biology ("Do you like penicillin on your pizza?") and the latter was about the impossibility of defeating light in a race via the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics. Hey, if time stands still for photons, so too for Rainbow Brite.

After a behind-closed-doors update from Mike Pompeo and James Mattis, in which disappointment was the common theme, the Senate passed a resolution 63-37 to begin officially debating the matter on the floor.

A number of senators sought the vote, over US support for the war against Houthi rebels in Yemen as part of a pushback against Donald Trump's stance. At least 10,000 civilians have died in the conflict, which began in 2015.

The murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul in October has sparked outrage around the world and piled pressure onto Riyadh's royal family. But Mr Trump has dismissed a reported CIA assessment


angry that neither CIA Director Gina Haspel or Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats were present.

Mr Mattis made the point the US is "seldom free to work with unblemished partners," according to an excerpt of his statement released by the Pentagon.

“Long-standing relationships guide but do not blind us. Saudi Arabia, due to geography and the Iranian threat, is fundamental to maintaining regional and Israeli security, and to our interest in Mid-East stability," he said.

Having been involed with the local T party ,been to all the rallys from day 1, most of us are seniors. This past Christmas ,SOCO donated significant toys to a local Community Center serving the poorer side of Pueblo. To think seniors put their desires over kids is wrong. This dem view of Seniors is insane ! The question is ,given the inescapable math ,where are responsible dems?

While your analysis is correct, I am less sanguine about your assessment of what the senior voters will actually do. My concern is that many (too many) of them will mentally kick the can down the road and pull the level for Obama anyway, thinking that if they can keep Medicare working as-is for them, thento throw their grandchildren off the cliff, they’ll be throwing the whole country off the cliff! Greece, Spain, Italy lie below – paralyzed with 20% permanent unemployment, government unions demonstrating in the streets, standards of living plunging,…

The GOP ticket has their work cut out for them, though, given that the lower half of the income scale pays a mere 3.6% of the federal individual income tax bill. (That’s when you account for all of the handouts, tax credits, etc. that they get.) BUT, every prez election cycle we put off having this “choice” election, the more people will be free riders and the fewer paying the tax bills. Better do it now rather than later. It could be our last chance.

My thought: the GOP ticket should promise that

PRES. BARACK OBAMA: I am less interested in passing out blame than I am
in learning from and correcting these mistakes to make us safer; for,
ultimately, the buck stops with me.

MR. DAVID GREGORY: But first, good morning live from Los Angeles. We
have come here to put a spotlight on a state that is on the leading edge
of this country's economic downturn. We'll speak exclusively to Governor
Arnold Schwarzenegger in just a few minutes.

But amid all the political tension in this midterm election year, there
is some news developing this weekend back in Washington. The president
released a statement just yesterday standing behind the Senate Majority
Leader Harry Reid after some raciallynow, and so they're going to the polls, they're going to
their town halls, they're going to the streets of their--of the country
and they're saying, "Enough." And they're putting the leadership on
notice that, "Pay attention to us. Listen to us. We're telling you
what, what we want and what we don't want." And yet, this administration
and this Democratic Party has a tin ear to the fact that people out there
are hurting. We haven't created jobs, and yet...

MR. GREGORY: Right.

MR. STEELE: ...now we're going to have another conversation about jobs?
That should have been the conversation on the first day, not, you know,
the things that the, the administration's pursued.

MR. GREGORY: Chairman Kaine, it's a very difficult year to be an
incumbent party, as the Democrats are.

GOV. KAINE: Well, David, it's a challenging one.


being
treated exactly the same way...

GOV. KAINE: And so this is an instance where the president's doing the
right thing. The Republicans are just looking for an excuse to raise
money and politicize it. This president is going to unify Americans and
keep us safe...

MR. GREGORY: We're...

GOV. KAINE: ...than play political games.

MR. GREGORY: We're going to leave it there. The debate will continue in
this hot political year.

MR. GREGORY: ...and Chairman Kaine. We will come back after this. And
have more with Chairman Steele, I should point out, in our MEET THE PRESS
Take Two Web extra. It's up this afternoon. You can also read excerpts
of "Right Now: A 12-Step Program for Defeating the Obama Agenda." Plus,
look for updates from me throughout the week. It's all at our Web site,
mtp.msnmbc.com.

And up next, yesterday I satto go
and do--take care of us.

MR. GREGORY: Is that how you think about healthcare reform as something
that ultimately would beat up on California?

GOV. SCHWARZENEGGER: Yes, it is. Right now it is. And I just cannot
imagine why we would have, like I said, you know, for instance, you know,
our senators and congressional people, how they would vote for something
like that where they're representing Nebraska and not us. And by the
way, as I said in my State of the State, that's the biggest rip-off. I
mean, that is against the law to buy a vote. I mean...

MR. GREGORY: The federal government will pay for their Medicaid
expansion.

GOV. SCHWARZENEGGER: "I'm holding out my vote unless I get some extra
kind of benefits here." I mean, if you do that in Sacramento, you know,

is 17.3 percent. People have given up,
they're no longer even trying to get jobs. That's even worse. But that
there's a whole anti-incumbent fervor out there, and there are more
Democrats at stake than Republicans. So the Democratic Party is facing
the, the reality that in 2010, if it doesn't start to change, they are
going to feel the anger, the anger that the tea party advocates really
epitomize.

MR. TODD: And, you know, really quickly, David, watching your interview
with Governor Schwarzenegger, it reminded me it's almost as like could
that be President Obama in six years? You saw this frustration in
Governor Schwarzenegger. He came in on the recall effort. One could
argue it was sort of a precursor of this tea party movement, this idea
that people are sick and tired of government not working herewould be running if they
thought they were going to win.

MR. TODD: I mean, and the fact is the landscape stinks, and it is
because you have a combination of things. You have Democratic base not
fired up the way they were in 2006 and 2008. Independents, which you
just mentioned about that the White House realizes, they're disappointed.
Now, the question is, do they show up and suddenly vote with the
Republicans, which then would create a Republican wave and a tsunami and
they probably would take control of everything. Or do they just not show
up at all out of frustration at the entire system?

MR. GREGORY: Now let's--as we talk about Republicans a little bit,
because Republicans can't necessarily take all of this to the bank. If
you look at the map that will show of

primary. It's going to be kind of a messy primary. That's Barack
Obama's Senate seat. So you put all of those together, and you see why
Republicans think they can pick four or five Senate seats up. The
problem Republicans have, though, is that they have their own
retirements. They had Kit Bond in Missouri, they had the Ohio retirement
of George Voinovich, they have Judd Gregg in New Hampshire. So they have
their own vulnerability. So them having these huge gains seems a little
bit out of the realm.

Mice that were exposed to lubricants with high osmolality were more susceptible to infections. Many water-based lubricants on the market have high osmolality, as they contain large amounts of ingredients such as propylene glycol, glycerin and sorbitol, which contribute to high numbers of moles of solutes per kg of solute.
A preferred type of personal lubricant is silicone-based. Silicone-based personal lubricants are very lubricious and do not dry out. Further, they are hypoallergenic, safe to use with condoms and are less damaging to cells because of their low osmolality. However, the main drawback of silicone-based lubricants is that they are greasy and can be difficult to

Review Reduces Weapons, Maintains Deterrence, Obama Says

By Donna MilesAmerican Forces Press Service

WASHINGTON, April 6, 2010  The Nuclear Posture Review recognizes that nuclear terrorism by violent extremists and nuclear proliferation to more states – not a nuclear exchange between nations – pose the greatest threat to U.S. and global security, President Barack Obama noted in a statement issued today.

Obama called the review, released today, a major step toward fulfilling his pledge to reduce the role of nuclear weapons in U.S. national security strategy while sustaining a safe, secure and effective deterrent as long as nuclear weapons exist.

While acknowledging the threat of nuclear weapons getting into the wrong hands, the review recognizes that the national security of the United States and its allies and partners “can be


This is an application for partial funding of a FASEB Summer Research Conference on "Neural Mechanisms in Cardiovascular Regulation" to take place in Snowmass, Colorado on July 20-25, 2001. The conference will be the 8th in a series of FASEB Conferences held once every 2-3 years on this topic. Neural mechanisms play a major role in regulation of arterial pressure, modulation of cardiac and renal function, and occurrence of syncope, cardiac arrhythmias, and sudden death in pathological states. The conference will be of interest to both basic scientists interested in fundamental neural mechanisms, integrative physiologists, and clinicians interested in mechanisms of cardiovascular dysregulation in disease. The goal of the conference is to bring together investigators and trainees from a variety of scientific areas to discuss important aspects offor his portrayal of the title character on MTV's, The Hard Times of RJ Berger.

Paul first gained wide notice for his numerous appearances on TV's The Rosie O'Donnell Show after Rosie O'Donnell discovered his unique talents for impersonating Frank Sinatra and Ethel Merman, at age 8.

Starting out as child actor in the NYC theater scene, Paul has appeared in over 100 theatrical productions. He has shared the stage with such greats as Mickey Rooney in The Wizard of Oz and Stephanie Mills in the original "Paper Mill Playhouse" production of Stephen Schwartz's Children of Eden. Iacono can be heard on the original cast recording. Other theatrical credits include Mame with Christine Ebersole, Noël Coward's Sail Away with Elaine Stritch and Marian Seldes, and John Guare's Landscape of the

Due to the tendency of recirculated water to become contaminated during the operation of evaporative heat exchange equipment, it is typically necessary to treat the recirculated water to maintain its quality within acceptable levels. Generally, this treatment entails several different processes.
The level of dissolved solids present in the recirculated water is typically controlled through a process of bleeding off a portion of the high dissolved solids containing recirculating water and replacing it with fresh make-up water. In cases where simple bleed and fresh water replenishment is insufficient to control the scaling or corrosive tendency of the recirculating water, specialized scale and corrosion inhibiting water treatment chemicals are also used. Microbiological growth is generally difficult to effectively and efficiently control within evaporative


transport corresponded to low-level transport in the polar front region[@b21], which was located further south in winter than in other seasons[@b22]. Using fine grid resolution, above the boundary layer, a large amount of the BCA was transported to the Arctic regardless of the longitude ([Fig. 2d--f](#f2){ref-type="fig"}). This indicates that BCA emitted from continents was effectively carried up by the convection around lows and frontal systems, and thus reached the Arctic. Due to the dependency of simulated BCA transport on the grid resolution, the BCA concentrations increased in the Arctic with increasing grid resolution. As a result, the ratio of the vertically accumulated mass concentration of BCA (column BCA) in the Arctic to global column BCA mass loading simulated by the 3.5-km resolution model was 4.2-times higher than thatof the numerical experiments, analyses. All co-authors participated in discussions over the results and commented on the original manuscript.

Coronavirus: Ivory Coast tests woman for China virus Published duration 26 January Related Topics Coronavirus pandemic

image copyright EPA image caption An unnamed Ivorian woman who travelled from China is being tested for the coronavirus

Health officials are dealing with a suspected case of coronavirus in Ivory Coast, the country's health ministry has announced.

An unnamed student, who returned to the West African country from Beijing on Saturday, is undergoing further tests after showing flu-like symptoms.

If confirmed, it will be the first case of the deadly virus in Africa.

The virus, which first emerged in the Chinese city of Wuhan, has spread to over 2,000 people and killed 56.

The 34-year-old woman is currently in isolation, officials said.

The traveller has lived in China for the past five years, according to the statement released$|d^{j_1}_{0,k_1}(\beta)|^2$ as a function of $\beta$ for $j_1=2$ is displayed in Ref. [@2019_JCP_Croft] (see also Fig. S1 in SM [@SM]).

outcome. Compared to $|k_1|=2$, the ICS for $k_1=0$ is about 12-fold larger at the peak of the resonance ($E_C=0.3$ cm$^{-1}$). Since the projections of the final rotational states are $k'_1=0$ and $k'_2=k_2=0$ due to $j'_1=0$ and $j'_2=j_2=0$, collisions with $k_1=0$ conserve helicity as $k_1+k_2=k'_1+k'_2=0$ and the resonance enhancement can be attributed to a helicity conserving transition. It is worth pointing out that results in \[fig\_I12F10\_steric\] (a) do not reflect the full potential of stereodynamic control. If it is possible to specifically prepare an initial HCl rotational state with $k_1=2$ or $k_1=-2$, or their linear combination, the resonance can be completely switched off. Recent advances in SARP techniques have made progress in this direction [@SARP_2; @SARP_HD-He]. Indeed, preparation of a phase-locked superposition of $k_1=\pm 1$ states, $\sqrt{1/2}(|j_1=2,k_1=1\ >+\ |j_1=2,k_1=-1>)$,termed X-SARP, was demonstrated for HD [@SARP_HD-He], expanding the range of control achievable using SARP techniques. The range of control expands into the non-resonant region for the DCS as shown in the Supplemental Material [@SM].

The crucial difference here in comparison with \[fig\_I12F10\_ICS\] is the enhanced incoming [*f*]{}-wave contribution at around 0.4 cm$^{-1}$ in addition to a strong [*p*]{}-wave resonance at about 0.15 cm$^{-1}$ leading to two prominent peaks. While the two resonances appear as distinct peaks in close proximity we note that the [*p*]{}-wave peak has a small contribution from the [*f*]{}-wave

foods industry is booming. Retail sales of organic products have grown
steadily for the past ten years. Conservative estimates show a compounded
annual growth of 20% each year, or a doubling every five years. The
past several years has also shown a shift in availability of organics.
Ten years ago, organics were most often found in farmer's markets and
health food stores. Now they fill aisles at traditional supermarkets
like Kirks.

According
to the "Organic Consumer Profile" by the Hartman Group, almost
one-third of the U.S. population currently buys organically grown food
products. Another 60% does not, but would be willing to try them. Light
organic buyers account for 29% of the U.S. population, while 3% are

surgical sites (left side or right side). In model 4, we further adjusted for laboratory measures (e.g. hemoglobin, serum calcium, serum phosphorus, albumin, coagulation factors, and blood lipids). Primary analyses were based on tests for trends according to the age or radial artery diameter categories.

All data were analyzed using SPSS 25.0 software (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA). In the baseline characteristics table, all the continuous variables with non-normal distribution are expressed as medians and interquartile ranges (IQR) and were tested by the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Categorical variables are shown as the percentage of patients per group. All the categorical variables were analyzed with the Chi-squared test. The univariate and multivariable logistic regression models were used to identify risk factors of functional maturation. Logistic regression estimated the odds ratios (ORs)\[[@CR22]\]. Previous studies reported that elderly patients with RCAVFs had lower maturation \[[@CR10]--[@CR14]\]. A meta-analysis showed that elderly patients had a 50% increased RCAVF failure risk when compared with non-elderly patients \[[@CR10]\]. Older patients with higher intima-media width and arterial rigidity showed increased vessel narrowing and loss of vascular elasticity \[[@CR23]\]. The prevalence of diabetes and peripheral vascular disease increases in older individuals, and when compared with subjects without chronic kidney diseases, dialysis patients had a higher incidence of diabetes and peripheral vascular disease \[[@CR24]\] that was in turn associated with increasing immaturity. Previous several comparative studies \[[@CR25]--[@CR27]\] supported pre-operative ultrasound scanning. European Best Practice Guidelines suggest its routine use (level II evidence) \[[@CR21]\]. Several meta-analysis \[[@CR28]--[@CR30]\] including only one of the few randomized clinical trials (RCTs) appeared


what is essential for the increasingly ageing dialysis patient population are imperative for accurate medical decision-making.

In practice, the diameters of the radial artery and cephalic vein are evaluated by preoperative duplex ultrasound. In our study, all ultrasound examinations were carried out by the same sonographer. Niek et al. study \[[@CR31]\] indicated that the arterial and venous diameter measurements showed excellent intra- and inter-observer agreement and duplex ultrasonography was a reliable imaging modality to support AVF surgery planning. There are no definite criteria for determining a suitable artery for AVF. Radial artery diameter within a range of 1.5 to \> 2 mm is usually selected. However, there are no data concerning the relationship of radial artery diameter with functional maturation. Our study shows that there is a linear relationship between radialartery diameter and incident immaturity. This may be beneficial in operational risk assessments and medical decision-making.

Conclusions {#Sec11}
===========

Our findings suggest that the risks of immaturity of RCAVF were linearly associated with increasing age and reducing radial artery diameter. Each 20-year increase in age (risk increased by more than 54%) and a smaller radial artery diameter (risk increased by more than34%) were associated with a higher incidence of immaturity. A careful selection of patients in different age groups who are suitable for AVFs may be helpful to improve functional maturation. Some limitations of our study must be acknowledged. Firstly, this study had a low number of patients in some groups and further studies should be performed with larger sample sizes. Secondly, many potential factors should be considered that were not

Apparently, it’s not the merits or facts of the case, but rather how likeable the parties are, that determines whom American public opinion supports.

[Vitrectomy in the treatment of endophthalmitis].
To present our experience with the surgical management of endophthalmitis. The results of 27 pars plana vitrectomies in 19 patients with clinical evidence of endophthalmitis were analysed. The endophthalmitis was considered as endogenous in 4 cases and exogenous in 15 cases. With the use of vitrectomy good anatomical and functional results were obtained. Pre-operative visual acuity was worse than 1/50 in 16 patients and ranged from 1/50 to 4/50 in 3 patients. Postoperative visual acuity was worse than 1/50 in 7 patients, ranged from 1/50 to 4/50 in 3 patients and was better than 5/50 in 9 patients. Pars plana vitrectomy in the management of endophthalmitis makes it possible to collect material for culture, removal of viable organisms and inflammatory products.

This is not even to mention the absolute savagery of such attacks. Tortures the likes of which we associate with Ghenghis Khan, the Vietcong, ISIS, or the Bolshevik Revolution pale in comparison to what happens routinely in South Africa to white farmers. Gang rape is standard practice and victims are usually shot execution-style after the perpetrators have satisfied their craving for violence.

Tn5 carries a streptomycin resistance determinant downstream from the kanamycin resistance gene.
In Rhizobium meliloti, Tn5 conferred resistance not only to kanamycin but to streptomycin, as well, in Escherichia coli, however only to kanamycin. Using in vitro recombinant DNA techniques, it was shown that the streptomycin resistance determinant was located downstream from the kanamycin resistance gene in the unique central region of Tn5. Expression of various cloned fragments of Tn5 suggested that both kanamycin and streptomycin resistance genes were transcribed from the same promoter. E. coli mutants allowing the expression of streptomycin resistance from Tn5 were isolated. The differential expression of the streptomycin resistance gene provides a simple selection/counterselection criterion, using only streptomycin in transfer experiments of Tn5 between E. coli and R. meliloti.Muskallonge Lake

Muskallonge Lake is a  lake in Luce County in the Upper Peninsula of the U.S. state of Michigan.  Approximately  long and  wide, it is separated from Lake Superior to the north by a quarter-mile-wide strip of land that is the site of Muskallonge Lake State Park. Relatively shallow, the lake's deepest point is  below the water surface. The lake sits at  above sea level,  above Lake Superior.

Muskallonge Lake was created during the retreat of the Laurentide Ice Sheet, some 6,000 to 4,000 years ago. Since that time, it has been cut off from Lake Superior by a strip of land averaging one quarter of one mile wide. The surface sediments in the area of the lake consist of glacial drift


Temperatures closer to the coast will be a few degrees warmer, and areas farther inland will be a few degrees cooler.

However there’s a pretty broad discrepancy in the forecast models in how cold it’s really going to get. The GFS model forecasts, for example, is the coldest with respective low temperatures of 25 and 18 degrees for the two mornings. The European model predicts 29 and 26 degrees. The mesoscale NAM model, which has higher resolution, forecasts 26 and 23 degrees.

The European forecast model is not as aggressive with the cold as other models. (Weather Bell)

So what we can say is that it’s going to be brutally cold on both mornings, and on Tuesday morning there’s the potential for record cold. The coldest temperature recorded on that dateINTRODUCTION

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), a human paramyxovirus, is the most important cause of viral lower respiratory tract disease in infants and children world-wide. Primary RSV bronchiolitis causes substantial morbidity, mortality and cost with hospital admission rates of about 2·5% \[[@b1]\]. A high proportion of infants will develop recurrent episodes of wheeze, cough and asthma-like symptoms after recovery from bronchiolitis \[[@b2]\]. Interest has therefore focused on the role of the host immune response in the pathogenesis of bronchiolitis and its clinical sequelae.

The immunopathogenesis of RSV bronchiolitis plays an important part in the clinical manifestations of the primary infection. Evidence from human and mouse studies suggest that lymphocytes clear RSV during infection. Children with cell-mediated immunodeficiencies take longer to terminate infection with RSV \[[@b3]\]. In the mouse model, Graham *et


in phosphate-buffered saline (pH 7·2) supplemented with 0·45% human albumin (PBSA). Lymphocytes were obtained by density gradient separation (Histopaque: Sigma, Poole, UK) and resuspended in PBSA to a concentration of 10--20 × 10^9^/l.

Flow cytometric acquisition and analysis
----------------------------------------

1 × 10^6^ lymphocytes were incubated with monoclonal antibodies to CD45-ECD (Beckman Coulter), CD3- RPE Cy5 (DakoCytomation, UK), CD4-FITC or PE (CaltagMedsystems, UK), CD8-Texas Red (Caltag), CD95-FITC (DakoCytomation), and TRAIL R-PE (Pharmingen) in four colour combinations. All incubations were in the dark at room temperature for 15 min. The stained cells were then washed twice in PBSA and analysed on a Beckman Coulter Epics XL flow cytometer using System II software. A standard lymphocyte gate was set using low forward and side scatter properties. The position of the positive regions were setto ten thousand years ago, by the development of settled agricultural communities in some areas.

In 2700 B.C.E. , the first genuinely urban civilization in the Indus Valley and western India

India

emerged. After its disappearance around 1500 B.C.E. , there was a bewildering variety of princely states and kingdoms, small and large, throughout the subcontinent, creating a long history of war and conquest that was punctuated by foreign invasions and the birth of some of the world's largest religions: Buddhism, Jainism, Hinduism, and Sikhism.

Despite the extent of the Empire of Asoka (272–232 B.C.E. ) and the Mughal Empire (1526–1707), it was left to the last foreign invaders, the British, to establish a unified empire that covered most of the subcontinent during its final century.

India was ruled by the British government


Kashmiri Muslims for a union of their state with Pakistan, a Khalistan movement among Panjabi Sikhs, and a guerilla movement seeking independence for all the Naga tribes in the northeast.

Ethnic Relations. India is home to several thousand ethnic groups, tribes, castes, and religions. The castes and subcastes in each region relate to each other through a permanent hierarchical structure, with each caste having its own name, traditional occupation, rank, and distinctive subculture. Tribes usually do not have a caste hierarchy but often have their own internal hierarchical organization. The pastoral and foraging tribes are relatively egalitarian in their internal organization.

India is no stranger to ethnic conflict, especially religious wars. Nevertheless, in most parts of the

country there has long beena local intercaste and intertribal economy that commonly is based on barter or the exchange of goods and services; since this system has satisfied economic necessities at least partially, ethnic conflict commonly has been dampened or kept under control because of the mutual benefits these economic arrangements provide.

Urbanism, Architecture, and the Use of Space

In the Indus civilization of 2700 to 1500 B.C.E. , India developed one of the earliest urban societies in the world, along with an extensive trading economy to support it.

The walled citadels in some early cities developed into elaborate palisades, walls, and moats to protect the multitude of Iron Age and medieval cities throughout much of the country. The towns and cities are of eight historic types: (1) ancient pilgrimage centers, such as Madurai; (2)


local market towns, roughly one every 20 miles; (3) medieval fortified towns, such as Gwalior; (4) ancient and medieval seaports, such as Bharuch (Broach); (5) military cantonments first set up by the British, such as Pune; (6) modern administrative centers such as New Delhi; (7) new industrial centers, such as Jamshedpur; and (8) great modern metropoles such as Bombay (Mumbai) and Calcutta (Kolkata).

Architecture developed distinct regional styles that remain apparent. These styles reflect the relative influence of the medieval Tamil kingdoms, Persian and Turkic invaders in the north, Portuguese and British Christianity, and all the distinctive features of the religious monuments of Jainism, Buddhism, Islam, and medieval Hinduism.

The landscape is dotted with over half a million villages, and each region has distinctive forms of domestic architecture and villageor to dismiss a problematic state government and declare "president's rule."

Social Problems and Control. Indians have lived under the rule of law since ancient times. Hindu law was codified over two thousand years ago in the books called Dharmasastras. There is now one legal hierarchy throughout the land, with the Supreme Court at its head. Legal procedure is based on the Indian Penal Code (IPC) which was drafted in the mid-nineteenth century, and the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1973. The constitution promulgated in 1950 went further than any other South Asian country has gone in curtailing the influence of traditional legal systems that in practice applied only to the followers of a particular religion, whether Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, Christian, Jewish, or Parsi.

It is said that a woman must first obey her father, then her husband, and then her son; this seems to be the normal pattern as she goes through life. The opinion of the male head of household is especially important in the arrangement of marriages, because in most religious communities these are effectively marriages between two families. At such times, romantic preferences get little consideration. Since it is the male head who typically controls the family's finances, it is he who pays or receives a dowry at the time of a child's marriage. Although older women may be very influential behind the scenes, they wield little legal authority in property and marriage matters.

Marriage, Family, and Kinship

Marriage. Although the different regions and religions have considerablebranches of major universities within their states. In 1996 there were 6.4 million university students enrolled throughout the country, of whom 5.7 million were undergraduates and 2.2 million were women. There are 418 institutions that grant degrees in engineering and technology and 1,029 that award diplomas.

Adult education programs combat illiteracy, lack of knowledge about family planning, and inadequate understanding of new farming techniques. Such programs tend to be more accessible in urban areas. A major hurdle has been the language of university instruction. The central universities generally teach in English and produce graduates with internationally acceptable credentials, but most of the smaller universities teach in the local (state) language so that their students' skills are not easily transferable even to other parts of the country. The opportunities for

Graphic Arts. India has a multiplicity of visual arts extending back over four thousand years. Early painting has not survived, but urban architecture and some small sculptures have. Most of the thousands of stamp seals that have been found are masterpieces of glyphic art, showing the large animals of northwestern India in miniature relief.

The main visual arts arose in the context of religious worship. Sanskrit handbooks still survive stipulating the rules for the production of Hindu religious statues, temples, and paintings. Distinctive regional styles of temple architecture are a feature of the landscape and a clear marker* FROM tblteacher WHERE teacherName='$uname'

*Mediator variables (needs)*: morbidity level (no cardiovascular risk factor^2^ or chronic disease^3^, at least one cardiovascular risk factor, one chronic disease with/without risk factor, at least two chronic diseases with/without risk factor), perceived health (poor/average, good, very good, excellent).

*Predictors (predisposing/enabling factors)*: year (2005 or 2010), SES (very low, low, high, very high), type of PHC (older model, newer model).

*Interaction terms:* year × SES, year × type of PHC, SES × type of PHC, SES × year × type of PHC.

For these analyses, only respondents who had declared a PHC source were included (*n* = 12951). Outcome variables therefore did not include "at least one visit to PHC source" as this was the criterion to define users of a PHC source. The analyses were performedusing the 2010 type and comparing results for the same clinics in time; for example, a clinic that had become a NC in 2010 was included in the NC group in 2005.

Finally, we analyzed the association of SES with frequency of utilization of PHC using the following outcome variable for users of PHC services only (*n* = 12951): "at least six visits to PHC source during the past two years" (yes-no). There is no consensus in the literature about the definition of frequent users of PHC \[[@CR47]\]. Some authors choose a number of visits \[[@CR48]\], while others prefer to establish a threshold in the distribution in order to allow better comparison between settings \[[@CR49]\]. Limitations related to our questionnaire (see Additional file [1](#MOESM1){ref-type="media"}) and distribution of our data pointed towards


it has improved slightly for the other SES groups.Fig. 3Probability of affiliation to a family doctor according to socio-economic status (old models of PHC)Fig. 4Probability of affiliation to a family doctor according to socio-economic status (new models of PHC)

Finally, we examined the likelihood of having six or more visits to the PHC source among those respondents who had at least one visit to PHC (Table [5](#Tab5){ref-type="table"}). We found no evidence that the likelihood of having six or more visits to PHC had changed between the 2005 and 2010 samples for all levels of SES combined. Likelihood of high frequency of use (six or more visits) decreased concurrently with SES but was only significant for the very high group (OR 0.69, CI 0.53-0.90). Observed differences between SES groups remained stableequity of PHC delivery on that important aspect. Official registration with a family physician was first implemented in new models, which may mean that the registration process itself could lead to increased inequities in attributing patients to physicians.

Our analysis supports previous Canadian and international studies which suggested that removing financial barriers to healthcare is insufficient to ensure equity in utilization of services \[[@CR2], [@CR4]--[@CR6], [@CR50]--[@CR54]\]. However, since the literature is relatively scarce about the equity implications of health reforms in countries with universal healthcare systems \[[@CR25], [@CR55]\] and methodologies differ significantly, it is difficult to make comparisons on that important aspect of our study.

The differences we have observed between SES levels for ER use cannot be explained only by higher disease prevalence since our analysis controls for a


the reform, but that inequities may have increased within the newer models. More studies will be needed in order to understand the impact of the organizational model of PHC source on equity, but we feel that a structural reform in itself may not be sufficient to address existing inequities. Demand-side issues should also be addressed by increasing public awareness, thus improving health literacy and the process of care-seeking. As Quebec is entering a new era of reforms and especially of its PHC system once again, lessons can be learned from the previous reform that appears to have failed to improve equity. An equity-focused approach should be central to any future healthcare reform.

These nematodes were reared on a fungal mat of *Botrytis cinerea* on potato dextrose agar (PDA) media at 25 ± 1°C and 40% humidity for several generations and were identified by morphological characteristics and genetic differences. Pinewood chips were collected from the PWN‐infected pine trees and healthy pine trees (*Pinus densiflora*, located in Mt. Wora, Jinju‐si, Gyeongsangnam‐do, South Korea). PWN-infected pine trees were sampled based on the evidence of symptoms (complete browning of needles) of PWD throughout the entire crown. Pinewood samples were collected by drilling into thetrunk 30 cm below and above breast height with a bit with an 8 mm diameter hole to a depth of 100 mm, gathering 20 g per tree and identifying the presence or absence of *B*. *xylophilus* in the pinewood from each tree using the Baermann funnel method. The PWN-infected pinewood samples used in this study consisted of 308 ± 51 (mean ± SD) individuals of *B*. *xylophilus* per 10 g of pinewood. All sampling was authorized by the National Institute of Forest Science.

Then, protein samples were electrophoretically separated on an SDS-PAGE gel (10% Tris-HCl; Bio-Rad, Hercules, California) and transferred overnight to nitrocellulose membranes (0.2 μm pores; Millipore, Bedford, Massachusetts). The membranes were incubated in 5% dry, nonfat milk blocking solution (Tris-buffered saline \[TBS\], 0.1% Tween 20) for 1 h and then incubated at 4°C overnight with primary anti-SGK1 (1:400, Novagen), anti-PSD-95 (1:1000, Invitrogen), anti-GluR1 (1:1000, Abcam), anti-GR (1:1000, Santa Cruz), and anti-GAPDH (1:10000, Advanced Immunochemical) in 1% dry nonfat milk TBST. After 3 x 15 min washes membranes were incubated for 1 h with secondary, horseradish peroxidase (HRP) conjugated antibodies (1:10000, Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, California). Following 3 x 15 min washes in TBST, blots were developed using a chemilluminescence kit (Pierce, Rockford, Illinois)ImmunoResearch and Invitrogen, respectively), and confocal images were collected. For quantitation of pCREB levels, a region of interest (ROI = GFP positive neurons) was selected using the ImageJ program (ROI manager), first on the GFP image (green channel). The same ROI mask was then applied to the corresponding pCREB image (red channel) for quantitation of pCREB signal intensity. Measured intensity values were corrected for the background nonspecific autofluorescence.

In doing so it actually does violence to the way in which class consciousness amongst a propertyless working class arises. Councilism blamed the Bolshevik Party as the agent of proletarian defeat and, councilists have gone on to argue that this was because the Bolsheviks were either insufficiently clear politically and programmatically or were even, in some versions, always counter-revolutionary in their ideas.

in something _more_ than mere procedural consistency. Equality is something that applies to substantive empirical facts, it does not apply to procedures (at least, not as anything distinct from consistency). There really isn’t any such thing as a pre-factual equality. Equality either means nothing (that is, it means the same thing as consistency without remainder) or it means that particular facts (distinctives) are to be _suppressed_. So procedural equality is (in my understanding of things) a chimera that always leads to substantive equality.

It is a very important point, but not one I’ve found a way to communicate transparently.

The requirement of both protein and RNA synthesis and activation of a cAMP-dependent protein kinase (A-kinase) was demonstrated following inhibition of this regulation by cycloheximide, actinomycin D and KT5720 (a specific A-kinase inhibitor), respectively. In addition, the cytokine interleukin 1 beta (IL-1 beta) which induced NOS activity with subsequent NO synthesis in vascular smooth muscle, also caused a similar upregulation of ET receptors. This effect was attenuated in the presence of the specific NOS inhibitor, L-NAME. To assess the possible functional consequences of this NO-mediated upregulation, the effect of SNAP pretreatment on isolated vessel reactivity was determined. In both superior mesenteric artery and thoracic aorta rings, SNAP pretreatment caused a significant increase in the maximal force of contraction to ET-1. Collectively, these data suggest that

The resultant diffusion processes can adaptively switch between forward and backward diffusion process.

It should be noted that all the above mentioned diffusion processes are handcrafted models. It is a generally difficult task to design a good-performing PDE for a specific image processing problem because good insights into this problemdeblocking;

Proposed reaction diffusion process
===================================

We start with conventional nonlinear diffusion processes, then propose a training based reaction diffusion model for image restoration. Finally we show the relations between the proposed model and existing image restoration models.

Perona and Malik diffusion model
--------------------------------

In the whole paper, we stick to the fully discrete setting, where images are represented as column vectors, , $u \in
{\mathbb{R}}^{N}$. Therefore, the discrete version of the well-known Perona-Malik type nonlinear diffusion process [@PMmodel] can be formulated as the following discrete PDE with an explicit finite difference scheme $$\label{pmmodel}
\vspace*{-0.2cm}
  \hspace*{-0.3cm}\frac{u_{t+1} - u_t}{\Delta t} = -{\sum\limits_{i = \{x,y\}}^{}}\nabla_i^\top \Lambda (u_t) \nabla_i u_t
  \doteq -{\sum\limits_{i = \{x,y\}}^{}}\nabla_i^\top \phi(\nabla_i u_t) \,,$$ where matrices $\nabla_x$ and $\nabla_y


model is fixed to be a unique one. This clearly restricts the model performance, as demonstrated in Sec. \[sec:denoising\].

There are also few preliminary works, , [@liu2010learning] to go beyond traditional PDEs of the form , and propose to learn optimal PDEs for image restoration via optimal control. However, the investigated PDE model in [@liu2010learning] is too simple to generate a promising performance, as they only optimize the linear combination coefficients of a few predefined terms, which depend on selected derivative filters.

The proposed diffusion model also bears an interesting link to the convolutional networks (CNs) employed for image restoration problems [@CNNdenoising]. One can see that each iteration (stage) of our proposed diffusion process involves the convolution operation with a set of linear filters, and thus it can be treatedas a convolutional network. The architecture of our proposed network is shown in Figure \[fig:recurrentCNN\], where one can see that it is not a pure feed-forward network any more, because it has a feedback step. Therefore, the structure of our CN model is different from conventional feed-forward networks. Due to this feedback step, it can be categorized into recurrent neural networks [@graves2009offline]. Moreover, the nonlinearity (, influence functions in the context of nonlinear diffusion) in our proposed network are trainable. However, conventional CNs make use of fixed activation function, , ReLU functions or sigmoid functions.

Learning
========

In this paper, we train our models for two representative image restoration problems: (1) denoising of images corrupted by Gaussian noise and (2) JPEG blocking artifacts reduction, which is formulated as a non-smooth problem.


1s.

We make a run time comparison to other denoising algorithms based on strictly enforced single-threaded CPU computation ( , start Matlab with -singleCompThread) for a fair comparison, see Table \[run time\]. We only present the results of some selective algorithms, which either have the best denoising result or run time performance. We refer to [@CSF2014] for a comprehensive run time comparison of various algorithms[^5].

We see that our TRD model is generally faster than the CSF model with the same model capacity. It is reasonable, because in each stage the CSF model involves additional DFT and inverse DTF operations, , our model only requires a portion of the computation of the CSF model. Even though the BM3D is a non-local model, it still possesses high computation efficiency. In contrast,Q:

Joining multiple tables with multiple dates

I have a master table which is like this
customer_id  Customer_name
1             A
2             B
3             C
4             D

And I have multiple user activity tables. I am giving only an example of 2 such tables but there are like 20 such tables
Table 1:
customer_id     activity_date   No_of_likes
