### Nanobeam mechanical oscillators

We consider a silicon nitride beam of length $l = \SI{70}{\micro\metre}$ that is $w = \SI{400}{\nano\metre}$ wide and $t = \SI{100}{\nano\metre}$ thick. The gate capacitor and the microtoroid both lie at an antinode of the second harmonic mode of frequency ${\ensuremath{\omega_{m}}}/2\pi \approx \SI{8.7}{\mega\hertz}$ with effective mass $m_\mathrm{eff} = \SI{3.8}{\pico\gram}$ and zero-point motion $x_\mathrm{zpf} = \SI{16}{\femto\metre}$. If one third of the beam is covered by a superconductor, the gate capacitance $C_{g} = \SI{275}{\atto\farad}$ for a beam-circuit distance $d_{q} = \SI{75}{\nano\metre}$. For a typical charging energy $E_{C} = \SI{5}{\giga\hertz}$ and gate voltage $V_{g} = \SI{10}{\volt}$, the qubit coupling $\chi/2\pi \approx \SI{5.8}{\mega\hertz}$. Note that coupling rate comparable with the mechanical frequency has recently been demonstrated [@Pirkkalainen2014].

For the optomechanical system, we      \nonumber\\
        &\quad+ {i}\frac{\kappa}{2}(a_1a_2^\dagger-a_2a_1^\dagger).\end{aligned}$$ Apart from local dynamics of the two nodes—given by the square bracket in the Hamiltonian and by the dissipation of the qubits and the mechanical oscillators—there is the unidirectional coupling of the optical cavities. This effect appears in the last term of the Hamiltonian and in the Lindblad and measurement terms ${\ensuremath{\mathcal{D}}}[a_1-a_2]\rho$, ${\ensuremath{\mathcal{H}}}[(a_1-a_2){e}^{{i}\phi}]\rho$. (The minus sign in these terms is due to the choice of the relative phase between the two cavity fields, see the discussion below.) We assume that the two qubit-oscillator-cavity systems are characterized by the same frequencies, coupling constants, and decoherence rates.

Adiabatic elimination of the mechanical and optical degrees of freedom can be done in complete analogy with the


the measurement record), the average state is a mixture of all possible measurement outcomes, $$\begin{aligned}
    \rho &= \frac{1}{4}{\ensuremath{|00\rangle}}{\ensuremath{\langle 00|}} + \frac{1}{2}{\ensuremath{|\Psi_+\rangle}}{\ensuremath{\langle \Psi_+|}} + \frac{1}{4}{\ensuremath{|11\rangle}}{\ensuremath{\langle 11|}} \nonumber\\
    &= \frac{1}{4}\left(\begin{array}{cccc} 1&0&0&0 \\ 0&1&1&0 \\ 0&1&1&0 \\ 0&0&0&1 \end{array}\right),\end{aligned}$$ which is a separable state. In simulations, on the other hand, the maximally entangled state ${\ensuremath{|\Psi_+\rangle}}$ is generated with 50 % probability and the average entanglement is equal to 0.5 ebit.

The lawsuit alleges that the patrol car was moving when Samayoa fired, a violation of SFPD policy.

The complaint, too, points out that Samayoa and the training officer did not activate their body cameras before the incident, also a violation of SFPD policy.

The video was captured only because the cameras are programmed to capture 30 seconds of video preceding activation, and Samayoa turned it on immediately after the shooting.

The community

Since the shooting occurred in December, Bayview Captain Steven Ford has been holding weekly meetings aimed at comforting the community about the incident.

is described by $F(R)$ with minimally coupled matter. Observations are typically interpreted in this Jordan frame.

We would like also to mention the so called viable $F(R)$ models, which have recently been proposed [@hu07; @staro07; @odin07; @AB; @so08; @tret], with the aim to describe the current acceleration with a suitable choice of $F(R)=R+f(R)$, but also to be compatible with local stringent gravitational tests of Einstein gravity $F(R)=R$. The main idea is the so called disappearing of cosmological constant for low curvature, and mimicking the $\Lambda$-CDM model for high curvature. Thus, the requirements are:

a\. $f(R) \to 0\,, \quad R \to 0\,$, compatibility with local tests;

b\. $f(R) \to  -2 \Lambda_0\,, \quad R \to +\infty$, description of current acceleration;

c\. Local stability of the matter.

As a illustration, we recall a recent examplethe main issue of this short review.

i. Stability of $F(R)$ model in the Jordan frame {#i.-stability-of-fr-model-in-the-jordan-frame .unnumbered}
------------------------------------------------

The starting point is the trace of the equations of motion, which is trivial in Einstein gravity $R=-\kappa^2 T$, but, for a general $F(R)$ model, reads $$3\nabla^2 f'(R)-2f(R)+Rf'(R)-R=\kappa^2 T\,.$$ The new non trivial extra degree of freedom is the scalaron: $1+f'(R)=e^{-\chi}$. Requiring $R=R_0=CST$, one has de Sitter existence condition in vacuum $$R_0+2f(R_0)-R_0f'(R_0)=0\, .$$ Perturbing around dS: $R=R_0+\delta R$, with $\delta R = - \frac{1+f'(R_0)}{f''(R_0)} \delta\chi$, one arrives at the scalaron perturbation equation $$\nabla^2 \delta\chi - M^2 \delta\chi = - \frac{\kappa^2}{6(1+f'(R_0))}T\, .$$ One may read off the scalaron effective mass $$M^2\equiv \frac{1}{3}\left(\frac{1+f'(R_0)}{f''(R_0)} - R_0\right)\, .$$ Thus, if $M^2>0$, one has stability of the dS solution and the related condition reads $$\frac{1+f'(R_0)}{R_0f''(R_0)}>1\, .$$ If


the expansion history of the Universe and probing the phenomenological relevance of the models (see for example the recent papers [@amendola; @amendola1; @dunsby; @fay], where the $F(R)$ case has been discussed in detail). Our generalisation consists in the extension of that method in order to include all possible geometrical invariants. This means that $F$ could be a generic scalar function of curvature, Ricci and Riemann tensors.

There are some theoretical (quantum effects and string-inspired) motivations in order to investigate gravitational models depending on higher-order invariants. The “string-inspired” scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity case $F(R,G)$ has been suggested in Ref. [@sasaki] as a model for gravitational dark energy, while some time ago it has been proposed as a possible solution of the initial singularity problem [@ART]. The investigation of different regimes of cosmic accelerationreads S=-d\^3xdt L(n,n,,,) =d\^3xdte\^[n+3]{}F(n,n,,) +S\_m , \[GrA\]and the Lagrange equations corresponding to the two Lagrangian variables $n(t)$ and $\al(t)$ are given by E\_n= - =2T\_[00]{}g\^[00]{}=2 , \[EnM\] E\_= - + =T\_[ab]{}g\^[ab]{}=-6p. \[EaM\]It has to be noted that since $n(t)$ is a “gauge function”, which corresponds to the choice of the evolution parameter, Eqs. (\[EnM\]) and (\[EaM\]) are not independent and in fact they satisfy the differential equation =nE\_n+E\_n, which is equivalent to the conservation of energy-momentum tensor. Furthermore, we may use the gauge freedom and fix the cosmological time by means of the condition $N(t)=1$, that is $n(t)=0$. From now on it is understood that all quantities will be evaluated in such a gauge and so the parameter $t$ corresponds to the standard cosmological time. In this way Eqs. (\[EnM\])

    The latter system has always the de Sitter solution $P_0\equiv(X=0,Y=1,Z=-4)$, where $\Om_\rho=0$ and $w_{eff}=-1$. Note however that such a solution could exist also in the presence of matter, since the existence of $P_0$ critical point only implies that the critical value for $\Om_\rho$ vanishes.

-   $\Om_\rho\neq0$, $w=-1$ — The critical points are given by

    [l]{} 2X\^2+X-(Z+)=0\
    (2X+Z+)Y+XZ=0\
    (Z+)(Z+3)+X(Z+6)=0

    w=-1. \[C-1\]For this class of solutions, the non-singular stability matrix has three eigenvalues and the point is stable if the real parts of all of them are negative.

    We see that there is at  H_0^2=(\La/6)(1+\sqrt{1+3\mu^4/4\La^2}\,.

$F=R+aR^2+bP+cQ$ — (Starobinsky-like model). Here we have to assume $3a+b+c\neq0$ otherwise the quadratic term becomes proportional to the Gauss-Bonnet invariant. For $0\leq w\leq1/3$, this model has only one critical point. In order to have a de Sitter solution, we have to introduce a cosmological constant $\La$. We have in fact

-   $P=P_0$: Minkowskian solution with $R_0=0$, which is stable if $3a+b+c>0$.

-   $P=P_\La$: de Sitter critical point with $R_0=6\La$, which is stable if $3a+b+c>0$, in agreement with [@topo].

$F=R-d^2Q_3$ — This is the simplest toy model with the cubic invariant $Q_3=R^{\al\be\ga\de}R_{\al\be\mu\nu}R^{\mu\nu}_{\ga\de}$. For this model we have the following critical points:

-   $P=P_0$: unstable de Sitter solution with $R_0=6/d$.

-   $P=P_0$: stable Minkowskian solution with $R_0=0$.

-   $P=(0.05,0.60,-3.60,0,-1.03)$: stable

Yes, but regulations will also create a base assurance that these tests mean something to individuals like you and me and are able to assess risk for disease and treatment.

It also may mean that a world like the one depicted in the 1997 film Gattaca, where all important decisions were made based on one’s genetic profile, just got a tick closer.

more people are addicted to slots than any other form of gambling.

Old fashioned slot machines let gamblers pull the handle and hope for three of a kind, but the modern slots are like high tech video games that play music and scenes from TV shows.

You can play hundreds of lines at once and instead of pulling a handle, you bet by pushing buttons, which means each bet can be completed in as little as three and a half seconds. It looks like great fun, but it can be dangerously addictive.

"Whether or not it's their intention, the gambling industry is designing machines that can addict people," MIT anthropology Professor Natasha Schull told "60 Minutes" correspondent Lesley Stahl.

Schull has studied gambling addiction for over 15 years. She has interviewed gamblers,Hospital, they may be able to claim ownership under the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). In a 2007 outbreak of avian influenza (H5N1), Indonesia claimed ownership of virus under the CBD and demanded fair access to any vaccines that resulted from sharing virus samples. The WHO issued a resolution covering influenza samples, but the resolution does not apply to MERS, a coronavirus. So far, Saudi Arabia has not yet made a similar demand. In fact, Fouchier says the Saudis have not asked for help or material, which he has given free of charge to researchers in over 100 countries.

In response to Memish\'s statement, however, WHO director-general Margaret Chan called on researchers not to let IP slow healthcare. The WHO has also asked governments in MERS-CoV host countries to

In this and other known guidance systems, it is disadvantageous that the driver must always input the target in some form. For many drivers, this requirement is especially burdensome in the case of routine trips (e.g., the daily drive to and from work). Because the routes in such cases are so well known to them, drivers often fail to enter their targets. Thus, drivers often fail to use the guidance system, even though systems that provide information on current traffic conditions can provide valuable assistance, even in the case of daily trips to the same destination, by guiding a vehicle to its target along the fastest of several possible routes, especially when traffic jams and the like occur on the route of travel.of its filing, regardless of when it attaches to the subject property").[17]

2. TCB's Arguments Regarding Superpriority and Waiver

TCB first argues that it primes the IRS because judgment lien creditors whose liens are perfected and choate before the IRS files a Notice of Federal Tax Lien have "superpriority." See 26 U.S.C. ง 6323(a). Since, as TCB acknowledges, the IRS filed its first Notice of Lien in March 1995, this lien necessarily primes any security interest of TCB, under both the "first in time" rule and Section 6323. See McDermott, 507 U.S. at 453-54, 113 S.Ct. at 1530-31.[18]
TCB further argues that the IRS has waived any priority it gained from its 1995 Notice of Lien because it issued a release of levy relating to Claiborne, dated February 8, 1996. See


means.
[16]  The Notice of Federal Tax Lien was properly filed in Harris County, Texas, which is Claiborne's residence. 26 U.S.C. ง 6323(f)(1)(A)(ii) & (f)(2)(B) (notice must be filed in the state in which the property subject to the lien is situated which, in the case of personal property, is the residence of the taxpayer).
[17]  HNB's reliance on older authorities in support of its argument that HNB's earlier filed lien primes the IRS's lien is misplaced; the Supreme Court's more recent holding in McDermott is direct authority contrary to HNB's position.
[18]  The IRS argues that TCB was not a judgment lien creditor until it filed its Restraining Order to Garnishee on February 26, 1996. United States' Reply to TCB's Response on Joint Motion to Pay IRSSee Claiborne's Final Partnership Account Statement for Year Ending June 30, 1996 (Exhibit A to Plaintiff's Motion for Leave to Tender Balance of Drawing Account into Registry of the Court [Doc. # 52]).
[24]  In support of its motion to dismiss Claiborne's crossclaim for wrongful garnishment and abuse of process, TCB argues that no wages have been garnished and points the Court to the Restraining Notice to Garnishee which TCB filed in New York court. The Court notes that the notice specifically exempts wages from the garnishment, identifying the subject property as "Partnership Account Control Number 14592 including Jerry W. Claiborne's capital account Social Security Number XXX-XX-XXXX and all other non-exempt assets, property, compensation, distributions and bonuses of Jerry W. Claiborne except wages or salary due or to


have often heard the others described.

Str. And you may have heard also, and may have been-assured by report, although you have not travelled in those regions, of nurseries of geese and cranes in the plains of Thessaly?

Y. Soc. Certainly.

Str. I asked you, because here is a new division of the management of herds, into the management of land and of water herds.

Y. Soc. There is.

Str. And do you agree that we ought to divide the collective rearing of herds into two corresponding parts, the one the rearing of water, and the other the rearing of land herds?

Y. Soc. Yes.

Str. There is surely no need to ask which of these two contains the royal art, for it is evident to everybody.

Y. Soc. Certainly.

Str. Any one can divide the herdsherds of pedestrian animals. The chief division of the latter was the art of managing pedestrian animals which are without horns; this again has a part which can only be comprehended under one term by joining together three names-shepherding pure-bred animals. The only further subdivision is the art of man herding-this has to do with bipeds, and is what we were seeking after, and have now found, being at once the royal and political.

Y. Soc. To be sure.

Str. And do you think, Socrates, that we really have done as you say?

Y. Soc. What?

Str. Do you think, I mean, that we have really fulfilled our intention?-There has been a sort of discussion, and yet the investigation seems to me not to be perfectly worked out: this is where the


enquiry fails.

Y. Soc. I do not understand.

Str. I will try to make the thought, which is at this moment present in my mind, clearer to us both.

Y. Soc. Let me hear.

Str. There were many arts of shepherding, and one of them was the political, which had the charge of one particular herd?

Y. Soc. Yes.

Str. And this the argument defined to be the art of rearing, not horses or other brutes, but the art of rearing man collectively?

Y. Soc. True.

Str. Note, however, a difference which distinguishes the king from all other shepherds.

Y. Soc. To what do you refer?

Str. I want to ask, whether any one of the other herdsmen has a rival who professes and claims to share with him in the management of the herd?

Y. Soc. What dothe god reversed their motion, and gave them that which they now have as a testimony to the right of Atreus.

Y. Soc. Yes; there is that legend also.

Str. Again, we have been often told of the reign of Cronos.

Y. Soc. Yes, very often.

Str. Did you ever hear that the men of former times were earthborn, and not begotten of one another?

Y. Soc. Yes, that is another old tradition.

Str. All these stories, and ten thousand others which are still more wonderful, have a common origin; many of them have been lost in the lapse of ages, or are repeated only in a disconnected form; but the origin of them is what no one has told, and may as well be told now; for the tale is suited to throw


into being at the beginning of this, are to us the heralds. And mark how consistent the sequel of the tale is; after the return of age to youth, follows the return of the dead, who are lying in the earth, to life; simultaneously with the reversal of the world the wheel of their generation has been turned back, and they are put together and rise and live in the opposite order, unless God has carried any of them away to some other lot. According to this tradition they of necessity sprang from the earth and have the name of earth-born, and so the above legend clings to them.

Y. Soc. Certainly that is quite consistent with what has preceded; but tell me, was the life which you saiddear friend, can hardly be set forth except through the medium of examples; every man seems to know all things in a dreamy sort of way, and then again to wake up and to know nothing.

Y. Soc. What do you mean?

Str. I fear that I have been unfortunate in raising a question about our experience of knowledge.

Y. Soc. Why so?

Str. Why, because my "example" requires the assistance of another example.

Y. Soc. Proceed; you need not fear that I shall tire.

Str. I will proceed, finding, as I do, such a ready listener in you: when children are beginning to know their letters-

Y. Soc. What are you going to say?

Str. That they distinguish the several letters well enough in very short and easy syllables, and are able to tell them


are made to learn that each letter in every combination is always the same and not another, and is always called by the same name.

Y. Soc. Certainly.

Str. Are not examples formed in this manner? We take a thing and compare it with another distinct instance of the same thing, of which we have a right conception, and out of the comparison there arises one true notion, which includes both of them.

Y. Soc. Exactly.

Str. Can we wonder, then, that the soul has the same uncertainty about the alphabet of things, and sometimes and in some cases is firmly fixed by the truth in each particular, and then, again, in other cases is altogether at sea; having somehow or other a correction of combinations; but when the elements are transferredclass, which may be called by the general term of nourishment, unless you have any better name to offer. This, however, appertains rather to the husbandman, huntsman, trainer, doctor, cook, and is not to be assigned to the Statesman's art.

Y. Soc. Certainly not.

Str. These seven classes include nearly every description of property, with the exception of tame animals. Consider;-there was the original material, which ought to have been placed first; next come instruments, vessels, vehicles, defences, playthings, nourishment; small things, which may be-included under one of these-as for example, coins, seals and stamps, are omitted, for they have not in them the character of any larger kind which includes them; but some of them may, with a little forcing, be placed among ornaments, and others may be made


the same name.

Y. Soc. True.

Str. But do you suppose that any form of government which is defined by these characteristics of the one, the few, or the many, of poverty or wealth, of voluntary or compulsory submission, of written law or the absence of law, can be a right one?

Y. Soc. Why not?

Str. Reflect; and follow me./p>

Y. Soc. In what direction?

Str. Shall we abide by what we said at first, or shall we retract our words?

Y. Soc. To what do you refer?

Str. If I am not mistaken, we said that royal power was a science?

Y. Soc. Yes.

Str. And a science of a peculiar kind, which was selected out of the rest as having a character which is at once judicial and authoritative?

Y. Soc. Yes.

Str. And there was onekings. For kings we may truly call those who possess royal science, whether they rule or not, as was shown in the previous argument.

Str. Thank you for reminding me; and the consequence is that any true form of government can only be supposed to be the government of one, two, or, at any rate, of a few.

Y. Soc. Certainly.

Str. And these, whether they rule with the will, or against the will of their subjects, with written laws or. without written laws, and whether they are poor or rich, and whatever be the nature of their rule, must be supposed, according to our present view, to rule on some scientific principle; just as the physician, whether he cures us against our will or with our will, and whatever be


that no great number of persons, whoever they may be, can attain political knowledge, or order a State wisely, but that the true government is to be found in a small body, or in an individual, and that other States are but imitations of this, as we said a little while ago, some for the better and some for the worse.

Y. Soc. What do you mean? I cannot have understood your previous remark about imitations.

Str. And yet the mere suggestion which I hastily threw out is highly important, even if we leave the question where it is, and do not seek by the discussion of it to expose the error which prevails in this matter.

Y. Soc. What do you mean?

Str. The idea which has to be grasped bybe written down on triangular tablets and columns, or enacted although unwritten to be national customs; and that in all future time vessels shall be navigated and remedies administered to the patient after this fashion.

Y. Soc. What a strange notion!

Str. Suppose further, that the pilots and physicians are appointed annually, either out of the rich, or out of the whole people, and that they are elected by lot; and that after their election they navigate vessels and heal the sick according to the written rules.

Y. Soc. Worse and worse.

Str. But hear what follows:-When the year of office has expired, the pilot or physician has to come before a court of review, in which the judges are either selected from the wealthy classes or chosen by lot out of


point.

Y. Soc. What is it?

Str. I want to know, whether any constructive art will make any, even the most trivial thing, out of bad and good materials indifferently, if this can be helped? does not all art rather reject the bad as far as possible, and accept the good and fit materials, and from these elements, whether like or unlike, gathering them all into one, work out some nature or idea?

Y. Soc. To, be sure.

Str. Then the true and natural art of statesmanship will never allow any State to be formed by a combination of good and bad men, if this can be avoided; but will begin by testing human natures in play, and after testing them, will entrust them to proper teachers who are the ministers ofsuccessive generations, is apt to grow too indolent, and at last to become utterly paralyzed and useless.

Y. Soc. That, again, is quite likely.

Str. It was of these bonds I said that there would be no difficulty in creating them, if only both classes originally held the same opinion about the honourable and good;-indeed, in this single work, the whole process of royal weaving is comprised-never to allow temperate natures to be separated from the brave, but to weave them together, like the warp and the woof, by common sentiments and honours and reputation, and by the giving of pledges to one another; and out of them forming one smooth and even web, to entrust to them the offices of State.

‘Why’ W’e Can’t Run Away
No one is completely free of temptations because the source of temptation is in ourselves. We were born in sinful desire. When one temptation passes, another is on its way. ‘We will always have temptation because we are sinners who lost our original innocence in the Garden. Many have tried to escape temptations only to find that they more grievously fall into them. We cannot win this battle by running away alone; the key to victory is true humility and patience; in them we overcome the enemy. If we merely turn away from temptation outwardly and do not strike at the root, we will make very little progress. In fact, you will find that the temptations will return more quickly and powerfully, and youall that I have shall not be used by the devil, but shall be instruments in God’s hand to glorify him alone

If Tim had the money, he would put this town in his rearview mirror. Alas, he was barely scraping by as it was.

As he was climbing back into the truck, he saw something move up the street. Shielding his eyes against the sun, he could just make out a young woman standing in the road. She had long dark hair and was wearing a dress with a gold and blue jacket over it. Those were the colors of the local high school.

Tim felt a pit in his


there.

Tim waited by the living room window, jumping at every movement. He wanted to go outside, but he wasn't sure how Tucker was going to react to coming home, so he thought it best to wait inside.

Two years of his life down the drain. College and everything that went with it, all gone. Well he wasn't going to waste his life. Tim would get him a job somewhere, get him back on his feet and then maybe they could look at college or maybe some night classes. He didn't deserve to stay in this town, not with all the prying eyes. He wasn't the only one watching from the window. Mrs. O'Brien's curtain was twitching. That old bat would take any reason to gossip.

A car pulled up andtwo blocks he walked every day to visit his mother. The gates were already locked up for the night, so Brandon climbed up the small embankment to the left of the gates. The cemetery's wooded area had a small picket fence, running along the unkempt area from the well-kept landscape. Brandon made a simple jump over the fence and he was behind the closed gates. Brandon knew the well-manicured walkways, like the back of his hand. Catching a glimpse of the moonlight glow casting it's reflecting gleam on each stone. His mother's stone stood out amongst most of the others, laid out in parallel lines. A picture of one of her modeling gigs was embedded into the stone. Her glamorous look smiled out to everyone that passed her


on the floor and 138 pacing back and forth along the far wall. The sounds coming from 138, he could tell he was in pain, but that wasn't his problem, he just had to secure him and then it was someone else's problem. The quicker he got this done, the quicker he could get onto another target, and he only had two more to go until he could get his count and leave this place behind.

"138 stand still and await commands."

138 turned and looked at him, snarled and began to make a threatening low guttural growling.

"Fuck, 138, I don't have time for this bullshit today."

Removing the control box from his pocket, he pressed the button, sending 138's body into spasm, giving it an extra few moments before hesound of clanging bells...

"Hurry up!" Mike yelled, waving the gun around as people ducked and prayed, their heads bowed, staying low and out of his way.

The Reaper maintained his presence in the fade, ever watchful, always vigilant. His soul would come. Soon. The Marked never resisted.

Impatient and cornered, Mike knew he had little time to make his fast exit and leave alive. He pulled the trigger on the gun and didn't wait to see the devastation as the bullet entered the teller's chest and blew out her back. The shotgun was brutal in its carnage. She fell to the ground, the whites of her eyes somehow foggy in the artificial light. Her soul left her body as blood pooled on the floor, spreading out fast and soaking into

The Reaper raised his head and stood, his eyes locked on his dark master. "I have already anticipated your desires, my lord. The malevolent have been unleashed."

A rumbling shook the walls as the displeasure of the Darkness, the one who ruled the Underworld, filled the cavernous chamber. "I give the orders, not you, Reaper."

The Reaper bowed his head, knowing he would have to show his obedience but secretly smiling inside. The Darkness was too slow to act. Without the malevolent joining in the fight and to alarm the Angelic armies, his plans would be for naught. Revenge was a foul taste in his mouth and he relished it, savored it, and cultivated the hatred brewing and churning inside his tarnished soul.

"As you wish. Shall Ifoolish.

The Death Dealer's laugh rang out in the narrow space above his head. His master, the Darkness, had disclosed the plans of the foolish Reaper. A new soul, a powerful soul, was soon to be theirs. One such as this had not been heard of for decades. This level of energy could sustain him and his Lord for a long time. Centuries.

He laughed again, delighted with visions of chaos and pain, dismemberment and torture, blood spilling and all manner of carnage. The shadows scurried along the walls around him like insects, up and down, left to right, their twisted and grotesque forms dripping black sludge across the cavern walls like some demonic snail. The Death Dealer lifted his head and inhaled, a sardonic grin spreading across his face.


the walls sporadically, every ten feet, providing sparse circles of yellow light before the cold empty darkness swallowed the body whole again.

He was searching for someone specific. His ears listened to the sounds of torture, of screaming, of agony; all around him the unfortunate and unlucky were being persecuted and subjected to horrors that still haunted him, hundreds of years later.

The first cell he passed consisted of three Inquisitors, watching as a man was beaten and questioned, the blood of his wounds staining their already crimson robes. The next few cells contained men hanging by either their thumbs or their wrists, left to dangle until their tormentors returned. Above, iron cages held bodies in various stages of death and decay. Their flesh was left to rot on theirand imploded upon itself.

Solan's raw celestial power thumped through his body. His torso twisted and popped, invertebrate bones rippled and collapsed. Celestial organs squirmed and withered under the onslaught. His whole body shimmered with gold, blue and purple light, internal cellular fireworks firing off in every direction.

With a final gasp and a gigantic shove, Solan forced every molecule of his body to invert and smash into one another in the center of his reduced being. A single tear slithered down his glowing face.

A rush of newly formed air surrounded the remnants of his body, the flickering lights stilled and dimmed and then he exploded. Not a small explosion, but a big bang.

Celestial atoms flew in every direction, flung far and wide by Solan's sacrifice. After all of his

"Waste of time," the innkeeper had told me the night before when I'd asked about the house. "You'd do better to head over to Innsbrook, or Gentry. No one in these parts has need of a bard, least of all the Lady Isabella."

The lady mentioned in the letter. Whatever was going on with The Manor, my mysterious acquaintance seemed to believe she was at the center of it.

I shifted my lyre as I walked, thinking I should've left it in my rooms. It was a comfort more than anything else. After twenty-four years of playing, I felt naked without it. Not to mention I wasn't tooabout your house."

"My house?" She looked genuinely confused. "But what's so special about my house?"

"You're telling me the rumors aren't true?"

She glanced sidelong at me, finally saying, "What rumors have you heard, Mr. Larae?"

"That your house isn't subject to the laws of time. That a minute spent here could see hours pass in the rest of the world, and vice versa. That if you're not careful, the house will claim you for its own, leaving you forgotten by the outside world."

She laughed. "What tales you tell, Mr. Larae."

I smiled. "Never believed that last one, myself. But is there any truth to the rest? Please don't tell me I've come all this way for naught."

"I'm sorry, but I haven't the faintest idea what you're talking about. I inherited this

"I see you've found her." I turned at the voice, finding Isabella standing behind me in the doorway. "She's the real reason you came here, isn't she?"

"What's wrong with her?" I asked. "Is she the reason the time continually shifts?"

"Imogene? No. She's not the cause."

I glanced back at the woman, my gorge rising. "You're saying this is Imogene?"

Isabella simply smiled.

The drawings, the time shifts... Had Imogene known this would happen? Had Isabella? Was it the house, or the woman who was to blame?

"Please, explain," I said, turning back to Isabella.

Fuck, Mark thought. Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck...

He was determined not to let anyone else go running off.

"P.K," he shouted. "For fuck's sake, shut that fucking door...NOW, GODDAMMIT BEFORE ANYONE ELSE GOES OUT THERE!"

Richard's body suddenly flew out of the darkness and smashed into one of the windows with a solid thump – like a slab of meat being slammed down onto a butcher's block.

His head had been smashed, pulverized, and as his body slid down the window and onto the patio outside, bits of what looked like brain and cranial tissue slid down the glass behind it, amidst a mess of blood and gore.

DISCUSSION {#s3}
==========

To our knowledge, our study is the first to compare the effects of nodal metastases, tumor size, and histologic subtype on the prognosis of patients with appendiceal neuroendocrine neoplasms.

The current guidelines are based on studies by Moertel et al \[[@R11], [@R13]\]that failed to identify any nodal metastases in carcinoid tumors smaller than 20 mm leading the proposed cut-off of 20mm for RHC. However, we found a higher percentage of regional lymph node involvement (56.7%) in WDNETs of 11--20 mm than have other studies (Moertel et al, 0%;in the presence of nodal metastases. Conversely, in patients with MHTs, nodal involvement significantly reduces survival rates, which were not improved by RHC. Future studies should evaluate the role of adjuvant chemotherapy in this subgroup.

MATERIALS AND METHODS {#s4}
=====================

Data were collected from the SEER public-use database of the National Cancer Institute (November 2014 submission), which includes data from 18 cancer registries \[[@R20]\]. The study did not require Institutional Review Board approval according to our institutional guidelines.

Histology codes {#s4_1}

Histology codes were obtained from the third edition of the International Classification of Diseases for Oncology and its supplements and were grouped according to the 2010 WHO classification of appendiceal tumors \[[@R4]\]. WDNETs included appendiceal tumors with the following SEER histology/behavior codes: 8246/3 "neuroendocrine carcinoma, not otherwise specified (NOS)" (grades 1 and


Family plays a vital role in identity formation. This is not only true in childhood but also in adolescence. Identity (gender/sexual/ethnic/religious/family) is still forming during adolescence and family holds a vital key to this. The research seems to be unanimous; a stable, secure, loving, honest and supportive family in which all members feel safe to explore their identity is necessary for the formation of a sound identity. Transracial and International adoptions are some factors that play a significant role in the identity construction of adoptees. Many tensions arise from relationships built between the adoptee(s) and their family. These include being "different" from the parent(s), developing a positive racial identity, and dealing with racial/ethnic discrimination.[130] It has been found that multicultural and transnational youth tend to identify with theirnumber of adoptions in the United States peaked in 1970.[45] It is uncertain what caused the subsequent decline. Likely contributing factors in the 1960s and 1970s include a decline in the fertility rate, associated with the introduction of the pill, the completion of legalization of artificial birth control methods, the introduction of federal funding to make family planning services available to the young and low income, and the legalization of abortion. In addition, the years of the late 1960s and early 1970s saw a dramatic change in society's view of illegitimacy and in the legal rights[46] of those born outside of wedlock. In response, family preservation efforts grew[47] so that few children born out of wedlock today are adopted. Ironically, adoption is far more visible and discussed in


and positive future outlook for schooling, employment, finances, and marriage.[121] Subsequent research found that adolescent mothers who chose to release their babies for adoption were more likely to experience feelings of sorrow and regret over their decision than those who kept their babies. However, these feelings decreased significantly from one year after birth to the end of the second year.[122]

The most recent adoption attitudes survey completed by the Evan Donaldson Institute provides further evidence of this stigma. Nearly one-third of the surveyed population believed adoptees are less-well adjusted, more prone to medical issues, and predisposed to drug and alcohol problems. Additionally, 40–45% thought adoptees were more likely to have behavior problems and trouble at school. In contrast, the same study indicated adoptive parents were viewed favorably, with nearlyshe has gone into labor." "Uh, my lady, you should've waited for me to get you." "Hey, what are you doing?"

Resultant calculation on the contents of amino acids in the diet which can generate an acid in the catabolic process, such as arginine, lysine, 1/2histidine, methionine and cystein, yielded 8039 mg/day in the alkali diet and 19458 mg/day in the acid diet. On the other hand, purine contents for diets were calculated to be 306 mg/day in the alkali diet and 533 mg/day in the acid diet. Each diet period lasted 5 days. During each 5-day period, the diets made by different recipes but using the same compositions of natural food materials (listed as an appendix) were served.

Discussion
==========

The results obtained in this study are as follows; as urine pH is increased by suppression in the generation of H^+^through metabolic degradation of food materials, uric acid excretion increases significantly. The significance of this finding is that although the purine content was less in the alkaline diet compared to the acid diet, the transportable proportion of uric acid (in conjugate base) (P~Ka~= 5.35) was larger in alkaline urine compared with acid urine.

Q:

How does this permutation generator work?

I've been given a tip the following code will work, and it does, however I am using it in a little research project and need to thoroughly understand what exactly is the principle behind it.
for i:=0 to (PNum-1) do begin
for j:=0 to (SMax-1) do begin
write(f, ((i shr j) and 1));
end;
writeln(f);
end;

Basically, it generates all PNum variations of SMax-symbol long string containing 0 and 1. My question is, what does ((i shr j) and 1) (shr being right bit shift in Pascal) do?
Thank you in advance.

A:

The expression
((i shr j) and 1)

extracts the j-th bit from the binary representation of `i´ (bits counting from zero from the right).
Example:
i = 23; j = 3;

bin[23] = 10111
bin[23 shr 3] = 10111 shr 3 =The right hemisphere: neuropsychological functions.
In the past two to three decades, clinicians and neuroscientists have been studying the functions of the right hemisphere. Neither hemisphere seems to be dominant in the absolute sense. Each appears to be specialized and is dominant for different functions. However, most functions require the cooperation of both hemispheres. When one is damaged, the other can often compensate for the damaged one. Lesions of the left hemisphere are associated with language (speech, reading, and writing) and praxic disorders, and lesions of the right hemisphere can result in visuospatial, attentional, and emotional disorders. The authors review some of the major behavior disorders associated with right hemisphere dysfunction and concentrate on three major types of disorders--visuospatial, attentional, and emotional.

Experiment 3 revealed that ^125^I-interferon β-1a binds slowly to albumin, reaching about 30 % binding after 5 h of incubation and almost 50 % after 16 h of incubation. This incubation duration was therefore retained for the preparation of the Biferonex® + HAS solution used in Trial B, as it resulted in a degree of binding close to the comparator, Rebif® (formulated with HSA). The precise molecular interaction between HSA and interferon β-1a is unknown. Taking into account its slow kinetics while adding HSA to the biosimilar probably enabled us to best mimic the reference brand and to avoid potential biases linked to a difference in the free fraction.

    Line-Intensity Mapping is an emerging technique which promises new insights into the evolution of the Universe, from star formation at low redshifts to the epoch of reionization and cosmic dawn. It measures the integrated emission of atomic and molecular spectral lines from galaxies and the intergalactic medium over a broad range of frequencies, using instruments with aperture requirements that are greatly relaxed relative to surveys for single objects. A coordinated, comprehensive, multi-line intensity-mapping experimental effort can efficiently probe over $80\%$ of the volume of the observable Universe - a feat beyond the reach of other methods.

    Line-intensity mapping will uniquely address a wide array of pressing mysteries in galaxy evolution, cosmology, and fundamental physics. Among them are the cosmic history


growth and evolution of cosmic structure. Line fluctuations trace the underlying large-scale structure of the Universe, while the frequency dependence can be used to measure the redshift distribution of the line emission along the line of sight. Traditional galaxy surveys probe discrete objects whose emission is bright enough to be imaged directly. [*LIM is advantageous as it is sensitive to all sources of emission in the line and thus enables the universal study of galaxy formation and evolution*]{}. As high angular resolution is not required, [*LIM can cover large sky areas in a limited observing time, allowing various tests of the standard cosmological model, and beyond it, across under-explored volumes of the observable Universe.*]{} In addition, relaxed angular resolution requirements are an important attribute for space-borne instruments, wheremultiple tracers of cold gas and star formation, we can infer the star-formation rate, efficiency and possible evolution, as well as ISM properties, such as metallicity, temperature, and ionization state.

A key advantage of LIM is that it can access multiple emission lines coming from different phases of the ISM and IGM. CO lines trace the cold molecular clouds where stars are forming [@Bolatto2013], while CII emission from those clouds and the surrounding photo-dissociation regions provide one of the most significant sources of cooling [@Dalgarno1972]. 21 cm, H-$\alpha$, and Ly-$\alpha$ probe hydrogen gas both in and around galaxies [@Villaescusa-Navarro2018; @Silva2017; @Pullen:2013dir]. \[OIII\], used by ALMA to great effect to measure redshifts of $z=7-9$ galaxies [@Moriwaki2018], can be used to study HII regions.

The European Court of Human Rights ruled Monday that Bosnia and Herzegovina must take “all necessary measures” to remove a Serbian Orthodox church that was built in the courtyard of a Muslim woman expelled from her village during the country’s 1992-95 war.

The court ruled that the 1998 church construction had been illegal and constituted a violation of the right to property, stipulating a three-month deadline to carry out the verdict and remove the church.

European Court judge Faris Vehabovic said that a failure to enforce the court’s decision would be a “crime” yet added that whether or not it will be enforced “is up to the Bosnian authorities to decide.”

In 2000, Fata Orlovic and 13 other family members initiated a legal battle to have the church removed after shethe NBC News report didn’t mention. It’s the email monitoring that Google allows outside developers to perform on users’ inboxes, provided they get those users’ permission. From the Journal’s story:

The internet giant continues to let hundreds of outside software developers scan the inboxes of millions of Gmail users who signed up for email-based services offering shopping price comparisons, automated travel-itinerary planners or other tools. Google does little to police those developers, who train their computers—and, in some cases, employees—to read their users’ emails, a Wall Street Journal examination has found.

Google requires those app developers to tell users in advance what type of data they’ll be collecting, and users have to agree to that before they can start using the apps. To Google’s credit, that permissions pop-up is written


Earny, Return Path, or anyone else abused their access to users’ data in damaging ways, as a shady third-party Facebook app developer did by handing Facebook users’ personal information to the political targeting firm Cambridge Analytica without their consent. That’s good news for Google, because without evidence of obvious harm, it’s unlikely that Google CEO Sundar Pichai or Alphabet CEO Larry Page will find themselves hauled before Congress, as Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg was.

Still, there are parallels between the two sets of revelations. Both Facebook and Google, in a push to turn their products into “platforms” upon which third parties could build apps, were willing to give up their control of users’ sensitive personal data in the bargain.

title: 'Clustering of fast Coronal Mass Ejections during the solar cycles 23 and 24 and implications for CME-CME interactions'
---

Introduction {#sec:intro}
============

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are a manifestation of solar variability and the main source of major space weather events. CMEs eject substantial amounts of mass and magnetic flux from the Sun to the Heliosphere and cause disturbances in the interplanetary medium . The CME initiation and impulsive acceleration occur on time scales of a few minutes to several hours with a kinetic energy that may exceed $10^{32}\ ergs$ [@2011ApJ...738..191B; @2006SSRv..123...13H; @2000ApJ...534..456V; @1996AIPC..382..426S; @1984JGR....89.2639H]. CME speeds range from $< 100 \ km/s$ to $> 2000 \ km/s$, occasionally reaching up to $3500 \ km/s$ . During their propagation, the interplanetary


and the results presented in @2011JGRA..116.4220R for the years 1999 to 2006. Additionally, we examined our code using the Max-AutoRegressive model of order one (Max-AR(1)) to obtain the extremal index $\theta$. We use the Max-AR(1) series as $[y] = max\_ar ( b, a, iter ,N)$, with the length of time series $N=2^{15}$, number of iteration $iter=1$, and the parameters $a=0.7$, $b=1.5$. Our results are in agreement with the results based on the Stoev’s code.\

De-clustering threshold time $\tau_{c}$
---------------------------------------

In addition, to derive a more detailed characterization of the cluster properties and how they change over different phases of a solar cycle, we use the de-clustering threshold time method. The main idea is to identify clusters in the time series of CME with speed $v\geq 1000 \ km/s$. The mean timethird column gives the total number of CMEs in these clusters and their percentages. The fourth column lists the mean duration of the cluster with the standard error in parenthesis. The fifth column lists the mean time between successive CMEs in each cluster with the standard deviation in parenthesis. The sixth column provides an estimate of the probabilities that a cluster of the corresponding size is recorded, which is the number of clusters of specific size divided by the total number of clusters.

\[font\]

In the following, we apply the same type of analysis separately to three sub-intervals, each of lengths 4 years, that characterize the maximum of cycles 23 and 24 and the minimum between then two cycles.

Maximum of solar cycle 23
-------------------------

To study the cluster behavior during the solar


threshold $v\geq1000 \ km/s$ to characterize extreme events. The de-clustering threshold time method confirms the results obtained from the Max Spectrum method, i.e. that fast CMEs show a tendency to occur in clusters. However, while the Max Spectrum method has the capability to detect the predominant clusters, the de-clustering threshold time method allows us to obtain more detailed information on the clustering properties, i.e. how the CMEs are distributed over clusters of different sizes and what are the typical time scales of the clustering.

-   Through the de-clustering threshold time method, we obtained an estimate of the typical time scales ($\tau_{c}$) between successive fast CMEs. For the entire period and during the maximum of solar cycle 23 the time between successive fast CMEs is $\tau_{c}\leq28 \ hrs$,within the de-clustering time.

-   The potential geo-effectivity in isolated events and clusters statistically quantified by the total hourly sum of *Dst* normalized by cluster size shows some change in the bulk of the distribution toward higher values from isolated CMEs to clusters of size 2. However, the largest values are associated with isolated events. On the other hand, the distribution of the *Dst* minima values show a distinct change (the mean values change from $-51.7 \ nT$ for isolated events, $-67.3 \ nT$ for clusters of 2 members, and $-88.7 \ nT$ for clusters $\geq3$). Also, we find that the fraction of associated large geomagnetic storms as quantified by minimum values of *Dst* $<-100\ nT$ is increasing with cluster size: it is 10% for isolated events,


occur as isolated events, may be related to different aspects:

a)  That CMEs in clusters have a higher probability to interact, and that interacting CMEs have a tendency to be more geo-effective [@2017SpWea..15...53R; @2014NatCo...5.3481L].

b)  That the occurrence of multiple CMEs along with the Sun-Earth line preconditions interplanetary space, e.g. reducing the interplanetary density along the paths of a following fast CME, which reduces the drag force exerted on it, (e.g. @2015SoPh..290..919T [@2014NatCo...5.3481L]).

c)  That the subsequent disturbance of the Earth magnetosphere within short times may lead to differently strong effects, in the form of preconditioning of the magnetosphere under repeated strong energy input by the arrival of fast CMEs. These large perturbations induced by consecutive CMEs (clusters) in the coupled magnetosphere-ionosphere system causes a higher geo-effectiveness. The   exit();

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a speech recognition method. More specifically, the present invention relates to a speech recognition method in which automatic speech recognition by a machine such as electronic computer is effected by using distance or probability between an input speech spectrum time sequence and a template speech spectrum time sequence or its statistical model.
2. Description of the Background Art
Basically, in automatic speech recognition by an electronic computer or the like, the speech is converted to a spectrum time sequence and recognized. Cepstrum is often used as a feature parameter representing the spectrum. The cepstrum is defined as an inverse Fourier transform of the logarithmic spectrum. In the following, logarithmic spectrum will be simply referred to as a spectrum.
Recently, it has beenseries groups, which contain various models categorized according to the equipment included on them. These series groups are further divided into subseries groups. Each subseries group is identified by the common elements of the vehicle identification number for each vehicle within the subseries. The models are identified by the popular name for their body style and by the manufacturer's body style number.
The NADA Guide contains the following information for the vehicles listed: average retail value, insurance information, popular name for body style, manufacturer's body style number, manufacturer's suggested retail price, weight, average loan value and average wholesale value.
In addition to publishing the NADA Guide, NADA also produced, from 1975 until 1983, magnetic computer tapes ("NADA Tapes") which contained much of the information included in the NADA Guide. None


the first element of its estoppel defense, namely, that NADA knew the facts of BDV's conduct. NADA has admitted that it sold a copy of the NADA Tape to BDV in every year from 1978 until 1983. NADA has also admitted that it believed BDV was using the NADA Tapes to assess vehicle values for Loudon County, a local governmental jurisdiction located in Virginia. NADA has asserted, however, that it did not know that BDV was providing its services to any governmental jurisdictions other than Loudon County. BDV has not introduced any evidence to contradict this assertion. NADA has stated that, if it had known that BDV was using its copy of the NADA Tape to process multiple jurisdictions, it would have stopped selling its Tapes to BDV.this yet.

I'd recommend that you try to find a way to make rotate_left a list comprehension.
This is as it'll be simpler than you have now, and removes an if.
So I'd assume it to be faster too.
To do this you invert rotate_right, in both the indexing and the range. To get:
return [array[rotate_by - i] for i in range(len(array), 0, -1)]

But other than that your code seems pretty good. I personally would merge both rotate_right and rotate_left into one function rotate.
The biggest downside is it's \$O(n)\$ not \$O(k)\$, where \$n\$ is the size of the array, and \$k\$ is how much you want to rotate by.
Which is OK in this challenge, as you mostly want \$O(1)\$and used by the public ... Of course, there could be people who abuse it, but we will improve and build up resources over time, using technology as much as we can, so that we are able to make good sense of the data received," said Mr Baey.

Posttreatment With LYRM03 Protects Rats From Acute Lung Inflammation Induced by Lipopolysaccharide via Suppressing the NF-κB/MyD88/TLR4 Axis.
3-amino-2-hydroxy-4-phenyl-valyl-isoleucine (LYRM03) has been shown to be beneficial in a rat model of acute lung injury (ALI). Nonetheless, the pharmacologic action of LYRM03 interference has not been demonstrated to occur through oxidative stress and apoptosis in a rat lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI model, and the potential pathogenic mechanism needs to be clarified. Our research intended to explore the mechanism of action using an in vivo rat LPS-induced ALI model and highlight the associated pathogenesis. Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to the following five groups: Sham; LPS (5 mg/kg); LPS + LYRM03 (5 mg/kg); LPS + LYRM03 (10 mg/kg); and LPS + LYRM03 (20 mg/kg). Pulmonary injury indicators were documented at 24 h after

the systems given in [@celisetal], tabulation hashing [@charhash], and any $\Theta(\log n/\log \log n)$-independent hash function family. The hash function families with high degrees of independence provide asymptotically perfect results for other applications e.g. concentration bounds, Bloom filters, “two choices”, etc.

Unfortunately the systems with high degrees of independence are inefficient in practice either because of their size and/or speed according to Siegel’s lower bound [@siegel]. So the research then focused on finding hash function families best fitting the needs of an application. There are systems designed to achieve the optimal size of a largest bin for balls-and-bins model that emerged in [@celisetal]. For cuckoo hashing there are known function families and modifications of the scheme which preserve the expected $O(1)$ operation time such as cuckoo hashing with stash from [@mitzenmacher-cuckoo] and [@dietzfelbinger-cuckoo] without usingballs into $n$ bins. We improve the previous bound by $\log \log n$ factor when placing $n$ balls into $n$ bins.

We use similar technique as Alon et al. however we use a different parametrization that suits the current setting. As a consequence, universal hashing with linear transformations can be implemented so that the amortized running times of the operations match the running times achieved by the balanced trees.

Notation and the setting
========================

Let $u, b \in \mathbb{N}$, $\vec{a} \in {{\mathbb{Z}_{2}^{b}}}$ and $A$ be a binary matrix of dimension $u \times b$, i.e. $A \in \{0, 1\}^{u \times b}$. By an *affine linear transformation* from ${{\mathbb{Z}_{2}^{u}}}$ to ${{\mathbb{Z}_{2}^{b}}}$ we understand a mapping $\vec x \mapsto A\vec x + \vec{a}$. By *linear transformation* from ${{\mathbb{Z}_{2}^{u}}}$ to ${{\mathbb{Z}_{2}^{b}}}$ we understand a mapping $\vec


gives a slightly better bound. The proof is similar.

\[proposition-e2-bound\] Let $u, f, b \in \mathbb{N}$ such that $u \geq f > b$. If $S \subseteq {{\mathbb{Z}_{2}^{u}}}$, $|S| = 2^b$, $f > b$ and $\mu = \frac{2^b}{2^f}$, then $
{\operatorname{\mathbf{Pr}}_{{T_0 \in_U {\mathcal{L}_{u}^{f}}, T_1 \in_U {\mathcal{LS}_{f}^{b}}}}\left[{E_2(S, T_0, T_1)}\right]} \leq \mu ^ {-\log b - \log \mu + \log \log \mu^{-1}}.
$

Observe that $\exists \vec{y} \in {{\mathbb{Z}_{2}^{b}}} \colon T_1^{-1}(\vec{y}) \subseteq T_0(S)$ is equivalent to $\exists \vec{y} \in {{\mathbb{Z}_{2}^{b}}} \colon \vec{y} \not\in T_1({{\mathbb{Z}_{2}^{f}}} \setminus T_0(S))$. Hence $E_2(S, T_0, T_1)$ is equivalent to $T_1({{\mathbb{Z}_{2}^{f}}} \setminus T_0(S)) \neq {{\mathbb{Z}_{2}^{b}}}$. Refer to \[fig-decomposition-e2\] for more details of the situation when $E_2(S, T_0, T_1)$ occurs.

Notice that \[proposition-epsilon\] may be used for affine linear transformations as well. Since the previous estimate holds for arbitrary fixed $T$ and $T_1$, it holds for the uniform choice of the two transformations. Thus $1 - \epsilon \leq {\operatorname{\mathbf{Pr}}_{{T_A}}\left[{T_A(S_A) = F_A | E_1}\right]} = {\operatorname{\mathbf{Pr}}_{{T_A, T, T_1}}\left[{T_A(S_A) = F_A | E_1}\right]}$. From previous and \[proposition-affine-model\] we get that $1 - \epsilon \leq {\operatorname{\mathbf{Pr}}_{{T_0, T_1}}\left[{E_2 | E_1}\right]}$. From the previous inequality and \[claim-dstr-factor\] it follows that ${\operatorname{\mathbf{Pr}}_{{T}}\left[{E_1}\right]} = {\operatorname{\mathbf{Pr}}_{{T_0, T_1}}\left[{E_1}\right]} \leq \frac{1}{1-\epsilon}{\operatorname{\mathbf{Pr}}_{{T_0, T_1}}\left[{E_2}\right]}$.


Q:

Formal (mathematical) definition of regular languages

I'm trying to provide a formal (mathematical) definition of regular language.
I'm defining a regular language as

Is a type of formal language that can be generated from a basic language with the application of union, concatenation and Kleene $(*)$ a finit number of times.

I'm not sure about this definition to be mathematically enough in order to define regular languages, any hint or help will be really appreciated and thank you for taking the time to read my question.

A:

Let $A$ be a finite alphabet.
The set of rational (or regular) languages on $A^*$, forms the smallest set of languages containing the languages $\{a\}$ for each letter $a \in A$, and is closed under finite union, product and star. Thus the empty language is rational (empty       "type": "Microsoft.Insights/components",

Introduction {#jcmm13254-sec-0001}
============

Total joint replacement surgery brings marked symptomatic relief with substantial functional improvement. However, prosthetic implants can also cause a variety of possible complications. While failure due to sepsis, fracture and dislocation has become relatively rare, particle‐induced osteolysis has been a major cause of aseptic loosening after total joint replacement. It is estimated that over 70% of implant failures are caused by aseptic loosening, and UHMWPE particles have been found to correlate with osteolytic lesions significantly [1](#jcmm13254-bib-0001){ref-type="ref"}. Aseptic loosening is initiated by an aseptic inflammatory response to the phagocytosis of implant wear particles, and OCs play the key role in this pathological process. Although Mac‐1 has been shown to be involved in the differentiation of OCs [2](#jcmm13254-bib-0002){ref-type="ref"}, the downstream mechanisms remain unexplored.

OCPs wereall animals were killed in a CO~2~ chamber [10](#jcmm13254-bib-0010){ref-type="ref"}. For the mice from WT group and *Itgam*‐KO group, periostea were cut‐off from the edge and carefully isolated from the calvaria using a tweezer; then, the periostea were used for Western blot. Mice calvaria from all of the three groups was used for histologic evaluation after a micro‐CT scan.

Similarly, twelve female 8‐week‐old C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into two groups of six mice. The UHMWPE particles were implanted using the same procedures as described above: Briefly, in the sham control, the mice received 100 μl of PBS spread over the area, and the particles group received 100 μl UHMWPE particle suspension. After 2 weeks, all animals were killed in a CO~2~ chamber, periostea were harvested for Western blot assays
