Green v. City of St. Louis, 870 S.W.2d 794, 796 (Mo. 1994) (en banc). Moreover, the United States Supreme Court has held that the pursuit of a claim through grievance and binding arbitration under a CBA does not preclude a civil suit under Title VII, see Alexander v. Gardner-Denver Co., 415 U.S. 36, 49 (1974), and we believe the same reasoning applies to a plaintiff who has chosen not to participate in the grievance procedure.

Workers in the information technology (IT) industry worry about the decline in computer programming jobs due to the rise of automation and artificial intelligence (AI). Many former stalwarts are predicting doom for the industry. One of them has claimed that up to 200 million Indians will become jobless over the next decade. Consulting firm McKinsey and Co. makes a prediction that is even more dire, and which encompasses more than just the computer programming profession. It says that 51% of today’s jobs can already be made obsolete—not by technology that is over the horizon, but by technology that is available today, thereby saving the world’s capitalists almost $15 trillion in wages.

Heavily Mormon Madison County, Idaho, had the lowest levels of binge drinking in 2012—5.9 percent — while Menominee, Wisconsin, home of the Menominee Indian Reservation, had the highest rates of binge drinking, at 36 percent. Connecticut’s rate of binge drinking – 19.1 percent – fell in the middle. For heavy drinking, Hancock County, Tennessee, had the fewest heavy drinkers — 2.4 percent—while Esmeralda County, Nevada, recorded the largest proportion, 22.4 percent. Connecticut’s rate was 8.6 percent, slightly higher than the national average of 8.2 percent. The study, publishedof heavy drinkers in 2012 – 10.8 percent of adults – New Haven and Hartford counties had the lowest – less than 8 percent. Fairfield County had 9 percent. Similarly, while the prevalence of binge drinking among adults in Litchfield and Middlesex counties topped 21 percent, the lowest binge drinking rates were in New Haven and Hartford counties – about 18 percent. Overall drinking rates – the percentage of adults who reported at least one alcoholic drink in the last 30 days – remained relatively flat from 2005 to 2012 in Connecticut and nationally. The proportion of adult drinkers was highest in Middlesex County – 69.6 percent of the population – and lowest in Windham County – 61.2 percent.

Q: How do I check the html status code when calling xml_read using the xml2 package in R? TL;DR: See title Details: I'm currently querying an XML API that's a little quirky. Sometimes when you make a request, you get back an XML file of the data requested. Other times, you get back an XML file with a message that says your request has been queued. I've thought about using xpath queries to see if the data I'm expecting is there before continuing on, but it's entirely possible that a valid, properly served query will result in an empty set so this will sometimes yield a false negative. One saving grace is that the server will return a different HTTP status code when it is queueing the request.

Club list for September, Walgreens has the second lowest current dividend yield (2.52%) – slightly higher than IBM. Interestingly, IBM and Walgreens ranked number one and two, respectively once all of the September stocks were run through our dividend selection model. You may be wondering how this can be. Why aren’t the stocks that have higher dividend yields ranked higher on a list of best dividend stocks? While the current dividend yield is an important factor to consider, it is not the only factor. Equally, if not more, important is the company’s history of growing its dividend, as well as its ability to maintain that growth, going forward. Dividend Growth History To be included in the First Share Dividend-a-Month Club, a company must have raised its dividend each year ofrecently increased its quarterly dividend by 29% to $0.23 per quarter ($0.92 per year). Theoretically, the company could also increase its payout ratio and, therefore, pay an even larger dividend, but, with the exception of 2007 and 2008, Walgreens has been fairly consistent in paying out 20% – 30% of its annual free cash flow in dividends. The high payout ratios during 2007 and 2008 are anomalies as the company was investing heavily in building new stores during that period, so its free cash flow was artificially low. Yield-to-Cost Explained: If you were to buy shares in Walgreens at its current price of $35.88 and received $0.92 per share in dividends, your yield-to-cost would be 2.6%.

He warned that the United States would earn "the contempt, the scorn and the derision" of Europe's monarchies if Congress failed to emphasize the importance of the Presidency. Adams then proposed calling Washington, "His Highness, the President of the United States, and Protector of the Rights of the Same." After a few more days of debate, one congressman re-examined the Constitution and reminded his colleagues that it prohibited titles. After murmurs of surprise diminished, members finally adopted the Republican simplicity of "Mr. President" -- setting the standard for generations of American presidents to come. Washington himself was relieved, telling his son-in-law, "Happily the matter is now done with, I hope never to be revived."

A survey of 125 North American hospitals with experience in acute trauma care revealed that 96% obtain cervical radiographs as a routine or protocol study on all patients who have suffered major blunt trauma. To ascertain the cost-benefit effect of this practice, a prospective study was conducted during a 19-month period to compare the results of admission bedside clinical assessment of the cervical spine and the outcome of cervical radiography and computed tomography (CT) performed on 408 patients admitted with a history of major blunt trauma.

This technique allows low copy number unique nucleic acid sequences to be detected in individual cells. In the in-situ format, target nucleic acid is naturally confined to the area of a cell (˜20–50 μm2) or a nucleus (˜10 μm2) at a relatively high local concentration. Furthermore, the probe/target hybridization signal is confined to a microscopic and morphologically distinct area; this makes it easier to distinguish a positive signal from artificial or non-specific signals than hybridization on a solid support. Mimicking the in-situ hybridization in some aspects, new techniques are being developed for carrying out multiple sample nucleic acid hybridization analysis on micro-formatted multiplex or matrix devices (e.g., DNA chips) (see M.

of the format, all current micro-scale DNA hybridizations and SBH approaches do not overcome the underlying problems associated with nucleic acid hybridization reactions. They require very high levels of relatively short single-stranded target sequences or PCR amplified DNA, and produce a high level of false positive hybridization signals even under the most stringent conditions. In the case of multiplex formats using arrays of short oligonucleotide sequences, it is not possible to optimize the stringency condition for each individual sequence with any conventional approach because the arrays or devices used for these formats can not change or adjust the temperature, ionic strength, or denaturants at an individual location, relative to other locations. Therefore, a common stringency condition must be used for all the sequences on the device. This resultspp. 1165–1172, 1990, used high-frequency alternating current (AC) fields to orient DNA molecules in electric field lines produced between microfabricated electrodes. However, the use of direct current (DC) fields is prohibitive for their work. Washizu 25 Journal of Electrostatics 109–123, 1990, describes the manipulation of cells and biological molecules using dielectrophoresis. Cells can be fused and biological molecules can be oriented along the electric fields lines produced by AC voltages between the micro-electrode structures. However, the dielectrophoresis process requires a very high frequency AC (1 MHz) voltage and a low conductivity medium. While these techniques can orient DNA molecules of different sizes along the AC field lines, they cannot distinguish between hybridization complexes of the same size.

The goal of this project has been to molecularly characterize novel SIV isolates from wild-caught African monkeys as well as to study the evolution of virus in SIV-infected macaques. We initiated these studies by characterizing SIV from a sooty mangabey (SIVsm), SIV from three of the species of African green monkeys (vervets, grivets and tantalus), SIV from Sykes monkeys and SIV from L'Hoest monkeys (C. lhoesti) and more recently characterized SIVrcm from a wild caught redcapped mangabey from Nigeria and SIVmnd-2 (from mandrill) and SIVdrl (drill).[unreadable] [unreadable] The evolution of SIV in the cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) was compared with the virus that evolved inHuman population counts were raster data of 2.5 arc-minutes resolution adjusted to match UN totals for 2005 [@pone.0020370-CIESIN1].

was used to examine potential differences between observed prevalence of a disease and expected prevalence based on the abundance of the affected coral genera (each region was examined separately). All calculations for disease prevalence or FOC were done by coral genera (e.g. prevalence of *Porites* trematodiasis = (\# infected *Porites* colonies/total \# *Porites* colonies surveyed) \* 100). ### Examining disease assemblage patterns (multivariate analyses) {#s2d1} Differences in disease assemblages were investigated using multivariate community analyses. These types of analyses have been a foundation of ecological investigations for many years, although few studies have used them to investigate coral disease patterns (but see [@pone.0020370-Haapkyla1], [@pone.0020370-Haapkyla2]). Initially, we examined differences in disease assemblages (using raw counts of diseased colonies standardized by survey area as the multivariate response) at two factor levels, Region (NWHI *versus*[@pone.0020370-Lafferty1]. For example, if an environmental stress reduces host abundance below a threshold level then disease prevalence may decline. Conversely, if the stress compromises the host increasing its susceptibility to disease, then prevalence might increase. Accordingly, we found distinct regional differences when the disease assemblage patterns were examined across the archipelago. PorGAs were significantly more prevalent within and indicative of the human-impacted reefs of the MHI but PorTrm was reduced within the MHI. Instead, PorTrm was significantly more prevalent within and indicative of the pristine reefs of the NWHI. PorTLS was also found to be important in driving the regional differences, although that relationship was less clear. These results, although surprising and unexpected, highlight the importance of understanding disease ecology when interpreting patterns of disease occurrence. PorTrm is caused

associated with reduced parasite diversity [@pone.0020370-Lafferty2]. The pattern of increased PorTrm in healthier ecosystems was also documented in Kaneohe Bay where southern reefs, heavily impacted by runoff [@pone.0020370-Hunter1], had significantly lower levels of PorTrm than relatively cleaner northern reefs [@pone.0020370-Aeby6]. Whereas for many coral diseases, stressors clearly play a role in increasing disease levels, this does not hold true for PorTrm. In fact, a high prevalence of PorTrm on Hawaiian reefs appears to be indicative of a comparatively healthier coral reef ecosystem. Fortunately, PorTrm is a chronic disease that, although it reduces coral growth [@pone.0020370-Aeby7], [@pone.0020370-Aeby8], does not usually result in colony mortality. Interestingly, the model also showed a negative association between PorTrm prevalence and size of area surveyed (e.g. the larger the area surveyed the lower thethe underlying drivers, this study did find strong patterns of disease occurrence with PorGAs common in the MHI whereas PorTrm was more prevalent in the NWHI. This finding demonstrates the value of examining prevalence of individual diseases rather than combining diseases together. For example, if this study had combined all diseases together, then the average disease prevalence would be higher on the near-pristine reefs of the NWHI as compared to the impacted reefs of the MHI. However, this pattern is skewed by the high prevalence of a single disease, PorTrm, which has a lower prevalence in human impacted regions.

More than two-thirds of white evangelicals continue to support President Trump, along with almost half of white Catholics and white mainline Protestants, according to a new study released by Pew Research Center. Expand chart Reproduced from Pew Research Center; Chart: Axios Visuals Why it matters: White evangelicals consistently have a disproportionate impact on elections and were key to Trump's 2016 victory. They only made up 15% of the population in 2018, but accounted for more than a quarter of midterm voters, according to Robert Jones, the CEO and founder of the Public Religion Research Institute. Ahead of 2020, Trump remains their favorite candidate. Non-white Protestants and Catholics, as well as the religiously unaffiliated, are overall significantly less likely to support Trump. Between the lines: Support for Trump has fallen over the pastfew years among white evangelicals, but they remain the only religious group with a majority that favors Trump. Their support has been bolstered by the willingness of several prominent religious leaders to publicly defend Trump. Jerry Falwell Jr., the president of Liberty University, even defended Trump's "very fine people" statements on the white supremacist rally in Charlottesville in 2017. He told ABC at the time: "He has inside information that I don't have. I don't know if there were historical purists there who were trying to preserve some statues." the president of Liberty University, even defended Trump's "very fine people" statements on the white supremacist rally in Charlottesville in 2017.

historical purists there who were trying to preserve some statues." Franklin Graham, the son of evangelist Billy Graham, explained to Axios on HBO last fall why the church continues to support Trump despite his immoral behavior: "I never said he was the best example of the Christian faith. He defends the faith. And I appreciate that very much," he said. The bottom line: U.S. demographics are quickly changing, and the GOP will not always be able to count on the voter groups — such as white evangelicals — that they have long depended on. But as 2016 proved, the white, religious vote still carries a lot of weight.Mothers' and fathers' perceptions of three year olds' attachment behavior. This investigation reports on the antecedents and cross-sectional predictors of young children's attachment security based on Q-sort methodology, with particular consideration of the convergence of parental reports. Mothers' and fathers' ratings of child temperament and child behavior problems, as well as each parent's construction of the marital relationship and his/her affective state, were examined in relation to Q-sort assessments of mother-child and father-child attachment security. Generally, a moderate degree of convergence between maternal and paternal perceptions of attachment security was found; this association was stronger than the correlations reported based on studies using the Strange Situation procedure at 12 to 18 months of age. Antecedent relationships between ratings of parental affective symptoms, as well as ratings of marital quality

by the design of the manufacturer in terms of the flexibility provided by the tendon guard. As such, skaters may be more likely to omit the use of the tendon guard than to search for a skate or tendon guard providing the desired level of flexibility. Furthermore, it can be understood that a variety of different skaters are likely to have different needs (and preferences) with regard to the level of flexibility of the tendon guard. For example, some skater's may prefer a tendon guard which exhibits a high level of flexibility while other may prefer a more rigid tendon guard. In addition, individual preferences may change over time, thereby further highlighting the deficiency of prior art tendon guards which are produced with a predefined flexibility. Accordingly, there is anmodel such as NFW or Einasto (whereas we only assume that the halo had a cusp of some kind). Using $r_1$ allows a degree of physical modelling without having to resolve these unknowns. In order to investigate the origins of non-cosmological (i.e. $\gamma<1$) haloes, we construct a simple model of feedback, where outflows of gas on timescales shorter than the dynamical time of the halo can impart energy to the halo and alter its density profile. The source of this feedback can either be an accreting central black hole, supernovae, or other stellar feedback. Our model features an inhomogenous spheroid of gas in a spheroid of dark matter, and a disk. Gas is removed entirely from the galaxy instantaneously and permanently during an outflow [realistic, given velocities of various possible

Given that its low surface brightness makes the dark matter halo parameters easier to constrain, we used it as a test case for the method that we discussed in HW13. That paper contains some analysis of the result. The HI velocity field of this galaxy is asymmetric in the outer parts [illustrated in Figure 81 in @deblok2008], but as we are concerned mainly with the potential at small r, this is not an obstacle to the constraint of $\gamma_{\rm in}$. The rotation curve is well constrained and, based on the errors which are calculated from the difference between the two sides of the rotation curve, quite symmetrical in the region of interest. We find a well constrained $\gamma_{\rm in}$ value, with an intermediate log slope at the innermost datapointto account for any molecular gas not included in the model, so it is difficult to give a precise value for it. We cannot at this point state which of the $\gamma_{\rm in}$ values is correct from just this analysis. NGC 7793 -------- NGC 7793 is another high surface brightness galaxy, but at first sight we appear to be able to constrain it reasonably well. We generated a test case for high surface brightness galaxies based on NGC 7793 in HW13. ![Contour plot of the $\gamma$ value versus mass-to-light multiplier $f_\Upsilon$ of all the models produced by the NGC 7793 MCMC run.

forced a maximal disk to be used before fitting the pseudo-isothermal halo. Again, we did not find a correlation. We investigated whether there is a comparable correlation from our own data set (shown in Figure \[corrplot\]), by assuming a maximal disk and fitting a single pseudo-isothermal profile to each galaxy. We do not see a relation as presented in [@donato2004], although we note that our sample is smaller and has a narrower range of properties. It should also be noted that in order to produce maximal disk fits, higher $f_\Upsilon$ values than we allowed in our MCMC modelling had to be assumed in many cases. Feedback modelling ------------------ The question of whether or not there is a relation between any parameters of the baryonic component of a galaxy and parameters of itsis $210 M_\odot c^2$. This is larger than the energy change required in the dark matter halo to modify its density profile; the difference in total kinetic energy between DDO 154 and the closest NFW halo (based on least squares fitting) is $1.2 \pm^{1.6}_{0.9} M_\odot c^2$. Energy production is in this galaxy therefore does not constrain this process, so we must focus on how this energy can be transferred to the dark matter halo. Feedback from a central star forming region in DDO 154 was modelled in [@gelato1999] as an attempt to explain the discrepancy between observations of the galaxy and the NFW halo model. They were only able to reproduce the observed rotation curve by assuming a disk more massive than that which is observed in HI emissions,

s}$, which has been resolved in all cases presented here. This degeneracy precludes these two parameters being independently considered as physical. Our transformation of the parameter $\rho_{\rm s}$ into $v_{\rm max}$ removes this degeneracy, but unfortunately $r_{\rm s}$ still cannot be interpreted as a physically meaningful radius, because its position is degenerate with the shaping parameters $\alpha$, $\beta$ and $\gamma$. Scale radii fixed by the points at which the curve reaches a particular log slope (i.e. $r_n$ where $n$ is the negative log slope) are more useful for a discussion of the actual morphology of dark matter haloes. We chose $r_1$ due to the fact that parts of the halo interior to this distance cannot be modelled by a cosmological halo such as NFW. Thus $r_1$ corresponds to amodel we use to derive $f_{\rm g}$ is simple, but links a physically viable outflow scenario to a quantity derived by MCMC analysis of observations, and could be refined iteratively by using it as an initial condition in formation simulations. This value cannot be reliably derived from simpler fitting methods due to the complexity of the parameter space, and the low quality of measures such as $\chi^2_{\rm red}$ as absolute goodness of fit statistics for these data. MCMC provides a firm enough constraint, and a confidence that the parameter space has been properly explored, to allow results such as $f_{\rm g}$ to guide simulations.

We investigated whether the protective effect of YQHX is linked to the mitochondrial functions in rats MI model. As shown in Fig. [4a](#Fig4){ref-type="fig"}, the ultrastructure of the myocardium in the Sham group was normal and cardiac muscle fibers were regularly arranged. After MI injury, the myocardial ultrastructure was irregular and that of the mitochondria wasbeen reported to decrease the PGC-1α level in hepatocytes \[[@CR34]\]. However, recent studies have demonstrated that PGC-1α expression showed a different response at 12 h and 24 h of hypoxia in pulmonary artery endothelial cells \[[@CR14]\]. Therefore, we investigated whether hypoxia for 12 h and 24 h affected the PGC-1α expression in H9c2 cardiomyocytes in a similar manner. Interestingly, PGC-1α protein expression nearly returned to the normal level at 24 h of hypoxia (Fig. [9a](#Fig9){ref-type="fig"}), while YQHX markedly upregulated PGC-1α expression compared to 24 h of hypoxia. Furthermore, the effects of hypoxia and YQHX on PGC-1α expression were completely blocked by AMPK inhibitor Compound C (Fig. [9c](#Fig9){ref-type="fig"}). AMPK is a well-known serine-threonine kinase, which acts as an intracellular energy sensor. Thus, we subsequently assessed the phosphorylation of AMPK in hypoxia-stimulated H9c2 cells. In agreement

The endogenous circadian rhythm of melatonin in humans provides information regarding the resetting response of the human circadian timing system to changes in the light-dark (LD) cycle. Alterations in the LD cycle have both acute and chronic effects on the observed melatonin rhythm. Investigations to date have firmly established that the melatonin rhythm can be reentrained following an inversion of the LD cycle. Exposure to bright light and darkness given over a series of days can rapidly induce large-magnitude phase shifts of the melatonin rhythm. Even single pulses of bright light can shift the timing of the melatonin rhythm. Recent data have demonstrated that lower light intensities than originally believed are capable of resetting the melatonin rhythm and that stimulation of

Fujibayashi: Like Miyamoto-san said, it’s part of your muscle memory. Aonuma: Yes, your body remembers it. So whatever you do, you can’t go back to the way controls used to be. When I watch people play at game shows, I think it’s interesting how everyone plays a different way. Iwata: You can handle this tool any way you want, so each user’s personality comes out. Aonuma: That’s right. It’s interesting how some people move their body a lot and swing around the Wii Remote Plus, while some people make little discrete movements around their waist to move it. Iwata: You can use the Wiifunction as good as it could be. Everyone on the staff felt like if they really polished it up, it would turn out good. Fujibayashi,Kobayashi,and Tanaka: (nodding) Iwata: And that’s what turned it into a Zelda game with a dense concentration of content. Aonuma: I believe so. Fujibayashi: We really enjoyed making it. Kobayashi: We worked every day, hoping that players would enjoy it. Tanaka: It became a habit to say, “That’s one more thing that’s cool now.” Kobayashi: And “That’s one more thing that the players can enjoy.” Iwata: I see. You built up hundreds of individually interesting elements, like stacking up hundreds of thin pieces of paper until there’s a thick pile. Aonuma: That’s right. Well, we did get a long time for development. (laughs) Fujibayashi: Not just to make new things, but we also had plenty of time to make adjustments. Aonuma: I don’t think we wasted

Incidence of depressive disorders and symptoms increases during the transition to adulthood. The parenting relationship is a potential target for interventions to reduce risk for depression in offspring during this time period, and a four-category typology of parenting styles (authoritative, permissive, authoritarian, and neglectful) has been found to correlate with offspring psychological functioning. The majority of studies, however, have examined this four-category parenting style typology in Western populations. We used the Cebu Longitudinal Health and Nutrition Survey (CLHNS) from the Philippines to assess associations between parenting styles reported by offspring at age 18 and depressive symptoms reported by offspring at age 21 ( N = 1,723).

contrast with existing research, the algorithms discussed here address the problem from a 2D continuous perspective. Given that focus, several approaches are examined for computing the TTC in a fast and accurate manner. The results of these investigations are presented and one procedure is recommended for use. Following this introduction, the next section reviews related research. The third part illustrates the problem of interest and the fourth presents several computational algorithms that are described. After that, the algorithms are analyzed and compared. This leads to a result that one of the algorithms is recommended as the primary methodology to apply in traffic simulation models. 2. Literature Review {#sec2} ==================== The idea of computing a time-to-collision (TTC) was first suggested by Hayward \[[@B1]\]. He defined it as "the time required for two vehiclesis trivial to locate a pair of rectangles in every time step of the simulation. A general polygon-clipping algorithm can be used to perform the detection. As shown in [Figure 4](#fig4){ref-type="fig"}, one of the two rectangles is defined to be the clipper and the other is the target. The edges of the clipper are assumed to be vectors oriented in a clockwise direction. Each directed edge of the clipper is used to cut the target rectangle, retaining at each step the remaining piece of the target that is to the right of the clipping edge. This process continues until all the edges of the clipper have been examined. A collision exists if the target rectangle has a nonzero area remaining. As each edge of the clipper is examined, the size

the *i*th vehicle\'s ellipse, *x* ~*cit*~*j*~~ and *y* ~*cit*~*j*~~ are the coordinates of centroid at *t* ~*j*~, *α* ~*it*~*j*~~ is the angle of the vehicle\'s longitudinal axis with the positive direction of *x*-axis, and (*x* ~*it*~*j*~~, *y* ~*it*~*j*~~) is the coordination of any point on the ellipse. As an aside, when doing the computations, a coordination transformation saves time. It pays to put the centroid of the ellipse at the origin of the coordinate system and align the axes with the orientation of the ellipse. The next question to answer is this, "when do the ellipse and the rectangle overlap." To identify the answer, the relationship of line segments to the ellipse needs to be examined. This is illustrated in [Figure 6](#fig6){ref-type="fig"}. The process of identifying when the line segments intersectwe used to validate the simulation system as well as this algorithm is the dataset of vehicle trajectory data completed as part of the Federal Highway Administration\'s (FHWA) Next Generation Simulation (NGSIM). The data analyzed in this paper represent vehicle trajectories on a segment of U.S. Highway 101 (Hollywood Freeway) in Los Angeles, California, collected between 7:50 a.m. and 8:05 a.m. on June 15, 2005. The NGSIM trajectory dataset provides longitudinal and lateral positional information for all vehicles in certain spatiotemporal regions. We applied a symmetric exponential moving average filter (sEMA) to smooth the data for all trajectories before any further analysis. After that, velocity and acceleration values were decomposed into vectors combining *x*-axis and *y*-axis components. 5.2.

lyl-1 and tal-1 constitute a family of related HLH proteins implicated in the development of T-ALL. We have recently identified a sequence (designated tal-2) that potentially represents a third member of the lyl/tal family and, as such, may also be involved in T-ALL formation. The general aims of this project are to evaluate the normal functions of the tal-2 gene and to determine whether alteration of this gene promotes the development of T-ALL. The specific aims are to determine the structure of the tal-2 gene and its transcription products; to determine the chromosomal location of the tal-2 gene; to investigate whether tal-2 suffers structural alterations in T-ALL cells; to compare the expression pattern of tal-2 during normal and malignant T cell development; and to examine potential interactions between var r1 = document.getElementById("pad1"); var r2 = document.getElementById("pad2"); r2.style.display = (document.body.clientWidth <= 1345) ?

such that no springs are compressed. Typically $U_0$, which is a function of the random ${s_{ij}^{\pm}}$’s, is negative and of the order of $N_y\epsilon$ in absolute value. (It cannot be less than $-N_y\epsilon$.) Below we measure the floor height in terms of the incremental variable $\Delta\equiv U-U_0$. Though we use the terms “floor”, “vertical”, etc., for convenience, there is no gravity in the model and there is complete statistical symmetry between the up and down directions. The algorithm discussed below for determining equilibrium configurations explicitly breaks this symmetry, though the configurations it produces do not. Meaningful parameters --------------------- Our model apparently depends on the parameters $\epsilon$ and $k$, but these merely set the scales for distance and force. For the rest of this paper, numerical values for distances — spring-length variations ${s_{ij}^{\pm}}$,increase monotonically with $\Delta$. (This is why $C$ must be negative.) Surprisingly, however, the slope of $F(\Delta)$ may [*decrease*]{} with increasing $\Delta$. Occasionally bonds that are active at small values of $\Delta$ become inactive for larger $\Delta$, thus reducing the effective spring constant of the network. The simplest example of this behavior is illustrated in Fig. \[fig:break\]. The figure shows a sequence of configurations in which the central bond is originally active, but becomes inactive due to the effective stiffening of other parts of the network when additional bonds are activated. The numerical algorithm ======================= The algorithm we employ for generating equilibrium configurations of our model relies heavily on the fact that for a given set of active bonds, the system response is linear. By solving for the times at which inactive

a bond. The closure of a gap can generate one of two types of events. First, it can cause an additional set of sites to be activated, which increases the size of our active site list (and also increases the size of the linear problem that must be solved on the next iteration). Second, it can result in a “push” event, in which an inactive branch of one tree is simply transferred to another tree without becoming active. Pushes dominate the behavior of the system in the early stages of compression, becoming more and more rare as compression continues and the number of inactive sites decreases. The breaking of a bond, as mentioned in Section \[subsec:features\], is the final possibility for changing the network of active bonds. Breaks are generallyrare events. During full compression of a $40{\times}40$ system, which undergoes approximately 2000 events (pushes, chain additions, breaks), there are typically about 5 breaks. The algorithm reaches completion when all bonds have been activated. As explained above, further compression would be homogeneous with all ${f_{ij}^{\pm}}$’s increasing at precisely the same rate. To compress one configuration on a 40x40 lattice, generating one complete force curve, requires approximately one hour of computation on a typical 200MHz workstation. We have accumulated data for various lattices with at most a few thousand sites. Future efforts to optimize the algorithm should permit investigation of substantially larger lattices. Despite our reliance on linear methods for evolving the system between gap events, it must be emphasized that the absence of tensile forces introduces a strong nonlinearity for

= 0$ for $x > x_1(\delta)$ and $\lim_{x\rightarrow x_{1}^{-}} P(x,\delta)$ is bounded away from zero. The existence of Y’s in the active bond network leads to an advance of the leading edge $x_1(\delta)$ that is more rapid than the advance of $\delta$ itself. Taking into account the formation of new contacts and branch points during compression, and assuming simple asymptotic behavior, we expect that $x_1(\delta) \sim \delta^{\beta}$ with $\beta < 1$. [@betanote] Thus, to lowest order in $\delta$, we find $F = \int_{0}^{x1} P(x,\delta) kx\;dx \sim \delta^{2\beta}$, and therefore $\nu\le 2$. Corrections to this exponent should become significant for $\delta$ of order unity, which is also the order of the width of $P(x)$. This expectation is consistent with Fig. \[fig:forcecurves\], where it can be seen that the crossover tothe figure indicates the point corresponding to the data in parts (b) and (c). Conclusions =========== We briefly summarize the results of our study of the scalar model, discuss its generalization to three dimensions, and finally draw two conclusions concerning the implications for real systems or more realistic models. In the context of a toy model, we have tested arguments that have been applied to stresses in static, non-cohesive granular materials. Further study of the model is needed, especially simulations of larger systems, but already two important facts have been established. (1) Correlations in the stress configuration are responsible for substantial effects, both at the level of single-grain forces and that of macroscopic stresses. (2) Depending on the (properly scaled) aspect ratio, new contact formation may play a decisive role in determining

written informed consent was obtained from the patients or the patient's relatives. Twelve patients were enrolled from our Cardiovascular Department between January and December 2015. The patients ranged in age from 12 to 35 years and weighed from 30 to 65 kg; the diameter of PDA ranged from 8 to 14 mm. All 12 patients were diagnosed using echocardiography. Other indications for PDA closure included hemodynamically significant left to right shunts and/or significant chamber enlargement and/or mild to moderate pulmonary hypertension, with presence of clinical symptoms. In addition, relatively healthy adults and adolescents with a relatively large PDA diameter (PDA diameter was greater than 14 mm) were selected to facilitate the procedure. The exclusion criteria included presence of other associated congenital heart disease needing surgical intervention, elevated pulmonary vascularsize selection. Grossly inaccurate measurements may lead to incorrect occluder selection, requiring occluder replacement and thereby increasing the procedure risks and cost. The procedure described in this study places high demands on the surgeon in terms of clinical experience, multi-disciplinary collaboration, and a long learning curve. Conclusion {#sec1-5} ========== In summary, we believe that it is safe and feasible to perform stand-alone transthoracic echocardiography-guided percutaneous PDA occlusion, which is a minimally invasive procedure that preserves physical appearance and does not require cardiopulmonary bypass. The procedure can be performed under transthoracic or transesophageal echocardiography guidance, with no need for large X-ray equipment. In case of occlusion failure, the procedure can be immediately converted to a surgical case, thus, eliminating any potential concerns. However, performing transthoracic echocardiography-guided percutaneous PDA occlusion is technically challenging,

We demonstrated that USP37 was highly expressed in BCSCs. The knockdown of USP37 could inhibit the stemness, cell invasion and EMT via downregulation of Hedgehog pathway. USP37 also interacted with and stabilized glioma-associated oncogene 1 (Gli-1) protein. Additionally, USP37 knockdown enhanced the sensitivity of breast cancer cells to cisplatin in vitro and in vivo. We postulate that USP37 may represent a novel molecular target for breast cancer treatment.

As a deubiquitinase, USP37 is involved in the regulation of multiple proteins by deubiquitination, including P27, Cdt1, PLZF/RARA and 14-3-3γ \[[@CR31], [@CR33], [@CR47], [@CR48]\]. Future work should aim to determine whether USP37 could stabilize Gli-1 through deubiquitination. Conclusions {#Sec29} =========== In conclusion, our research demonstrated that USP37 was highly expressed in breast CSCs and was correlated with poor prognosis in breast cancer patients. Knockdown of USP37 expression hampered cell invasion, stemness, EMT and also resulted in the drug sensitivity to cisplatin. Mechanically, USP37 could orchestrate the stemness, cell invasion and EMT via activation of Hedgehog pathway. Further studies detected that USP37 also interacted with and stabilized Gli-1 protein, which is the main activator of Hedgehog target gene. These results indicate that USP37 is essential in the regulation of breast

A simple method to discriminate diapause from non-diapause pupae in large and small white butterflies, Pieris brassicae and P. rapae crucivora. Differences in colour and shape have been used to discriminate diapause pupae from non-diapause pupae in butterflies. In the present study, we describe a simple discrimination method based on differences in the specific gravity of diapause and non-diapause pupae of large and small white butterflies, Pieris brassicae and Pieris rapae crucivora. When put into water, diapause pupae sink to the bottom (specific gravity is above 1.0), whereas non-diapause pupae float on the surface (specific gravity is below 1.0). Nuclear magnetic resonance microimaging revealed that this difference in specific gravity is due to a difference in the volume of an internal cavity located between the thorax and the abdomenbest of the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of its kind on the cyclic deformation response and behavior of ARBed CP aluminum in literature. However, there are a number of reports (e.g., \[[@B5-materials-06-03469],[@B6-materials-06-03469],[@B7-materials-06-03469]\]) on the cyclic deformation behavior of ufg CP aluminum processed with the Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) technique---a method often considered (e.g., in \[[@B8-materials-06-03469]\]) to be one of the most developed of the severe plastic deformation techniques. On one hand, grain coarsening and the associated cyclic softening response upon cyclic deformation have been reported for the ECAPed CP aluminum in \[[@B5-materials-06-03469],[@B6-materials-06-03469]\]. Höppel *et al.* \[[@B6-materials-06-03469]\] have further specified that grain coarsening upon cyclic deformation occurs along the plane of maximum shear stress, and consequently they have suggested that this is a form of

a behavior reported commonly in \[[@B5-materials-06-03469],[@B6-materials-06-03469],[@B7-materials-06-03469]\]. The similarities in the cyclic deformation response and behavior between ECAPed and ARBed copper have been shown in a previous work \[[@B9-materials-06-03469]\]; thus it would be interesting to see not only the cyclic deformation response and behavior of ARBed CP aluminum in the present work but also its comparison with other ARBed metals, e.g., copper, and ECAPed CP aluminum reported in literature. 2. Materials and Experiments ============================ The experiment of this study was conducted on plates of CP aluminum (AA1100) after 4, 6, and 8 passes of ARB (labeled 4p, 6p, and 8p respectively) received from the Korean Institute of Materials Science. The composition of the received material in weight percentage is as follows: \~99.1% aluminum, 0.17% silicon, 0.57% iron, 0.11% copper, 0.001% magnesium, andsuppressed the formation of arrays of dislocation walls in the ARBed CP aluminum, as shown in [Figure 5](#materials-06-03469-f005){ref-type="fig"} for a representative sample. This observation is in good agreement to the findings of Glazov and Laird in \[[@B3-materials-06-03469]\]. The current submicron grain size is not expected to be small enough to fully inhibit dislocation activities. However, the dislocation density within the grains upon cyclic deformation has remained similar to that of the as-ARBed microstructure. The seemingly unchanged dislocation density may be the result of a dynamic recovery process upon cyclic deformation, a case similar to that observed as a result of ARB processing. ![Bright field TEM micrographs of 8p ARBed CP aluminum samples (**a**) in the as-ARBed form; and (**b**) after cyclic loading under load controlled with peak stress σ~peak~

for the large amount of cross-slip necessary to form a relatively straight braid of dislocations through multiple grains of varying orientation. The lack of observation of similar shear bands in ECAPed technical purity copper in literature, e.g., \[[@B21-materials-06-03469],[@B22-materials-06-03469],[@B23-materials-06-03469]\], whereby large scale grain coarsening were also absent is likely a result of the lower cross-slip potential of copper. It is arguable that the activation of the "braid" like shear bands are related to the asymmetrical control spectra since a lack of plastic strain accommodation were recorded for those samples (e.g., [Figure 3](#materials-06-03469-f003){ref-type="fig"}a) yet a noticeable cyclic creep or stress relaxation response was recorded (e.g., [Figure 2](#materials-06-03469-f002){ref-type="fig"}). However, this possibility seems unlikely based on the evidence in literature. For one, Wong *et al.* \[[@B7-materials-06-03469]\] observed similar shear bands under symmetricalAs atheists know, you can be good without God One cold Chicago day last February, I watched a Federal Express delivery man carry an armful of boxes to his truck. In the middle of the icy street, he slipped, scattering the boxes and exposing himself to traffic. Without thinking, I ran into the street, stopped cars, hoisted the man up and helped him recover his load. Pondering this afterward, I realized that my tiny act of altruism had been completely instinctive; there was no time for calculation. We see the instinctive nature of moral acts and judgments in many ways: in the automatic repugnance we feel when someone such as Bernie Madoff bilks the gullible and trusting, in our disapproval of the person who steals food from the office refrigerator,

And although some morality comes from reason and persuasion — we must learn, for example, to share our toys — much of it seems intuitive and inborn. USA TODAY OPINION On Religion Faith. Religion. Spirituality. Meaning. In our ever-shrinking world, the tentacles of religion touch everything from governmental policy to individual morality to our basic social constructs. It affects the lives of people of great faith — or no faith at all. This series of weekly columns — launched in 2005 — seeks to illuminate the national conversation. Many Americans, including Francis Collins, director of the National Institutes of Health and an evangelical Christian, see instinctive morality as both a gift from God and strong evidence forof books considered immoral to read; they did away with that in 1966. Did these adjustments occur because God changed His mind? No, they came from secular improvements in morality that forced religion to clean up its act. Where, then? So where does morality come from, if not from God? Two places: evolution and secular reasoning. Despite the notion that beasts behave bestially, scientists studying our primate relatives, such as chimpanzees, see evolutionary rudiments of morality: behaviors that look for all the world like altruism, sympathy, moral disapproval, sharing — even notions of fairness. This is exactly what we'd expect if human morality, like many other behaviors, is built partly on the genes of our ancestors. And the conditions under which humans evolved are precisely those that would favor the evolution

at simple database read query PostgreSQL has big advantages at complex database read query As a result, I think that choosing PostgreSQL is a better options for RDBMS - provided that PostgreSQL comes with more features and following standard SQL.into an output stream, C++ will first try to convert cout to a boolean value and print that value instead. By default, booleans get printed as 1 (true) or 0 (false), so the 1 you're seeing is C++ saying "yes, this stream is up and running." (Technically speaking the overloaded operator produces a void* rather than a bool, but I'll gloss over that detail for now.) As a note, this behavior isn't supported in modern versions of C++ (C++11 and forward), and you'd actually get a compiler error if you tried doing this with a modern compiler. If possible, I would recommend upgrading your compiler version, which would have given you an error rather than generating code that doesn't do what you think it does.

attached structures insures propagation and the ability to detect changes in vibrational frequency and/or amplitude due to contaminants, such as ice, bonding to exterior surfaces of the aircraft skin. In one aspect of the invention, as shown, the moveable slat at the leading edge of the wing, which is used for changing lift characteristics of the wing, is illustrated as an exemplary form of the invention. The exemplary form shows that the acoustic energy can be transmitted along curved wall structures to the reflector bar, and as well as being capable of reflecting acoustic energy along flat plates. Parameters for determining the height and depth of the reflector can be optimized by experimental procedures, or by finite element analysis or boundary element analysis utilizing numerical methods.not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. * * Written by: * Jasper St. Pierre <jstpierre@mecheye.net> */ #ifndef __MESON_CRTC_H #define __MESON_CRTC_H #include "meson_drv.h" int meson_crtc_create(struct meson_drm *priv); void meson_crtc_irq(struct meson_drm *priv); #endif /* __MESON_CRTC_H */

is not lost. Manufacturing is still the unsung hero of the British economy. The UK is the seventh-largest manufacturer in the world, led by pharmaceuticals, food and the aerospace and defence sectors. And the sector still accounts for some 14 per cent of UK GDP – compared with just 7 per cent from financial services. But the proportion has dropped from 20 per cent a decade ago as Britain's focus shifted to professional services and the public sector. And there is little sign of a change in trajectory, regardless of post-recession political rhetoric about "rebalancing the economy." Sceptics say high labour costs, coupled with restrictive energy policies and environmental regulations, mitigate against the UK retaining a manufacturing base in the face of pressure from low-wage Asian competitors.

run an offense that looks similar to USC’s, but with lesser athletes. New QB Sean Schroeder, a Duke transfer who attended Dana Hills High, has an experienced receiving corps but an inexperienced offensive line. EDGE: USC —– DEFENSE USC’s defense has improved steadily since Lane and Monte Kiffin arrived in 2010, culminating with a season-ending shutout against UCLA last fall. Although the line is young, the back seven is loaded with experience and talent. One interesting position to watch Saturday is middle linebacker. Sophomore Lamar Dawson was the projected starter, but he missed most of training camp because of a calf injury. How much he’ll be able to play, if at all, remains to be seen. OLB Hayes Pullard, who tied for the team lead in tackles last season, made a seamlessI have made some configuration error, but can't put my finger on it. Please help me with any direction.

WHY DO TROMBONISTS always wear sandals? What are mosquitoes for? Does a moustache come with a policeman's uniform? What's Johnny Morris up to these days? These great conundrums are clues in The Sun quick crossword compared to the mother and father of imponderables. The mother: why doesn't Honda import the CBR400RR into Britain? The father: why doesn't Suzuki bring in the GSX-R400R? Both are outstanding. They make racy 750s feel as manoeuvrable as beetroot stains, yet are poised and predictable compared to sporty 250s. They have midranges that wouldn't embarrass a 600. They are beautiful. And the CBR verges on being comfortable. A salesman sayeth: "Get a customer to test ride one of these and it is sold." Yet neither machine is officially imported to Britain. Both our test bikes are low mileage models built for the Japanese market and broughtdoing this. Two seconds later the GSX-R and I were sitting upside-down in a field. Bystanders said the front wheel tucked under after a ridiculously vigorous chuck in coincided with a slight hollow in the road resulting in a 20ft streak of rubber followed by an insurance claim. This is proof that a near-perfect motorcycle can simultaneously carry out self-control and self-preservation bypass operations. The GSX-R and CBR should carry a sticker saying: "You are not Mick Doohan. Do NOT be a prat." Both bikes can also undermine your most deeply held motorcycling beliefs. In the first half hour, the CBR and GSX-R weaved through traffic as efficiently as trailies, cruised dual carriageways at 80mph with power aplenty in reserve, and shimmied down a B-road leaving a vile grin stuck on both riders' faces.

but still your chin nearly bashes it. Everything above the horizon is blanked out beyond the top of your visor. This is good and bad. Bad because knees ache after 25 minutes, wrists don't last much longer and the low screen spares only the top of your thighs from the breeze. Good because the GSX-R is one of the finest handling, most exciting motorcycles in the whole wide world. The front-end is so fast that a dab on a peg will fling the GSX-R into the turn like it's bungeed to the deck. Whereas the CBR is immediately natural, the GSX-R takes getting used to. While you watch the delicious rear-end of the CBR cruise gently round a mini-roundabout, the GSX-R has already dived across the roundabout and is making for the wrong side of the road. Until you're usedCaM-independent electron transferring through the reductase domain, despite CaM is still required to promote electron transference from the FMN domain to the heme for NO production (Roman and Masters, [@B62]). ### Dimer stability The dimerization maintained by the N-terminal domain is crucial for the catalytic activity of nNOS. Otherwise, the transport of electrons and formation of nNOS products do not exist (Stuehr, [@B76]). Dimer formation has the participation of residues from the oxygenase domain that form a "hook" which reaches across to the oxygenase domain of the other subunit to coordinate dimer formation (Crane et al., [@B19]). Zinc binding has a contribution in dimer stabilization (Hemmens et al., [@B31]). The disulfide bonds formed by cysteine residues along the nNOS molecule and BH~4~ binding are also important to stabilize nNOS dimeric

by screening 13 billion different peptides and had found that this motif binds to peptides ending with Asp-X-Val. Formation of nNOS products {#s4} ========================== NO formation through L-arginine is catalyzed by nNOS in two steps: the hydroxylation of L-arginine to the intermediate N^ω^-hydroxy-L-arginine (NOHA), which is then oxidized to L-citrulline and NO (Papale et al., [@B55]). In the first step, NADPH transfers electrons to FAD and FMN, which have the capacity to reduce molecular oxygen to superoxide ($\text{O}_{2}^{\bullet -}$) (Figure [1](#F1){ref-type="fig"}). At the same time, an electron from flavin-mononucleotide (FMNH) reduces the heme group (Fe^3+^ to Fe^2+^). The reduction of Fe^3+^ enables O~2~ linking resulting in an $\text{O}_{2^{-}}$Fe^2+^ complex. The electron from the complex alternates between Fe^2+^ and O~2~, resulting in the complex $\text{O}_{2}^{\bullet -}$Fe^3+^. In the deficiency of L-arginine orelectrons from the reductase group, resulting in the cleavage of NOHA and release of water, L-citrulline and NO (Abu-Soud et al., [@B2], [@B1]; Rosen et al., [@B63]). Therefore, during the enzymatic formation of NO cycle, nNOS also generates H~2~O~2~ and $\text{O}_{2}^{\bullet -}$ (Figure [1](#F1){ref-type="fig"}). The production of these reactive oxygen species (ROS) by nNOS can occur even at saturating concentrations of L-arginine or NOHA in steps before the formation of NO (Rosen et al., [@B63]; Tsai et al., [@B77]; Weaver et al., [@B80]). At the expense of $\text{O}_{2}^{\bullet -}$, the production of H~2~O~2~ is strongly increased by BH~4~ (Rosen et al., [@B63]). Role of nNOS in vascular homeostasis {#s5} ==================================== Emerging evidence shows that nNOS has a physiologically relevant role in the control of the cardiovascular system.

In fact, it will be unnecessary to read most of your emails. The communication software company lets teams chat in real time and share files. Earlier this year, Slack introduced the Slackbot, a chatbot meant to help users navigate the app more easily. Ask the bot a straightforward question about how to use Slack ("How do I edit a message I've posted?") and it will deliver the answer. But co-founder and chief technology officer Cal Henderson says the company wants to make Slack's artificial intelligence strong enough that it can read through your messages so you don't have to.

Text, meanwhile, can already understand the content of messages. It goes beyond simply recognizing keywords, so typing "I need a ride to the party" will bring up a button to hail an Uber, but "I don't need a ride" won't. In June, Slack head of learning and intelligence Noah Weiss told Recode in an interview that the company is working on making its chatbot a resource for workers. The vision: Ask the Slackbot a question about your company like, "Who's in charge of sales in Berlin?" and it will offer the answer within milliseconds. At the time, Weiss said that employees spend 20 percent of their workdays looking for information about how to do their jobs.

"I made mistakes in my life, but I am not a threat to society, and I begrudge no one. My co-defendants have been home for years. All I am asking is to be afforded the dignity to spend the last few years of my life with my family, and to die outside of prison."

Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) is a specification that makes hardware status information available to an operating system in computers including laptops, desktop, servers, etc. The ACPI also allows hardware resources to be manipulated. For example, ACPI assists in power management by allowing a computer system's peripherals to be powered on and off for improved power management. ACPI also allows the computer system to be turned on and off by external devices. For example, the touch of a mouse or the press of a key may wake up the computer system using ACPI. Traditionally ACPI has been difficult to work with for a variety of reasons. First, ACPI is not written in the native assembly language of the computer system platform. Instead, ACPI has its own source andmachine languages, ACPI Source Language (ASL) and ACPI Machine Language (AML), respectively. Because of its highly specialized use, there are relatively few ASL programmers. Furthermore, ASL has relatively few constructs because of its limited use. Furthermore, ACPI code is conventionally monolithic in its design. Consequently, this makes it difficult to port the ACPI code to other platforms or even to different configurations of the same platform. Thus, new ASL code needs to be written to work with different platforms. The limited number of ASL programmers makes writing new code all the more problematic and costly. ACPI is composed of both static and interpretable tables. At bootup time, the system firmware constructs the static tables, which are consumed by the operating system. The interpretable tables are composed of AML. The

The patient, when he was conscious, was very abusive and combative, used obscene language, and was generally unruly. There were about seven doctors and nurses present in the emergency room where they were tending to the patient. During this time, the patient stated that he was infected with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). Due to the patient's unruly behavior, the appellee was called to the scene. Initially, the appellee only observed the scene, but when the patient's bed fell over and it appeared that the medical personnel needed help in restraining the patient, the appellee attempted to assist. As the appellee was lifting the patient back onto the bed, the patient bit the appellee on the appellee's forearm. The appellee asserted
{ "pile_set_name": [ "PubMed Central", "FreeLaw" ] }
46,382,579
that the patient's own blood was in and around his mouth when he bit the appellee. The appellee testified that he had, on previous occasions, assisted in restraining AIDS patients, but it was always the hospital's procedure to inform the restraining officer of such so that proper precautions could be taken. Furthermore, evidence was introduced that the hospital failed to post warning signs at the emergency room pursuant to rules and regulations of the hospital, despite the fact that the attending hospital personnel knew that the patient with whom they were dealing had AIDS. These signs would have warned others that the patient in the hospital room had an infectious disease. The evidence in this case establishes that at least one-half hour elapsed from the time the hospital personnelunable to demonstrate such an exposure, and consequently, his claim for emotional distress damages was barred.[4] Similarly, in Doe v. Doe, 136 Misc.2d 1015, 519 N.Y.S.2d 595 (Sup.Ct.1987), a wife, in a divorce suit, sought damages for intentional infliction of emotional distress based upon her husband's failure to disclose that he had had a homosexual relationship, which the wife alleged placed her at risk of contracting AIDS. The court denied the wife's claim, pointing out that neither she nor her husband had contracted AIDS. The court also raised the absurd possibilities of recognizing such a claim where there is no proof of exposure to AIDS. For example, the court suggested that recognition of this claim would force a person who has had a recent blood transfusion "to disclose this

patient for the protection of both the officer and the patient. Because the appellee in this case did not know that the patient had AIDS, no such precautions were taken. This was a deviation *894 from routine practice in a situation where the appellee's job involved being in the room assisting the hospital personnel. As stated previously, at least one-half hour elapsed from the time the hospital personnel learned of the patient's condition to the time the appellee began assisting with the patient. The circuit court in this case instructed the jury as to the reasonableness of the appellee's claim. Specifically, the circuit court instructed: It is a contention of plaintiff that because of being bitten in the emergency room on June 2, 1988, he now suffers great mental distressjob entailed assisting hospital personnel in dealing with unruly patients. There was also evidence that the appellant failed to take proper precautions pursuant to its own regulations by warning the appellee that the patient whom he was subduing was infected with the AIDS virus. Finally, there was evidence that the appellee *895 was exposed to the AIDS virus because of the bite, and that he reasonably feared contracting AIDS as a result of his emotional distress. This Court has held: "Questions of negligence, due care, proximate cause and concurrent negligence present issues of fact for jury determination when the evidence pertaining to such issues is conflicting or where the facts, even though undisputed, are such that reasonable men may draw different conclusions from them."

Some remnants may even have been incorporated into the material that became Mars. Trojans are distinct from the asteroids found in the asteroid belt, which begins about 101 million kilometres past Mars and stretches toward Jupiter. While Trojans orbit the sun, like the asteroid belt, they are trapped in gravitational sweet spots that ensure they will permanently trail or precede the planet in its trip around our star.

we afford and what’s flexible? “Flexible” usually meaning can you drop the kids off early enough so that you don’t get a reputation for being late at work. And can you pick them up late enough so that you don’t get a reputation for sneaking off early? In this context, other important questions – who can you trust? Is the child happy? Are you happy? – could start to seem almost frivolous. When your child’s welfare ultimately depends on you keeping your job, childcare goes from being a choice to being a basic utility, as indispensable as the water from your taps and the electricity that powers your lights. It’s at this level that people are hardest hit by substandard state provisions and, of these people, it would seem thatthe mood strikes you, rest your bones amid the smooth contours of the water-polished granite, and settle in for a moment's quiet meditation. Past the falls, you descend on ramplike switchbacks through dense chaparral and presently reach the oak-dotted flood-plain of San Juan Creek. Stay left at a pair of unsigned junctions with Chiquito Trail; if you cross the creek, you're off-route. Ahead, you'll plunge into a veritable thicket of centuries-old coast live oak trees. Their overarching limbs mute the glare of the sun and sky. In the soft, filtered light, the ground glows with the seasonal greens, browns, and reds of ferns, poison oak, and wild grasses. Beware of several more unsigned use paths that branch off and rejoin the main trail. Touching briefly upon the perimeter of Upper

In Japan, terrestrial television broadcasting using digital signals was started in part of the country at the end of the year 2003, and is planned to be expanded to cover the entire country in the year 2006. The terrestrial digital broadcasting will use UHF (Ultra-High Frequency) band, which includes physical channels from channel 13 to channel 62. Therefore, there is going to be a drastic increase in the number of channels as compared to VHF (Very High Frequency) band which is used in the current standard analog broadcasting. In the current television broadcasting, broadcasting channels are fixed for each area, and television receivers are so made that when a user buys a new television receiver, he/she can input an area identification code such as a Postal Code which is specificto the location of installation (the area where the user lives). Through such an arrangement, channels available in the area can be set to channel selection positions. For this purpose, the television receivers store, in advance, a lookup table which relates available channels in each of the areas to channel selection positions, for the entire area of Japan. Like the terrestrial analog-signal broadcasting, the terrestrial digital broadcasting will be made by a plurality of broadcast stations located in different regions. For this reason, selecting the place of installation (the area where the user lives) and setting channels available in the area to channel selection positions are also operations which need to be performed in the terrestrial digital receiver. In the terrestrial digital broadcasting receivers, it is possible to identify the

White Bean Hummus Impossibly Delicious White Bean Hummus Here’s the thing, I’ve always been a bit of a purist about a lot of food items but none more so than hummus, which I believe I may have been weaned on. I just can’t wrap my head around red pepper hummus or avocado hummus and look it’s not that I don’t like those ingredients and in fact like them in an awful lot of things and even on their own. Hummus just isn’t one of them. A purist that is until one of my favourite lunch spots in lovely mid-town Toronto started serving this with their unbearably delectable baguette. It’s so good in fact that if I’m there meeting a friend for just a splash of wine I always ask if they’llNeed some professional marketing advice? It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3…4, 5! So you’re starting a new business or need to give your existing business a boost and need some help with your marketing and design, but you’re feeling nervy because you’ve never done this before? Firstly, congratulations on identifying that you need a professional approach to your marketing. In order to build recognition, you need to portray your brand consistently every time your client (or potential client) sees your brand, so it’s important to make sure you’re doing it right! The trouble is, while you want to employ an agency the sceptic in you is worried that you’ll get taken for a ride. So how do you go about making sure you get the best value for money? Here are

--- abstract: 'We present full characterisation of acoustic wave devices based on the fully synthetic crystalline material at the liquid helium temperature range [ required for the design of ultra low loss mechanical systems in many areas of research including frequency control and fundamental measurements]{}. Temperature coefficients of the effective elastic tensor of Langatate (LGT) in Lagrangian representation are determined for the temperature range $3.8-15$K. The Lagrangian formalism is mandatory in the analysed situation since the expansion coefficients of the LGT are still unknown at these temperatures. The measurement method involves a set of high-quality resonators of various cut angles, and uses measurements of frequency-temperature relations to extract the temperature coefficients of the elastic tensor. In addition, power sensitivity of LGT resonators at cryogenic temperatures is determined and dominantand $\xi_j^{(1)}\xi_k^{(1)}\xi_j^{(1)}$ are of the order of $10^{-12}$. Comparing this order to $10^{-6}$ for the single coefficients $\xi^{(k)}_{j}$, relationships (\[R099GF\]) can be limited to the first order terms resulting in the straightforward relation: $$\label{R101GF} \left. \begin{array}{ll} \displaystyle \chi^{(k)}_{i} = M_{ij}^{(k)} \xi^{(k)}_{j}.\\ \end{array} \right.$$ The overall identification procedure include the following steps: 1) temperature dependence measurements of resonant frequencies and fitting of frequency-temperature plots to $3$rd order polynoms (experience shows that higher orders are not necessary). If possible applied this to three modes with wave numbers $(n,0,0)$, $(n,2,0)$ and $(n,0,2)$ with $n\geq3$; 2) application of correction (\[R004GF\]) giving an eigenfrequency of an infinite plate; 3) calculation of temperature coefficients $\chi^{(k)}_{n}$ of this frequency; 4) recalculation of effective material temperature coefficients $\xi^{(1)}_{e}$ by solving (\[R101GF\]). Note that the data set

about $10^6$ to $10^{7}$) demonstrates no power law in temperature dependence. These facts show that device losses are most likely dominated by engineering losses, i.e. clamping problem, due to lack of phonon trapping. Thus, regimes of material losses for LGT resonators have not been achieved yet. This is confirmed by the considerable difference in quality factors for two resonators resulting from non-reproducibility of the technology. Additionally, the two resonators demonstrate a sharp peak of acoustic wave absorption near $40$K. Similar to quartz resonators, this could be related to impurity ions inevitably found in the crystalline structure [@gfact], [or more probably due to activity dips[@Johnson2002], because peaks of both samples do not appear at the same temperature. ]{} ![Temperature dependence of quality factors of two Y-cut resonators of the same typeare presented, and the differences are primarily caused by disagreements over how to represent changes of curvature. [@CiarletJr:2005vn] has provided a tensor definition of the change of curvature that has become accepted, however, the utility of this expression is limited by its complexity. We have been able to simplify the representation of this tensor using rotors, allowing a more lucid and physical interpretation of changes of curvature. We take advantage of this to allow us to understand the importance of the change of curvature in the context of our Starling resistor experiments. In order to compare results from the shell theory to our experimental results we need to be able to calculate the kinematic parameters associated with the deformation of the flexible tube. To enable this we use stereoscopic

now use rotors to better understand what will produce changes in $\mathsf H$. To begin, we note that we can perform a polar decomposition on $\mathsf F$ such that $\mathsf F(Y)=\mathsf R\mathsf U(Y)$ where $\bar{\mathsf R}=\mathsf R^{-1}$, $\det\mathsf R=1$, and $\bar{\mathsf U}=\mathsf U$. $\mathsf R$ encodes rotation, and $\mathsf U$ encodes stretching. We can choose to consider a frame $\{E_i\}$ on the reference configuration that is locally orthonormal[^1]. In this case $E_3=E_1{\pmb{\bm{\times}}}E_2=-I_3(E_1\wedge E_2)=-I_3(E_1E_2)$, where $I_3$ is the pseudoscalar of three-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb E^3$. To find $e_3$ we need two unit vectors in the tangent space of the spatial configuration that are oriented in the same way as the pair $\mathsf F(E_1),\mathsf F(E_2)$, and are orthonormal. This pair of unit vectors is given by $\mathsf R(E_1),\mathsf R(E_2)$, and so $e_3$ is given byto understand the importance of bending in the Starling resistor. Experiment Description ====================== Experimental Setup ------------------ shows a schematic of the experimental setup used to investigate the oscillations of flexible tubes. Air flows into the system through (1), then through a rotameter (2) used to monitor flowrate. The noise that the rotameter introduces into the flow, and any other noise, is isolated from the flexible tube by the upstream settling chamber (3). Air flows into the upstream clean flow tube (5) section via a shaped inlet (4) that reduces separation. A contraction (6) leads to the flexible tube (7), before an expansion (6’) leads to the downstream clean flow tube (5’) that exits into the downstream settling chamber (3’). Suction is provided by a fan (8). The downstream settling chamber (3’) isolates the
