55 years and older, were invited to participate in 1989. Of the 10,275 invited subjects, 7,983 entered the study (78%). A second cohort of 3,011 persons (67% response), was enrolled between 2000 and 2001. In 2006 a third cohort, with 3,932 persons of 45 years and older, was enrolled (65% response). This resulted in an overall study population of 14,926 individuals, aged 45 years and older.

Participants were visited at home at baseline for a standardized interview on health status. Subsequently, a physical examination followed during a visit at the study centre. These interviews and visits were repeated approximately every four years (Supplementary Figure [1](#MOESM1){ref-type="media"}^[@CR15]^). The Rotterdam Study has been approved by the institutional review board (Medical Ethics Committee) of the Erasmus Medical Center and by the review board oflimit changed from 3.60 to 3.50 (for the NLR), from 225 to 221 (for the PLR) and from 1112 to 1061 (for the SII), respectively. Individuals with an elevated CRP at the first measurement showed a decrease in the NLR levels (median −15.5%), whereas for individuals with a normal CRP, the median NLR increased with 6.3%.

Discussion {#Sec12}
==========

In the past few years, novel inflammatory markers for prognosis in patients with cancer and cardiovascular disease have been described in the literature. The NLR, PLR and the SII are all composites of blood cell counts, which are standard, low-cost measurements that are already incorporated into daily clinical practice and can be calculated easily from these widely available current measures.

However, the reference limits of these white blood --cell based inflammatory markers in the


\<15.0 years old (3201 patients), 1186 were diagnosed with TM (37.05%). Patients aged 25.0--44.9 years old were commonly reported with HbE/β-thalassaemia (707/1873, 37.75%), while patients aged ≥55.0 years old were commonly diagnosed with HbH disease (86/180, 47.78%). These observations were consistent with the presentation of the clinical diagnosis; TM presents early in life, the severity of HbE/β-thalassaemia ranges from mild to severe, while HbH disease is non-transfusion dependent thalassaemia (non-TDT), and patients are most likely to survive longer due to the lower risk of iron overload. [Figure 2](#F2){ref-type="fig"} shows the peak of patient distribution corresponds to the age group of 10.0--14.9 years for TM, 15.0--19.9 years for HbE/β-thalassaemia, and 10.0--14.9 years for HbH disease and β-thalassaemia intermedia, respectively.

In relation to ethnicity, patients with HbE/β-thalassaemia were frequently reported amongnow able to access MRI T2\* for active surveillance of iron overload and this will help them to optimise chelation therapy for their patients.[@R27] However, the MRI T2\* data collection for the MTR has not started and the feasibility of entering the findings into the registry is under way.

Prevention of affected births is a challenge in Malaysia. To date, prenatal screening of thalassaemia is still very low although it can be conducted on request, and the cost is covered by the national health system if conducted in the government hospitals. Despite multiple meetings and forums with medical and religious experts, which have been conducted since 2004, a policy on prenatal screening and diagnosis is yet to be developed. The multiethnic cultures and religions practised in the country play


a huge role in prenatal diagnosis and therapeutic abortion. In a local study, majority of the study respondents were open to prenatal diagnosis, but less than one-third agreed to performing both prenatal diagnosis followed by termination of affected fetuses. More than 75% of those declining claimed that religious restriction is the main reason.[@R29] Accessibility to prenatal diagnosis in some regions and family planning consideration are also among the contributing factors.

In Malaysia, therapeutic abortion is permitted based on The Penal Code (Amendment) Act 1989 (Act A727), which allows abortion within 120 days of conception only if the continued pregnancy poses a greater threat to the mother\'s life or to her physical or mental health than would the termination of the pregnancy.

You watch them from a fundamental standpoint and see if anyone needs extra, extra, extra work as far as a particular fundamental."

We started down a path beside the road. The other family was no longer in sight. The air was fresh and peacefully still. As the snow fell over us, Mom asked me whether it was true that no two snowflakes are identical; I told her I didn’t know. The snow under my feet looked uneven, and I kicked it until my foot hit metal. We were at a train crossing. I told my mom but she kept walking. I presumed she heard me. I considered whether or not to follow her or call her back. It was Christmas Day;

I had salad for lunch almost every day and I’ve still got enough for a few more this week. I finally cut into my kohlrabi and decided it’s one of my new favorite veggies, I sliced it super thin and used it to make a variation on my Kale Slaw. Aside from salad it’s been lots of beans and rice, eggs, lentil tacos, and lots of pesto. Other great eats I found include:

Why would the Trump administration be interested in HRAs? How does it fit with their broader approach to health care?

Katherine Hempstead

In some ways it is incongruous because the administration has taken a number of actions and advocated for others which most people would construe as being designed to undermine the ACA in general and the individual market in particular. Yet the success of this new rule depends on a well-functioning individual market. If you can get past that inconsistency, this probably appeals to a desire to increase flexibility for small employers, who will probably be most interested in this opportunity, at least initially.

Is there a way to skip the opening logos in Deus Ex: Human Revolution?

I'm really enjoying the newest Deus Ex, but I'm not enjoying sitting through the logos of the assorted developers and publishers each time the game loads.

While it's just an introduction, what I am actually missing is the proper
introduction of the neural processing model. How it works in the physical
brain, with potentials and a couple of ! different neurotransmitters is a
whole different matter!

By using just the model of neural processing one can achieve amazing results.
Whether a neuron activates its output links, depends on the weight sum of the
activated input links. If the sum is strong positive the Neuron activates its
output, if it's strong negative the neuron even inhibits activation of
successor neurons. But, even that basic tidbit is missing in the text.

"The neuron adds inputs in some way..." Really? Oh man. I consider myself an
engineer, but that article doesn't say anything about _how_ neurons

  The Grand Lodge argued that Freemasonry’s “peculiar system of morality, veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols” is driven by principles of high moral standards, charitable giving and positive community involvement. It said its “aims of philosophical, philanthropic and civic nature” benefited the public in general and all Masons were expected to treat giving, truth and brotherly love as “a personal rule of life”. Belief in a “supreme being” is a requirement for all Freemasons.


On that date, defense counsel again requested an adjournment of the trial "in relation to" the alibi witnesses. (Id. at 18.) The trial court denied the request, finding that the defense had stipulated that the witnesses would be produced to the state prior to trial and had failed to so. (Id. at 18.) The trial court further stated that jury selection would take a couple of clays, but the witnesses would be precluded from testifying if they were not made available to the prosecution prior to opening arguments. (Id. at 18-19.)
2. Trial, Post-Trial Motions and Sentencing
At trial, Stubbs testified that she made an arrangement with petitioner, whom she knew as "Sean," and his girlfriend, Jatanya Belnavis, to rent her Jeep Grand Cherokee for a week. (See Tr. atDkt. No. 29.)
The trial court denied petitioner's post-trial motions. (Id. at 18, 20.) Petitioner was sentenced as a second felony offender to concurrent terms of fifteen years for criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree, seven years for criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree, and one year for menacing in the second degree. (Id. at 23.)
3. Direct and Collateral Appeals
Petitioner appealed his conviction to the Appellate Division, Second Department. Petitioner contended that (1) the trial court erred when it denied trial counsel's request for a missing witness charge concerning *179 Barnes; (2) his trial counsel was ineffective for (a) failing to object to evidence of petitioner's criminal history and (b) failing to file pre-trial motions, to call the alibi witnesses listed in the


counsel failed to produce them to the prosecution prior to trial as agreed. However, on December 6, 2001, counsel requested an adjournment of the trial "in relation to the alibi witnesses" (see Tr. at 18), suggesting that he was having difficulty locating them. Unfortunately for petitioner, the trial court denied counsel's application, but his attempt to obtain further tithe for his investigation appears reasonable.
After failing to locate the Dallyrymples in time for trial, counsel sought to introduce the testimony of Wilson and Brown. While petitioner complains that counsel misinformed the court that they could not testify to his alibi when subsequent statements by both indicate that they could have done so, counsel's statement to this effect appears to have been a rather clever attempt to circumvent the noticeOrtega v. Duncan, 333 F.3d 102, 106-07 (2d Cir.2003). A conviction must be set aside if "the prosecution knew, or should have known, of the perjury," and "there is any reasonable likelihood that the false testimony could have affected the judgment of the jury." United States v. Agurs, 427 U.S. 97, 103, 96 S.Ct. 2392, 49 L.Ed.2d 342 (1976). The Second Circuit held in Ortega that, "when false testimony is provided by a government witness without the prosecution's knowledge, due process is violated only if the testimony was material and the court is left with a firm belief that but for the perjured testimony, the defendant would most likely not have been convicted." 333 F.3d at 108 (internal quotation marks and citations omitted) (emphasis added).
Petitioner has failed to


First Department held that the potential benefit of forcing the prosecution to accrue speedy trial time at the expense of a colorable suppression motion was not a valid strategic purpose and that counsel was deficient for pursuing that course of action. See id. Here, counsel's reason for taking such a step was both specific to this case  as opposed to a supposition based solely on past experience  and also had a much higher potential benefit.
[3]  Even if the court considered the impact of the exclusion of Brown and Wilson's testimony together with the denial of a continuance to secure the Dallyrymple's testimony, any error would be harmless. According to petitioner's submissions in support of the instant petition, after his conviction he hired a private investigator,of the most important families of such $3$-manifolds are product spaces $M\times{\mathbb{R}}$, $M$ being a Riemannian surface, which includes some homogeneous spaces as ${\mathbb{R}}^3$, ${\mathbb{H}}^2\times{\mathbb{R}}$ and ${\mathbb{S}}^2\times{\mathbb{R}}$. It was Rosenberg in [@rose2] who started the study of minimal surfaces in $M\times{\mathbb{R}}$ and, since then, many papers in this setting have appeared.

We will focus on constant mean curvature $H>0$ graphs $\Sigma$ in $M\times{\mathbb{R}}$ whose boundary $\partial M$ lies in some slice $M\times\{t_0\}$ and, if we denote by $c$ the infimum of the Gaussian curvature of the domain of $M$ over which $\Sigma$ is a graph, we will assume the hypothesis $4H^2+c>0$. As CMC graphs are stable, it is possible to apply Theorem 2.8 in [@mpr19] to conclude that the distance function $d(p,\partial\Sigma)$, $p\in\Sigma$, is bounded, so the height function


with the induced Riemannian metric. It is well-known that every $1$-parameter group of ambient isometries consists only of rotations so, up to an isometry, they may be supposed to be rotations around the axis $\{(0,0,1,t):t\in{\mathbb{R}}\}$. Hence, the orbit space can be identified with the totally geodesic surface $\{(x,y,z,t)\in{\mathbb{S}}^2\times{\mathbb{R}}:x=0\}\cong{\mathbb{S}}^1\times{\mathbb{R}}$, and we will take the generating curve as $$\gamma(t)=\left(0,\sin r(t),\cos r(t),h(t)\right)$$ for some functions $r,h$ defined on some interval of the real line. Pedrosa [@ped1] showed that the generated surface has constant mean curvature $H\in{\mathbb{R}}$ if, and only if, certain ODE system is satisfied. In fact, he proved that in the intervals where $r$ is invertible, we can take it as the parameter and the corresponding ODE system becomes $$\label{eqn:sistema_S2xR}
\left\{\begin{array}{l}
h'(r)=\cot(\sigma(r)),\\
\sigma'(r)=\frac{2H+\cot(r)\cos(\sigma(r))}{\operatorname{sen}(\sigma(r))},
\end{array}\right.$$ for an auxiliary function $\sigma$. The second equation can beand $\Sigma$ is invariant by a $1$-parameter isometry group because of Lemma \[lema\_funcion\_constante\].

-   If $p_0\in\partial\Omega$, then such a maximum is attained in the whole boundary ${\partial}\Omega$ since $(\psi_m)_{|\partial\Omega}$ is constant. Then the boundary maximum principle for the operator $L$ guarantees that $\frac{{\partial}\psi_m}{{\partial}\eta}\geq 0$ along $\partial\Omega$. It is straightforward to check from (\[eqn:kg\]) that this is equivalent to the inequality in the statement above.

-   If $p_0\in V$, then $\nu(p_0)=-1$. The inequality we are looking for would be proved if we discarded this case, but it turns out that $h\leq m\cdot\alpha(c,H,\nu_0)=-g_m(-1)$ so $\psi_m\leq\psi_m(p_0)=h(p_0)+g_m(-1)=h(p_0)-m\cdot\alpha(c,H,\nu_0)+g_m(\nu_0)\leq g_m(\nu_0)$ and, since $\psi_m$ is equal to $g_m(\nu_0)$ in $\partial\Omega$, the maximum is also attained in the boundary, which reduces this case to the previous one.

We now apply the theorem to the compact


is strictly increasing and $h$ vanishes on $\partial\Sigma$. Therefore, as $g$ is also an odd function, we derive that $g(-\nu)\geq h-g(\nu_0)$. Now we can invert the function $g$ and square both sides to obtain $$\label{eqn:angulo_maximo}
\nu^2\geq\zeta(h,\nu_0):=\begin{cases}
\frac{c+4H^2}{c}\tanh^2\left(\frac{\sqrt{c^2+4H^2c}}{4H}(h-g(\nu_0))\right)&\text{if }c<0,\\
H^2(h-g(\nu_0))^2&\text{if }c=0,\\
\frac{c+4H^2}{-c}\tan^2\left(\frac{\sqrt{-c^2-4H^2c}}{4H}(h-g(\nu_0))\right)&\text{if }c>0.\\
\end{cases}$$

Let $\gamma:[a,b]\rightarrow\Sigma$ be a smooth curve which is parametrized by arc-length and let $\eta$ be a smooth unit vector field along $\gamma$, orthogonal to $\gamma'$. Then, as $\{N,\alpha',\eta\}$ is an orthonormal frame, we have $$E_3=\langle N,E_3\rangle E_3+\langle\gamma',E_3\rangle\gamma'+\langle\eta,E_3\rangle\eta,$$ and, since $\langle N,E_3\rangle=\nu$ and $\langle\gamma',E_3\rangle=h'(\gamma)$, we deduce that $1=\nu^2+h'(\gamma)^2+\langle\eta,E_3^\top\rangle^2$. Taking into account that $\langle\eta,E_3^\top\rangle^2\geq0$, we finally get $|h'|\leq 1-\nu^2$. Thus, plugging (\[eqn:angulo\_maximo\]) into this inequality, we have $$\label{acotacion_longitud}
{\mathop{\rm Long}\nolimits}(\gamma)\geq\int_0^a\frac{|h'|}{\sqrt{1-\nu^2}}{\,\mathrm{d}}t\geq\int_0^a\frac{-h'}{\sqrt{1-\zeta(h,\nu_0)}}{\,\mathrm{d}}t=\int_{h(a)}^{h(0)}\frac{ds}{\sqrt{1-\zeta(s,\nu_0)}}.$$ Considering all the curves that join a point $p$ with the boundary (along which the height vanishes), we obtain the following result:

Summer worked so well, because me and Zooey had remained friends for that whole time in between.

What’s it like coming back eight years later and premiering your first feature here?

Joe: Sundance has become an informal, fluid community of artists that love movies and believe there’s more to movies than glitz, glamour, and box office. And a movie like this, which doesn’t follow the formulas of what a mainstream Hollywood comedy is supposed to be, will hopefully become a mainstream Hollywood comedy because of Sundance giving it that portal. I admire so much about what Mr. Redford has done, and there’s nowhere else I’d rather play my first movie.

Hello Denise. There’s one more thing. All red wine vinegars are notthe economic concept of inequality, and there are still no easy answers. In the midst of steroid-fueled social media campaigns and surface-level rants by media personalities (all working in for-profit industries disguised as objectively reporting the news), the facts of the issue tangle with emotions and anecdotes, while practical suggestions are few and far between.

Thomas Piketty undertook an extensive study to research the effects and outcomes of capitalism, as compared to European socialism, the latter of which appears to be the inspiration that drives Senator Elizabeth Warren’s economic plans. Although Piketty’s 2013 book, Capital in the Twenty-First Century, investigates the root of inequality of outcome in the market economy, he implies throughout that—somehow—capitalism is doomed.

In academia, it is perennially interesting to have these debates and compare economic data.

Promises and pitfalls for recombinant oligoclonal antibodies-based therapeutics in cancer and infectious disease.
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have revolutionized the diagnosis and treatment of many human diseases and the application of combinations of mAbs has demonstrated improved therapeutic activity in both preclinical and clinical testing. Combinations of antibodies have several advantages such as the capacities to target multiple and mutating antigens in complex pathogens and to engage varied epitopes on multiple disease-related antigens (e.g. receptors) to overcome heterogeneity and plasticity. Oligoclonal antibodies are an emerging therapeutic format in which a novel antibody combination is developed as a single drug product. Here, we will provide historical context on the use of oligoclonal antibodies in oncology and infectious diseases and will highlight practical considerations related to their preclinical and clinical development programs.the supernova procedure; and also to how much time go between the supernova and the development of the solar system.

Takehito Hayakawa, a visiting professor at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan said, “There are six neutrino species. Previous studies have shown that neutrino-isotopes are predominantly produced by the five neutrino species other than the electron anti-neutrino. By finding a neutrino-isotope synthesized predominantly by the electron anti-neutrino, we can estimate the temperatures of all six neutrino species, which are important for understanding the supernova explosion mechanism.”

in small school districts, I like to believe this only happened in small, provincial places. Surely, more enlightened people would know what's best for everybody, agree to disagree, and work together toward common solutions.

Not so. Just watch Molly Munger in a mud fight with Jerry Brown. Munger, who's sponsoring a ballot measure that would increase taxes on most Californians and give it mostly to education, has begun running negative ads against Brown's Prop. 30. Munger's determined to have Brown's proposition defeated, and hers come out triumphant. The end result, Prop 30 is now sagging in the polls and not really helping Prop. 38, Munger's initiative.

This is good news for the anti-tax cruzaders, as both initiatives will likely go down in defeat. For education folks, who will see amean possibly 25 colleges closing.

Of course, that was a lie. In that moment, he already knew that the intent to spearhead our removal from all protections and equal liberties was in full swing. It was only hours after his statement that the Department of Justice informed the US Supreme Court that it was now legal for employers to fire their employees solely on the basis of their trans identity, citing that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 does not include protections from discrimination, harassment or violence for transgender workers.

The brothers Grimm most likely first became familiar with German translation and decided to add it into their collection of fairy tales. The Brothers gave their story a happy ending- the hunter was about to shoot the wolf but instead he took scissors and cut open the wolf´s stomach. Red Riding Hood and grandmother came out alive and girl said "it was so dark and I was so scared all the time". Wolf died and it´s stomach was filled with stones.There is also a German folk tale version where the wolf drowned in a pool where the drinking water was kept for the farm animals. There are also folk tale versions of Red Riding Hood where the girl hides herself into grandmother´s closet. The hunter comes to

In the end of the fairy tale after girl was saved by the hunter she is thinking by herself: "From no on I will never look away from the road neither I will talk to strangers".All these gruesome details that Brother´s Grimm added into their stories are one of the reasons why I´m not huge fan of them. If Perrault´s fairy tale had twisted suggestions to pedophiles the Brother´s Grimm story has much more bloody and sadistic details. The idea that the stomach of the wolf is cut open and gets filled with stones presents an unpleasant image.

Taming Nature

Many of the folk talesElectronic Data Capture (REDCap).[@b14-wjem-18-616]

Outcomes
--------

Our primary outcome was the feasibility of identifying victims of sex trafficking in the ED. Our secondary outcome was identifying a patient who was a victim of sex trafficking. We defined a "true positive" victim of sex trafficking as a patient acknowledgment of or social work documentation of sex trafficking.

Analysis
--------

We analyzed data using descriptive statistics with 95% confidence intervals (CI), where appropriate. Analyses were performed using Stata Version 14.1 (StataCorp LP, College Station, TX).

RESULTS
=======

We enrolled 143 women with median age 27 years (interquartile range 22--33 years) ([Table 1](#t1-wjem-18-616){ref-type="table"}). Overall, 46 patients screened positive for possible sex trafficking: 30 (21%, 95% CI \[15%--29%\]) on the screening survey only, seven (7%, 95% CI \[2%--10%\]) on physician concern only, and nine (6%, 95% CI \[3%--12%\]) on both. Ten


All (100%, 95%CI \[74%--100%\]) "true positive" cases answered "yes" to the following screening question: "Were you (or anyone you work with) ever beaten, hit, yelled at, raped, threatened or made to feel physical pain for working slowly or for trying to leave?" ([Table 2](#t2-wjem-18-616){ref-type="table"}).

DISCUSSION
==========

Identification of adult victims of sex trafficking in the ED using a brief screening survey is feasible. Our rate of "true positive" screens was surprising, particularly given prior reports that victims are often reluctant to disclose their situations in healthcare settings.[@b15-wjem-18-616] Victims fear discrimination from healthcare providers, reporting to legal authorities, and punishment from their traffickers.[@b10-wjem-18-616],[@b15-wjem-18-616] The number of victims identified during this brief pilot study suggests that our ED regularly cares for victims of sex trafficking.

Consistent with other reports,[@b7-wjem-18-616],[@b8-wjem-18-616] victims in our study appearedPrP mRNA levels in astrocytes were ∼2-fold higher than that of N2a and MEF cells but lower than in CAD5 cells ([Fig. 1](#F1){ref-type="fig"}*A*). Because cell surface expression of PrP^C^ is required for establishing prion infection in cultured cells, we next determined the expression of cell surface PrP^C^ in C8D astrocytes and compared it with that of N2a, CAD5, and MEF cells. Our flow cytometry data showed that cell surface expression of PrP^C^ in C8D astrocytes was slightly higher than in N2a cells but lower than that of CAD5 cells, although the differences were not statistically significant. Moreover, cell surface expression of non-neuronal MEF cells was significantly lower than that of astrocytes ([Fig. 1](#F1){ref-type="fig"}*B*). Glial fibrillary acidic protein immunostaining was used to demonstrate the astrocytic cell type ([Fig. S1](https://www.jbc.org/cgi/content/full/RA120.012596/DC1)).

Sciences). The central portions of the A280 UV peak were collected into dialysis buffer (10 m[m]{.smallcaps} sodium phosphate, pH 5.8). Purified protein was filtered with a 0.22-μm filter followed by transfer into a Slide-A-Lyzer dialysis cassette (molecular mass, 10 kDa; Thermo Scientific, 87731) and placed in a beaker with dialysis buffer with continuous stirring for overnight at 4 °C. After dialysis, a prewashed 0.22-μm Argos syringe filter was used to filter the protein solution again followed by measurement of protein concentration with BCA protein assay (Thermo Scientific, 23227). Finally, the protein solution was aliquoted and stored in −80°C until further use.

### RT-QuIC assay

The RT-QuIC assay was done as described previously ([@B81]). The master mix (98 μl/well) containing a final concentration of 10 m[m]{.smallcaps} phosphate buffer (pH 7.4), 300every 15 min. RT-QuIC data were analyzed by taking the average of four replicate wells and normalizing to a percentage of the maximum fluorescence response of the instrument. The average values were plotted against the reaction times. Cutoff was calculated as five times the standard deviation of the mean of reaction values of mock samples. The samples were considered positive for prion seeding activity if at least two of the quadruplicates reached the ThT fluorescence cutoff.

Astrocytes subcloning
---------------------

Astrocytes were seeded at 1 × 10^5^ cells in a 12-well culture plate for 24 h. The next day, the culture medium was removed, and the cells were overlaid with 50 μl of a 10% 22L brain homogenate in 450 μl of serum-free culture medium. After 5 h of incubation, 500 μl


generally as nodes and the edges are alternatively referred to as links. A loop is the loop created by the edges connecting the vertices. A closed loop in a conflict graph with an even number of vertices can be decomposed into two masks. Accordingly, a decomposition violation in double-patterning can be detected by the presence of a loop with an odd number of vertices in the conflict graph. However, decomposition validation in triple-patterning is a much more complex problem. In fact, the problem is NP-complete, which makes the problem not solvable in a reasonable amount of time.Consequently, scientists have developed various methods of chemical and physical processes for removing different dyes. For example, removal of dyes from waste effluents by ozone oxidation, coagulation by a chemical agent, electrochemical method, and hypochlorite oxidation and adsorption \[[@B7-molecules-23-01950],[@B8-molecules-23-01950],[@B9-molecules-23-01950],[@B10-molecules-23-01950]\]. Adsorption was reported to be an efficacious process for removing dyes from wastewater, and an alternative method compared to other expensive treatment techniques \[[@B9-molecules-23-01950],[@B11-molecules-23-01950],[@B12-molecules-23-01950]\]. It is performed using synthetic \[[@B13-molecules-23-01950],[@B14-molecules-23-01950],[@B15-molecules-23-01950],[@B16-molecules-23-01950],[@B17-molecules-23-01950],[@B18-molecules-23-01950]\] or natural adsorbents \[[@B19-molecules-23-01950],[@B20-molecules-23-01950],[@B21-molecules-23-01950],[@B22-molecules-23-01950],[@B23-molecules-23-01950],[@B24-molecules-23-01950]\]. However, synthetic adsorbents can be costly, as the higher the quality, the greater the expenditure.

To the present day, several research investigations in the literature have reported removing textile dyes using natural adsorbents, as they are economically attractive and advantageous mainly due to their cheapness and abundant availability \[[@B25-molecules-23-01950],[@B26-molecules-23-01950],[@B27-molecules-23-01950],[@B28-molecules-23-01950]\]. However, there is still a need to


values are related; while the adsorption intensity is related to 1/n value.

### 3.3.3. The Dubinin-Radushkevich (D-R) Isotherm {#sec3dot3dot3-molecules-23-01950}

Adsorption on heterogeneous and homogeneous surfaces can be described by the D-R isotherm model at low concentration \[[@B57-molecules-23-01950]\].

The following equation shows the linear form of the isotherm. $${\ {Lnq}_{e} = {Lnq}_{m} - {K\mathsf{\varepsilon}}^{2}}\ $$ where ε is the Polanyi potential determined in Equation (14), and K is constant for the sorption energy (mol^2^/kJ^2^):$${\mathsf{\varepsilon}\  = {RTLn}\left( {1 + \frac{1}{C_{e}}} \right)}\ $$ where R is the Universal gas constant (8.314 J·mol^−1^ K^−1^), T (K) is the temperature and C~e~ (ppm) is the equilibrium concentration of the MB dye left in the solution, and q~m~ is the theoretical saturation capacity.

The following equation represents the mean energy of sorption, E (kJ/mol):$${\ E = \\frac{1}{\sqrt{2K}}}\ $$

The mechanism of the adsorption can be estimated by using the magnitude of E. Physical forces could affect the adsorption in such cases of E = 8 kJ/mol. Adsorption can be ruled by ion exchange mechanism if E is in the range of 8--16 kJ /mol, whereas adsorption may be subject to particle diffusion for the value of E = 16 kJ/mol, \[[@B44-molecules-23-01950],[@B58-molecules-23-01950]\].

### 3.3.4. Temkin Model {#sec3dot3dot4-molecules-23-01950}

This isotherm contains a factor that explicitly taking into the account of adsorbent-adsorbate interactions. It further implies that the heat of adsorption of all the molecules in the layer would decrease linearly with the coverage involved in this interaction \[[@B49-molecules-23-01950]\]. The following equation is used for the Temkin isotherm. $${\ q_{e} = B_{T}{LnA}_{T} + B_{T}{LnC}_{e}}\ $$ where B~T~ = R~T~/b~T~, b~T~


3.4.3. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) {#sec3dot4dot3-molecules-23-01950}

The changes in morphology of used materials were investigated by scanning electron microscope ([Figure 14](#molecules-23-01950-f014){ref-type="fig"}). The MNS-4 sample have heterogeneous and different spherical particles. However, after the removal of MB, the spherical shape disappeared and the surface of MNS-4 exhibited flower-like morphology, as presented in [Figure 14](#molecules-23-01950-f014){ref-type="fig"}b. The regenerated sample (washed with ethanol and water mixture) showed a significant change in morphology ([Figure 14](#molecules-23-01950-f014){ref-type="fig"}c); it exhibited alveoli morphology, leading to a honeycomb like assembly. After reuse cycle, the alveoli retracted forming hollow bags probably due to electrostatic interaction between MB and the walls of the alveoli with attraction toward the alveoli center ([Figure 14](#molecules-23-01950-f014){ref-type="fig"}d).

the Eastern Province towns of Qatif and Safwa demonstrated to show solidarity with detainees from the Medina clashes. Shia also protested in ‘Awwamiyya to demand equal treatment following a sermon in which a Shia preacher, Nimr al-Nimr, had said, "Our dignity is more precious than the unity" of the kingdom. Security forces reacted by arresting scores of demonstrators, detaining many for months.

In May, June, and July, the police, reportedly on instructions from the Eastern Province governorate, arrested Shia in Khobar, ordering them to close private halls for communal prayers. One such Shia, Abdullah Muhanna, was held from May 25 until July 1. There are no Shia mosques in Khobar, though state-funded Sunni mosques abound.

In Ahsa', in southern Eastern Province, authorities arrested at least 20 Shia between January andknowledge does not alter the risky behavior. The well-informed on HIV prisoners, nevertheless, use drugs despite the risk of HIV infection. Furthermore, shortage in treatment of drug use, in rehabilitation and occupation of prisoners provide benevolent conditions for rapid spread of HIV and other blood-born infections in the Lithuanian penitentiaries. Many prisoners are not able to reintegrate into society after their release because of broken social relationships, lack of social services in the country, therefore they do often relapse into a drug use, and endanger not only their close people but also society in whole. HIV and virus hepatitis might be transmitted from them to a general population by a variety of transmission modes.

*951 Plaintiffs also contest the probable cause for Timothy Lawyer's arrest. The picture here is more complicated. Timothy was cited for interference with official acts and disobedience of a police order, both in violation of Council Bluffs city ordinances, but apparently was prosecuted only for the latter. Since probable cause for either offense would justify Timothy's arrest, it is appropriate to examine both alleged violations. Before doing, so it bears note that an Iowa peace officer may make an arrest for the violation of an ordinance. Both ordinances were punishable as misdemeanors. (Def. Second Supp. App. at 3). A violation of a city ordinance carrying a penalty of a fine (Timothy was subject to fine) or imprisonment is a public offense for which a peace officerN.W.2d 108,118 (Iowa 1984); see Fuller v. Loc. Union No. 106 of United Bro. of Carpenters, 567 N.W.2d 419, 423 (Iowa 1997). "Before defendants' conduct can be considered outrageous it must be " `so extreme in degree, as to go beyond all possible bounds of decency, and to be regarded as atrocious, and utterly intolerable in a civilized community.'"" Fuller, 567 N.W.2d at 423 (quoting Harsha v. State Savings Bank, 346 N.W.2d 791, 801 (Iowa 1984)).
The circumstances of this case as a matter of law are far short of demonstrating the requisite extremity, atrociousness or intolerableness. Moreover, a police officer's statutorily authorized use of force cannot fall outside the bounds of decency which constrain a civilized community because the community has authorized the conduct by legislation.

Attorney General Schwefel filed a motion before the Casino Control Commission to bar LiButti from all New Jersey casinos on the grounds that he was a Gotti “associate” — a request that was approved by the commission on Aug. 21, 1991.

At the time, the Casino Control Commission was also moving to fine Trump Plaza for its past efforts to placate LiButti by keeping blacks and women away from his craps tables. According to the commission’s documents on the case, LiButti flew into fits of rage whenever he lost money at the craps tables, flinging dice and gaming chips around the casino and grabbing the stick from a stickperson’s hand and breaking it in half.

He also made it clear that “he did not want women, blacks or other minoritiesBroadband provider, Spectranet will invest upwards of 100 crores to expand the layout of its optical fibre network in 8 cities including Delhi, Gurgaon, Noida, Ghaziabad, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Pune and Chennai.

The former discussion may buy the time necessary for the latter, but without the latter we are not going to be able to deal with the core issues that brought us to this point in the first place. Indeed, they will keep us on this path until we do deal with them. To paraphrase Anshin Thomas, we cannot think our way to a new way of living, we must live our way to a new way of thinking.


which dose intensification has less rationale. An example is active disease due to the development of high-titre antibodies with sub-therapeutic trough levels (immune-mediated pharmacokinetic failure) or adequate trough levels without antibodies (mechanistic/pharmacodynamic failure), which may warrant a change in therapy rather than dose intensification ^[@ref-2]^.

At the opposite end of the spectrum, patients in deep remission on IFX maintenance with supra-therapeutic trough levels could de-escalate their dosing, as relapse rates have been demonstrated to be low ^[@ref-1],\ [@ref-3]^. Again, this may be done by lengthening the inter-dose interval or reducing the concentration of the infusion (if previously receiving 10 mg/kg). The Trough Level Adapted Infliximab Treatment (TAXIT) study showed that dose reduction (targeting a trough level of 3 to 7 µg/mL) results in a similar proportion of patients inrecommends that live vaccines be avoided until after 6 months in infants exposed to anti-TNF *in utero* ^[@ref-13]^. There are clearly far less data guiding how best to manage more novel biologics, such as VDZ and UST, during pregnancy. Although both agents are expected to cross the placenta in a manner similar to that of IFX and ADA, there has so far been no evidence of harm ^[@ref-14],\ [@ref-15]^. However, further studies are required to better understand their safety and pharmacokinetics during this period.

biologic therapy. In an attempt to address this question, the currently recruiting Predicting Outcomes for Crohn's Disease Using a Molecular Biomarker (PROFILE) study uses a biomarker panel to separate CD patients at diagnosis into two cohorts: those likely to develop severe disease and those predicted to have a milder disease course. Patients within each group will be randomly assigned to receive either combination therapy with an immunomodulator and IFX ("top down" treatment) from the point of diagnosis or a "step up" approach of an immunomodulator initially followed by IFX only in the case of refractory disease. The trialists predict that patients in the severe group will benefit more from biologic treatment from the point of diagnosis, and if this is proven correct, it is likely that biologic therapiesFrance’s presidential runoff]

The disclosure of the leaked documents just before the end of Friday means the Macron campaign will not be able to address the matter substantially Saturday. Candidates and their aides are strictly prohibited from giving interviews to the press on the day before and the day of the vote.

Despite the prohibition, Macron’s opponents quickly capitalized on the news. Florian Philippot, the National Front’s deputy leader, tweeted early Saturday: “Will #Macronleaks teach us something that investigative journalism has deliberately killed?”

On Saturday, France’s Electoral Commission urged journalists and media organizations not to report on the contents of the leaks. The commission called on news outlets to heed “the sense of responsibility they must demonstrate, as at stake are the free expression of voters and


the sincerity of the election” itself.

Throughout the campaign, Le Pen has been an outspoken advocate of pivoting France’s foreign policy toward an improved alliance with Vladimir Putin’s Russia. During a March visit to Moscow, she met with the Russian president.

For years, a complex web of financial ties has also linked Le Pen to Russian lending sources. When French banks refused on principle to lend to the National Front in 2014, Le Pen sought and received the backing of a Russian lender. The bank’s lending license was ultimately revoked late last year, forcing her to seek alternate funding sources.

For months, Le Pen has also received exceedingly positive coverage in Russian state media. Meanwhile, those news outlets have pilloried Macron, accusing him of being secretly gay and of embezzling public/*

Animal models of cortical deafness are essential for investigation of the cerebral glucose metabolism in congenital or prelingual deafness. Autoradiographic imaging is mainly used to assess the cerebral glucose metabolism in rodents. In this study, procedures for the 3D voxel-based statistical analysis of autoradiographic data were established to enable investigations of the within-modal and cross-modal plasticity through entire areas of the brain of sensory-deprived animals without lumping together heterogeneous subregions within each brain structure into a large region of interest. Thirteen 2-[1-(14)C]-deoxy-D: -glucose autoradiographic images were acquired from six deaf and seven age-matched normal rats (age 6-10 weeks). The deafness was induced by surgical ablation.

But this year, I’ve pretty much got one thing on my mind, and that is… what kind of awesome scenes are in store from the beautiful Sarina Valentina next?

I tell you what… David is one VERY lucky guy to get a crack at Sarina Valentina’s fine Shemale ass.

Our third contribution is to find the accurate expression of the link rate of a user. Such a link rate expression contains some identical parameters and functions that also exist in the derived expression of the coverage probability so that it essentially inherits the aforementioned salient features of the derived expression of the coverage probability. It clearly shows how the BSs in each tier contribute their link rate when the GUA scheme is adopted and whether the mmWave BSs could dominate the overall link rate due to their huge bandwidth. These derived general expressions of the coverage and link rate shed light on a fundamental tradeoff problem between the coverage and link rate in a mmWave HetNet, i.e., maximizing


models for the UHF and mmWave BSs. Section \[Sec:CoverageRate\] elaborates on how to analyze the coverage and rate for the GUA scheme. In Section \[Sec:Tradeoff\], optimal user association schemes that maximize the coverage and rate are studied and how the schemes induce the coverage-rate tradeoff problem is expounded. In Section \[Sec:Simulation\], some numerical results are provided to validate the derived analytical results as well as verify the coverage-rate tradeoff finding. Finally, Section \[Sec:Conclusion\] summarizes our findings and observations.

System Model and Assumptions {#Sec:SystemModel}
============================

In this paper, we consider an $M$-tier HetNet over an infinitely large plane in which all BSs in any particular tier that have the same type and performance form an independent PPP with a certain intensity[^1]. To characterize the situation that traditional UHF/microwave BSs and mmWave (small  Interference from all UHF BSs

            $\omega_{m}$                  Association bias of $\Psi_{m,i}$ in                   $C_m (C_*)$


assume that all BSs have a uniform linear array and are able to perfectly align their beam with the AoD of their array in order to maximize their antenna array gain.

When BS $X_*$ equipped with $T_*\in\{T_1,\ldots, T_M\}$ transmit antennas performs transmit beamforming to the typical user, the MISO fading channel gain from it to the user is expressed as $$\begin{aligned}
\label{Eqn:MISOChannelModelSerBS}
H_*{\triangleq}[h_{*,\mu}\mathds{1}(X_*\notin\Phi_M)+h_{*,\varepsilon}\mathds{1}(X_*\in\Phi_M)]G_*,\end{aligned}$$ where $h_{*,\mu}$ ($h_{*,\varepsilon}$) denotes the small-scale fading gain in the UHF (mmWave) band and $G_*=\overline{G}_*\ell(\|X_*\|)+\widetilde{G}_*[1-\ell(\|X_*\|)]$ is the large-scale shadowing gain in which $\overline{G}_*$ and $\widetilde{G}_*$ denote the LOS and NLOS shadowing gains, respectively. We assume each BS has the channel state information of its users so that $h_{*,\mu}\sim\chi^2_{2T_*}$ is a Chi-squared RV with $2T_*$ degrees of freedom and $h_{*,\varepsilon}\sim T_*\exp(1)$ is an exponential RV with mean $T_*$ andvariance $T^2_*$ due to transmit beamforming performed by BS $X_*$. Moreover, if if BS $X_*\in\Phi_m$, $\overline{G}_*\sim\mathcal{\ln N}(0,\overline{\rho}^2_m)$ and $\widetilde{G}_*\sim\mathcal{\ln N}(0,\widetilde{\rho}^2_m)$ are log-normal RVs that are zero mean and have variances $\overline{\rho}^2_m$ and $\widetilde{\rho}^2_m$, respectively. Note that we usually have $\widetilde{\rho}^2_m>\overline{\rho}^2_m$ for all $m\in\mathcal{M}$ since NLOS channels usually suffer a larger shadowing variation in LOS channels based on many previous measurement results [@TSRGRMMKSSS15; @TSRRHRDJM14]. Similarly, the interference channel gain from BS $X_{m,i}$ to the typical user can be written as $$\begin{aligned}
\label{Eqn:MISOChannelModelIntfBS}
H_{m,i}=h_{m,i}G_{m,i},\end{aligned}$$ where $h_{m,i}\sim\mathrm{exp}(1)$[^8] and $G_{m,i}=\overline{G}_{m,i}\ell(\|X_{m,i}\|)+\widetilde{G}_{m,i}[1-\ell(\|X_{m,i}\|)]$ in which $\overline{G}_{m,i}\sim\ln\mathcal{N}(0,\overline{\rho}^2_m)$ and $\widetilde{G}_{m,i}\sim\ln\mathcal{N}(0,\widetilde{\rho}^2_m)$. Note that all $\widetilde{G}_{m,i}$’s and $\overline{G}_{m,i}$’s are independent for all $i\in\mathbb{N}_+$ and $m\in\mathcal{M}$, and they are i.i.d. for the same tier index $m$. All $h_{m,i}$’s are i.i.d for all $i\in\mathbb{N}_+$ and $m\in\mathcal{M}$.

The SINR Model for the UHF and mmWave


and the analytical results of $p_{cov}(\theta)$ are also very close to their corresponding simulated results. As can be seen in Fig. \[Fig:CovProbMISO\], the COA scheme still outperforms the ROA scheme in terms of coverage, but not very much. The coverage gap between COA and ROA is largely reduced due to multiple transmit antennas. As a result, user association may not play a pivotal role in affecting the coverage any more if BSs have multiple antennas. Furthermore, the MISO simulation results in Fig. \[Fig:CovProbMISO\] are obtained by the assumption that perfect channel state information (CSI) of users is available at each BS, whereas the SISO simulation results in Fig. \[Fig:CovProbMISO\] are equivalent to the simulation results in the scenario where no CSI is available at each BS with multiple   4

and provided to the District Court.

       TAMAYO: [M]y stock broker . . . I also asked him to
       see if he can get me, like, 30K for you. Um, because I
       know you, um, so that might help.

       [METRO]: That would help, yeah. Yeah, that would
       help.

saying even if . . .

TAMAYO: No, no, as far as the last one we did [the last
insider trading].

[METRO]: Yeah, yeah. Like a year, or kind of a little
bit . . . but I’m not even saying that, I’m saying a legit
thing. Because why not, I mean, that money should be
making me money, rather than just sitting in a cash
value.

TAMAYO: Absolutely. Um, he actually, the broker
actually asked me about it—he’s like, anything new? I
was like, no, you know, so.

[METRO]: But those tips, they really don’t pay off. I
mean they pay off for us, but, what good is giving him
[the stock broker] a tip?

TAMAYO: I know.

[METRO]: It’s not making me any money.

in line with Kluger. Once a sentencing court identifies the
scope of conduct for which a defendant can be fairly held
accountable, whether consequences flowing from that conduct
were foreseeable is not pertinent to § 2B1.4’s gain analysis.

       C.     The District Court Did Not Address Critical
              Factual Disputes Relevant to the Scope of
              Metro’s Conduct for Sentencing Purposes

       Since we have concluded that district courts must look
to §


the
indictment did not set out any factual basis showing that Metro
“acted in concert with” or “provided inside information” to
Eydelman for purposes of sentencing accountability.
Similarly, the PSR does not contain any facts linking Metro to
Eydelman, other than referring to the fact that Metro was
charged with conspiring with Eydelman. And although the
government could have elicited facts from Metro at his plea
hearing to tie him to Eydelman, it did not.

       On the contrary, at the plea hearing, the government
established only that Metro learned about Eydelman after the
insider trading activity had ended. 10 It asked Metro whether he

Act, applies not merely to
Hindus by religion, it also applies to persons who profess other religions
-
Sikh, Jain or Buddhist. In other words, even though Sikhs, Jains or
Buddhist may not be Hindus by religion, they are governed by this Act like
Hindus.

The Act makes it clear that expression "Hindu" includes a person who,
though not a Hindu by religion, is nevertheless a person to whom this Act
applies by virtue of the provisions contained in section 2.

As to who is a Hindu, Buddhist, Jain or Sikh by religion, Explanation
appended to section 2 of the Act provides that any:
(a) child, legitimate on illegitimate, both of whose parents are Hindus,
Buddhists, Jainas or Sikhs by religion;

(b) child, legitimate or illegitimate, one of whose parents is a Hindu,
Buddhist, Jain or Sikh by religion. In this case,wrote, “In the foreword, Anand was quoted as saying, ‘Intuition is the first move I think of.’ Beliavsky addressed this quote in the following way: ‘Sure enough, but on what criteria does this move enter our head in the first place? Naturally, this comes from our knowledge of chess and previous experience.’“Psychologist and grandmaster Helmut Pfleger regards intuition to be something that cannot be substantiated rationally, and is in effect, a feeling.“Intuition is the immediate awareness of the position, but this is difficult to explain logically. Intuition in a sense depends on knowledge; the more you accumulate, the better your intuition becomes.” World Champion Vladimir Kramnik“… pattern recognition (i.e., the ability to instantly know where the pieces belong based on a deep knowledge and familiarity with pawn structures


video game so when the position starts getting complicated and I need to ponder a move, I have to actually set it up on a real board and start shifting plastic so that’s another reason I can’t play a whole lot of games all at once.

In this game my opponent played the Vienna Gambit which is very similar to the K-Gambit. I never accept the K-Gambit because I am not familiar with those types of positions and my experience has been that gambit players are far less knowledgeable of positions resulting from declining their gambit than those that arrive from its acceptance.

Kuarwaki is a pretty strong player so I was surprised to see such an obvious oversight; no doubt from playing too many games without adequate time forthen he probably should avoid the Exchange Variation with 2. …e6 first and play …c6 later, arriving at the Semi-Slav. In this game Black didn’t make any serious opening errors but never really had any serious play either.

the programs resulted in nearly $5 million from state in 2015-16.) This in addition to a steady $2 million in student fees and funding from the university’s general fund that increased by $800,000 during the 2015-16 school year to a net of $12.4 million, according to the financial report Wyoming filed with the NCAA.

Those dollars helped Wyoming absorb not only what senior associate AD for business operations Bill Sparks said were nearly $700,000 in spending increases related to the start of cost-of-attendance-based scholarships, but also make another boost in its spending on recruiting. For 2013-14, Wyoming reported $620,000 in total recruiting spending. For 2015-16, it reported $1.2 million — $612,000 for football recruiting alone.

Overall, the additional state funding let Wyoming increase its athletic expenses by almost $3.9 millionZedníček (surname)

Identical twin testifies he committed murder and brother was wrongly convicted

A prosecutor in Chicago on Thursday questioned the claim of an identical twin who testified he committed a murder and his brother was wrongly convicted of the crime in 2005.

Karl Smith first made the claim in a letter he sent to his brother in the fall of 2013, the Chicago Tribune reports. In Cook County, Illinois, court on Thursday, Smith said he and his brother were both gang members who sold drugs, but he was the man who fired a gun into a group of people, killing one man and wounding another.

The shooting victim who survived had identified Smith’s twin, Kevin Dugar, in a photo lineup that did notSuede, Laura Marling and Foals added to BBC Radio 6 Festival
