in others. In the EU about half of the by-products is utilized, but according to the EU's policy the degree of utilization should be increased. Coal fly ash can be used in concrete pursuant to the provisions of the European standard EN 450, Fly Ash for Concrete. In addition quality fly ash can be used in the production of cement and gas concrete and in the building industry. Road construction and soil amendment can also make use of this material. Gypsum produced as a result of the flue gas desulfurization process can be used as wall boards, in the building industry and in the production of cement. Also other by-products from the flue gas desulfurization processes can be used for industrial purposes. By-products where utilization is no optionwill be disposed of. According to the EU's environmental legislation most of the by-products from the power plants are categorized as non-hazardous waste. This papers discusses how to design a landfill deposit for power plant residues in accordance with applicable EU-directives. However, as can be seen from the conclusion it will become increasingly difficult in the future to deposit these residues. This will urge power producers to cooperate with relevant industries to ensure utilization of a larger part of the by-products and to create solutions that will be profitable to both parties.

Sequential leaching experiments on coal utilization by-products (CUB) were coupled with chemical and strontium (Sr) isotopic analyses to better understand the influence of coal type and combustion processes on CUB properties and the release of elements during


interaction with environmental waters during disposal. Class C fly ash tended to release the highest quantity of minor and trace elementsincluding alkaline earth elements, sodium, chromium, copper, manganese, lead, titanium, and zincduring sequential extraction, with bottom ash yielding the lowest. Strontium isotope ratios ({sup 87}Sr/{sup 86}Sr) in bulk-CUB samples (total dissolution of CUB) are generally higher in class F ash than in class C ash. Bulk-CUB ratios appear to be controlled by the geologic source of the mineral matter in the feed coal, and by Sr added during desulfurization treatments. Leachates of the CUB generally have Sr isotope ratios that are different than the bulk value, demonstrating that Sr was not isotopically homogenized during combustion. Variations in the Sr isotopic composition of CUB leachates were correlated with mobilityof several major and trace elements; the data suggest that arsenic and lead are held in phases that contain the more radiogenic (high-{sup 87}Sr/{sup 86}Sr) component. A changing Sr isotope ratio of CUB-interacting waters in a disposal environment could forecast the release of certain strongly bound elements of environmental concern. This study lays the groundwork for the application of Sr isotopes as an environmental tracer for CUBwater interaction.

New flue gas desulfurization (FGD) scrubbing technologies create a dry, solid by-product material consisting of excess sorbent, reaction product that contains sulfate and sulfite, and coal fly ash. Generally, dry FGD by-products are treated as solid wastes and disposed in landfills. However, landfill sites are becoming scarce and tipping fees are constantly increasing. Provided the environmental impacts are socially and scientifically


of hydrogen sulfide from the oil and gas produced in the region. Lack of local markets and economic considerations limit the traditional outlets for by-product sulfur and the buildup of excess sulfur is a becoming a potential economic and environmental liability. Thus, new applications for re-use of by-product sulfur that will benefit regional economies including construction, paving and waste treatment are being developed. One promising application involves the cleanup and treatment of mercury at a Kazakhstan chemical plant. During 19 years of operation at the Pavlodar Khimprom chlor-alkali production facility, over 900 tons of mercury was lost to the soil surrounding and beneath the buildings. The Institute of Metallurgy and Ore Benefication (Almaty) is leading a team to develop and demonstrate a vacuum-assisted thermal process to extract theand 2.0 times the lime requirement of the soils, and alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) and corn (Zea mays L.) were planted. Soils were sampled immediately after FGD application and three more times every six months thereafter. Samples were analyzed for pH and water soluble concentrations of 28 elements. Soil pH was increased by all FGD rates in the zone of incorporation (0--10 cm), with the highest rates giving a pH slightly above 7. Within one year pH increases could be detected at depths up to 30 cm. Calcium, Mg, and S increased, and Al, Mn, and Fe decreased with increasing dry FGD application rates. No trace element concentrations were changed by dry FGD application except B which was increased in the zone of incorporation. Dry FGD increased alfalfa


hydroxylamine, alkoxylamines, and 4-amino-1,2,4-triazole to produce aminated aromatic structures, such as 1,3-diamino-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene (DATB), 1,3,5-triamino-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene (TATB) and 3,5-diamino-2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (DATNT), is described. DATB and TATB are useful insensitive high explosives. TATB is also used for the preparation of benzenehexamine, a starting material for the synthesis of novel materials (optical imaging devices, liquid crystals, ferromagnetic compounds).

An electrolyte includes an alkali metal salt; an aprotic solvent; and a redox shuttle additive including an aromatic compound having at least one aromatic ring fused with at least one non-aromatic ring, the aromatic ring having two or more oxygen or phosphorus-containing substituents.

Systems and methods for hydrocarbon extraction from hydrocarbon-containing material. Such systems and methods relate to extracting hydrocarbon from hydrocarbon-containing material employing a non-aqueous extractant. Additionally, such systems and methods relate to recovering and reusingmolecular mechanisms. While BAA misregulated the least number of transcripts, it caused strong induction of cyp1a and other genes known to be downstream of the AHR, which were not induced by the other two PAHs. Analysis of functional roles of misregulated genes and their predicted regulatory transcription factors also distinguished the BAA response from regulatory networks disrupted by DBT and PYR exposure. These results indicate that systems approaches can be used to classify the toxicity of PAHs based on the networks perturbed following exposure, and may provide a path for unraveling the toxicity of complex PAH mixtures. - Highlights:  Defined global mRNA expression

We investigate the remarkable apparent variety of galactic extinction curves by modeling extinction profiles with core-mantle grains and a collection of single polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.


the 9 parameters defining the physical properties of classical particles), we can strongly constrain some physically relevant properties such as the total number of C atoms in all species and the mean charge of the mixture. Such properties are found to be largely independent of the adopted dust model whose variation provides effects that are orthogonal to those brought about by the molecular component. Finally, the fitting procedure, together with some physical sense, suggests (but does not require) the presence of an additional component of chemically different very small carbonaceous grains.

This sixteenth quarterly report describes work done during the sixteenth three-month period of the University of Pittsburgh's project on the ''Treatment of Metal-Laden Hazardous Wastes with Advanced Clean Coal Technology By-Products.'' This report describes the activities of theammonia, sulphur and benzole can be recovered as by-products. Since the market prices for these by-products are rather low and often erratic it does not in most cases justify the investment to recover these products. This is the reason why modern gas treatment plants only remove those impurities from the crude gas which must be removed for technical and environmental reasons. The cleaned gas, however, is a very valuable product as it replaces natural gas in steel work furnaces and can be used by other consumers. The surplus can be combusted in the boiler of a power plant. A good example for an optimal plant layout is the new coke oven facility of Thai Special Steel Industry (TSSI) in Rayong. The paper describes the TSSI`s coke oven gas

The invention relates to methods for producing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, fullerenes, and nanotubes, comprising: a. heating at least one carbon-containing material to form a condensed phase comprising at least one polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon; b. collecting at least some of the condensed phase; c. reacting the condensed phase to form fullerenes and/or nanotubes.

Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) of bitumen was carried out in a continuous extractor using propane as the solvent at several temperatures and pressures. The asphaltene contents of the residual fractions inextracted and the ratio of asphaltenes to resins increased in the residual fractions relative to the original bitumen.

Recently there has been a growing concern in the release of harmful organics into the environment. Carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH's) are a class of compounds of interset due to their possible harmful effects to man as well as organisms. Anthropogenic PAH's may reach aquatic environment as a result of both industrial and domestic effluents, deposition of airborne particles, surface runoff and oil spillage. Having a relatively low water solubility and high affinity to sorb to the suspended particulate matter, most of the PAH's introduced to the aquatic environment tend to accumulate in bottom sediments. Sedimentary PAH's may thus provide a record of the input and history of these pollutants. Consequently,


selective to olefins and CO at high temperatures (650 °C) but was selective to aromatics (benzene and toluene) at intermediate temperatures (450600 °C). At low temperatures (450 °C), benzofuran and coke contributed 60% of the carbon selectivity. Several different reactions were occurring for furan conversion over zeolites. Some important reactions that we have identified in this study include DielsAlder condensation (e.g., two furans form benzofuran and water), decarbonylation (e

Switchgrass is an increasingly important biofuel crop, but knowledge of switchgrass fungal pathogens is not extensive. The purpose of this research was to identify the fungal pathogens that decrease crop yield of switchgrass grown in Tennessee and to investigate a potential sustainable disease management strategy from a value-added by-product of the switchgrass biofuel conversion process. The specific objectives were 1)This study demonstrates that subsurface microbial communities are capable of utilizing lignin and humic acid breakdown products. Utilizers of these compounds were found to be present in most all the wells tested. Even the deepest aquifer tested had utilizers present for all six of the aromatics tested. Highest counts for the aromatics tested were observed with the naturally occurring breakdown products of either lignin or humic acid. Carboxylic acids were found to be an important sole carbon source for groundwater bacteria possibly explained by the fact that they are produced by the oxidative cleavage of aromatic ring structures. The carbohydrate sole carbon sources that demonstrated the greatest densities were ones commonly associated with humics. This study indicates that utilization of naturally occurring aromatic compounds in the subsurface is


the non-ortho-PCB subfraction. The non-ortho-PCB subfraction of fraction A was more toxic than the original fraction A, which indicates that nontoxic PCBs reduce the toxicity of the non-ortho-PCBs through some unknown mechanism. This study indicates that organochlorine compounds and non-ortho-substituted PCBs have the potential to be embryotoxic to early life stages of Great lakes fish, but nontoxic contaminants can modify this toxic response. These data are relevant to the interpretation of correlations between embryo mortalities and concentrations of persistent organic contaminants in Great Lakes salmonids.

Deactivation of a zeolite-containing catalyst has been studied in aromatization of propane and butane. Various descriptions of the dependence of the alkane conversion on the coke concentration on the catalyst have been considered, and using a statistical method of estimating the model validity, themost preferable form of the deactivation function has been proposed.

The US Department of Energy's National Energy Technology Laboratory (DOE/NETL) uses the term coal utilization by-products (CUBs) to describe the solid materials produced by the combustion or gasification of coal. The following general observations can be drawn from results of field tests that have been carried out thus far to determine whether new technologies for mercury emission control at coal power plants will affect the release of mercury from CUBs. There appears to be only minimal potential mercury release to the environment in typical disposal or utilization application for CUBs generated using ACI control technologies. There appears to be only minimal mercury release to the environment for CUBs generated using wet FGD control technologies. The amount of mercury leached


of petroleum pitch over the past 20 years. The production of coal tar pitch, as in the case of petroleum pitch, has likewise declined significantly over the past two decades. Coal tar pitch is a byproduct of metallurgical grade coke (metcoke) production. In this industry, modern metcoke facilities are recycling coal tar as fuel in order to enhance energy efficiency and minimize environmental emissions. Metcoke production itself is dependent upon the production requirements for domestic steel. Hence, several metcoke ovens have been decommissioned over the past two decades and have not been replaced. As a consequence sources of coal tar are being taken off line and are not being replaced. The long-term trend is a reduction in coal tar pitch production. Thus import of feedstocks, mainly from Easternfor their treatment and analysis. Relatively little data has yet been collected. Major presentation of technical details and data will appear for the first time in the third quarterly report. The activity on the project during the second quarter of Phase One, as presented in the following sections, has fallen into seven areas: (1) Acquiring by-products, (2) Analyzing by-products, (3) Identifying, analyzing and treating suitable hazardous wastes, (4) Carrying out the quality assurance/quality control program, (5) Developing background, and (6) Initiating public relations

transporting of coal combustion residues was completed with the unloading and final disposition of the three Collapsible Intermodal Containers (CIC). The loading and transport by rail of the three CIC`s was quire successful; however some difficulties were encountered in the unloading of the containers. A full topical report on the entire SEEC demonstration is being prepared. As a result of the demonstration some modifications of the SEEC concept may be undertaken. Also during the quarter the location of the injection wells at the Peabody No. 10 mine demonstration site were selected. Peabody Coal Company has developed the specifications for the wells and sought bids for the actual drilling. It is expected that the wells will be drilled early in May.

This paper presents a theoretical study on the physical interaction between polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and their clusters of different sizes in laminar premixed flames. Two models are employed for this study: a detailed PAH growth model, referred to as the kinetic Monte Carlo - aromatic site (KMC-ARS) model [Raj et al., Combust. Flame 156 (2009) 896-913]; and a multivariate PAH population balance model, referred to as the PAH - primary particle (PAH-PP) model. Both the models are solved by kinetic Monte Carlo methods. PAH mass spectra are generated using the PAH-PP model, and compared to the experimentally observed spectra for a laminar premixed ethylene flame. The position of the maxima of PAH dimers in the spectra and


both primary (mining of ore, extraction, and purification) and secondary (forming and machining) operations will be analyzed. The chemical and physical properties of titanium metal will be briefly examined. Present and future applications for titanium will be discussed. Finally, the economics of titanium metal production also are analyzed as well as the advantages and disadvantages of various alternative extraction methods.

In 1985 an opportunity arose for maintaining tracts of Amazonian forest under sustainable use. Brazil's National Council of Rubber Tappers and the Rural Worker's Union proposed the creation of a set of reserves of a new type, called extractive reserves. The first six are being established in one of the Brazilian states most threatened by deforestatation. The creation of extractive reserves grants legal protection to forest land traditionally used(CTE) and cigarette smoke condensate (CSC) using leave-one-out cross-validation. Predictions were within 1 log{sub 2} fold change unit of microarray data, with the exception of the DBC treatment group, where the unexpected down-regulation of Cyp1b1 expression was predicted but did not reach statistical significance on the microarrays. Adding CTE to DPE was predicted to increase Cyp1b1 expression, whereas adding CSC to CTE and DPE was predicted to have no effect, in agreement with microarray results. The aryl hydrocarbon receptor repressor (Ahrr) was determined to be the most significant input variable for model predictions using back-propagation and normalization of FNN weights. - Highlights: ?

This final project report presents the results of a research program conducted at The Ohio State University from October 1, 1996 to March 31, 2000 to investigate the use of stabilized flue gas desulfurization (FGD) materials in the construction of low permeability liners. The objective of the research program was to establish field-verified time-dependent relationships for the performance of liners constructed from stabilized FGD by-products generated in Ohio. The project objective was accomplished with a coordinated program of testing and analyzing small scale laboratory specimens under controlled conditions, medium-scale wetland mesocosms, and a full-scale pond facility. Although the specific uses directly addressed by this report include liners for surface impoundments, the results presented in this studyare also useful in other applications including design of daily cover and liners for landfills, seepage cutoff walls and trenches and for nutrient retention and pollution mitigation wetlands. The small scale laboratory tests, medium scale mesocosm wetland experiments, and construction and monitoring of a full-scale FGD lined facility (capacity of one million gallons) shows that stabilized FGD materials can be used as low permeability liners in the construction of water and manure holding ponds, and constructed wetlands for wastewater treatment. Actual permeability coefficients in the range of 10-7 cm/sec (3 x 10-9 ft/sec) can be obtained in the field by properly compacting lime and fly ash enriched stabilized FGD materials. Leachate from the FGD material meets Ohios non-toxic criteria for coal combustion by-products, and for most potential contaminants

Improved methodshydrolysate increased. Regeneration of the organic extractant was achieved by back extraction into an aqueous phase containing NaOH and ethanol. A cleaning protocol consisting of flushing the hydrolysate compartment with NaOH and the organic phase compartment with pure organic phase enabled regeneration and reuse of the module. Ethanol yields from hydrolysates detoxified by membrane extraction using 15% Alamine 336 in oleyl alcohol were about 10% higher than those from hydrolysates detoxified using ammonium hydroxide treatment.

Within the framework of a program aiming to improve the existing extractive recovery technology of fermentation products, the state of the art is critically reviewed. The acids under consideration are propionic, lactic, pyruvic, succinic, fumaric, maleic, malic, itaconic, tartaric, citric, and isocitric, all obtained by the aerobic fermentation of glucose via the glycolytic pathway


ranged from 80% to 99%. Using HRGC/MS in the selected ion monitoring mode (SIM), a detection limit below 10 pg/g (10 pptr, parts per trillion) of the CLBZ compounds was achieved. For GC/ECD, an Apiezon L-coated glass capillary column was used to determine PCB congeners at background levels. More than 69 PCB congeners were separated on this column. The detection limit for an individual congener was about 0.01 ng/g. Application of SIMCA (SImple Modeling by Chemical Analogy) pattern recognition and multiple discriminant analysis showed that the pattern of CLBZ compounds in soil samples collected near Love Canal was similar to the patterns from the other areas in the Niagara Falls area. The highest concentrations of CLBZ compounds were detected in the area which is near and downwind fromin water, sediment or food. Most of the PAH found in crude oil (dominantly 2- and 3-ring PAH) are not strong inducers of cytochrome P450. Exposure to the 4-ring chrysenes or the photooxidized products of the PAH may account for the cytochrome P450 responses in fish collected from oil-spill sites. The contribution of non-spill background PAH, particularly combustion-derived (pyrogenic) PAH, to bile FAC and cytochrome P450 system responses can be confounding and needs to be considered when evaluating oil spill effects. The ubiquity of pyrogenic PAH makes it important to fully characterize all sources of PAH, including PAH from natural resources, e.g. retene, in oil spill studies. In addition, such parameters as species, sex, age, ambient temperature and season need to be taken into account. While increases in

A process is given for separating lanthanide rare earths from each other from an aqueous mineral acid solution, e.g., hydrochloric or nitric acid of a concentration of above 3 M, preferably 12 to 16 M, by extraction with a water- immiscible alkyl phosphate, such as tributyl phosphate or a mixture of mono-, di- and tributyl phosphate, and fractional back-extraction with mineral acid whereby the lanthanides are taken up by the acid in the order of increasing atomic number.

An extractant medium for extracting alkaline earth cations from an aqueous acidic sample solution isresidual corn fiber having a moisture content from about 30 to 80 weight percent solids, washing the residual corn fiber, dewatering the washed, hydrolyzed corn fiber slurry to achieve a residual corn fiber having a moisture content from about 30 to 80 weight percent solids, and extracting the residual corn fiber with ethanol and separating at least one sterol.

Contours are extracted for representing a pixelated object in a background pixel field. An object pixel is located that is the start of a new contour for the object and identifying that pixel as the first pixel of the new contour. A first contour point is then located on the mid-point of a transition edge of the first pixel. A tracing direction from the first contour point is determined for


tracing the new contour. Contour points on mid-points of pixel transition edges are sequentially located along the tracing direction until the first contour point is again encountered to complete tracing the new contour. The new contour is then added to a list of extracted contours that represent the object. The contour extraction process associates regions and contours by labeling all the contours belonging to the same object with the same label.

The Modular Caustic-Side Solvent Extraction Unit (MCU) utilizes commercially available centrifugal contactors to facilitate removal of radioactive cesium from highly alkaline salt solutions. During the fabrication of the contactor assembly, demonstrations revealed a higher propensity for foaming than was initially expected. A task team performed a series of single-phase experiments that revealed that the shape of the bottomand other critical metals currently attract significant interest due to the high risks of supply shortage and substantial impact on the economy. Their uses in many applications have made them present in municipal solid waste (MSW) and in commercial and industrial waste (C&I), since several industrial processes produce by-products with high content of these metals. With over 4000 landfills in the UK alone, the aim of this study was to assess the existence of these critical metals within landfills. Samples collected from four closed landfills in UK were subjected to a two-step acid digestion to extract 27 metals of interest. Concentrations across the four landfill sites were 58 Â± 6 mg kg{sup â1} for REEs comprising 44 Â± 8 mg kg{sup â1} for light REEs, 11 Â± 2


responded positively to PAH concentrations. In general, pool taxa responded more strongly than riffle taxa to PAHs, but riffle taxa responded more broadly than pool taxa. Increases in PAH sediment-toxicity units between upstream and downstream sites explained decreases in taxon richness and density in pools between upstream and downstream sites.

We investigate the connection between starburst and active galactic nucleus (AGN) activity by comparing 3.3 {mu}m polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission with AGN properties. Utilizing the slitless spectroscopic capability of the AKARI space telescope, we observe a moderate-luminosity Type I AGN at z {approx} 0.4 to measure global starburst activity. The 3.3 {mu}m PAH emissions are detected for 7 out of 26 target galaxies. We find no strong correlation between the 3.3 {mu}m PAH emission and AGN luminosity infraction of the benthic organisms was affected. Among the nine PAHs studied, the overall risk of pyrene was the highest, with that of naphthalene the lowest. For lower exposure levels at which the percentage of species affected was less than 10%, the risk associated with phenanthrene and fluorene were clearly higher than that of the other seven PAHs. It was indicated that PAHs in surface sediments mainly originated from vehicular emissions, coal combustion sources, coke oven emission and wood combustion, petroleum origin made little influence on sources of PAHs by PCA.

The metabolism of the carcinogenic N-heterocyclic aromatic, dibenz(a,j)-acridine (DBA) was investigated in the isolated perfused lung (IPL) preparation. A significantly increased rate of metabolism was observed for DBA in benzo(a)-pyrene (BaP) and DBA-pretreated animals. This resulted in marked increases in conjugation, in particular sulfates and thioethers, and the distribution of conjugates and total metabolites in blood and lung. When Fe/sub 2/O/sub 3/ was coadministered with DBA to the IPL, the rate of metabolism was significantly decreased with respect to control experiments.an open, direct-contact heat exchanger in a crustal magma body. The energy extraction rate has a direct influence on the economic viability of the concept. An open heat exchanger, in which fluid is circulated through the interconnecting fissures and fractures in the solidified region around drilling tubing, offers the promise of very high rates of heat transfer. This paper discusses recent research in five areas: (1) fundamental mechanisms of solidifying and thermally fracturing magma; (2) convective heat transfer in the internally fractured solidified magma; (3) convective flow in the molten magma and heat transfer from the magma to the cooled heat exchanger protruding into it; (4) numerical simulation of the overall energy extraction process; and (5) the thermodynamics of energy conversion in a magma power plant at the

Passive soil vapor extraction (PSVE) is an enhanced attenuation (EA) approach that removes volatile contaminants from soil. The extraction is driven by natural pressure gradients between the subsurface and atmosphere (Barometric Pumping), or by renewable sources of energy such as wind or solar power (Assisted PSVE). The technology is applicable for remediating sites with low levels of contamination and for transitioning sites from active source technologies such as active soil vapor extraction (ASVE) to natural attenuation. PSVE systems are simple to design and operate and are more cost effective than active systems in many scenarios. Thus, PSVE is often appropriate


the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) pose an especially challenging problem. Traditional remediation technologies are increasingly becoming less acceptable to stakeholders and regulators because of the risks they pose to public health and safety. Desirable recycling technologies were described by the DOE as: (1) easily installed, operated, and maintained; (2) exhibiting superior environmental performance; (3) protective of worker and public health and safety; (4) readily acceptable to a wide spectrum of evaluators; and (5) economically feasible. Molten Metal Technology, Inc. (MMT) was awarded a contract as a result of the PRDA initiative to demonstrate the applicability of Catalytic Extraction Processing (CEP), MMT`s proprietary elemental recycling technology, to DOE`s inventory of low level mixed waste. This includes DOE`s inventory of radioactively- and RCRA-contaminated scrap metal and other wasteextraction (SFE) of plutonium and americium from soil was successfully demonstrated using supercritical fluid carbon dioxide solvent augmented with organophosphorus and beta-diketone complexants. Spiked Idaho soils were chemically and radiologically characterized, then extracted with supercritical fluid carbon dioxide at 2,900 psi and 65Â°C containing varying concentrations of tributyl phosphate (TBP) and thenoyltrifluoroacetone (TTA). A single 45 minute SFE with 2.7 mol% TBP and 3.2 mol% TTA provided as much as 88% Â± 6.0 extraction of americium and 69% Â± 5.0 extraction of plutonium. Use of 5.3 mol% TBP with 6.8 mol% of the more acidic beta-diketone hexafluoroacetylacetone (HFA) provided 95% Â± 3.0 extraction of americium and 83% Â± 5.0 extraction of plutonium in a single 45 minute SFE at 3,750 psi and 95Â°C. Sequential chemical extraction techniques were


three or more images registered to the same ground area can potentially reduce these problems and improve the accuracy of the extracted DEM. The pointing capability of some sensors, such as the Multispectral Thermal Imager (MTI), allows for multiple collects of the same area from different perspectives. This functionality of MTI makes it a good candidate for the implementation of a DEM extraction algorithm using multiple images for improved accuracy. Evaluation of this capability and development of algorithms to geometrically model the MTI sensor and extract DEMs from multi-look MTI imagery are described in this paper. An RMS elevation error of 6.3-meters is achieved using 11 ground test points, while the MTI band has a 5-meter ground sample distance.

Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) is a powerful analytical technique thatemission lines. The spectra are organized into seven spectroscopic bins by using k-means clustering. Each cluster corresponds to, and reveals, a morphological zone within NGC 7023. The zones self-organize parallel to the well-defined PDR front that coincides with an increase in intensity of the H{sub 2} emission lines. PAH band profiles and integrated strengths are measured, classified, and mapped. The morphological zones revealed by the k-means clustering provides deeper insight into the conditions that drive variations in band strength ratios and evolution of the PAH population that otherwise would be lost. For example, certain band-band relations are bifurcated, revealing two limiting cases; one associated with the PDR, the other with the diffuse medium. Traditionally, PAH band strength ratios are used to gain insight into the properties of the


emitting PAH population, i.e., charge, size, structure, and composition. Insights inferred from this work are compared and contrasted to those from Boersma et al. (first paper in this series), where the PAH emission in NGC 7023 is decomposed exclusively using the PAH spectra and tools made available through the NASA Ames PAH IR Spectroscopic Database.

The electronic efficiency and binding energy of contacts formed between graphene electrodes and poly-aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) anchoring groups have been investigated by the non-equilibrium Greens function formalism combined with density functional theory. Our calculations show that PAH molecules always bind in the interior and at the edge of graphene in the AB stacking manner, and that the binding energy increases following the increase of the number of carbon and hydrogen atoms constituting the PAHAmanipodagrion

Amanipodagrion gilliesi is a species of damselfly. Its monotypic genus Amanipodagrion was formerly in the subfamily Argiolestinae of the flatwing damselfly family (Megapodagrionidae). As a result of molecular phylogenetic studies by Dijkstra et al. in 2013, the genus Amanipodagrion is now considered "incertae sedis", without an assigned family but within the superfamily Calopterygoidea.

This species is commonly known as the Amani flatwing. It has a slender dark-coloured abdomen with a white tip, and males have a dark wing band. This insect is endemic to a  stretch of stream in the Amani-Sigi Forest Reserve in the eastern Usambara Mountains in Tanzania. Because of its small area of occupation and the continuing destruction of the mountain forests in the area, the International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed the

Dimension,” “falling in love” has overtaken any other kind of love in bringing two people together to marry. It wasn’t always that way. In the early days of our Western culture, people married because each partner had internal qualities that held the promise of mutual commitment to each other. Attraction, they assumed, would follow.

For example, a pioneer whose wife had died often sought a hard-working, compassionate young woman who would care for and nurture his children. She might be looking for a generous man who offered provision and property. The relationship was built upon a solid work ethic, compassion, and generosity. These qualities topped their “lists” as they each sought a life partner to whom they could give themselves, knowing they’d be gifted back with equal commitment. Rather

For seven years it delivered outstanding results for science and technology on the International Space Station, now the successful plasma crystal laboratory PK-3 Plus operated one last time. After undocking from the International Space Station the ESA Einstein transporter with the laboratory on board entered the Earth's atmosphere beginning of November and burned up - and PK-3 Plus produced its last plasma, a hot one. In June the operational phase of PK-3 Plus ended with a last series of experiments and with a spectacular finish; the scientists will still need some time to analyse these data.

Basic researchand basic information for many areas of physics. Because the particles are relatively large, the scientists are able to watch each individual particle of a crystal lattice in the plasma and track its dynamic. Thus, the researchers gain insight on the most fundamental, i.e. the kinematic level. Phase transitions such as melting and crystallization, or the separation of binary systems can thus be examined in detail.

On Earth, only 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional stressed systems can be studied because of the mass of the particles and their sedimentation in the gravitational field. Experiments under micro-gravity conditions were therefore performed early-on. Complementing its ground-based research,

As Wikileaks emails prove, those held in high esteem in Washington, DC, and who are in powerful positions, congregate with the likes of Abramovic and James Alefontis, who I have mentioned frequently in these PizzaGate articles and updates. Alefontis is the owner of Comet Ping Pong pizza, Buck’s Fishing and Camping and Pegasus Museum, which businesses all line up along Connecticut Avenue NW, Washington, DC. Alefontis also associates with Abramovic.

Tragically, there are mountains of circumstantial evidence, and even things that can be considered physical evidence, such as the “kill room,” pictured in one of James Alefontis’s Instagrams, which appears to be a giant freezer stained with blood; but nothing, that we are aware of, is being done about it! Alefontis visited the White House on several occasions, according to visitor logs, and has been lauded to be among the 50 most influential people in Washington.

Event planning is the creation and development of large scale events such as festivals, conferences, ceremonies, formal parties, concerts etc. It involves researching about the event, identifying the target audience, planning the logistics, vendor services and coordinating the technical aspects before launching the event in real-time. Typically, an event planner works with clients from the initial level such as budgeting, selecting the venue, scheduling and making all the arrangements, acquiring necessary permits, coordinating transportation and parking, arranging for speakers or entertainers, arranging decor, event security, catering and emergency plans at the selected venue until the completion of the event. Thus, the event planner has to coordinate activities with the client, contributors and participants of the event.

[00010] In a networked environment, a server generally provides various services and applications to a multitude of networked users. The server operates to verify a user in order to properly authorize the use of a particular service or application. This is typically accomplished by the standard login process described above, where the server matches a presently entered user name and password with a stored user name and password.

dictionary 'applications, brute force attempts, traffic monitoring, shoulder surfing, key logging, and various other type of attacks.
.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
100012] The present invention is directed to a method and apparatus for authenticating a user. In one embodiment the invention includes creating an authentication key in the form of a user formula, presenting a user with an arrangement of variables, each assigned a value, applying the assigned values to matching variables in the user formula and calculating a first result, , and authenticating the user if the first result matches a second result of a separate and independent calculation of the user formula.
[00013] In another embodiment the invention includes a system for user authentication including a user formula, an arrangement of variables, each assigned a value r a


The user continues until the user formula has been constructed as desired. When the user formula is complete, the user may then activate the wsave" button 43 0 to store and use the formula,
[00039] In one embodiment, a user may be provided with a facility to construct one or more custom operators. For example, one of the operators may include an offset function, where the function is associated with a variable in the user formula and applies the value from a variable in the arrangement that is offset from the associated variable. The offset function may be expressed as (Offset (x, y)) where x refers to an x axis offset and y refers to a y-axis offset. An exemplary user formula that includes the offset function may bethe arrangement 365 to determine the result of the user formula, the user would observe that variable K is assigned the value M3" and then would consider the coordinates (4, 3) as the offset location for variable A, the coordinates (5, 3) as designating the offset location for variable B, the coordinates (6, 3) as designating the offset location for variable C, etc. Using the value at coordinates (S, 3), the user formula 2*B yields *104" which would then be entered in the password area 375-

[00043] Other custom operators may be created'that perform any function, operation, or combination of functions or operations.

The DEA claims that there are small amounts of other cannabinoids like THC in every CBD extract. They cite this as another reason to keep CBD on schedule 1.

“For practical purposes, all extracts that contain CBD will also contain at least small amounts of other cannabinoids. However, if it were possible to produce from the cannabis plant an extract that contained only CBD and no other cannabinoids, such an extract would fall within the new drug code.”

So even if we can somehow guarantee there is nothing but CBD in the oil… it’s still illegal.

The DEA Goes After Another Safe Alternative To Opiates

Great, more federal funding towards hunting down safer alternatives to


from the cannabis plant,” the HIA explained. “While CBD may be derived from forms of cannabis that contain high amounts of THC, the cannabinoid associated with ‘marijuana,’ CBD may also be produced from industrial hemp plants that meet the legal standards of less than 0.3 percent THC by dry weight, and which may be cultivated in 32 states in the U.S. per Sec. 7606 of the Farm Bill. Hence, not all CBD products may be classified as extracts from ‘marijuana.’”

Final Hit

Congress already declared hemp farmers could produce CBD oil in 2014 and they’re the ones with the ability to approve permanent classifications. The executive director of the HIA, Eric Steenstra said the “DEA has no authority whatsoever to impede the production, processing or sale of hemp products, includingit helps you track intrusion or trespassing.

Cold storage in any of the commonly used preservation solutions is not always adequate for donation after cardiac death (DCD) liver grafts due to prolonged warm ischemic time. In this study, we used a third-generation perfluorocarbon (PFC), Oxycyte, for DCD liver graft preservation in a rat model. Twenty-eight rats (14 in each group) were used. Thirty minutes after cardiopulmonary arrest, livers were harvested and flushed with a cold and pre-oxygenated solution of either University of Wisconsin (UW) or UW + 20% PFC. After 8 h of cold preservation in either of the investigated solutions, liver graft specimens were analyzed for evidence of ischemic injury.

Q:

Is screen flickering harmful to my MBP's health? If let it be, will it gradually screw up my display and create irreversal defects?

So my 2019 macbook pro screen's started flickering a few times a day since a few weeks ago.
I'm aware it may be fixed through Reseting NVRAM or Reseting The System Magement Controller (SMC) as suggested in this post: 2019 MacBook Pro 15 inch: Screen flicker randomly.
But I don't feel like fixing it.
I don't really mind the flickering a few times a day since it actually gives a cyberpunk feel to the whole macintosh experience.
I love cyberpunk.
I'm just wondering if this whole act of flicking is harmful to my machine's health from a machine maintenance perspective?

Especially urgently required are to reduce CO2 to prevent global warming and reduce harmful emissions such as THC (unreacted hydrocarbons in an exhaust gas), NOX, PM (particulate matter in an exhaust gas: soot, unburned high boiling point and high molecular weight fuel and lubricating oil). Practical examples of such a system are an automotive power system to replace a conventional Otto/Diesel engine and a power generation system to replace thermal power generation.
Hence, a fuel cell, which has high energy efficiency and emits only H2O and CO2, has been regarded as a most expectative system to respond to social requests. In

Incidentally, in a fuel cell system, it is required to keep a fuel and a reforming catalyst at a proper temperature, the net power generation quantity of the entire fuel cell system is equivalent to the value calculated by subtracting the energy necessary for keeping the temperature (the energy for keeping balance endothermic and exothermic reaction following the preheating energy) from the actual power generation quantity. Consequently, if the temperature for the reforming is lower, the energy for preheating is low and that is therefore advantageous and further the system starting time is advantageously shortened. In addition, it is also necessary that the energy for preheating per fuel weight is low. If the preheating is insufficient,handheld meter.

It won't make any difference in terms of performance, however in terms of readability if there are only 2 values then a bool makes more sense. Especially if you name your flag something sensible like isFlagSet.

abstract: |
    Suppose a small compact object (black hole or neutron star) of mass $m$ orbits a large black hole of mass $M \gg m$. This system emits gravitational waves (GWs) that have a radiation-reaction effect on the particle’s motion. EMRIs (extreme–mass-ratio inspirals) of this type will be important GW sources for LISA. To fully analyze these GWs, and to detect weaker sources also present in the LISA data stream, will require highly accurate EMRI GW templates.

    In this article I outline the “Capra” research program to try to model EMRIs and calculate their GWs [*ab initio*]{}, assuming only that $m \ll M$ and that the Einstein equations hold. Because $m \ll M$ the timescale for the particle’s orbit to shrink is toothe basic conceptual features of the gravitational case while greatly simplifying the gauge choice[^7] and the resulting computations.

We can categorize Capra self-force calculations along several dimensions of complexity:

-   The background spacetime may be either Schwarzschild or Kerr.

-   The field equations may be for the scalar-field, electromagnetic, or the full gravitational case.

-   The small body may be stationary, in an equatorial circular orbit, in a generic (non-circular) equatorial orbit, or in a fully generic (inclined non-circular) orbit in Kerr spacetime.

The outline of the remainder of this article is as follows: In section \[sect-theory\] I discuss some of the key theoretical foundations of the Capra program including the Barack-Ori mode-sum regularization, the Detweiler-Whiting decomposition of a point particle’s metric perturbation, several different derivations of the


body as a small nonrotating (Schwarzschild) BH. This derivation is technically more difficult than the point-particle derivation, but it avoids both the introduction of point particles and the assumption of the Detweiler-Whiting postulate.

Recently researchers have developed several new analyses of the self-force problem, leading to much more satisfactory derivations of the MiSaTaQuWa (and analogous) equations. These new analyses are fully rigorous and resolve a number of past conceptual difficulties as well as opening promising avenues for further research. I (very) briefly outline these analyses in section \[sect-theory/MiSaTaQuWa-other-derivations\].

Recently two groups have developed alternate “puncture-function” regularization schemes for self-force computations. Both schemes first subtract from the physical field a suitable “puncture function” approximation to the Detweiler-Whiting singular field, leaving a regular remainder field. Barack, Golbourn, and their coauthors [@Barack-Golbourn-2007; @Barack-Golbourn-Sago-2007; @Dolan-Barack-2011] developed  {\sqrt{-g}}

                          \label{eqn-theory/scalar-wave-eqn}$$ where the integral extends over the entire worldline of the particle, and we define $S$ to be the source term (right hand side). We assume that if the scalar field were regular (non-singular) at the particle, it would exert a force $$F_a = q \, ({\nabla}_a \phi)_p


   \label{eqn-theory/mode-sum/large-ell-series}$$ where the coefficients $D^{(k)}_a$ are independent of $L$. \[Of course, if a term $D^{(k)}_a\!/L^k$ has been added to the $A_a L + B_a + C_a/L$ inner sum in the mode-sum self-force formula , then that term is absent from the large-$L$ series .\] We partition the overall $\ell$ sum  into a finite “numerical” part and an infinite “tail” part,[^9]$$F_a = \sum_{\ell = 0}^{\ell_{\max}} F_{a,{\text{reg}}}^\ell
      +
      \sum_{\ell = \ell_{\max}{+}1}^\infty F_{a,{\text{reg}}}^\ell
                                \text{{\hspace{0.5em}},}$$ where $\ell_{\max} \sim 15$–$30$ is a numerical parameter. Then, once all the $F_{a,{\text{reg}}}^\ell$ in the numericala vacuum solution of the Einstein equations everywhere. This gives what Poisson [@Poisson-2005-GR17-plenary] describes as “a compelling interpretation” to the condition : the particle moves on a geodesic of the vacuum spacetime with metric ${\smash{^{(0)}\!g}}_{ab} + h^R_{ab}$. Unfortunately, this metric doesn’t coincide with the actual physical spacetime metric ${\smash{^{(0)}\!g}}_{ab} + h_{ab}$.

Deriving the MSTQW Equations via Modelling the Small Body as a Black Hole {#sect-theory/MiSaTaQuWa-via-modelling-as-BH}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

This point-particle derivation of the MiSaTaQuWa equations is concise, but depends crucially on the Detweiler-Whiting postulate. In this section I outline a different derivation, based on modelling the small body as a BH. This derivation doesn’t require the assumption of the Detweiler-Whiting postulate but it (this derivation) is technically much more involved than the point-particle derivation. This derivation is originally due to Mino, Sasaki, and Tanaka [@Mino-Sasaki-Tanaka-1997]; my presentation here


charged particle. Quinn and Wald also derived the gravitational self force (the MiSaTaQuWa equations) using a similar set of axioms.

Building on earlier work by Harte [@Harte-2006:EM-self-force; @Harte-2008; @Harte-2009; @Harte-2010], Gralla, Harte, and Wald [@Gralla-Harte-Wald-2009] have recently provided a rigorous rederivation of the classical (DeWitt-Brehme) electromagnetic self-force based on taking the limit of a 1-parameter family of spacetimes corresponding to the small body being “scaled down” in charge and mass simultaneously. (Harte’s analysis also includes a rigorous proof of a generalized form of the Detweiler-Whiting postulate for the scalar-field and electromagnetic cases, and for the linearized Einstein equations.) Gralla and Wald [@Gralla-Wald-2008] have rederived the gravitational self-force (the MiSaTaQuWa equations) based on a similar technique; here the small body is “scaled down” in size and mass simultaneously. Both of these derivations aremathematically rigorous and make no assumptions beyond the existence and appropriate smoothness and limit properties of the 1-parameter families of spacetimes.

Pound [@Pound-PhD; @Pound-2010a; @Pound-2010b] has reviewed various derivations of the MiSaTaQuWa equations (including both the ones I’ve outlined here, and others) and developed several new mathematical techniques for analyzing the self-force problem. Using these, he has rederived the MiSaTaQuWa equation in a highly rigorous manner.[^16] His analysis includes a rigorous proof of the (gravitational) Detweiler-Whiting postulate and also provides many valuable insights into future directions for the Capra research program; I outline some of these “future directions” in section \[sect-summary/future\].

Puncture-Function Regularizations {#sect-theory/puncture-fn}
---------------------------------

In this section I describe two recently-developed alternate regularization schemes for self-force computations. Both schemes begin by considering a “residual field”, defined as the difference between the particle’s physical


(i) they are undefined far from the particle but the computational scheme is formulated so as not to make use of them there, or (ii) they are defined everywhere but vanish (or are negligibly small) far from the particle. Following Wardell and his colleagues [@Wardell-PhD; @Ottewill-Wardell-2008; @Ottewill-Wardell-2009; @Ottewill-Wardell-2010; @Wardell-Vega-2011:generic-effective-source; @Vega-Wardell-Diener-2011:effective-source-for-self-force], I use the terminology (i); note that some other authors use the terminology (ii).

Given the puncture function and effective source, Barack and Golbourn’s “$m$-mode” scheme [@Barack-Golbourn-2007; @Barack-Golbourn-Sago-2007; @Dolan-Barack-2011] does a Fourier decomposition of the resulting equation into azimuthal ($e^{im\varphi}$) modes, and uses a “world tube” technique to remove any dependence on the puncture function or effective source far from the particle. The authors then solve numerically for each $m$-mode of the residual field (using a time-domain numerical evolution in $2{+}1$ dimensions for each mode),differentiability of the effective source and residual field at the particle. With standard finite differencing methods, this limited differentiability limits the order of finite-differencing convergence attainable very near the particle. Current research is exploring a variety of techniques to alleviate this problem including ignoring it (i.e., simply accepting the lower order of convergence),[^17] modifying the finite differencing scheme near the particle, and using finite-element or domain-decomposition pseudospectral methods that naturally accommodate well-localized non-differentiability in the fields [@Sopuerta-etal-2006; @Sopuerta-Laguna-2006; @Canizares-Sopuerta-2009a; @Canizares-Sopuerta-2009b; @Vega-etal-2009:self-force-3+1-primer].

Another difficulty with puncture-function regularization schemes is that in general the puncture function and effective source are only defined within at most a normal convex neighborhood of the particle whereas the physically appropriate boundary conditions for the wave equation  are applied (to the physical field $\phi$) at infinity. The

      \right.$$

The infinite sum over $m$ in the self-force law  can be approximated with a finite computation using a tail-fittingfields don’t meet this criterion before the evolution ends, the authors increase the size of the grid and rerun the evolution.

Monopole and Dipole Modes {#sect-Barack-Sago/monopole-and-dipole}
-------------------------

The authors were unable to obtain stable numerical evolutions of the wave equations  for $\ell = 0$ or $\ell = 1$. Instead, they (Barack, Ori, and Sago [@Barack-Ori-Sago-2008]) used a frequency-domain method to solve for $\bar{h}^{(i)\ell m}$ in these cases.

Because $\bar{h}^{(i)\ell m}$ is only $C^0$ at the particle worldline ($\bar{h}^{(i)\ell m}$ is continuous at the particle worldline but its 1st derivatives have a jump discontinuity there), a naive frequency-domain method would have very poor convergence due to Gibbs-phenomenon oscillations. The authors (Barack, Ori, and Sago [@Barack-Ori-Sago-2008]) have developed an elegant solution to this problem, using the *homogeneous* modes of the wave equations  as a basis for the numerical


are based on approximations to the Einstein equations. For example, the use of 1st order BH perturbation theory implies fractional errors in self-force effects of at least ${\mathcal{O}}(\mu) \sim 10^{-5}$ due to neglected 2nd-order effects; 2nd order BH perturbation theory should bring these errors down to ${\mathcal{O}}(\mu^2) \sim 10^{-10}$, subject to the long-time-approximation issues discussed in section \[sect-accuracy/long-time\] below. No practical 2nd-order Capra computational schemes exist yet; I discuss prospects for their construction in the future in section \[sect-summary/future\].

-   In practice, we numerically solve our equations using finite-precision arithmetic, and using discrete approximations to the ordinary or partial differential equations (ODEs or PDEs). As discussed in section \[sect-theory/mode-sum\], frequency-domain methods only require integrating ODEs; these are potentially very accurate. For example, Detweiler, Messaritaki, and Whiting [@Detweiler-Messaritaki-Whiting-2003] achieved fractional numerical errors ${{\lesssim}}\, 1.5to be possible.

-   The computation of Capra GW templates, and later the incorporation of many of the other developments mentioned above into the computation of these templates.

The result of these and many other developments will (I hope) eventually be the calculation of highly accurate EMRI orbital dynamics and GW templates. The numerical calculations involved in doing this will almost certainly be very expensive, perhaps comparable or even larger in magnitude to those for a full numerical-relativity simulation of a comparable-mass binary BH inspiral/coalescence/ringdown. Thus it won’t be practical to calculate in this way the huge numbers of GW templates that will be needed for LISA data-analysis template banks. Rather, moderate numbers of Capra GW templates will be used to calibrate other (cheaper) approximation schemes (perhaps $n$th-generation

These peptides are able to activate cytotoxic T lymphocytes at extremely low concentrations and therefore are suitable for use as vaccines.
2. Description of the Background Art
The HCMV genome is relatively large and has the capacity to encode more than 200 proteins. HCMV is composed of a nuclear complex of double-stranded DNA surrounded by capsid proteins having structural or enzymatic functions, and an external glycopeptide and glycolipid-containing membrane envelope. HCMV is a member of the Herpes virus family and has been associated with a number of clinical syndromes.
HCMV infection is relatively common and is usually self-limiting in the healthy, immunocompetent child or


received. Although unstimulated MC constitutively released CD9+ EV, degranulation was accompanied by the release of CD63+ EV, which correlated with release of the soluble mediator β-hexosaminidase. This CD63+ EV subset was smaller and exhibited a higher buoyant density and distinct phospholipid composition compared with CD9+ EV. Marked differences were observed for phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidic acid, and bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate species. Strikingly, proteomic analysis of CD63+ EV from connective tissue-type MC unveiled an abundance of MC-specific proteases. With regard to carboxypeptidase A3, it was confirmed that the enzyme was EV associated and biologically active. Our data demonstrate that, depending on their activation status, MC release distinct EV subsets that differ in composition and protease activity and are indicative of differential immunological functions.

However, during the archiving of Cash’s estate, it was recently revealed that his wife June Carter Cash had kept the tapes. “They never threw anything away,” said their son, John Carter Cash. “They kept everything in their lives. They had an archive that had everything in it from the original audio tapes from `The Johnny Cash Show’ to random things like a camel saddle, a gift from the prince of Saudi Arabia.”

Despite Columbia’s original refusal to release the tapes back in the 80s, John Carter Cash has pressed for the 12 tracks that make up Out Among The Stars to be released, and the album will now be available from March 25 next year. The tracks


feature duets between Cash and his wife, and between the singer and Wayne Jennings, while Marty Stuart – a member of Cash’s backing band – has been quoted as saying that he was “in the very prime of his voice for his lifetime” and that Cash sounds “pitch perfect” on the recordings.

Out Among The Stars will be the fourth posthumous release since Cash’s death in 2003, and the first since 2010’s American VI: Ain’t No Grave.

To investigate the ecological significance of AChE inhibition, chemotaxis behaviour was assessed in shrimp exposed to profenofos for 24h. Abnormal chemotaxis behaviour in the exposed shrimp was observed at concentrations representing 30-50% AChE inhibition. A clear relationship existed between the depression of AChE activity and observed chemotaxis responses, such as approaching and grasping the chemoattractant source. These results suggest that in vivo toxicity tests based on this specific biomarker are sensitive and present advantages over conventional acute tests based on mortality. Behavioural studies of test organisms conducted in conjunction with measurement of AChE inhibition will provide data to clarify the toxic effects caused by sublethal chemical
