the hardier people are, the less they evaluate stressful conditions as threatening, and they take advantage of effective coping strategies. When people do not have the ability to control themselves emotionally, have less incentive to try and remain stable when faced with routine stresses, and since they have a low attempt and stability, they cannot easily solve their problems. This causes increases their levels of routine stresses. However, it should be noted that, in some situations, a person is not able to control his or her negative emotions, so methods and strategies for coping with emotions can be useful compared to not applying these strategies ([@A24169R29]-[@A24169R31]).

That’s fine, but he was told to not try to make a play. Which means he defied the coaching staff. Which is something McCarthy doesn’t want to tell the world, because his players aren’t supposed to defy his order.

Or, in other words, watch this. If you can handle it.

Whether the fans or the media realize it, the powers-that-be in Green Bay surely understand that Montgomery did something he wasn’t supposed to do, and that in doing so he disregarded the orders given by McCarthy.

This is where the importance of stepping back to take a look at ourselves or to take time to ourselves comes into play. Too often, we are called to devote every fiber of ourselves to the constant demand and fast-pace of the workplace that we forget to look at ourselves and meditate upon where our own well-being stands amidst the grander scheme of things. If we are going to be a part of something that is ultimately bigger than ourselves work wise, why not take a moment to care for ourselves so that we can be more productive?

Meyer associate George Costello visited Lucinda in the mid-sixties and found her living in "one of these houses where there's pictures of Jesus Christ all over. The mother would treat Russ like he was still fourteen. An old-lady version of Meyer—plump, wearing a 1940s dress." The only positive review anyone can recall Lydia giving to one of her son's raunchy movies came when she saw 1965's _Motorpsycho,_ in which Russ has a cameo as a moronic, corrupt, pro-rape cop. "His mother went to see the movie and said, 'Oh, Russ, you were such a wonderful policeman,' " said actor John Furlong. " 'Your father would've been proud of you.' "

It's no shock that Lydia tangled with nearly all of her son's women. "Russ said his mom would


female flesh was enough to send strong men reeling and begging for more."

1959: Eisenhower was president, Charlton Heston in _Ben-Hur_ was the top movie draw, and Bobby Darin's "Mack the Knife" wafted out of transistors everywhere. This was the year of the Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz, a gas-guzzling luxury car with a monster V-8 engine that cost as much as a house and sported foot-high tail fins. Suburban sprawl was spreading everywhere. Americans had money to burn.

Overt sexual content was creeping more and more into the culture. Somewhat tamed by 1959 (although Link Wray's "Rumble" managed to be banned by many radio stations, despite its being a mere instrumental), the salacious content of R&B and rock and roll had outraged powers that be everywhere. The beatniks had raised theirRM put it. Although the convoluted script contains enough characters and plot twists to fuel an opera, it's basically the story of Sidney Brenshaw (again Hal Hopper), a mean old bastard who runs his tiny town through fear, intimidation, and rape. He sides with manipulative preacher Brother Hansen (Franklin Bolger), hoping to increase his stranglehold, but in the end Sidney can't control his all-consuming rage, and an angry mob (played by Meyer and his crew) hangs him in the town square.

Visually the picture is quite spiffy, with Meyer working to refine his tightly wound cross-cut collage style (there are enough cutaways of feet in this picture to satisfy any fetishist), but the script is unexceptional, and the jazzy dialogue so central to RM's wild style hasn't quite crystallized.

Last but not least was Meyer stalwart Stuart Lancaster in a bravura performance as The Dirty Old Man, an unshaven, wheelchair-bound, female-hating lech who'd been crippled while trying to pull a woman from the path of an oncoming train. One memorable Lancaster moment occurs when The Dirty Old Man swigs some hooch to lessen the torture of the daily train whistle and, teeth grinding, lashes out at the distant locomotive: "Sound your warning . . . send your message . . . huff and puff and belch your smoke . . . and kill and maim and run off _unpunished_!"

On November 1, 1958, Keating founded Citizens for Decent Literature, a somewhat loony but powerful watchdog group (sporting four senators and seventy House members on its honorary committee) that would have Meyer reaching for the antacids more than a few times. _Hustler_ publisher Larry Flynt, who would take his battle with Keating to the Supreme Court and win, writes in his autobiography that the CDL "provided a vehicle for its staff members to pursue their own obsession with smut in a socially sanctioned way and condemn it at the same time.

Taleum inhalation aerosol, produced by EGIS Pharmaceuticals Works, was examined in an 8-week open cross-over self-controlled study in 50 patients suffering from extrinsic bronchial asthma. Intal powder capsule inhaled with the aid of a spinhaler was used as a reference drug. Changes in subjective complaints and symptoms were continuously recorded on a score scale in the patients' diary. The alterations in respiratory parameters were measured. Laboratory parameters were monitored. On the basis of the results Taleum spray was found to be effective in the prevention of bronchial asthma. It proved to be a well tolerated drug form of simple use.


This invention relates generally to blow molding machines and more particularly to an extrusion head that has an accumulation chamber therein from which thermoplastic material can be discharged intermittently.
Two significant problems presently exist in extrusion heads of the accumulator type, namely, the problem of eliminating the undesirable weld line which occurs in the head when the plastic from the extruder flows in two different paths around the mandrel and comes together to form the melt weld line. The second problem is the problem of down time during changeover of the accumulator head from one color or plastic to another. Present heads pose the continual threat of dead spaces which must be individually purged of residual plastic material before a color change can be effected.
The principal object of thisto a construction worker as special product. In FIG. 10, reference numeral 92 denotes a tile material.
However, it cannot be denied that such construction work in this industry includes makeshift factors and it is more difficult than expected to purchase the tile materials whose edges are processed to 45° or the corner piece materials 91 in a sufficient quantity in order to apply them to actual construction. Further, because it is necessary to depend on the processing of subcontractor by, for example, booking him for the processing, a large burden is induced in a serious price competition and there are unstable factors from viewpoints of due date. Thus, although a method of carrying out exterior construction by the means shown in FIG. 11 has been tried, in this

PUTRAJAYA: Former Parti Keadilan Rakyat Youth chief Ezam Mohd Nor has no intention of joining another political party for now despite invitations from his friends in Umno and PAS. He prefers to concentrate on his role as chairman of the Movement for Democracy and Anti-Corruption (Gerak) to “highlight and fight” corruption in the country. Asked if he had been invited to join other political movements following his resignation from PKR, Ezam said: “Sort of, because I have many friends in Umno and PAS. And naturally, as friends, they have invited me to be with them. But my focus now is on Gerak.” On Tuesday, Ezam announced that he had quit PKR and accused his one-time political idol Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim of dictatorial politics. His

A Mongolian witness caused a stir in court today when she revealed that murdered Mongolian national Altantuya Shaariibuu had been photographed having a meal with a Malaysian government official named Najib Razak.Burmaa Oyunchimeg (left), also known as Amy, told the Shah Alam High Court that Altantuya had shown her the photo in Hong Kong when she returned from a trip to France.It is believedshe replied: “I remember the name Najib Razak, they had the same name, ‘Razak’. I thought they were brothers. I asked her (Altantuya) if they were brothers.”This sparked off another exchange between the prosecution and Karpal before the judge dismissed Burmaa and directed the courtroom to stand down for 15 minutes.The next witness was lance corporal Rohaniza Roslan, 29, who had testified that the red Proton Wira aeroback - which was seen by Razak’s private investigator P Balasubramaniam as the car that took Altantuya away on Oct 19 last year - belonged to her.Examined by DPP Noorin Badaruddin, Rohaniza said she was off duty that night and was keeping Azilah company at the police headquarters in Bukit Aman.She and Azilah were a couple at that time.“Azilah had an

PKR leaders such secretary-general Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim and information chief Tian Chua are keeping mum but Youth chief Shamsul Iskandar has come out strongly, calling Ezam “a traitor.” “He is like one of the main characters in the Chinese classic Romance of the Three Kingdoms – very courageous and daring but at the end of the day, he betrayed the kingdom. “Ezam has behaved like a traitor to our party and struggles,” said Shamsul.

It was in the afternoon of Oct 19, 2006. I can't remember the time.While Altantuya was lodging the report, I was outside smoking.

Motown Momentum

Give me some credit.I forced myself to wait until the Detroit Tigers made a full turn through their rotation before I expressed my excitement in written form. Sure, I started this column just an hour after the Tigers topped the Rangers 7-0, just long enough to add Justin Verlander on a couple fantasy teams, but it proved impossible to wait any longer. This is the most exciting thing to happen to Tiger baseball since Jessica Alba showed up at Comerica ain February 1983 when more than 2,000 people were killed in Nellie and 13 nearby villages in Assam’s Nagaon district.

Understandably, to lessen the NRC tension, the Indian High Commissioner to Bangladesh, Harsh Vardhan Shringla, explained to national editors at that time that Bangladesh should have nothing to worry about. He said making a list of citizens in Assam was an internal matter of India and it would not affect the country’s bilateral relations with Bangladesh.

“No person will be harassed and no one will be allowed to create fear or panic,” said the Government of India in a statement, which also said the authorities would provide all necessary help to the government of Assam in this regard.

India had reassured Bangladesh, its friendly neighbour, that the NRC would not affect


Alamgir, said: “We have nothing to say much on it as it is their internal matter. But we think it’s the duty of us to say on the matter when their comment, any responsible leader’s comment creates problem in our internal politics.” The BNP, which has been out of power since 2007, claimed that there were no instances of repression of minorities in Bangladesh when it was in power, which is grossly untrue.

The Communist Party of Bangladesh said a Bill such as the CAB would communalise the region as a whole. Newspaper commentators fear that it might create a negative impact on domestic politics.

Bangladesh cannot be called a “theocratic state”, nor can it be equated with Pakistan and Afghanistan. Its predominantly Muslim population is not the same asd \varrho/dT)/\varrho =$ const. is taken into account. The dimensionless equations of motion, the heat equation for the deviation $\Theta$ of the temperature field from the static distribution and the equation of magnetic induction thus assume the form $${{\nabla}}^2 {\bf v} + {{\bf B}} \cdot \nabla {{\bf B}} + {{\bf r}} {\Theta}- {{\nabla}}\pi \nonumber  = P^{-1}(\partial_t{{\bf v}} + {{\bf v}}\cdot{{\nabla}}{{\bf v}})

The properties of convection are reflected in the averages of the kinetic energy densities of the various components of the velocity field which are defined by

\_p = ( |r ) \^2 , \_t = |r \^2 ,\
\_p = ( r ) \^2 , \_t = r \^2 ,

where the angular brackets indicate the average over the fluid shell and $\bar \Phi$ refers to the azimuthally averaged component of $\Phi$, while $\check \Phi$ is defined by $\check \Phi = \Phi - \bar \Phi$. Analogous definitions hold for the magnetic energy densities where $E, \Phi$ etc. are replaced by $M, h$ etc., In figure 3 energy densitiesthe surface $r=r_o+0.7$ (upper row) and $r=r_o+1.5$ (lower row)](fig040.eps){height="2in"}

We close with some remarks on the unusual form of the magnetic fields of Uranus and Neptune. The properties that dipole components of the magnetic fields are relatively weak in comparison with other components and that the dipoles are not aligned with the axes of rotation are not especially unusual. Magnetic fields of such character can often be found in simulations of convection driven dynamos. It seems that they are more often found when the diffusivity varies with radius. In figure 6 some typical examples are shown which seem to resemble the observed magnetic fields of the Icy Planets.

a total of 15 minutes each to express their views. The time limits were strictly adhered to.
Mr. Demonbreun was the first to speak. He asserted that over the years he had conducted
over 340 events on his premises, and that he was guilty of only a few isolated or inadvertent
violations of the conditions imposed on his special exception permits.

S.W.2d 900, 905 (Tenn. Ct. App. 1996)). The trial court concluded in this case that the BZA
had based its decision on ulterior motives, and thus had arbitrarily denied Mr. Demonbreun’s
application. In this situation, “ulterior motives” simply means the decision was based on
something other than the evidence presented as applied to governing legal principles.

vacant, and the government hopes to stuff the court with appointees who share its ideological worldview and will not rescind its anti-democratic legislation, including its latest attack on the human rights community. Neeman’s favored candidate is a settler who has a history of ruling against human rights organizations

Senior legislators from Mr Netanyahu’s party are pushing another bill that would make it nigh impossible for human rights organizations to petition the supreme court against government actions.

The judicial monkey should see no evil.

At one level, these and a host of other measures – including increasing government intimidation of the Israeli media and academia, a crackdown on whistleblowers and the recently passed boycott law, which exposes critics of the settlements to expensive court actions for damages – are designed to strengthento interfere in the affairs of both the EU and the United States. Jewish Agency staff proselytize among European and American Jews to persuade them to emigrate to Israel. Uniquely, Israel’s security agencies are given free rein at airports around the world to harass and invade the privacy of non-Jews flying to Tel Aviv. And Israel’s political proxies abroad – sophisticated lobby groups like AIPAC in the US – act as foreign agents while not registering as such.

Of course, Israel’s qualms against foreign meddling are selective. No restrictions are planned for right wing Jews from abroad, such as US casino magnate Irving Moskowitz, who have pumped enormous sums into propping up illegal Jewish settlements built on Palestinian land.

There is a faulty logic too to Israel’s argument. As human

embezzlement of public assets, but tax evasion is generally overlooked even though it represents theft of public assets and, in terms of orders of magnitude, has far greater impact on public revenues. Tax evasion involves abusive behaviour at the intersection between private activity and the public interest. It involves minorities bypassing accepted social norms, and provides one set of rules for the rich and well connected, and another set of rules for the poor and weak. More insidiously, it involves privileged elites, who use secrecy jurisdictions to undermine the will of elected parliaments. It is time that secrecy jurisdictions are recognised for what they really are: a full-on assault on the sovereignty of nation states, a direct attack on democracy, and a cancer running through the veins ofstudy

production raised the production costs just as the price of the ships they would be deployed to soared. Defense News reports that the Navy is canceling production of the LRLAP because of an $800,000-per-shot price tag—more than 10 times the original projected cost. By comparison, the nuclear-capable Tomahawk cruise missile costs approximately $1 million per shot, while the M712 Copperhead laser-guided 155-millimeter projectile and M982 Excalibur GPS-guided rounds cost less than $70,000 per shot. Traditional Navy 5-inch shells cost no more than a few hundred dollars each.

Code, as amended by BAPCPA, divides debtors who file more than one case in a one-year period into two classes: first-time repeat filers described in § 362(c)(3), and multiple repeat filers *344 described in § 362(c)(4). Each class has its own applicable safe harbor provision.[18]
However, at least one court has held that one-time repeat filers are entitled to the § 362(c)(4) safe harbor. In re Toro-Arcila, 334 B.R. 224 (Bankr.S.D.Tex.2005). I find the arguments supporting this holding unpersuasive. In re Toro-Arcila states that if § 362(c)(4)(B) applied only to multiple repeat filers, then virtually all of § 362(c)(4)(D) would be "meaningless surplusage." Id. at 227. I disagree.

HypoVereinsbank, the Munich-based bank in the process of being acquired by Italy's UniCredit, has appointed temporary successors to former executive board members Stefan Jentzsch and Christine Licci, who resigned last weekend.

HVB chief executive Dieter Rampl will replace Jentzsch as head of investment banking and Johann Berger, head of corporate banking and real estate, will take on Licci's responsibility for retail business and private banking.

Following completion of the acquisition, Rampl will become chairman of UniCredit, while Berger is considered favourite to head the combined group's real estate business.

A spokeswoman for HVB said the appointments were a temporary measure demanded by German company law, which requires that each of a bank's business divisions has a director who carries legal responsibility for its activities.

# The default for payload-bearing actions in thisare proud to be the city’s partner in achieving its long-term goals through the optimization of energy use in its facilities,” said Dale Silha, vice president of Pacific Northwest Energy and Technical Services at McKinstry.

The work for PP&R will be an Energy Savings Performance Contract (ESPC) focusing on identifying efficiency measures for approximately 15 percent of PP&R’s facilities. These facilities will include community centers, pools, playing fields, picnic fields, golf courses and a raceway. Additional project opportunities may be considered as performance is evaluated for the pilot project.

OKLAHOMA SELF-REPORTS POTENTIAL NCAA VIOLATION

Oklahoma self-reported a potential NCAA violation, a crime so heinous that you wonder how these people can live with themselves. It seems that three football players ate too much pasta at a banquet back on May 10, 2013. To have their eligibility reinstated, the three had to donate $3.83 each to charities of their choice. Now the NCAA issued a statement that piling on the pasta did not break any NCAA rules but Oklahoma was definitely right to self-report. The NCAA rulebook is so expansive and so vague that even something as trivial as a player eating too much at a banquet could indeed be a violation of the rules. It really is time


of vascular disease have been important in elucidating mechanisms of macrophage activation and their role in the progression of the atherothrombotic lesions in CAD ([@B9], [@B10]). It is known that majority of the release of matrix metalloproteinases, MMPs, in human atherosclerotic plaques may derive from macrophages and foam cells, and to a lesser extent from smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and endothelial cells (ECs) ([@B11]). Excessive activation of proteases in the lesion lead to increased degradation of fibrillar collagen. This determines plaque integrity, leading to friable and unstable lesions. This may also lead to adverse remodeling prompting rupture and embolism of plaque debris, often seen in plaques ([@B12], [@B13]). Our preclinical studies used genetically-altered mouse strains to demonstrate that MMP-collagenases, major macrophage products, indeed promote the paucity of plaquecollagen ([@B14], [@B15]). In vein grafts, MMP-2 and MMP-9 may play important roles in degrading the basement membrane which leads to enhanced infiltration of pro-inflammatory monocyte and macrophage populations ([@B16], [@B17]). These unstable plaque features are also most prominent among CAD patients with elevated low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels ([@B18]), elevated lipoprotein (a) \[Lp(a)\] ([@B19]) and other metabolic derangements, reiterating a close interplay between inflammation and dysregulation of lipid handling (and other metabolic syndromes). LDL modifications, LDL cholesterol efflux and reverse cholesterol efflux all contribute to how cholesterol crystals instigate initial stages of atherosclerosis.

The process begins with recruiting monocytes from the circulating blood, followed by several processes including their differentiation into macrophages, foam cell formation and activation of the NOD-like receptor-pyrin domain (PYD)- containing-3 (NLRP3) inflammasome complex.

because his estranged father, Woody Allen, was once in business with Weinstein.

He and his producer were told at least a dozen times to pause or stop reporting, he wrote.

Eventually, the reporting team said they kept working on the story despite a lack of enthusiasm from above, with McHugh quickly switching a side screen on his computer to hide what he was doing when a supervisor was near.

NBC said Farrow mischaracterized conversations; that Oppenheim wondered not about the story’s importance but about the news value of one element that had been reported on before — an audio tape from a woman fending off Weinstein. NBC wasn’t satisfied coming in second but had noted if one victim came forward elsewhere it might open a floodgate of others who followed.

Regarding Boles's thwarted attempts to purchase memory disks, we hold that the evidence submitted by plaintiff does not amount to probative evidence that the defendants retaliated against him by denying him access to additional data cards.  Nothing in the record shows that Weinberg knew that inmates were purchasing diskettes, which were not approved of purchases, until plaintiff complained to Weinberg about the practice of limiting inmates to one diskette.  Further, the affidavits of the other inmates do not refer to any purchases after March 9, 1992, the date Weinberg responded to


prisoners taking religious material through the gate to Gus Harrison.  This claim is also meritless.  The record reflects that the restrictions were applied equally to all religious groups and applied only to property that is used by the religious groups in a chapel setting, such as banners, crosses, serving utensils, and robes.  We think this policy is nondiscriminatory and supports a legitimate, nondiscriminatory penological objective.   See Cruz v. Beto, 405 U.S. 319, 322 (1972);   Turner v. Safley, 482 U.S. 78, 89 (1987).  Accordingly, plaintiff has failed to present evidence of religious discrimination in violation of the First Amendment.

the job “requirements.”

If you can proveto companies that you can solve their problems, you instantly decommoditize yourself, and what’s on paper doesn’t matter as much.

You can “shortcut” your way to the job of your dreams.

For example, if you’re applying for a sales/marketing role, a good pre-interview project could be selling some of the company’s products and writing a document about it.

If you’re applying for a design related role, you can mockup some new designs for the company and tell them why you made those decisions.

Or it could be as easy as pitching a few suggestions about how you could help, like Nina did.

A few years ago, I applied for a product design position at Quora. Instead of just submitting my resume and portfolio, I ran a usability testin pursuit of shortcuts, people make mistakes that cost them dearly. Or they wait for the perfect “moment” to fall out of the sky to actually do what they want to do — staying stagnant for years.

Eventually, people realize that the long way was the shortcut the whole time. And that the long way is where the fulfillment actually is.

“To simply wait and be bored has become a novel experience in modern life, but from the perspective of concentration training, it’s incredibly valuable.” — Cal Newport

suck. You’ll go through points where you don’t feel like working.

It sucks having writer’s block and still having to write.

It sucks trying to debug code for hours and you still can’t figure out what’s wrong.

That’s okay. Working hard is supposed to get boring sometimes. In fact, it’s impossible to focus on one thing for a long period of time without feeling bored at some point.

Once you get really good at what you do, you’ll see the impact you’re having. You’ll see the value you’re actually creating. You’ll feel that deep sense of accomplishment that comes after doing something that was hard, but worth it.

And that will become your passion.

    A general formulation of the problem of detection for a pair of two cones is presented. The special case is the detection of entangled states by entanglement witnesses. Having defined what means “to detect”, one can identify the subset of elements, which detect optimally. I will present the properties of this set for a general pair of cones.

    In particular, I prove the generalization of the theorem of Lewenstein, Krauss, Cirac, Horodecki. The entanglement witness $W$ is optimall iff the set of product wectors $\{ \phi \otimes \psi: \langle \phi \otimes \psi | W | \phi \otimes \psi \rangle = 0\}$ spans the whole Hilbert space of a system.

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

In the set of mixed states of a bipartite quantum system one can define the subset of separable states [@Wern]. The state $\rho$ is called separable, when there exists a decomposition $\rho=\sum_i p_i \rho_i^{(1)} \otimes \rho_i^{(2)}$. In such states of a system, its subsystems can be correlated only clasically.

There is no general method to determine, whether a given state is separable or not. One of the most important tools are entanglement witnesses [@sep3H], [@Terh]. A hermitian observable is called entanglement witness, when its mean value in any separable state is positive, but the observable is not semi-positive.

For an entanglement witness $W$ we can define the set of entangled states, which


a cone differing by a positive scalar is called a *ray* of the cone. Any ray can be written as $\{ k \cdot x: \ k \in \mathbb{R}_+ \}$, and then we say, that it is generated by an element $x$. A ray is called *extremal*, when a point of the ray cannot be decomposed as a convex combination of points out of the ray.

The set of unnormalized quantum states (positive matrices) of $d$-level system is a proper cone in the real vector space of hermitian matrices $\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{C}^d)$. It’s extreme rays are generated by projectors of rank one. This cone will be denoted by $\mathcal{B}_+(\mathbb{C}^d)$ or simply by $\mathcal{B}_+$.

A matrix $\rho \in \mathcal{B}_+(\mathbb{C}^{d_1} \otimes \mathbb{C}^{d_2})$ is called unnormalized separable state of two subsystems of dimensions $d_1$ and $d_2$,sides of such derived inequality by $\rho(w_1)$ one gets the inequality (\[dow\_opt\_B\]) for $\rho(w_2)>0$.

We have shown in this way, that the inequality (\[dow\_opt\_B\]) is fulfilled independly on the sign of its left-hand side. $\square$

Choosing $\mathcal{W}_1$ as $L$ and $\mathcal{B}_+$ as $K$, one gets Theorem 1.

Choosing $\mathcal{W}_1$ as $L$ and $\mathcal{W}_D$ as $K$, one gets Theorem 2.

Having proven the theorem, on has immediately the following:

The element $w \in L$ is optimal with respect to $K$ iff $w-k \not \in L$ for any $k \in K$.

Geometrical properties of optimality
------------------------------------

If an element $w \in \mathrm{opt}(L|K)$, then $F_L(w) \subset \mathrm{opt}(L|K)$.

**Proof:** Suppose, that $y \in F_L(w)$, but $y$ is not optimal. We will see, that then $w$ cannot be optimal. $$y \in F_L(w) \ \stackrel{def}{\Leftrightarrow} \ \exists \alpha > 0, \exists l_1 \in


L: \ w - \alpha y = l_1,$$ but $y$ is not optimal, so $\exists k \in K \ k \ne 0 \ \exists l_2 \in L: y = l_2+k$. Then $w = l_1 + \alpha l_2 + \alpha k$ so $w$ is not optimal. $\square$

$F \subset \mathrm{opt}(L|K) \ \Leftrightarrow \ F \cap K = \{ 0 \}$ \[geomchar\]

**Proof:** ”$\Rightarrow$” A non-zero element of $K$ detects no elements in $K^* \setminus L^*$, so it cannot be optimal (any other set contains empty set - any other witness detects better) but $F \subset \mathrm{opt}(L|K)$ only if all elements of $F$ are optimal, so when $F \cap K \ne \{ 0 \}$, $F \not \subset \mathrm{opt}(L|K)$.

”$\Leftarrow$” Suppose, that $F \not \subset \mathrm{opt}(L|K)$. It means, that there exists an element $xtheory was born in very fruitfull discussion with Jarek Korbicz and Darek Chruściński.

Samples were grouped by color and shape in terms of diet group they belong to; alginate-containing diet (ALG) red (circle), control diet (CON) blue (square), and resistant starch-containing diet (RS) orange (triangle). Labels contain name of diet type (CON, ALG, RS), pig number for the specific diet with numbers between 1 and 3, and time-point numbers between 1 and 7 in the order (starting from T1 as first time-point). **(B)** The statistical significances of differences in unweighted UniFrac distances between diets. Significance degree (calculated using Student's *t*-test with 1,000 Monte Carlo simulations) is represented as no significance (*P* \> 0.05) with NS; *P* \< 0.05 with one star (\*); *P* \< 0.005 with two stars (\*\*).

Overall, the microbiomes of the individual pigs were dominated by the phylaMany different OTUs that were affiliated to various families co-occurred or correlated significantly (*P* \< 0.001) with PCWCs in different diet pigs. Although the relative levels of PCWCs did not show any difference between diets (Figure [1](#Fig1){ref-type="fig"}), the number of the OTUs varied in the CON, ALG, and RS networks (Figure [7](#Fig7){ref-type="fig"} and Additional file [9](#MOESM9){ref-type="media"}: Figure S7). OTUs affiliated to the Ruminococcaceae, Lachnospiraceae, and Lactobacillaceae families were the most abundant taxa that co-occurred/correlated with the PCWCs in all diets.Figure 7Correlation networks of OTUs and PCWCs in each diet.

Each PCR reaction consisted of 25 μl iProof High-Fidelity Master Mix (BioRad, Hercules, CA, USA), 0.2 mM forward primer, 0.2 mM reverse primer, 400 ng template DNA, and sterile water to a total volume of 50 uL. The following PCR program was used: denaturation at 98°C for 30 s, 30 cycles of 10 s at 98°C, 30 s at 58°C, and 40 s at 72°C and a final extension at 72°C for 7 min. PCR product concentrations were measured by Qubit® fluorometer using Qubit® dsDNA BR Assay Kit (Invitrogen, Eugene, OR, USA) and checked by gel electrophoresis (1% agarose gel). All PCR products were pooled into one tube in equal amounts and run on a 1% agarose gel. The band containingeach OTU and aligned against the Greengenes core set database \[[@CR58]\] (May 2013 version) by PyNAST \[[@CR59]\] with a minimum sequence length of 150 and a minimum identity of 75%. The Ribosomal Database Project (RDP) classifier program \[[@CR60]\] was used to assign taxonomy to the aligned sequences with a confidence of 0.8. The alignment was filtered prior to generating a phylogenetic tree using a lanemask to remove highly variable regions and positions that were all gaps. A phylogenetic tree was built using filtered, aligned sequences in FastTree \[[@CR61]\] which was subsequently used to generate an unweighted UniFrac distance metric \[[@CR62]\]. This metric included the calculated distances between samples based on OTU composition of each sample and visualized by principle coordinate analysis (PCoA).

Clinton described the reception as a "historic and overdue occasion," a precedent for Muslim religious celebrations at the White House, the Associated Press reported then. (It's unclear if she knew about the Jefferson dinner.)

"A greater understanding of the tenets of Islam in our national consciousness will help us build strength and resilience as a nation," Clinton told guests, according to the Associated Press. "The values that lie at the heart of Ramadan - faith, family, community and responsibility to the less fortunate - resonate with all the peoples of this earth."

The tradition continued under President George W. Bush, who hosted an iftar dinner every yearof his two terms in office - including shortly after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, when anger toward Muslim Americans was spiking. At the 2001 dinner, in mid-November, Bush emphasized that America was fighting against terrorism, not Islam, according to The Washington Post's coverage then:

"All the world continues to benefit from this faith and its achievements," Bush said. "Ramadan and the upcoming holiday season are a good time for people of different faiths to learn more about each other. And the more we learn, the more we find that many commitments are broadly shared."

After a White House Rose Garden ceremony, Bush had said his message for the dinner would be, "We're a nation of many faiths." Asked if the sentiment was symbolic, he immediately replied, "No -

Description

This image is part of the Venus space weather report issued 5 June 2014.

During May-August 2014, ground controllers flying ESA's Venus Express will receive daily reports on solar activity issued by experts at ESA’s Space Weather Coordination Centre (SSCC), at the Space Pole in Belgium. The weather updates will deliver the best information from a variety of sources – including ESA’s Proba-2 and solar-orbiting ESA and NASA spacecraft – to the control team as rapidly as possible.transfer coating technology uses water-based instead of solvent-based products.” The process involves the coating of a negative surface (release paper or mold) with several layers, which are then joined with the leather substrate by means of a thermal press. After removing the substrate from the mold the desired surface pattern becomes visible.

Superior quality

Coating is an important step in the leather production process, in which a special finish is applied to the fragile surface of the crust to protect it against external influences and to apply decorative finishes.

The exceptionally good physical characteristics of leathers that have been coated using the Aquacast system mean they can be used for numerous purposes – even under the strict requirements of the automotive sector.

The superior surface adhesion, the flexing values and the exceptional

Logistics companies also need to decide about the mode of advertising their business. They must decide if they want to take a similar approach in conveying their message across the audience as that adopted by their competitors.

Market oriented logistics firms generally identify their customers and ensure that the product is easily delivered to the customers without any difficulty. Their role includes taking orders from customers and ensuring on-time delivery of goods.

Logistics firms need to differentiate their products and services from those of other firms. It is important for the firms to illustrate how well their services can help customers.

Transportation services also need to be well defined. Logistics firms must ensure that they have
