offers a number of potential advantages over the parenteral vaccination, including reduced risk of reactogenicity/toxicity and of transmission of infectious agents (for example through contaminated needles carrying human immune-deficiency and hepatitis B viruses), as well as enhanced patient compliance due to ease of administration and minor invasiveness. The mucosal route also allows the induction of both mucosal and systemic immune responses, a feature that other routes do not exhibit.

The two main mechanisms of immune protection at mucosal sites are the production of secretory IgA (SIgA) and the induction of CTL. SIgA is the main immune-specific element involved in mucosal protection. Nearly 80% of all immunocytes are in the mucosa and 70% of them are CD8^+^ T cells. However, our understanding of mucosal immunity and of how to developEvolution of Drosophila repetitive-dispersed DNA.
We have examined the phylogenetic distribution of a spectrum of Drosophila repetitive-dispersed DNAs ranging from structurally complex transposable elements to scrambled middle repetitive sequences. Our data suggest that unlike typical "genes" these DNAs are unstable components of the drosophilid genome. The unusual behavior of these repetitive-dispersed DNAs raises the possibility that this type of sequence may have an important role in the evolution of the family Drosophilidae.


newspaper called The Daily Punctilio after graduation. Snicket was an obituary spell-checker and theater critic.

Lemony Snicket had an ill-fated love affair with the actress Beatrice Baudelaire. Lemony and Beatrice were at one point engaged to be married, but Beatrice broke off the engagement for unclear reasons and returned her ring to Lemony at some point later, along with a two-hundred-page book explaining why the two could not be wed. It is revealed that Lemony Snicket was believed to be dead by the Baudelaire parents, as The End states that, following with the tradition of naming children after someone who has died, Violet was to be named Lemony if she was a boy. Beatrice most probably discovered the truth sometime after marrying Bertrand Baudelaire, as she would presumably have1. Field of the Invention

Recently, with the development of photo-electronic appliances such as photo-video disc and photo-communication system, the development of an optical deflector which can freely deflect the course of light has been an urgent subject, and optical deflectors which makes use of various effects have been proposed.
Optical deflectors heretofore proposed make use of an electric field (electro-optical effect), magnetic field (magnetic optical effect) or surface accoustic wave (acoustic optical effect). For example, in the optical deflector making use of the electro-optical effect, a thin film waveguide is formed on the substrate (such as LiNbO.sub.3) and an electric field is applied to the


thin film waveguide. Then, distribution of refractive index of the thin film waveguide varies with the applied electric field to deflect the projected lightbeam.
However, since in the optical deflector heretofore proposed, the deflection angle depends upon the polarized surface of an incident light beam, it is difficult to obtain a predetermined deflection angle unless means for arranging in advance the polarized surface of the incident light beam is provided.
In addition, if the film thickness of the optical waveguide is made greater, the effect is different in a direction of depth, and therefore, it is difficult to form a thick film waveguide.~ Out of My Tree

A Week in the Sun

I live in Central New York, which parallels the Pacific Northwest for gray skies and precipitation; we just get ours as snow rather than rain. For about 6 months out of the year, the skies are oppressive, with just 70 hours of sunshine on average in December. That’s about 2.5 hours a day, but sometimes we don’t see the sun for more than a week at a time.

So spending a week in the sun during January is a great way to recharge myself enough to power through the rest of the winter. Last year I enjoyed wintery sunshine in northern New Mexico, but this year I soaked up my rays in


not get work one day, they cannot feed their children. That is the real situation of the majority of the people in that parish. Most of them are landless and stay in small rented houses.

But the pastor wanted to stay in a beautiful parsonage among them. The estimate of that proposed parsonage was around 15,000,000 (fifteen hundred thousand Indian rupees). I was instructed by the diocese to build the parsonage by collecting money from those poor people. That was the main project assigned by the diocese.

It was very difficult for me to ask the poor people for money to build a luxurious parsonage while the majority of the parishioners live in huts. Six months passed without doing anything on the project. I was warned several times by theRobot Web Tools Launched

emitting device can be implemented by a combination of a semiconductor light emitting element for emitting short wavelength light and phosphors for converting the wavelength of the emission. That is, several kinds of phosphors for emitting light at different wavelengths can be mixed to obtain light emission with a predetermined spectrum.
For example, a desired emission color can be achieved by appropriately selecting a compounding ratio of three kinds of phosphors that absorb ultraviolet radiation and convert the wavelength to blue, green, and red light, respectively (e.g., Japanese Laid-Open Patent Application 2003-324215). For achieving white light emission, there exists an optimal compounding ratio of phosphors corresponding thereto. Alternatively, white light can also be achieved by irradiating blue and yellow light emitting phosphors with ultraviolet radiation and mixing the emittedof $e^+ e^-$ annihilation into hadrons at low energy provides unique information about interactions of light quarks.

In particular, $e^+ e^- \to K^0_{S}K^0_{L}$ is one of the processes with a rather large cross section in the center-of-mass energy range from 1 to 2 GeV. A precise measurement of this cross section, dominated by the contribution of the $\phi(1020)$ and $\phi(1680)$ resonances, is required to improve our knowledge of the hadronic contributions to (g-2)$_\mu$ and $\alpha$(M$^2_Z$).

data-MC difference in the detection efficiency. The data-MC difference in the charged pion detection by DC is studied using the process $e^+e^- \to \phi \to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$. Three-pion events can be fully reconstructed from one detected charged track and two detected photons from the $\pi^0$ decay, and a probability to detect another charged track can be determined. For the polar angle requirement 1 $< \theta_{\pi^{+},\pi^{-}} < \pi$ - 1 radians, the average detection inefficiency is about 1% per track for high momentum, and decreases with pion momentum, as shown in Fig. \[piefficien\]. The rise of efficiency vs momentum is explained by the decreasing number of pions that decayed or interacted in DC. Good data-MC agreement is observed for charged pion detection, so no efficiency correction is introduced and the uncertaintyCollective painted a classic and gorgeous mural featuring gay, lesbian and transgender latin@s on Galería de la Raza’s wall in San Francisco, only to have it vandalized several times.

Crowdfunding a New World Award

Fed up with the dithering of our politicians while regular citizens suffered without recompense, Thom Feeny, a London shoe shop worker, calculated that a 3 euro donation from every European was all it would take to solve the Greek debt crisis and get folks back on their feet. With this back-of-the-envelope calculation, he launched an IndieGoGo “Greek Bailout Fund” Campaign


to do just that. Although it did not reach its 1.6 billion euro target, it did mobilize more than 100,000 ordinary people from 182 countries to pledge 2 million euros — an impressive and heartwarming people-to-people response.

The Marlins’ signing of Christian Yelich to a deal that guarantees him just under $50MM for seven years marked the second time in the past several months that the team has awarded a young outfielder a big extension. The first, of course, was Giancarlo Stanton’s enormous $325MM contract. Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald spoke with Yelich and agent Joe Longo to see how the deal went down, and evidently the first contract had much to do with the second.

The Marlins initially spoke to Longo about a Yelich extension before signing Stanton, Spencer reports, and Stanton’s deal served as a catalyst for Yelich’s. “(Yelich) tells me it’s different now,” Longo says. “I think the Stanton signing kind of set the tone for that. It certainly set the tonethe country’s top insurance regulator.

DEHP alters the expression of adipocyte markers {#Sec9}

The adipocyte markers PPARa and PPARg (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors) are crucial transcription factors in adipogenic differentiation and adipocyte function (reviewed by Christodoulides


of human pre-adipocytes from the subcutaneous adipose tissue fraction. They treated differentiated adipocytes on day 11 with the relatively high concentration of 100 µM MEHP, for 24 and 48 hours, and performed a combined transcriptomic - H NMR metabonomic analysis. The MEHP-treatment led to an activation of the PPAR signaling pathway and other processes involved in lipid metabolism^[@CR44]^. Although all together excellent studies, the multitude of differences in e.g. cell culture models, culture protocols and study design (among others: primary adipocytes versus SW 872 liposarcoma cells versus SGBS, FCS versus no serum in the media, MEHP- versus DEHP-exposure during different stages of adipogenesis, different duration of exposure) exacerbates a discussion of data among studies. To partly circumvent this fact, the current study design - DEHP-exposure during the induction phase (d0-d4)Red O was prepared with 300 mg of Oil Red O powder added to 100 ml of 99% isopropanol. The working solution consisted of 3 parts of Oil Red O tock solution and 2 parts deionized water. It had to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes and was stable for no longer than 2 hours. Afterwards the working solution was filtered completely through a filter funnel. For the Oil Red O staining, the formalin was removed from the cells followed by a washing step with sterile water. After removal of the water, the cells were incubated with 2 ml of 60% isopropanol for 5 min. For the Oil Red O staining the isopropanol was removed and 2 ml of the working solution were added to the adipocytes for 5 min. The Oil Red O was

Particularly vulnerable are infants, small children and pregnant women.

Possible Sources:

According to the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, part of the U.S. Public Health Service, the major exposure of lead to the general population in food is through fruits and grains.

Lead in the food chain comes mostly from direct deposit from the air to plants and from livestock eating soil laced with lead as they eat the plants. The bans on leaded gasoline and paint have reduced exposure. Imported foods, however, may still contain significant levels of lead (chocolate, coffee beans, etc.)

2. Description of the Related Art
Hitherto, a technique of shielding dust from optical apparatuses has been proposed. The technique consists in vibrating a protective glass plate (glass dust shield) to remove dust from the glass dust shield. An example of this technique is disclosed in, for example, Jpn. Pat. Appln. KOKAI Publication No. 2002-204379. In the example, a piezoelectric element is used as means for vibrating the glass dust shield. The piezoelectric element expands and contracts in response to the voltage applied on it. It vibrates the glass dust shield attached to it, at a predetermined frequency.

As part of the follow-up study, selected anecdotal self-reported outcomes by learners were specified according to the identified gap in practice, the strategy or proposed practice change to address the gap, and the plan for monitoring the treatment/process gap in the individual's practice. A summary of the identified practice gaps is shown inlow at 32%, limiting the ability to effectively measure learning and adapt future educational initiatives.

CONCLUSIONS
===========

Overall, the SMARTIE program was executed successfully, with self-reported implementation of learned concepts in the oncology clinical setting, consistent with Level 5 of Moore's educational model. SMARTIE participants agree that the information learned in the required sessions was beneficial in helping them treat their oncology patients. Moreover, results from the immediate and follow-up portions of the SMARTIE program showed that participants gained crucial knowledge in relevant areas of oncology (e.g., immunotherapy) and implemented that knowledge in their clinical practice settings.

With respect to future recommendations, data gathered thus far will be further analyzed by the SMARTIE planning committee and considered in the development of future educational activities.

The Jerusalem Post’s Khaled Abu Toameh has published a really shocking piece today about Palestinian — both Fatah and Hamas — understanding of Obama administration policy.

If Palestinian interpretations of US policy — in the case of Hamas, gleaned from Egyptian intermediaries, and for Fatah, directly from envoy George Mitchell — are close to correct, then the Obama administration has moved even further from Israel and closer to the Arabs than we had thought.

The colocalization of LC3 (red) and LAMP-2 (blue) was evaluated by confocal microscopy using an anti-LC3 antibody (Novus Biologics) and an anti-LAMP-2 antibody (BioLegend). Colocalization was quantified by calculating the number of pixels with both red and blue signals above a predefined brightness threshold (grey scale \>30, range 0--255) and with a red to blue ratio within a predefined range (0.5--2).

The Roommates Party (original title: Le Grand Partage) is a 2015 French comedy film directed by Alexandra Leclère.

Plot
Because winter is shaping up worse than ever, the government requisitions emergency accommodation, forcing many French citizens with housing to welcome into their homes the working poor, homeless, without access to housing despite being on a payroll. A wind of panic sets in everywhere in France and especially in the 86 rue du Cherche Midi, a stately building in one of the most exclusive areas of the capital.

Compound 6-chloro-3-[2-(1-ethyl-propylamino)-3,4-dioxo-cyclobut-1-enylamino]-2-hydroxy-N-methoxy-N-methyl-benzenesulfonamide of formula I
is a weakly acidic compound and is practically insoluble in aqueous solution at pH 1.0-7.0 as a free acid (<0.005 mg/ml).
Accordingly, there is a need to provide novel forms of 6-chloro-3-[2-(1-ethyl-propylamino)-3,4-dioxo-cyclobut-1-enylamino]-2-hydroxy-N-methoxy-N-methyl-benzenesulfonamide which show at least some superior characteristics over the free acid form. There is also a need for formulations which provide effective bioavailability of 6-chloro-3-[2-(1-ethyl-propylamino)-3,4-dioxo-cyclobut-1-enylamino]-2-hydroxy-N-methoxy-N-methyl-benzenesulfonamide in plasma.
The present invention provides such a novel salt form of 6-chloro-3-[2-(1-ethyl-propylamino)-3,4-dioxo-cyclobut-1-enylamino]-2-hydroxy-N-methoxy-N-methyl-benzenesulfonamide and formulation of same which solve the above problems or at least provide a useful alternative to the known salts and formulations of this compound.Q:

Detailed documentation about mapping a web templete inside Orchard CMS

I found a web template on the net link and I want to allow end-users to edit the website using CMS. I found Orchad CMS, which is based on ASP.Net MVC. But the problem I'm facing is that I didn't find the full documentation on how I can map a web template similar to the one I provide to be managed inside a CMS such as Orchard so that end-users (non-technical users) can add new images, change the home page message, add new projects, etc.

The only elements of a feather preserved in most fossils are the structures that originally contained pigment, known as melanosomes, while the keratin that forms the structure of the feather decays=. By identifying the types of melanosomes, you can work out the possible original colour of the feathers. Previous work on the melanosomes of Sinosauropteryx suggested the dark areas of the fossil were a rusty brown or ginger colour when the animal was alive. In other cases, scientists have shown that some avian (bird ancestor) dinosaurs had mottled and


at the time.

We can also make some important judgements based on Sinosauropteryx‘s countershading. This is one of the most common colour patterns seen in living animals and helps them to hide by both blending into the background and by making the body look less 3D. The animal’s lighter underside counter-balances the shadows that its body casts across it.

Importantly, different environments have different light conditions – so how the pigment gradient should appear varies with habitat. Animals living in open habitats (such as savannahs) often display a sharp contrast between their dark and light patches high on the body, while those living in closed habitats (think forests) generally have a lower and more gradual colour gradient.

Plestiodon anthracinus

Plestiodon anthracinus, the coal skink, is a species of lizard which is endemic to North America.

Description
It grows to  in total length with a maximum snout to vent length (SVL) of . It is a four-lined skink whose light stripes extend onto the tail. The broad dark lateral stripe is 4-4.5 scales wide and there are no light lines on top of the head. The dorsolateral light stripe is on the edges of the 3rd and 4th scale rows, counting from midline of back. One postmental scale is present. The sides of the head of the male are reddish during spring breeding season, at least in some parts of the range.

Taxonomy
Two subspecies of the coal skink are recognized, including the nominotypical subspecies:

Northern coal skink - Plestiodon anthracinusanthracinus Baird, 1850
Southern coal skink - Plestiodon anthracinus pluvialis (Cope, 1880)

The (northern) coal skink was first described by Baird in 1850; the southern subspecies P. a. pluvialis was identified by Cope in 1880.

The southern coal skink as a subspecies has posterior supralabials with light centers and dark edges, producing a spotted appearance. There are 26 or more rows of scales around the middle of the body.

Reproduction
The coal skink mates in spring or early summer, laying a clutch of 8 or 9 eggs. The young hatch after four to five weeks and are about  long. The hatchlings have a blue tail; those of the northern coal skink are striped like the adults, but young southern coal skinks have black bodies with at the utmost faint traces of stripes.

There are a plurality of types of syringes having different diameters. For mounting a syringe having a smaller diameter than a standard diameter of a syringe mounted on the injection head, the syringe having the smaller diameter is mounted on the injection head with an adapter interposed between them. The adapter is typically formed to be mounted removably on the injection head and has an adapter body formed in semicylindrical

The complete connection section or at least the joint position can be equipped with a strengthened structure. This can be, for example, the inner lying metal core, the insert or a metal cladding of the joint position or of the connection section. This reinforcement structure can be incorporated in the stiffening strut during the manufacturing process, such that the reinforcement structure is manufactured integral with the stiffening strut. It can also be subsequently attached with adhesive, so that there is then an adhesive layer between the reinforcement structure and the stiffening strut. The adhesive layer combats corrosion of the metallic connection location on the vehiclethis study, Lugol\'s iodine can play a major role in demarcating the margins of the lesion thereby enabling the clinician to estimate the correct size and extent of the precancerous lesion leading to early diagnosis and better management of the patient.

New flood warning system works well, county says

Published 6:35 pm, Monday, July 15, 2013

During rain events like Monday's soaking showers, Bexar County officials and residents tune into a high-tech alert system that measures water levels at problematic crossings.

Since HALT, or the High-water Alert Lifesaving Technology system, went online in late May, there have been no high-water rescues at the system's 52 low-water crossings, said Renee Green, director of public works for Bexar County.

“It's just been perfect,” she said. “The reality is we're never going to have enough money to fix every low-water crossing, so these sites were based on their rural location, their relatively high use for a rural road, and that we couldn't warrant a bridge being built. We have to prioritize, and this is a wayMarkers of beta cell function in type 1 diabetes mellitus.
Type 1 diabetes mellitus is a multifactorial autoimmune disease characterized by destruction of insulin producing pancreatic beta cells that results in insulin deficiency and fasting hyperglycemia. It is now well known that the clinical onset of the disease represents the end stage of an immunological process that occurs over a course of months to years. During this period the presence of autoantibodies against different islet antigens can be detected by the use of standardized assays. The rate of beta cell loss is quite variable among different individuals and at onset ketoacidosis represents still a life threatening complication of the disease. The Diabetes Control and Complication Trial (DCCT) has clearly shown that the preservation of beta cell function in type

**SUBSTRATE SPECIFICITY OF PEPTIDE ADSORPTION**

\[secfree\]

Considering peptides in the simplest representation, i.e., as a heteropolymer sequence of hydrophobic and polar residues on a simple cubic lattice, model (\[eq:mod\]), with slight modifications, can also be used to study peptide adhesion to substrates. In tertiary protein folding, the hydrophobic monomers form a compact core due to the hydrophobic effect, and the polar monomers screen this core from the aqueous environment. The two types of monomers naturally allow the investigation of three types of substrates:in comparison to only 4 in pre-contrast examinations. The pre-contrast power doppler showed central flow in 7, and peripheral in 26 focal liver lesions. On the other hand, the postcontrast study revealed a central flow in 14, and peripheral in 34 focal liver lesions. Statistical significance between pre- and post-contrast power doppler detection of vascularization existed in malignant focal liver lesions and haemangiomas. The same pre- and post-contrast evaluation proved to be statistically non-significant in the focal nodular hyperplasia and focal steatosis groups. Administration of contrast medium enables a better visualization of intratumor blood vessels in focal liver lesions. This, in combination with the power doppler technique, brings such scans close to angiographic findings.

This is a 'nowaday' story of two Instagram celebrities, between Tyler and Jamie. Two inta-celeb reminds me a lot of these guys... JOey and Danny boy. Le sigh.

This is a light adorable everyday story, very low angst, just the usual when two people falling in love and have to manage the long distance relationship.
Jamie never had a real relationship, never slept twice with one guy, and when he met Tyler, it's something like ' a shock culture' for Jamie, a whole new dimension of human relationship.
He tried though, because, man...Tyler is a dream come true.
And the most important thing, he adored Jamie with or without his make-up!
Never questioned Jamie's choices, he's just adored Jamie. Awww...
I lovedthe benefit of retrospect yet to look back and evaluate the choices and progression of AI.

Just like we couldn’t precisely predict how the advent of iPhones would turn us into androids, with phones, maps, and info held in the palm of our hands or how the advent of the internet would impact our lives. If we balance cautionary vigilance with open-minded curiosity, we can enjoy the benefits of future AI trends, while minimizing the risks.


Are Goldman Sachs and Google, Most Active Blockchain Investors, Turning Toward Bitcoin?

According to a study by CB Insights, Google and Goldman Sachs are amongst the five most active blockchain investors alongside SBI Holdings, Overstock.com, and Citi. But, recently, Google and Bitcoin have shifted to bitcoin, leading multi-million dollar investments in the industry.

Since 2012, Google has invested in Storj, Blockchain, Ripple, LedgerX, Buttercoin, and Veem, focusing on the development of public blockchain networks and decentralized applications. On the contrary, Goldman Sachs has invested in Digital Asset Holdings, R3, Axoni, and Circle, funding projects that have been developing enterprise-grade blockchain networks and permissioned ledgers.

Thanks Amy. I learned a lot about my grandmother today. Thanks for taking the time to create this and sharing it with us. The one bathing suit picture she looks just like Aunt Violet. I sent this to the boys.

Amy, I'm so glad you shared your blog on our site today so that I had the chance to view this post. I love how you used the photos to tell the story of your great-grandmother... and they are beautiful photos. I think she and I would have gotten along great... I too love the outdoors!

What a fantastic what to celebrate a woman and to invite people in! She reminds me of my grandmother in her youth. Great idea for future entries. You always challenge


American Bar Association held that it is improper for a municipal attorney to permit police officers to obtain written statements from persons having personal injury claims against the municipality when the attorney knows that the claimants are represented by counsel.  (Opinion on Professional Ethics, American Bar Association, 1967, 343 et seq.)9  The Committee on Professional Ethics and Grievances also interpreted Canon 9 as providing that the attorney representing a plaintiff may not interview the defendant in the absence of his counsel concerning the facts of the case, even if the defendant is willing to discuss the matter.  See Formal Opinion 108, issued on March 10, 1934, Opinions on Professional Ethics, American Bar Association, 1967, 359.  Canon 9 is as applicable in criminal proceedings asthe court gave this admonition:

'At oral argument counsel for the Government did not undertake to justify but only sought to explain how this episode developed.  We assume that the episode will not arise again in the future.'  (374 F.2d at 316)

Two courts of appeals have indicated that the protection afforded represented defendants by Canon 9 should be extended to unrepresented defendants.  In Lee v. United States, 5 Cir., 322 F.2d 770, the Fifth Circuit, in reversing a judgment of conviction on the ground that an in-custody statement given by the defendant to special agents of the Bureau of Narcotics in the absence of counsel, was inadmissible, made this statement:

we believe that experimental infrared magneto-optical studies of (III,Mn)V ferromagnets are highly desirable; we expect that they will be carried out in the near future and that comparison with the predictions presented here will be very informative in clarifying the physics of these new ferromagnets. They could, for example, reveal deficiencies of the relatively simple theoretical formulation that we employ. The study of the magneto-optical response of these ferromagnets is also potentially interesting for applications, especially if room temperature ferromagnetism is achieved in the future. Magneto-optical properties of the closely related (II,Mn)VI diluted magnetic semiconductor paramagnets [@ando_book] have already proved useful from both basic science and application points of view.

Absorption and reflection measurements in the visible range have been used to establish phenomenological estimates for the p-d ands-d exchange coupling constants in (II,Mn)VI materials, and in establishing the important role of valence band holes in the (III,Mn)V’s. [@dietl_prb01; @ando_book; @ando_jap98; @szczytko_prb99; @beschoten_prl99] Photoemission experiments, which explore the deeper electronic structure have been used to explore the degree of hybridization between the underlying host valence band and Mn electronic levels, but suffer from being surface sensitive. [@okobayashi_prb99; @okobayashi_prb02; @okobayashi_prb01] In the infrared regime, recent optical conductivity measurements have uncovered unusual non-drude behavior, including an optical absorption peak [@singley_prl02; @hirakawa_prb02; @katsumoto_mseb01; @nagai_jjp01] connected to back-scattering localization effects and to inter valence band transitions, in agreement with model calculations.

Theoretical approach {#TA}
====================

Our theoretical model description starts by coupling the host semiconductor valence band electrons, described within the $\vec{k}\cdot\vec{p}$ or Kohn-Luttinger (KL) theory, with $S=5/2$ Mn local moments with a semi-phenomenological local exchange interaction treated at a mean-field level. [@dietl_prb01; @abolfath_prb01; @jungwirth_apl02; @sinova_prb02] At zero temperature this gives rise to valence bands that are split by an effective exchange field $\vec{h}=N_{Mn^{2+}}S  J_{pd}\hat{z}$, where $N_{Mn^{2+}}$ is the substitutional Mn density and the strength of the exchange coupling is taken to be $J_{pd}=55$ meV nm$^{-3}$.[@ohno_jmmm99] We assume in this paper that the magnetization is aligned along the growth ($\hat{z}$) direction by an applied small external magnetic field. We restrict ourselves tothe $T=0$ limit, allowing us to neglect scattering off thermal fluctuations in the Mn moments orientation. We assume collinear magnetization in the ground state, ignoring the possibility of disorder induced non-collinearity in the ground state which is known to be less likely for the strongly metallic (III,Mn)V ferromagnets on which we focus. [@schliemann_prl02; @zarand_prl02]

The linear response theory Kubo formula expression for the real part of the ac Hall conductivity of disorder-free non-interacting electrons is: $$\begin{aligned}
{\rm Re}[\sigma_{xy}(\omega)]

\label{ac_sig_AH}\end{aligned}$$ where $|n\vec{k}\rangle$ are the Bloch valence-band states and $E_{n\vec{k}}$ the Bloch eigenenergies within $\vec{k}\cdot\vec{p}$ theory (we use either six or four band models here), $m$ is the bare electron mass, $f_{n,\vec{k}}$ is the Fermi occupation number (0 or 1 at $T=0$) for

For completeness we list the expressions which define the quantities that appear in $\hat{H}^L$: $$\begin{aligned}

\frac{\hbar^2}{2m}\gamma_1(k_x^2+k_y^2+k_z^2) + \Delta_{so} \nonumber,\end{aligned}$$ $$\begin{aligned}

d &=&
-\frac{\sqrt{2}\hbar^2}{2m}\gamma_2\big[2k_z^2-(k_x^2 + k_y^2 )\big]\; .

We treat the effects of disorder on the hole quasiparticles through athe bands in obtaining reliable results which can be compared directly with experiment.

The Hall conductivity must be non-zero in order to have non-zero magneto-optical effects, but most measurable quantities are also influenced by other elements of the conductivity tensor. The most widely studied magneto-optical effects are the Faraday and Kerr effects. The Faraday effect reflects the relative difference between the optical absorption of right and left circularly polarized light, referred to as magnetic circular dichroism (MCD). In the Voigt geometry (magnetization aligned with axis of light propagation) and assuming a thin film geometry (applicable for all (III,Mn)V epilayers now available in the infrared regime considered here) $$MCD=\frac{\alpha^+-\alpha^-}{\alpha^++\alpha^-}=\frac{{\rm Im}[\sigma_{xy}(\omega)]}
{{\rm Re}[\sigma_{xx}(\omega)]}.$$ Linearly polarized light propagating through a magnetic medium will experience the Faraday rotation of its polarization angle and a


specific calculations presented here assume that Mn impurities and other scatterers in the system can be treated perturbatively. This assumption enables quasiparticle scattering rates to be estimated in a simple way, but is a less essential part of the model. The magneto-optical properties studied here are directly dependent on valence-band spin-orbit coupling, which we have argued elsewhere [@bookchapter; @koenig_prb2001] plays an essential role in understanding ferromagnetism in these materials. Confirmation by future experiment of the detailed predictions made here for the magneto-optical properties of these materials would further validate the approach we have taken to modeling these interesting new ferromagnets. We expect that the weak-quasiparticle-scattering approximations made here will be more reliable in more metallic samples, since the scattering rates are then smaller compared to other relevant energyin the noncoding regions such as introns and intergenic regions \[[@B1]\]. Large body of evidence suggested that variants in the noncoding regions can be considered as genetic predisposition to many noncommunicable diseases including cancer \[[@B2]\]. For instance, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have provided statistical evidence that numerous single-nucleotide variants/polymorphisms (SNVs/SNPs) in the noncoding regions are associated with increased risk of complex diseases \[[@B3]\]. The direct causal relationship between allelic variants originating from SNPs and disease phenotype becomes obscure when the variation occurs in noncoding regions. Initially it was suggested that the risk variants identified by GWAS may possibly be physically associated with a neighboring protein-coding gene that is the true causative variant. However another plausible explanation is that genetic variations residing in the functional but noncoding regions may

the internet business sector spent over $58 million on lobbying in 2018. Open Secrets writes of the internet business sector’s lobbying:

A couple of things are pretty clear so far when it comes to this pervasive and growing industry: It favors Democrats and its political spending has shot up. Fast. In 2014, the Internet industry gave out $11.1 million — nearly triple what it spent in the 2010 midterms. In 2012, its donations totaled $16.5 million, more than double its contributions in the previous presidential race. Two totals at the top of rising sums. The biggest spender by far is Google. The search engine giant gave out $3 million in 2014, nearly triple the sum donated by second-place Linkedin, an online professional networking website. … Internet companies have seena meteoric rise in lobbying expenditures. In 2014, $47.3 million was spent to influence the federal government. Just 16 years earlier in 1998 (the first year that CRP has data for the industry lobby-wise) they spent just $1.2 million.

Alphabet Inc. — Google’s parent company — spent $18,370,000 on lobbying in 2017-2018, making it the ninth-highest spender of the 2017-2018 time frame among lobbying organizations.

In 2018 lobbying expenditures, Amazon spent $10.6 million, Facebook spent $9.79 million, and Twitter spent $780,000. Alibaba Group, a Chinese-state affiliate, spent $2.13 million on lobbying in 2018.

Q:

Simplify $\frac {2^{n(1-n)}\cdot 2^{n-1}\cdot 4^n}{2\cdot 2^n\cdot 2^{(n-1)}}$

My Attempt:
\begin{align}
&\frac {2^{n-n^2}\cdot 2^{n-1}\cdot 2^{2n}}{2\cdot 2^n\cdot 2^{n-1}}\\
&=\frac {2^{n-n^2+n-1+2n}}{2^{1+n+n-1}} \\
&=\frac {2^{4n-n^2-1}}{2^{2n}}
\end{align}
I could not move on. Please help me to continue.

A:

$$\frac {2^{4n-n^2-1}}{2^{2n}}=2^{4n-n^2-1-2n}=2^{2n-n^2-1}=2^{-(n-1)^2}$$
where I have used $\frac{a^b}{a^c}=a^{b-c}$

A:

Try taking out $2^n$ and $2^{n-1}$ from the denominator and the numerator. I got $$\frac{1}{2^{(n-1)^2}}.$$
If you can't get it let me know. I'll show the work.

A:

Since that is a quotient you can rewrite it as $$2^{(4n-n^2-1)-2n}= 2^{-(n-1)^2}$$
Notice indeed that $$(a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2$$ so that you have $$(n-1)^2 = n^2-2n+1$$ so clearly also $$-(n-1)^2 = -n^2+2n-1$$ and by rewriting the middle term you get $$-(n-1)^2 = -n^2+4n-2n-1$$ because clearly $4n-2n =2n$ and as you can probably see this is the same as $$-(n-1)^2 = (-n^2+4n-1)-2n$$ by commutativity of addition

Rep. Jerrold Nadler appeared with his fellow New York Rep. Peter King to discuss plans to build the Islamic center and mosque near ground zero on CNN's State of the Union. Nadler made a few really great points during this segment which more Democrats need to be repeating. The people opposed to the center being built are conflating Al Qaida with Islam, no one is objecting to the mosque in the Pentagon, the people who want to build the center already have a mosque a few blocks away which no one objected to and we don't put the Bill of Rights and religious freedom up to a vote.

Busy Philipps on Tuesday opened up about an abortion she had at age 15 after Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp signed into law the controversial “heartbeat” bill, saying she is “really scared” for women throughout the country.

Philipps, 39, addressed what has been called the most extreme abortion law in the nation on her talk show “Busy Tonight.” The bill, if not blocked, will prohibit abortions after a heartbeat is detected, as early as six weeks into pregnancy—with the exception of rape, incest or if the mother’s life is in danger.

Many factors, including therapy and behavioral changes, have modified the course of the HIV/AIDS epidemic in recent years. To include these modifications in HIV/AIDS models, in the absence of appropriate external data sources, changes over time in the parameters can be incorporated by a recursive estimation technique such as the Kalman filter. The Kalman filter accounts for stochastic fluctuations in both the model and the data and provides a means to assess any parameter modifications included in new observations. The Kalman filter approach was applied to a simple differential model to describe the observed HIV/AIDS epidemic in the homo/bisexual male community in Paris (France). This approach gave quantitative information on the time-evolution of some parameters of

These practices stretch the notion of economic diplomacy far beyond the scope of any faux amis promoted by the Party’s external propaganda.

In Europe, the region arguably most affected by economic diplomacy with Chinese characteristics is Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), grouped together by the PRC under its ‘16+1’ initiative.

16+1 as a spatial and political construct

Beijing’s “16+1” framework, now subsumed under Xi’s “Belt and Road” initiative, promised a trade and investment boom that failed to materialise, while testing the process of European integration.28

Old alliances and new partnerships on the EU’s Eastern flank

The establishment of the 16+1 ‘initiative’ in Warsaw in April 2012 institutionalised China’s influence build-up in Eastern Europe on a regional scale. The group brings together 16 post-Communist states in the region for a partnership with China.dramatic U-turn in its policy towards China in 2013-2014, after the first directly-elected president Zeman took advantage of a rather banal government crisis to name his own ‘care-taking’ cabinet. Zeman’s cabinet ruled without parliamentary approval for more than half a year and prepared the ground for the official turn-around by the regular government that succeeded it in 2014.54

Both these cabinets were open to a group of pro-China lobbyists originally associated with Zeman’s Social Democratic Party (Česká strana sociálně demokratická, ČSSD) and since the early 2010s hired by PPF, the richest Czech financial conglomerate that emerged with substantial holdings from the privatisation process of the 1990s. For several years, PPF subsidiary Home Credit had been trying to build up their consumer-loan business in China. In 2010, they secured a


support of these contacts at critical junctures.

The BIS’s indirect warnings against CEFC have been vindicated, but the controversy flared up again in connection with the recent warnings by the Czech cyber security agency NÚKIB against Huawei.

The Huawei affair: Weaponising friendly contacts in times of crisis

The coordinated response to recent security warnings about Huawei in the Czech Republic and elsewhere illustrates the usefulness of the cultivated élite, which can be expected to spring to the defence of CCP-linked entities in times of crisis. The joint deployment of the domestic and external propaganda apparatus, the diplomatic corps and local ‘friendly’ politicians further shows the inadequacy of a Western-based understanding of the PRC Party-state-Army-market axis: an ostensibly private company can effectively function as a component of the Leninist political system.

The Czechenvironment inhabited by such companies as Huawei. Views that reduce the international backlash against Huawei to a manifestation of recent US policy79 overlook similar concerns expressed over the years by researchers, journalists, commentators and politicians across the opinion spectrum, in multiple countries in Europe, Asia and Oceania. Even though the timing of the warning was likely linked to increased scrutiny of Huawei led by the US and its Five Eyes allies, the NÚKIB appears to have acted within its remit and in a way consistent with both previous Czech intelligence and international expert advice.80

The Party-state’s support for Huawei

The actions of the agency legally qualified to issue such warnings were met with a quick political response that, if anything, helped establish Huawei’s expansion abroad as an aspect of the


whose endorsement of it came with a disclaimer explicity rejecting its construal as a “legal opinion on the application of PRC law”. While keeping the document confidential, Huawei officers including its top executives in Poland and the Czech Republic took to citing the document as an “independent legal opinion” by a British firm.83 Such misrepresentation of the nature of the document, seeking to borrow the prestige of Western legal systems to present a message consonant with the CCP’s talking points, can again be seen as an example of discourse management through mistranslation. It can also be compared to “legal warfare”, one of the components of the People’s Liberation Army Three Warfares doctrine, which has indeed been applied in civilian contexts to earlier concerted efforts to counter foreign scrutinypolitical decision-makers; should these be compromised, the whole process would be affected. Screening mechanisms should therefore go hand in hand with relevant CoI legislation.

The EU and its member states should invest in rigorous, policy-relevant research on the nature of the PRC’s political and economic systems, including the Party links of non-state entities, using primary sources to understand its foreign policy objectives and tools. Tactics of political influence, in particular external propaganda and international United Front work, must receive the attention warranted by their central role in Xi Jinping’s administration.

Looking like a test card from an early colour printer, this hideous mix of blocky reds, blues and whites was thankfully mothballed for almost the entire season.

4. Now this is more like it. Kits are often judged by the on-pitch success that accompanies them so the 1986 kit was always going to be cherished. But aside from the Milk Cup Final, this shirt was brilliantly simple AND had the best sponsor's name ever.

As a young fan I vividly remember reading about the 1997 change kit in the matchday programme under the excitable headline 'It's diamond white!'. And it certainly was a dazzling change from the reds and blues of previous years.
