There is a rise in the number of cyber attacks on critical infrastructure in India and it will not stop as most of the sectors are poorly protected, a top executive from the global internet security giant Kaspersky lab said here on Wednesday. After the demonetisation move, the drive to digitisation has accelerated, bringing to the fore the concerns for cybersecurity and the level of risk remains the same everywhere and for every sector, said Vicente Diaz, Principal Security Analyst at Kaspersky lab.

"Poorly secured Industrial Cybersecurity Solutions (ICS) is nothing new but now attacking them provides direct benefit to the hackers. There will be more attacks in ICS sector," Diaz told reporters here. He added that Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) had learnt from mistakes and now their deploymenthike early Monday morning.

The two were among a handful of people who set out late in the workweek with the hopes of viewing the eclipse away from the masses. Oregon is expecting around 1 million visitors to visit the state for the eclipse, which would draw more tourists than any other event in state history.

Isabel Spradlin, a massage therapist in Portland, was eager. She is an avid hiker and has always wanted to see a full solar eclipse. For company, she roped in her little brother, who begrudgingly agreed.

“I have no interest in the eclipse,” said Tony Spradlin, a 36-year-old flight attendant. “This is just my first time camping and my sister is teaching me how to do it.”

Information technology and social sciences: how can health IT be used to support the health professional?
Keeping up to date with the increasing amount of health-related knowledge and managing the increasing numbers of patients with more complex clinical problems is a challenge for healthcare professionals and healthcare systems. Health IT applications, such as electronic health records or decision-support systems, are meant to support both professionals and their support systems. However, for physicians using these applications, the applications often cause new problems, such as the impracticality of their use in clinical practice. This review adopts a social sciences perspective to understand these problems and derive suggestions for further development. Indeed, humans use tools to remediate the brain's weaknesses and enhance thinking. Available health IT tools have been shaped to fitin the 6th minute before Ballinrobe’s Kevin Quinn was on the end of a fine move before slotting home a great goal two minutes later. This score was followed by a string of excellent Davitts points courtesy of Michael Conroy, Evan Ronane (2) and Josh Ronayne (2) with James Murphy getting Ballinrobe’s sole reply in the 21st minute.

Ronan McNamara pointed a 45 with a superb strike in the 25th minute and two Davitts goals in quick succession a minute later effectively killed the game off. The first was created by Michael Conroy and finished by Josh Ronayne and when the resulting kick-out was intercepted by the alert Evan Ronane, who lobbed the keeper for his side’s third goal, the writing was well and truly on the wall for

Colon cancer is the third most common type of cancer in the world, with nearly 1.36 million new cases diagnosed in 2012 in both genders [@B1]. Although cancer of the colon and rectum are more common in developed countries than in developing countries, the mortality rate in developing countries is higher. In 2012, approximately 694,000 deaths were reported from 1.4 million diagnosed cases worldwide [@B1]. Technological developments in the last few decades have resulted in a sedentary lifestyle, leading to changes in nutrition and exercise [@B2], which may have contributed to growing cancer rates, including those of colon cancer. The incidence of colon cancer is predicted to increase by 90% by 2030 [@B3].

Colorectal cancer (CRC) originates from the epithelial cells lining the colon or rectum in the gastrointestinal


increases the transcription of PUMA and consequently upregulates the translation of PUMA in the cytoplasm. PUMA protein is associated with antiapoptotic factors such as Bcl-x, and the PUMA/Bcl-x complex can cause the release of apoptotic factors such as Bax. The liberated apoptotic factors then activate mitochondria permeability and cytochrome C release. Kaempferol interferes with the promotion of PUMA, which leads to stimulation of apoptotic cascades [@B19]. The apoptosis property of kaempferol has also been demonstrated in the HT-29 cell line. HT-29 cells were arrested in G2/M in the presence of kaempferol. Moreover, kaempferol reduced the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)2, CDK4, cyclin D1, cyclin E, and cyclin A [@B20]. The Akt/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway was blocked in HT-29 cells in the presence of kaempferol. Insulin-like growth factorand Gsk-β levels; *iii)* a decrease in angiogenesis regulators such as VEGF and iNOS; and *iv)* targeting of signaling molecules involved in proliferation and survival such as cyclin D and c-Myc [@B50]. Although silibinin has the potential to inhibit SW480 through apoptosis, growth inhibition of HCT-116 cells in the presence of this compound was independent of apoptosis and more related to suppression of p27, p21, cyclin B1, cyclin D1, and CDK2 [@B46]. Another study conducted in 2012 demonstrated that silibinin also had inhibitory effect on LoVo colon cancer cells and that this effect occurred through the suppression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and AP-1 binding activity [@B51].

*In vivo* studies of Wistar rats and A/J mice induced by AOM also confirmed the anti-colorectal activity of silibinin. These extensive studies were


such as HCT-15, HT-29, CaCo-2, COLO-320 DM, and SW480. The studies together indicated that luteolin has the potential to control CRC through three main pathways: *i)* the apoptosis pathway by activating caspase-3, -7, and -9 in HT-29 cells [@B74]; *ii)* the PI3K/Akt and ERK pathways by inhibiting the IGF receptor (IGF-R) in HT-29 cells [@B75]; and *iii)* the Wnt/β-catenin/GSK-3β signaling pathway by modulating GSK-3β in HCT-15 cells and inhibiting β-catenin in COLO-320 DM cells [@B76], [@B77]. Through these main pathways, luteolin was able to activate DNA damage in CaCo-2 cells [@B78]. Furthermore, cell cycle arrest of HT-29 cells was induced by modulation and inhibition of CDK2 and cyclin D [@B75], [@B76]. Luteolin also inhibited SW480 and CaCo-2 cells by inducing cell cycle arrest in G2/M [@B79].

Pelargonidin
============

Pelargonidin is found in berries such as raspberries and strawberries. The efficiency of pelargonidin has been investigated against a variety of cell lines such as primary (CaCo-2) and metastatic (LoVo and LoVo/ADR) CRC cell lines and human colorectal adenocarcinoma (HT-29). No significant inhibitory effect has been reported in these cell lines [@B120], [@B121]. Mild inhibition of cell proliferation was reported, however, against HCT-116 cells at a concentration of 200 µg/ml [@B122].

Peonidin
========

Bilberry, blueberry, cherry, cranberry, and peach are the main sources of peonidin [@B114], which inhibits the growth of SW480 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Cell cycle arrest of SW480 cells occurred at the G1


Geometry Shader Output Limits

I am trying to determine the maximum number of vertices a geometry shader is able to output. I am trying to use the below code but the value printed out via an exception (128) works and my code gives me half that (64). I am using Java/JOGL and #version 150 for my shader. I am dividing by two because my geometry shader is outputting glPosition and a vec4 for color to my fragment shader.

The spec says the max number of vertices shouldn't exceed the MAX_GEOMETRY_OUTPUT_VERTICES and the product of the number of compunents and the value of MAX_GEOMETRY_OUTPUT_COMPONENTS. What exactly is a component? Why does the math say the value SHOULD be 64 when 128 works? How are you supposed to compute the max numberBuhari Rejects Proposal For Chad, Niger, Others To Head Central Force Against Boko

At a meeting with leaders of the Lake Chad nations Thursday in Abuja, Mr. Buhari insisted Nigeria must be the sole leader of the joint military operation.

He said a proposal that such leadership alternate amongst the participating nations after every six months, may ultimately undermine the joint operations.The president said his argument should be adopted since Nigeria remains at the centre of the Boko Haram crisis, and will provide the bulk of troops for the operation.

“While I agree that this is a joint operation with shared responsibilities, I am, however, of the opinion that military operations that are subjected to a rapid turnover of command and control structures, six months duration, as it is being proposed


Work needed to progress gender equity

Significant barriers remain in the role of middle managers in progressing gender equity in the public service, according to a new report by researchers at Victoria University of Wellington, Massey University and Auckland University of Technology (AUT).

Published in partnership with the Ministry for Women, the report was carried out as part of a wider project and in light of recent calls to address gender inequity.

The team of researchers conducted interviews with senior executives and middle managers from four public service agencies in New Zealand.

Their report, co-written by Professor Jane Parker from Massey University, and Ruth Weatherall, now at the University of Technology Sydney, alongside Victoria University’s Dr Noelle Donnelly, Dr Julie Douglas and Dr Katherine Ravenswood from AUT, shows middle managers report ongoinginitiatives were often fledgling in nature, and many managers had limited knowledge of their scope, character and application,” she says. “These initiatives need to include both interim and long-term goals and benchmarks.”

The report also recommends creating improved resources and capabilities to support managers in their role as facilitators of gender equity initiatives in their workplaces.

The Ministry for Women welcomes the report, adding that it contributes to understanding the drivers of gender pay gaps within organisations.

TIMMONS-GOODSON, Judge, dissenting.
Because I conclude that the trial court did not err in allowing the prosecution to cross-examine defendant with specific bad acts and elicit testimony from defendant's former girlfriend, I respectfully dissent.
"A criminal defendant is entitled to introduce evidence of his good character [on direct], thereby placing his character at issue. The State in rebuttal can then introduce evidence of defendant's bad character." State v.

Gappins, 320 N.C. 64, 69-70, 357 S.E.2d 654, 658 (1987), Rule 404(a)(1) limits the admission of character evidence introduced on direct to "pertinent traits" of character. However, in


273, 289-290, 410 S.E.2d 861, 870 (1991), the defendant "put his character into evidence" by "paint[ing] a picture of himself as a level-headed, peaceful individual who constantly was fending off verbal and physical attacks from the victim." The Court concluded that it was proper for the prosecution to cross-examine defendant "concerning this `pertinent' trait of character," and the Court held that the trial court did not err in allowing the prosecution to elicit details of the defendant's prior assault convictions.

How have you gathered your knowledge of clothing — from websites, books or somewhere else?

‘All of the above. The web came much later, though. Flusser’s book Clothes and the Man was a huge influence on me, as were issues of Apparel Arts from the 1930s. My local public library had (and still has) four issues of these, which I more or less memorized back in the day. I have also made it a point to visit every famous and not-so-famous clothing store whereverI travel and I have even taken a number of trips whose purpose was more or less to shop. London is a frequent destination and I have been going there for almost 30 years now. I also like to talk to tailors, shoemakers, cloth weavers, etc., and find that most of them are very generous with their advice, stories, lore, and opinions.’

Moravcova Tops Final FINA World Cup Rankings; Balcerzak is Top American

By Phillip Whitten

LAUSANNE, Switzerland. Jan. 29. SLOVAKIA'S Martina Moravcova was easily the dominant swimmer on the 2000-2001 FINA World Cup tour which ended yesterday in Paris. The Southern Methodist University grad, who still trains in Dallas, finished first in eight events, earning $32,000. In previous World Cup competition, no swimmer had ever won more than five events.

FINA released the final rankings in the 10-venue World Cup short course series, in which, to be eligible, a swimmer had to compete in at least one meet in each "zone" — the Americas, Asia/Oceania and Europe –to be eligible for the overall rankings and win prize money. Very few swimmers met that criterion and, as a result, no prize money wasOUR PRIVACY COMMITMENT

because the Lord had often met her in them.  Her poor mind was often
discouraged by heavy trials, within and without; her path, in many
instances, was rough; she was often in many waters; the floods at times
lifted up their waves; but here she learned the vanity of all things
below the stars, the emptiness of the creature, her own weakness,
unbelief, and rebellion, these were matters of humility to her; but in
this _right_ though _rough_ way, she also learnt the faithfulness, power,
wisdom, and goodness of God--the value of a throne of grace to carry her
burden to, and empty her ashes at the foot of the altar.  Her mind was
seldom long from the general infirmity of the Lord's people, I mean the
fear of death; she often gloomily anticipated the last


act, the struggle
of body and soul at parting her weak nerves, lowness, and dejection.
Satan also, taking the advantage, was frequently the cause of great
distress in the prospect; yet her dear Lord, in due time, delivered her
from these fears; and that same grace which made her willing to be saved
in God's way, made her also willing, yea, desirous of departing, to be
with Christ.  How true is the language of our poet,

       "Who can take Death's portrait true?--Fear shakes the
    Pencil--Fancy loves excess--Dark ignorance is lavish of
    Her shades--and these the formidable picture draws:
    Man forms a death that nature never made;

A series of experiments was therefore conducted to examine both possibilities. Cells were taken from Fed-Batch cultivations at varying OD levels, washed in 0.98% (w/v) sodium chloride under sterile conditions and resuspended in fresh cultivation medium (M2SF medium). Simultaneously, the filtrated supernatants of the same Fed-Batch samples were inoculated with new *R. rubrum* cells from an aerobic preculture. In a control culture, PM expression was induced when microaerobic conditions were reached due to oxygen consumption by cell growth at OD = 1, as expected. All cultures were grown under microaerobic conditions in shake flasks until their stationary phases.not considered further. The more abundant peaks were isolated by semi-preparative HPLC as pure fractions and applied to the *A. tumefaciens* NTL4 autoinducer bioassay on agar plates (Figure [4](#F4){ref-type="fig"}).

At population densities, OD ≤ 11, accumulation of *luxR1* and *luxI* mRNAs correlate with the appearance of C8-HSL, C10OH-HSL and C8OH-HSL and PM levels (Figure [7](#F7){ref-type="fig"}). Accordingly, with an increasing cell density, the PM production and the accumulation of C8-HSL, C10OH-HSL, *luxR1* and *luxI* mRNA decreased. The time-point of rapid and substantial C8OH-HSL accumulation coincided with the accumulation of both PPIX and Mg-PPIX-mme,Passengers rescue man trapped between train and platform (VIDEO)

Several dozen passengers pushed a train in Australia to help a fellow commuter, whose leg got stuck in between a carriage and platform.

A man was about to board a center bound train at Stirling station
in Perth, Western Australia, when his leg slipped into a gap.

The episode and what followed next was captured by CCTV cameras
and later posted online by the Public Transport Authority of
Western Australia.

The train driver was instructed not to move the vehicle, while
the station staff started thinking of the ways to get the man out
of the trap. Witnesses say the first idea was to ask all the
passengers to move to the opposite side of the train, so that it
would tilt from the platform, but that didn’t work.

have asked that night, went without an answer.

Let’s set aside the insolent manner in which the moderator delivered his response to the old gentleman’s question—and the remarkable fact that he clearly believed he was speaking for all the scholars on the panel, and for every intelligent person in the room. What are we to make of the substance of his answer? What are we to make of the claim that the old view that the Torah was given at Sinai should now be set aside and replaced by a new one according to which God’s revelation to Israel was “unfolded” over the course of many generations as anonymous scribes kept editing and re-editing the sources and pieces and bits of text at their disposal until somehow the textsand its composition; and now, increasingly, in the area of Jewish theology as well? Or does Open Orthodoxy have the capacity for a truly skeptical or critical appraisal of academic biblical criticism—by which I mean an appraisal that may involve the rejection of many of the premises and conclusions that the academic Bible Studies consensus holds dear?

Personally, I want no part in any movement that chooses the first road. But that is of course not very important. More important is this: I have no doubt whatsoever that if Open Orthodoxy—or “Modern Orthodoxy” more generally—chooses to grant the main stream of critical Bible scholarship a de facto authority in its institutions, these movements will quickly lose their way. That is, they will quickly lose the capacity to distinguish truth

As use of online data collection systems increases, it is important to establish whether online administration of RBAs outside of class provides equivalent data to the traditional in-class, paper-and-pencil administration methods [@Bugbee1996].

Literature Review
=================

While substantial research has compared paper-and-pencil tests (PPT) with online computer-based tests (CBT) on graded, high-stakes assessments, little of it has focused on low-stakes RBAs as pretests and posttests in college settings, for which participation may be optional. In investigations of low-stakes assessments, it is critical to look at participation rates as well as performance results. If CBTs lead to lower participation rates or skewing of participation ratesdetails on the LASSO platform are provided in the Methods). The size and variety of this data set allows researchers to perform investigations that would be underpowered if conducted at only a few institutions or would lack generalizability if only conducted in a few courses at a single institution.

Methods
=======

Setting
-------

The data collection for the study occurred at a large regional public university in the United States that is a Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI) with an enrollment of approximately 34,000 undergraduate students and 5,000 graduate students. The university has a growing number of engineering majors and large numbers of biology and pre-health majors, all of whom are required to take introductory physics.

We collected data from 27 sections of three different introductory physics courses (algebra-based mechanics, calculus-based mechanics, and calculus-based electricity &


are coded as favorable, neutral, or unfavorable based on agreement with expert responses. We analyzed the overall favorable score in the present study on a 0-100% scale. We obtained course grades from the course instructors and student demographics from the institution.

During the first semester of data collection [@Authors], the research team provided the instructors with little guidance on how to motivate students to complete their CBT. Participation rates varied greatly across instructors. The research team asked the instructors what practices they used to motivate students, and identified four instructor practices associated with higher student CBT participation rates. The research team adopted these four instructor practices as recommended practices:

1.  multiple email reminders,

2.  multiple in-class announcements,

3.  participation credit for the pretest, and

4.  participation credit for theposttest.

During the second semester of data collection, the research team advised all instructors to use the recommended practices to increase student participation. At the end of the second semester, we asked the instructors what they had done to motivate students to participate in their CBTs. We used instructor responses to assign each section a Recommended Practices score ranging from zero to four according to the number of recommended practices they implemented. All analyses presented in this article include both semesters of data.

Analysis
========

We used the HLM 7 software package to analyze the data using Hierarchical Linear Models (HLM). HLM is a method of modeling that leverages information in the structure of nested data. In our data, measurements (student scores on assessments) nested within students and students nested within course


participation between each of the course grades.

Using the hypothesis testing function in the HLM software and Model 3, we generated the logits and standard errors for participation for each course grade under each assessment condition using the population mean for gender (0.39) and plotted these values in Figure 3. We used the mean value for gender so that we could focus on the differences in predicted average participation rates across assessment conditions and course grades. The figure does not include the PPT pretest because the model predicted that the participation rates across all course grades ranged from 96% to 100%, which is too small of a difference to be visible in Figure 4. Model 3 indicates that for both the CBT and PPT posttests all four grades (A-D)were statistically significantly more likely to participate than students who received an F in the course. Receiving a grade of F is not shown in the model because it is incorporated in the intercept. Figure 3 illustrates that students who received an A, B, or C had more similar participation rates than students who received a D or F. This is particularly evident when the participation rates are higher, such as on the PPT posttest or on both CBT assessments when 3 or 4 recommended practices were used. These results indicate that the data collection in these courses disproportionately represented higher achieving students in both assessment conditions. Given that the raw participation rates and differences in grades between those that did and did not participate were both similar


we built separate sets of models for performance on the concept inventories(CI) and on the attitudinal surveys (AS). We built these models in the same three steps to investigate performance differences between CBT and PPTs. The first model differentiated between pretest and posttest scores with a variable at level 1. The second model differentiates between assessments administered as CBTs or PPTs at with a variable at level 2. The third model added variables to differentiate between the three courses at level 3. In our analysis of these models, we first present the change in the variance between the models to identify how much of the variability in scores was explained by whether students took the assessments as CBT or PPT. Following the analysis of the variance, we presentthe size and consistency of the differences in scores between the two assessment conditions.

For both the CI models and the AS models the total variance did not meaningfully decrease between Models 1, 2, and 3 (see bottom of Table 6). Model 2 differentiates between students who took the CI as PPT or CBT. For both the AS and CI models this differentiation caused the total variance in the models to increase. The increase in the total variance was very small for the CI models (<+1% from 270.8 to 272.7) and small for the AS models (+2.8% from 195.52 to 200.92). Increases in the variance for each sets of models is a strong indication that there were no differences in scores between those administered as CBTs and those administered


and the CI Model 3, the CBT condition was not a statistically significant predictor of score in any course. None of the assessment condition coefficients were statistically significantly different from zero on either the pretest or posttest. The hypothesis testing function in the HLM software generated means and standard errors based on the CI and AS Model 3s, presented in Figure 5. Figure 5 and both Model 3s all show that the differences between CBT and PPT scores were small (ranging from -2.1% to 2.2%) and that scores were not consistently higher in either assessment condition than in the other. In seven cases, the PPT was higher. In five cases, the CBT was higher. These results indicate that there was not a consistent, meaningful, or reliable difference inbegins with their swelling and water absorption. Accordingly, moisture conditions, a precondition for seed germination, have a significant effect on seed germination. Seeds can only germinate after absorbing a certain amount of water, which is important for the growth of the resulting seedlings. The seeds of different types of plants have different water absorption and germination requirements. FW can directly reflect the water absorption of the seed and the accumulation of biomass. Bajwa et al. \[[@pone.0216575.ref052]\] reported that the application of low concentrations (10--40 μM) of melatonin increased the FW of *Arabidopsis* compared with high-concentration (200--400 μM) applications. Our results showed that melatonin (10--200 μM) can increase the FW of the seeds, with the 20 μM melatonin treatment having the strongest effect and also reaching a significant level


([Fig 3C](#pone.0216575.g003){ref-type="fig"}). This result indicates that 20 μM melatonin promotes the water absorption or water absorption rate during seed germination and thus promotes the accumulation of biomass inside seeds, and the inhibitory effect of high concentrations of melatonin on FW was not observed in our study, probably because the highest melatonin concentration examined was insufficient to elicit this response.

As a byproduct of aerobic metabolism \[[@pone.0216575.ref053], [@pone.0216575.ref054]\], reactive oxygen species (ROS) exist in the form of non-free radicals, including hydrogen peroxide (H~2~O~2~), and free radical forms, such as O~2~•^−^. The antioxidant system formed during plant evolution contributes to the balance of active oxygen metabolism. The antioxidant defense system includes the enzymatic system and non-enzymatic system. SOD and POD are essential antioxidant enzymes that can effectively eliminate superfluous ROS, suchvarious antioxidant enzymes \[[@pone.0216575.ref061]\]. This was in accord with observations in the current study.

Plant damage is closely related to membrane lipid peroxidation induced by reactive oxygen species accumulation. The accumulation of ROS and free radicals in organisms often leads to membrane lipid peroxidation and causes metabolic disorders. The integrity of cell structure is the basis of seed vigor, so once the cell membrane system is destroyed, leakage increases throughout the progression of germination. MDA is a product of lipid peroxidation, so it represents the level of lipid peroxidation and the degree of membrane damage in cells. The MDA content under the 20 μM melatonin treatment was the lowest, but not significantly, while the high-concentration (100--200 μM) treatments significantly increased the MDA content ([Fig 5](#pone.0216575.g005){ref-type="fig"}). This indicates that low

After People v. James, supra, 189 Cal. App.2d 14, 10 Cal.Rptr. 809, other California decisions have followed, or cited while distinguishing, the rule of consistency, but without independent analysis. (E.g., People v. Reeves (1967) 250 Cal.App.2d 490, 492, 58 Cal.Rptr. 517; People v. Holzer (1972) 25 Cal.App.3d 456, 459, 102 Cal. Rptr. 11; People v. Superior Court (Jackson) (1975) 44 Cal.App.3d 494, 498, 118 Cal.Rptr. 702; People v. Austin (1994) 23 Cal.App.4th 1596, 1603, 28 Cal.Rptr.2d 885.) We have cited it in dicta. (People v. Taylor (1974) 12 Cal.3d 686, 694-695, 117 Cal.Rptr. 70, 527 P.2d 622; People v. Chapman (1984) 36 Cal.3d 98, 115, 201only shows that the verdicts here were inconsistent, not that the inconsistency requires reversal of the guilty verdict. In the third case, Hartzel v. United States (1944) 322 U.S. 680, 64 S.Ct. 1233, 88 L.Ed. 1534, three defendants were tried together and convicted of certain crimes, including conspiracy. The trial court had set aside two of the defendants' convictions because of insufficient evidence. Without analysis or citation to authority, the high *17 court stated that the codefendants "were the only co-conspirators of petitioner named in the indictment and the setting aside of their convictions makes it impossible to sustain petitioner's conviction upon the basis of ... the conspiracy count." (Id. at p. 682, fn. 3., 64 S.Ct. 1233) The court seemed to be saying that because the evidence


that the inconsistency may be the result of lenity, coupled with the Government's inability to invoke review, suggests that inconsistent verdicts should not be reviewable." (Id. at p. 66, 105 S.Ct. 471.) The court rejected "a rule that would allow criminal defendants to challenge inconsistent verdicts on the ground that in their case the verdict was not the product of lenity, but of some error that worked against them. Such an individualized assessment of the reason for the inconsistency would be based either on pure speculation, or would require inquiries into the jury's deliberations that courts generally will not undertake.... *18 [W]ith few exceptions [citations], once the jury has heard the evidence and the case has been submitted, the litigants must accept the jury's collective judgment. Courts haverule of consistency may be a vestige of the past"]; see Hoheb, at p. 143 (cone. opn. of Garth, J.) ["the rule of consistency since Standefer and Powell is no longer a viable doctrine"]; but see U.S. v. Boling (6th Cir. 1989) 884 F.2d 924, 926 [simply citing while distinguishing the rule].)
We too believe the rule of consistency should be reconsidered. The general rationale behind the rule has been "that one may not conspire with himself." (People v. James, supra, 189 Cal.App.2d at p. 16, 10 Cal.Rptr. 809.) It does take at least two to conspire. But to go "[f]rom this irrefutable proposition" to a rule requiring reversal of the inconsistent verdict is a "precipitous leap." (U.S. v. Andrews, supra, 850 F.2d at p. 1560.) We find the

[Citation.] The original basis and rationale for the rule largely vanished, of course, with the onset of pervasive evidentiary review just after the beginning of the twentieth century. [Citation.] Nonetheless, the rule itself has stubbornly persisted in various forms even to the present. [Citations.] [¶] This exposition in R. v. Shannon of the historical basis for the rule makes abundantly clear its inappropriateness to a modern American criminal justice system in which all verdicts obviously are ... subject to independent review for evidentiary support and where apparently inconsistent verdicts are almost uniformly tolerated whether explainable by variances in proof or merely as jury license."

Such inconsistency does not necessarily entail error on the part of any of the juries in question. The source need be found in nothing more than the possibility that each drew differing inferences from differing evidence. But, inasmuch as mistake, compromise, and nullification cannot be ruled out entirely, neither can error.
As for the first general scenario for inconsistent verdicts, I agree that we should abandon the so-called rule of consistency, which requires virtually automatic reversal of an inconsistent conviction. It is true that, under this scenario, we know that error, arising from mistake, compromise, or nullification, tainted either the inconsistent acquittal or the inconsistent conviction. But we simply do not know whether error tainted


material. Although this is an effective ultrasonic silencer, high-pressure loss is observed as the gas flows through the foam plug. Furthermore, the foam plug acts to filter dirt and absorb liquids in the flow stream. Thus, the open-cell foam plug silencer is only suitable for use in clean gas service and in systems that can accommodate high pressure loss through the silencer.
French Publication No. 2,737,564 (the contents of which are hereby incorporated herein by reference for all purposes) discloses another type of silencer that relies on both absorption and reflection to attenuate stray ultrasonic noise. This type of silencer includes a chamber with walls formed of a closed-cell, visco-elastic, absorbing material that is porous, such as, for example, a polyurethane foam, with a pore size chosen to absorbwaves move between the chamber inlet and outlet. Silencers of this type are effective for use with ultrasonic flow meters operating at essentially atmospheric pressures of approximately 1 bar. However, a closed cell, visco-elastic foam exhibits an acoustic performance that decreases with increasing pressure. Namely, these closed-cell foam materials do not perform well at high pressures (up to 400 bar) because they tend to compress, thereby reducing the thickness and void fraction of the material to significantly reduce the sound absorbing quality of the foam.
Thus, to overcome deficiencies associated with prior silencers, it would be desirable for an ultrasonic silencer to be comprised of an absorbing material capable of maintaining its absorbing characteristics under high pressure operating conditions up to 400 bar. Further, it would be advantageous to

Hek is a member of the eph subfamily of receptor tyrosine kinases whose members include elk, hek2, sek, eph and eck among others. Using a soluble form of hek consisting of the extracellular region of the receptor fused to the Fc domain of human IgG1 and an expression cloning strategy, we have isolated two different but related cDNAs from the human T-lymphoma line HSB-2 that encode ligands for hek. The cDNAs encode proteins of 238 and 201 amino acids (44% amino acid identity) that are anchored to the membrane by glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-linkage. The proteins encoded by these cDNAs are bound by hek with affinity constants of 2 x 10(8) M-1. These proteins4 months ago

NCAA D1 Athlademic Ratings

We came across this table last week, but haven’t had time to properly analyze it until today. An organization called the National Collegiate Scouting Assn. (NCSA) evaluated how schools are doing in their totality by ranking them in the classroom and on the fields of play, using the US News academic and Sears Cup athletic rankings as their evaluative criteria.

If they’d just stopped there, we’d have no problem with their rankings. However, they also felt a need to add a third criterion – the NCAA’s school graduation rates for student-athletes, which have been long derided as archaic, inconsistent and generally not useful as a tool for determining how well a school is serving and educating its student-athletes.


about the ridiculousness of its weighting system. UCLA (#25 US News and #2 Sears Cup) would earn a rating of 13.5 in our system, which would place the Bruins #4 on our overall list. USC (#27 US News and #5 Sears Cup) would earn a rating of 16.0, placing the Trojans #7 overall.

Update #2: After reviewing NCSA’s data, we decided a whole new post was warranted. We revamp the entire list and also take a look at how the BCS conferences stack up in our Athlademic Ratings – Revised.

I am surprised that UCLA did not make your list. We are usually in the top 25 of the US News academic rankings and we tend make other top 10,25, and 50 academic lists(some academics dislike the US News rankings, but that is the most popular). We also have a record 100 NCAA titles and we have the most number of titles for a wide range of sports, including men’s basketball, men’s volleyball, and maybe men’s and women’s water polo. I would think these achievements and academic merit would place UCLA is a top 50 athletic/academic combo. But hey, we all can manipulate numbers to produce whatever list we want. It also seems fishy that USC is not on your list. While I hate giving USC props, they also have a large number of NCAA titles to boast and they also have a high academic ranking. Maybe you just hate LA.

Weta’s VFX Supervisor Kevin Smith said, “After five years working on The Hobbit trilogy, and going on to the next Guardians of the Galaxy movie, which will run for nine months to a year, the shortness of making Wilderpeople’s pig was quite a pleasant interlude.”

Often those major studios projects on“so furry creatures are pretty easy.”

When Wilderpeople came in Weta was already working on a couple of other features mixing live action with CG creatures: Alvin and the Chipmunks: Road Chip and the King Louis sequence for the just-released live action adaptation of The Jungle Book.

The company’s also been busy on Batman Vs Superman, Deadpool as well as several upcoming studio titles: Steven Spielberg’s BFG, Rawson Marshall Thurber’s Central Intelligence, Nic Mathieu’s Spectral, as well as a couple of 2017 titles, Luc Besson’s Valerian and Matt Reeves’ War for the Planet of the Apes.


Lately, more and more A-list authors are bypassing traditional publishers and self-publishing through various e-book venues.

Why ?

Some, I imagine, go indie because it’s there and they just want to try. Others jump on the self-publishing band wagon to have more freedom and control and still others like the higher margin (even though it’s a higher margin of a cheaper price — think ‘volume’ here).

Tim Ferriss, A-list author of the 4-Hour Workweek and 4-Hour Body AND the subject of tonight’s post, gives great insight into other reasons why established authors are dumping TPs for digital-publishing through the Amazon platform — like the detailed data intelligence (analytics) provided (who’s buying the ebook & sites driving the most sales, etc) — data never provided by TPs.

53Carter administration, Perry served as Undersecretary of Defense for Research and Engineering, where he had responsibility for weapon systems procurement and research and development. Among other achievements, he was instrumental in the development of stealth aircraft technology. Not all of the programs he developed were as well-received, however. As journalist Paul Glastris wrote in the Washington Monthly:

As under secretary, Perry effectively controlled which emerging technologies and weapons systems would receive R&D funds and which systems the Pentagon would procure. Among the regrettable high-tech weapons systems he gave the green light to: the MX missile (still no basing system), the TV-guided Maverick missile (fighter pilots become sitting ducks when they launch them), the F-18 fighter (costs more, performs worse than the planes it replaced), the Aquila Remotely Piloted Vehicle


United States of allowing the war to continue were greater than the risks of the planned military operation.

The first U.S. troops moved into Bosnia in early December 1995, and by late January 1996 the full complement of 20,000 had been deployed. Although Perry had said earlier that they would leave Bosnia within a year, in June 1996 he hinted at a longer stay if NATO decided the peace in Bosnia would not hold without them. The secretary agreed to a study proposed in September 1996 by NATO defense ministers for a follow-on force to replace IFOR. Finally in November 1996, after the presidential election, Clinton announced, with Perry's support, that the United States would provide 8,500 troops to a NATO follow-on force. The U.S. force would be graduallyof $4 billion, to replace existing or partially constructed facilities that could produce plutonium for nuclear weapons. North Korea then agreed to open its nuclear facilities to international inspection, and the United States pledged to lift trade restrictions and provide fuel oil for electric power generation. Perry considered this agreement better than risking a war in Korea and a continuation of North Korea's nuclear program. He promised that he would ask Congress for money to build up U.S. forces in South Korea if the agreement broke down. Again a critical situation had moderated, but implementing the agreement proved difficult. By the end of Perry's term some issues remained outstanding, and tension between the two Koreas flared up from time to time.

Biphasic ceramic bone substitute mixed with autogenous bone marrow in the treatment of cavitary benign bone lesions.
A prospective study was performed on 34 patients to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a composite bone substitute formed of hydroxyapatite and tricalcium phosphate (Ceraform) with or without gentamycin sulphate (Ceraform-Genta) plus autogenous bone marrow aspirate in the treatment of cavitary bone defects related with benign bone lesions. At the end of the follow-up period, all patients were evaluated clinically for pain and a daily living activity score, and radiologically regarding the time and quality of bone healing, using a modified Neer grading system. Satisfactory clinical outcome without pain or impairment of daily living activities was seen in 97.1% of patients. Radiologically, 70.6% of the lesions were completely healed and 26.5%they are convenient to store kitchen towels and other useful utensils.

Kitchen sofas can be made using a variety of materials: kozhzama, furniture fabric and wood (sofa-bench). But in this case the practicality of the upholstery comes out on top! In the kitchen, it is so easy to stain the fabric with food. Therefore, you should immediately orient yourself either to dark shades, or an option of upholstery that will be easily cleaned with the help of modern detergents.

Have you decided on the choice of fabric upholstery? Then it is necessary to install the most powerful hood, so that all the soot and pollution do not settle on the beautiful fabric of the sofa.

Of course, the best option - it's genuine leather. It looks great in the interior, it


Color stability of siloranes versus methacrylate-based composites after immersion in staining solutions.
The purpose of this study was to determine, by using a spectrophotometer device, the color stability of silorane in comparison with four methacrylate-based composites after being immersed in different staining solutions such as coffee, black tea, red wine, orange juice, and coke, and distilled water as control group. Four restorative methacrylate-based composites (Filtek Z250, TetricEvoCeram, Venus Diamond, and Grandio) and one silorane (FiltekSilorane) of shade A2 were selected to measure their color stability (180 disk samples) after 4 weeks of immersion in six staining solutions: black tea, coffee, red wine, orange juice, coke, and distilled water. The specimen's color was measured each week by means of a spectrophotometer (CIE L*a*b* system).

Q:

testing an in app purchase?

i developed a application with in app purchases..when user buys the subscription it gets stored on my server..after testing it few times i deleted the data from server to test it again but when i buy it the sandbox environment says u

you already purchased this.TAP OK to download it again for free

also i have used this test account on my previous application?? does it means i will have to create a new test account for this application?? also by mistake i used this account on apple store..i read somewhere that doing this will make your test account invalid...is it true?? should i create a new account for it??

A:

For first question -
Since you are using the non-consumable model "you already purchased this.TAP OK tobarred by laches unless we have a firm and definite conviction that a mistake has been committed. Young v. Williams, 583 P.2d 201, 204 (Alaska 1978)... . This is the same test used to determine whether a trial judge's findings are "clearly erroneous."
Pavlik v. State, Dep't. of Community and Regional Affairs, 637 P.2d 1045, 1047 (Alaska 1981) (citation omitted).
The superior court correctly identified the test: Laches requires that the plaintiff has unreasonably delayed in bringing the action, resulting in undue prejudice to the other party. City and Borough of Juneau v. Breck, 706 P.2d 313, 315 (Alaska 1985). The court found that Emerson, Schnabel's predecessor-in-interest, knew of the State's claim for at least twenty years. Neither this finding, nor the implicit decision that twenty years is "unreasonable," is


clearly erroneous. Even if a stale claim could be revived by transferring the underlying interest, which it generally cannot, Schnabel would still be barred. He claims to have been ignorant of the foreclosure judgment and ensuing deed to the Territory until ten years after he bought his quitclaim deed. By then, the foreclosure judgment and deed had been a matter of public record for over thirty years. One who purchases a mere quitclaim deed cannot insulate himself from the consequences by not checking the record. Even after Schnabel "discovered" the State's interest, he took no action to challenge the foreclosure until five years later, on the eve of trial in September of 1985, when he filed an answer to Foster's second amended complaint.[19]*466 We think that this delaywas unreasonable.
The court also found that "[t]he State is prejudiced by the problems inherent in having to defend an action undertaken nearly 30 years ago. Evidence that may have been available at the time is most likely not still available." For example, if the record owner had actual notice, then procedural deficiencies would be cured. Yet, this would be very difficult to establish 30 years later. The court's finding is not clearly erroneous.
For these reasons, we AFFIRM the superior court's holding that Schnabel's claim is barred by laches.
MOORE, J., with whom BURKE, J., joins, concurring.
MOORE, Justice, with whom BURKE, Justice, joins, concurring.
I concur. However, in my opinion, Schnabel lacks standing to contest the adequacy of notice given by the Territory prior to its 1957 foreclosure.
The test for standing


Emerson to continue his adverse possession. The causal connection between the allegedly defective notice and Schnabel's present predicament is too attenuated to confer standing upon him.
The causation aspect of standing has never been well developed by this court. However, federal courts have addressed the issue at length. To have standing in federal court, a litigant must show that but for the challenged action, his injury would not have occurred. See Warth v. Seldin, 422 U.S. 490, 504-08, 95 S.Ct. 2197, 2207-2210, 45 L.Ed.2d 343, 358-59 (1975) (in a challenge of restrictive zoning practices, litigants lacked standing because they failed to allege facts showing that, "absent the respondents' restrictive zoning practices, there is a substantial probability that they would have been able to purchase or lease in Penfield"). Inparty  namely, the former record owner. A litigant can have standing to protect the constitutional rights of a third party when a special relationship exists between the two, and when the third party's rights would otherwise go unasserted. This court allowed standing on this basis in Wagstaff v. Superior Court, Family Court Division, 535 P.2d 1220, 1226 (Alaska 1975). However, in Schnabel's case, this basis for standing is totally inapposite: Schnabel seeks to vindicate the rights of the former record owner not to protect that person, but instead to possess adversely against him. In other words, Schnabel is not an appropriate representative.
For these reasons, I would affirm the superior court's holding that Schnabel lacks standing. As for the defense of laches, I agree that it would otherwise

Oh, the joy of raising children! (any story that begins this way must be good, right?)

I must admit, there is never a dull moment in our house, especially since the kids are growing up and beginning to spread their wings just a bit. All three of them are at an age now where they are beginning to assume more responsibility. This means learning to do new things around the house. The boys, being older than sister, are the first ones to learn how to do things for themselves and to help me out when I need it. One favorite for the boys right now is learning to do things in the kitchen. (Yes, I let my boys help in the kitchen. I believe thatpot. When I turned around, the younger of our two boys, Little D, was already there working on it. When he realized what I had come over to do, he looked up at me and with that big boy, take charge tone, he said, “I got this.” This is something new for Little D, so I was reluctant to leave him with the task. He was so sure of himself , however, that I decided to let him do it all by himself. I went on about my business and never thought anything else about it.

This morning when I walked into the kitchen, still half asleep, I saw my husband bent down looking at the coffee pot. As I approached the scene I could see Daddy B wiping


and make another pot of coffee so that Daddy B could be on his way to work.

After everything settled back down and I had a moment to reflect on the situation, I could not help but chuckle at what had happened. After all, these are the things of which memories are made.

As I thought more about what had happened, I could not help but hear Little D’s voice over and over in my head saying, “I got this.” He was so sure that he knew what he was doing. He wanted to prove to me that he could handle this task all by himself.

Friends, how many times do we treat God this way?

How many times do we face a task, a trial, or a new situation and say,that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.”)

Once you have done these things, Jesus will begin to work in your heart and in your life. He will begin to grow you into the person He wants you to be.

If you follow God’s word and listen to His commandments, you can be assured that when the Lord comes back for His children, you will not be left behind. You will not have to face the many terrible things that are to come. You will have a home waiting for you in Heaven.

I pray, today, that you have taken these steps to prepare for what is to come. I


finishing a project over the weekend and you woke up this morning to yet another thing left undone.

We all have those times when no matter how hard we try we do not meet the requirements we set for ourselves. In that moment we feel like failures. We feel as if we may never get it right. We realize that we are imperfect people.

We must stop focusing on our flaws and all the times we fail to hit the mark. We must begin to focus on God and the work He is doing in us. We must realize that we are all works in progress. Every time we fail, every time we fall down, we need to see it as another opportunity to learn something new. God is teaching$f(K)=K$. We will denote this group by $\mathfrak{diff}^{r}(K)$.

1.  The isomorphism class of this group is independent of the embedding of the line $L$ in $M$ and of the manifold $M$, as long as $\mathrm{dim}(M) \geq 2$. This is a consequence of the second definition below, which is independent of $L$ and $M$, and of the equivalence between the two definitions. However, if we look at the same group in the case where $M$ is a circle, we only obtain a strict subgroup of the latter group as elements of the group have to preserve a cyclic order.

2.  If $G$ is a group acting on a manifold $M$ by $C^{r}$ diffeomorphisms with such a Cantor set $K$ as a minimal set, then there exists a nontrivial morphism


to $J_{j}$ is the identity if $J_{j} \notin A$ and is the symmetry with respect to the center of $J_{j}$ if $J_{j} \in A$.

![An example of diffeomorphism of $K_{2}$[]{data-label="diffeoK2"}](diffeoK2)

Of course, we can define a similar algorithm to construct elements of $\mathfrak{diff}^{r}(K_{n})$.

For any $r \geq 1$, the group $\mathfrak{diff}^{r}(K_{n})$ is the group consisting of elements constructed following the above procedure.

Strictly speaking, Funar and Neretin proved only the case where $n=2$ but their proof also applies in the case of the Cantor sets $K_{n}$ for $n>2$. Notice that this group does not depend on the regularity $r \geq 1$ : this seems to be a consequence of the “regular” shape of this Cantor set.

Inside $\mathfrak{diff}^{r}(K_{n})$, there is a natural subgroup : the subgroup consisting of elements which are constructed usingonly the first two steps of the above procedure. This subgroup is the well-known Higman-Thompson group $V_{n}$.

In this article, we prove some general results about the groups $\mathrm{diff}^{r}(K)$. These theorems tend to prove that those groups share common features with rank one simple Lie groups. In what follows, we fix a Cantor set $K$ embedded in $\mathbb{R}$.

Burnside property
-----------------

A group $G$ is *periodic* if any element of the group $G$ has a finite order.

In 1902, Burnside asked the question whether there existed finitely generated periodic groups which are infinite (see [@Bur]). Nine years later, Schur managed to prove that any finitely generated periodic group which is a subgroup of $GL_{n}(\mathbb{C})$ has to be finite. Much later, in the 60’s, Golod and Shafarevich proved in [@GoS] that there existed infinite


$g_{n}$ in $G$ such that $g_{n}(y_{n}) \neq y_{n}$. Then there exists a non-trivial morphism $G \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$.

As this lemma is slightly different than the standard result (see [@Thu]), we prove it. We adapt the proof from Schachermayer (see [@Sch]).

Take a symmetric finite generating set $\left\{ s_{1}, s_{2}, \ldots, s_{r} \right\}$ of $G$. For any $i$, let $\tilde{s}_{i}$ be a diffeomorphism of a neighbourhood $U_{i}$ of $x_{0}$ in the line $L$ (onto its image) such that $$\tilde{s}_{i|K \cap U_{i}}=s_{i|K\cap U_{i}}.$$ Let $U$ be a neighbourhood of $x_{0}$ in $L$ which is contained in all the open sets $U_{i}$ and which is diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}$. In what follows, we identify the set $U$ with the real line $\mathbb{R}$ Take $n$ sufficiently large so that $y_{n} \in U$ and, for anyis finite. Suppose the action of the group $G(F)$ on $F$ has an infinite minimal invariant subset $K_{1} \subset F$. Then the set $K_{1}$ has to be a Cantor set. Hence, by Proposition \[SackCantor\], the action of $G(F)$ on $K_{1}$ has a hyperbolic fixed point. It is impossible as the group $G(F)$ consists of finite order elements by hypothesis.

We then need the following claim.

The action of the group $G(F)$ on $F$ has only finite orbits.

Suppose there exists a point $p$ of $F$ such that the orbit $G.p$ is infinite. Take a minimal invariant set $K_{2} \subset \overline{G.p}$ for the action of $G(F)$ on $F$. We just saw that the set $K_{2}$ has to be finite. Take the finite index subgroup $G_{2}$ of $G(F)$ consisting of elements which pointwise


under all the elements of the group $H$.

\[minpoint\] There exists a finite index subgroup $G_{1}$ of $G$ such that the two following properties hold.

1.  Any minimal invariant subset for the action of $G_{1}$ on $K$ is a point of $\mathrm{Fix}(G_{1})$.

2.  For any diffeomorphism $g$ in the group $G_{1}$ and any point $p$ of $\mathrm{Fix}(G_{1})$, we have $$g'(p)>0.$$

We start the proof of this proposition by the following lemma, which is more or less a consequence of Sacksteder’s Theorem.

\[minimalfinite\] Any minimal invariant subset for the action of the group $G$ on $K$ is finite.

If one looks closely at the proof of Sacksteder’s theorem, one can see that it implies directly that, if the action of the group $G$ on the Cantor set $K$ has an infinite minimal invariantq \right\}$, where $V$ is a left-neighbourhood of $q$ in $F$. However, our proof does not work with this weaker hypothesis. This is due to the various speeds of convergence of the orbits to the point $q$ that can exist. The hypothesis of Lemma \[Holder\] that we took avoids this problem.

Let $H$ be a group and $\preceq$ be an order on $H$. The order $\preceq$ is called

1.  *total* if, for any elements $h_{1}$ and $h_{2}$ of $H$, either $h_{1} \preceq h_{2}$ or $h_{2} \preceq h_{1}$.

2.  *biinvariant* if, for any elements $h_{1}$, $h_{2}$ and $h_{3}$ of $H$, $$h_{1} \preceq h_{2} \Rightarrow h_{3}h_{1} \preceq h_{3}h_{2}$$ and $$h_{1} \preceq h_{2} \Rightarrow h_{1}h_{3} \preceq h_{2}h_{3}.$$

3.  *Archimedean* if, for any element $h_{1}$ and $h_{2}$ of $H$ with $1 \prec h_{2}$


\[Holder\]. However, proving this fact is harder than in the first case.

Suppose for a contradiction that there exists $\alpha>0$ and a diffeomorphism $g_{1}$ in $G_{1}$ such that

1.  The diffeomorphism $g_{1}$ is increasing on $[p-\alpha,p]$.

2.  There exists a point $x$ in $K_{1} \cap [p-\alpha,p)$ such that $g_{1}(x)=x$.

3.  The diffeomorphism $g_{1}$ does not fix all the points of $[x,p] \cap K_{1}$.

Let $p_{1}<p_{2}$ be two points of $[x,p] \cap \mathrm{Fix}(g_{1})$ such that $K_{1} \cap (p_{1},p_{2}) \neq \emptyset$ and, for any point $x$ in $K_{1} \cap (p_{1},p_{2})$, $g_{1}(x) \neq x$. In this second case, Proposition \[minabelian\] is a consequence of the two following lemmas.

\[crossing\] There exists an element $h$ of $G_{1}$ such that $p_{1} < h(p_{1}) < p_{2}$ and the diffeomorphism $h$ is increasing on $[p_{1},p]$.

Before stating the secondphagocytosing those symbionts^[@CR9],[@CR10]^. Sponges may also use DOC directly if it is sufficiently abundant. However both microbial and eukaryotic symbionts are known to be absent from the tissues of *Aphrocallistes vastus*, the dominant species that forms kilometer-long sponge reefs in the Strait of Georgia^[@CR11],[@CR12]^, and DOC is not part of *A. vastus'* diet^[@CR13]^.

Glass sponges are one of the few filter-feeding species that are common in the deep ocean even though heterotrophic plankton concentrations are relatively low compared to shallow water (10^5^ vs 10^6^ cells ml^−1^)^[@CR14]^. They are found on the abyssal plain throughout the world^[@CR15]--[@CR20]^ and form dense communities in shallow (\<500 m) water in Antarctica and the fjords of New Zealand and western North America^[@CR21]--[@CR26]^. Sponge reefs are particularly dense communities of filtration units. In the Strait of

Whereas carbon isotopes are considered to reflect geographic origin of the food, nitrogen isotopes inform on trophic level due to enrichment of the heavier ^15^N isotope through feeding up the food web. Since these reef-building sponges are known to solely derive food from filtration of heterotrophic bacteria we thought the δ^15^N signature might be low, and were surprised to see sponge tissues with consistently high signatures over the years. A meta-analysis of stable isotope signatures in suspension feeders shows a range of δ^15^N values depending on primary food source (lower if mainly consuming primarythe reef structure^[@CR53]^, but likely also increase bacterial supply in an otherwise food-poor habitat. A greater understanding of near-bottom ocean currents can be useful in predicting the location of sponge beds in both present and past oceans and in evaluating the contribution of sponges as food oases in deep water.

This invention relates to semiconductor devices and more particularly to an improved structure and method for producing electrically programmable read only memory devices (EPROM's) and flash EPROM's devices.
2) Description of the Prior Art
In the last decade, semiconductor memories have been the fastest growing segment of the semiconductor industry, with the large increase due to the rapid growth of digital electronics market with multiplying applications. Moreover, flash electrically programmable read only memories devices (flash EPROM's) are being produced in larger quantities. Lately, high density flash memory has been expected to replace some pan of the large computer external storage device market. One of the goals in the fabrication of flash electrically programmable read only memories (flash EPROM's) is the production of a memory circuit that

Similar television advertisements have been run in California by Democrats trying to unseat Representatives Brian P. Bilbray and Mary Bono Mack, both Republicans.

In another commercial, the committee says that Representative Tom Latham, Republican of Iowa, “voted himself taxpayer-funded health care for life,” but “wanted to gut Medicare, basically do away with it,” for older Americans.

House Majority PAC, a leading Democratic “super PAC,” has run advertisements saying that Representative Chip Cravaack, a freshman Republican from Minnesota, “voted to give members offucking nod?

Halftime: Even though I haven't exerted myself, I figure I brought some damn Gatorade, I'm going to drink it.

We begin the 2nd half on defense. I read a QB sweep and get in position. I go for his flags and he runs right by me, past another teammate and takes it to the house. Us 6, Them 6.

While setting up for the conversion, the ref calls the play back for illegal flags. Apparently, he lost a flag way back at the line. Us 6, Them 0.I think at this point we exchange series w/o anything happening.

Middle 2nd half: I am lined up on a man, but read that the QB is on the run and won't make a good throw. I release off my


1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a non-volatile semiconductor memory having a two-storied gate of a floating gate and a control gate, and methods of driving, operating, manufacturing this memory.
2. Description of the Prior Art
FIG. 26 is a diagram showing a memory cell array configuration in a non-volatile semiconductor memory such as a conventional flash memory, and illustrates a NOR flash memory. In FIG. 26, WLmxe2x88x921 to WLm+1 designate word lines; BLnxe2x88x921 to BLn+1 designate bit lines; and SL designates a source line.
First, an over-erased condition in the flash memory will be described.
In an array architecture called NOR or DINOR-type in memory cells, there is a difficulty that when there exists a cell in which a threshold voltage Vth (hereinafter, just referred to as Vth)erase in the erase sequence, it was difficult to shorten the erase time.
For example, in a NOR cell array to carry out write based on a CHE method, a block of 512 kbits is arranged by an architecture of 256 bits on the same bit line and 2048 bits on the same word line. Assuming that in the write before erase, 32 bits are selected at a time and that the write is performed, the write time at a time is xcx9c20 xcexcsec, it takes 2048/32xc3x97256xc3x9720 xcexcs=0.328 sec for the total erase time.
Accordingly, when a chip having a capacity of 1 Mbits is configured with the above block structure, it takes 0.328 secxc3x972=0.65 sec for just a write before erase operation after erase command input. Though an actual
