[ "Growers watch fields for resistant weeds\n\nBob Scott and Chris Tingle | Feb 14, 2003\n\nApproximately 75 percent of the soybeans grown in Arkansas are Roundup Ready. ", "This is around 2.5 million acres. ", "The percentages of acres that are Roundup Ready in other states, have not risen to quite this level.", "\n\nThe reason for the large number of acres in Arkansas is the genuine need for the technology. ", "Palmer amaranth and common cocklebur long ago developed resistance to herbicides such as Scepter and Classic in the state. ", "Arkansas also has documented populations of Prowl/Treflan-resistant pigweeds and goosegrass.", "\n\nCouple that with a long growing season, plenty of rain or irrigation, crop rotational issues and a large soil bank of weed seeds and you have a perfect fit for using Roundup Ready soybeans and glyphosate.", "\n\nHowever, considering the history of herbicide resistance, it seems only a matter of time until the Roundup technology meets a fate similar to herbicides that have come (and gone) before.", "\n\nHerbicide resistance builds up over time when the same herbicide is used again and again to control weeds. ", "It works a lot like natural selection. ", "You kill all the susceptible weeds and somewhere out there in the field a lone plant survives. ", "This plant has a unique enzyme system or some other trait that allows it to withstand the herbicide application.", "\n\nIt goes to seed. ", "Some of its progeny have the same trait. ", "When the same herbicide with the same mode of action is used again, it is not effective on these plants. ", "With continued use of this product, the resistant population continues to build and eventually takes over the field. ", "At this point the herbicide that used to work so well is no good, at least on that weed.", "\n\nWith other modes of action this process has taken as little as seven years. ", "So the question keeps coming up at grower meetings this spring — “When will we get resistance to Roundup?” ", "You might already have it.", "\n\nSeveral species of weeds have already been documented with glyphosate resistance. ", "In Australia, some ryegrass has been found to be resistant to glyphosate and several other herbicide families and Roundup-resistant goosegrass has been documented in the Northeastern United States.", "\n\nProbably the most famous weed in the Delta right now is glyphosate-resistant marestail or horseweed. ", "In Tennessee where no-till cotton is grown, resistant horseweed populations have grown significantly over the last three or four years.", "\n\nA few suspicious fields have been tested and observed in Arkansas, but there have been no documented cases yet.", "\n\nThe 2.5 million acres of Arkansas Roundup Ready soybeans get treated one or two times with glyphosate in crop. ", "Some possibly get a burndown application of glyphosate followed by two in-crop glyphosate treatments. ", "In addition, we have conventional burndown acres, Roundup Ready cotton, and Roundup Ready corn which all receive at least one application of glyphosate.", "\n\nIt would be safe to say that over 4 million acres are treated with glyphosate annually in Arkansas. ", "To say the least, this is a tremendous amount of selection pressure. ", "In the past, it was believed that due to the complex enzyme system that glyphosate interacts with, the buildup of resistance would be unlikely. ", "However, the recent development of resistant weeds in the field and subsequent lab studies show that resistance can happen.", "\n\nAlso, there are theories that “weed shifts” and not resistance will be the first real challenge for the soybean technology. ", "This is similar to the shift in perennial weeds that is observed when fields go from conventional tillage to no-till. ", "The bottom line is that no matter how resistance develops, once you have it you need new technology.", "\n\nThe most disturbing thing for soybean weed control is that companies are not looking very hard for new soybean herbicides right now. ", "If widespread resistance were to happen today, we would have to rely on old chemistry coming back into play.", "\n\nWhat can you do to prevent resistant weeds from building up on your farm? ", "The most obvious thing is rotate chemistry. ", "In other words, do not use glyphosate for a season or at least for one of your applications. ", "I suggest using paraquat (Gramoxone) as a burndown in place of Roundup, for example.", "\n\nHowever, you have to make sure that the herbicide that you switch to is not the same mode of action. ", "For example, switching from Roundup to Touchdown would not be changing your mode of action. ", "You would still be putting the same selection pressure on your farm.", "\n\nAnother option is going back to conventional soybeans. ", "Although the yield gap is now almost gone, there are still some very high-yielding conventional soybean varieties out there and the cost of many conventional herbicides has gone down.", "\n\nMany conventional herbicides are still not as economical as glyphosate, but compared to what you used to pay, they are cheaper.", "\n\nMany herbicide resistance strategies involve simply tank-mixing glyphosate with another herbicide. ", "This is fine for the management of a specific weed problem. ", "However, in the grand scheme of things, you are still applying the same selection pressure on your farm again and again. ", "So tank-mixing is better than nothing, but still promotes resistance.", "\n\nRoundup Ready soybeans and Roundup herbicide offer the most economical and broad-spectrum weed control ever available for soybean farmers. ", "In all probability, we will continue to use this technology as much as possible until resistance does develop.", "\n\nIt is unlikely that widespread rotation of chemistry and crops will be utilized to prevent the buildup of resistant weeds. ", "In the words of several growers, “It is just too good and too cheap not to use.”", "\n\nOne thing we can do is to watch our fields very closely and report any suspicious weeds that survive one or more applications of glyphosate. ", "Prior to any re-treatment, these weeds should be sampled and studied. ", "If you suspect that a weed or weed population has survived a glyphosate application that in the past has controlled that weed, please contact your county agent.", "\n\nBob Scott is the University of Arkansas Extension weed specialist. [", "email protected]. ", "Chris Tingle is the University of Arkansas Extension soybean agronomist." ]

", "I work on British colonialism, modernism, postcolonial/global literature, and the digital humanities.", "\n\nTuesday, April 20, 2004\n\nA Small Defense of Northrop Frye: 'Plasmatic' literature, and the Creature/Creator distinction\n\nNOTE: I've modified and corrected the entry below a bit since originally posting it.", "\n\nNorthrop Frye is one of the key members of the earlier generation in literary criticism, though his works have lately vanished from the syllabi of graduate seminars in today's Ph.D. programs. ", "He is best known for his book The Anatomy of Criticism (1957), as well as his theory of \"archetypes,\" though he wrote many other books, including one I've been reading recently, The Secular Scripture (1976).", "\n\nFrye is sometimes associated with the movement known as the New Criticism, since he is roughly contemporary with the famous critics of that era -- Frank Kermode, Cleanth Brooks. ", "But his work really aimed to move away from the debates about taste that were prevalent in the New Criticism, and towards a more democratized approach to literature as an expression of myth. ", "The New Critics had an obsession with the originality of the poetic voice, wherease Frye believed that literature is the product at least of a 'literary society', if not society in general (the latter would be the view currently held by most contemporary literary critics).", "\n\nI am not by any means trying to make a conservative gesture, where I would hold up Frye as somehow right about everything, only we no longer believe him. ", "Rather, I think his work might benefit from being read freshly, without the baggage of the culture wars or the radicalism of deconstruction.", "\n\nFrye merits respect, but critical respect. ", "Though contemporary critics are often derided for their dependence on jargon, one learns by reading Frye that jargon is nothing new -- Frye peppers his works with difficult Greek terms: mythoi, dianoia, kerygmatic. ", "Frye claimed to be using a \"scientific\" method in his critical theory, and argued in The Anatomy of Criticism that there is an observable order to literature as a whole: \"just as there is an order of nature behind the natural sciences, so literature is nota piled aggregate of 'works,' but an order of words.\" ", "However, if one attempts to read his work after The Anatomy of Criticism carefully, one sees a style of writing that is more anecdotal than methodical. ", "The school of criticism called \"structuralism,\" which peaked in the mid-1960s, was in fact much closer in its method to hard science.", "\n\nThe Hopkins Guide To Literary Theory has the full text of a greatly helpful essay by Richard Stingle on the evolution of Frye's work, including summaries of the arguments of his various books as well as a detailed engagement with Frye's life-long obsession with Blake. ", "However, the best account of Frye's career can be found in the first chapter of Frank Lentricchia's After the New Criticism.", "\n\nHere let me invoke just two small points in Frye's The Secular Scripture that I have found intriguing. ", "One is a distinction Frye makes between properly religious epic and what he calls romance:\n\nThe secession of science from the mythological universe is a familiar story. ", "The separating of scientific and mythological space began theoretically with Copernicus, and effectively with Galileo. ", "By the nineteenth century scientific time had been emancipated from mythological time. ", "But in proportion as the mythological universe becomes more obviously a construct, another question arises. ", "We saw that there is no structural principle to prevent the fables of secular literature from also forming a mythology, or even a mythological universe. ", "Is it possible, then, to look at secular stories as a whole, and as forming a single biblical vision? ", "This is the question implied in the ‘secular scripture’ of my title. ", "In the chapters that follow I should like to look at fiction as a total verbal order, with the outlines of an imaginative universe in it. ", "The Bible is the epic of the creator, with God as its hero. ", "Romance is the structural core of all fiction: being directly descended from folktale, it brings us closer than any other aspect of literature to the sense of fiction, considered as a whole, as the epic of the creature, man’s vision of his own life as a quest.", "\n\nThough many have attempted to argue that romance is in some way a descendent of religious narratives, Frye makes the case that the two are really separate. ", "Frye's insistence on this separation -- which is a predecessor of the high-culture/low-culture distinction that still exists in literature today -- runs throughout The Secular Scripture, as it does through several of his other works. ", "Contrary to expectation, Frye is primarily interested in the low mode of literature, the small epic of the \"creature\" rather than the big epic of the \"creator.\" (", "A knowledge of Latin verb forms is also helpful here, for the \"creature\" derives from the past participle, suggesting it is the object of creation, in contrast to the \"creator\" who is the subject.) ", "For Frye, literature is secular not because it is written by non-believers, but because all major literary forms derive from the realm of folktales and folk culture, which predate the Church, and which have survived outside of religious institutions for millenia.", "\n\nThis interest in high (religious) narrative and popular (folk) romance leads to a second distinction, between the real world and the world of fiction and myth. ", "In the world of fiction, truth and falsehood are irrelevant. ", "What is needed is a term to describe literary mimesis, and Frye comes up with one in 'plasmatic':\n\nGreek critics distinguished verbal structures as true, false, and plastic, or more accurately plasmatic, the presenting of things as they conceivably could be. ", "Truth and falsehood are not literary categories, and are only approximately even verbal ones. ", "For the literary critic, at all events, everything in words is plasmatic, and truth and falsehood represent the directions or tendencies in which verbal structures go, or are thought to go. ", "This leads to a general distinction between serious and responsible literature on the one hand, and the trifling and fantastic on the other.", "\n\nHere what seems to be a second distinction is really another version of the first: plausible stories are seen as respectable, while fantastic tales are 'low'. ", "But isn't \"serious and responsible\" a secular analogue for 'sanctioned by the church'? ", "So what emerges is a mirror of the first break. ", "Again, one respectable (plasmatic) style of storytelling would seem to be the more valuable, but Frye's imagination leads us inevitably to the trifling and fantastic tales. ", "The latter spring without mediation from the human imagination, and Frye finds them fascinating.", "\n\nNo comments:\n\nLinks, Selected Posts\n\nAmardeep Singh, Associate Professor of English at Lehigh UniversityOn Twitter\n\nI have been working on several digital projects in Scalar. ", "All three are currently in progress as of summer 2017.", "\nOne is digital archive I am calling \"The Kiplings and India.\" ", "Working with a team of graduate research assistants, we have been building the site in Scalar here. ", "Feedback welcome; it's a work in progress.", "\n\nI have also been working on a Digital Collection called \"Claude McKay's Early Poetry (1912-1922)\" This project began as a collaborative class project called \"Harlem Echoes,\" a digital edition of Claude McKay's \"Harlem Shadows.\" ", "The new version of the project is much-expanded, including McKay's early Jamaican poetry as well as his uncollected political poetry from magazines like The Liberator and Workers Dreadnought." ]

", "You are most distinguished by your thunderous silence and your complete irrelevance. ", "Now, you have a nice, normal escape hatch in your historical ethical code or something that says after all, you are the designers and not the builders; your role is to give the people what they want. ", "Now, that’s a nice, easy way to cop out. … ", "It took a great deal of skill and creativity and imagination to build the situation of [segregated neighborhoods] we have, and it is going to take skill and imagination and creativity to change it. ", "We are going to have to have people as committed to doing the right thing, to inclusiveness, as we have in the past to exclusiveness.\"", "\n\nAs architects, designers and planners, it is an uncomfortable realization to feel even the slightest responsibility for the social inequities in our communities. ", "The disparities in quality of life indicators such as income, wealth, educational attainment, incarceration rates, health outcomes and life expectancy are all drastically skewed toward Americans who are white and against Americans of color. ", "What role could architects possibly play in this?", "\n\nFor the last decade I’ve been focused on the various ways the built environment, and architecture in particular, reinforces and contributes to social inequity. ", "I’ve primarily done this through research, teaching and exploration through practice. ", "I began my career as an architect focused on sustainability, and, like everyone else in the sustainability movement, was taught the foundational definition of sustainable development from the Brundtland Commission: \"Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.\"", "\n\nThroughout the early part of my career — after working on dozens of LEED Platinum and Gold buildings, zero-energy buildings, zero-carbon plans for entire cities, sustainability strategies for Fortune 500 companies — I came to see that what we were doing was not living up to that definition. ", "All around me, despite the amazingly high performance and sustainable projects we were creating, I saw people in my community who were struggling to obtain even the most basic needs of shelter, food, medical care and education.", "\n\nDespite the amazingly high performance and sustainable projects we were creating, I saw people in my community struggling to obtain even the most basic needs. ", "I revisited that definition and saw that what we had been doing was not meeting the needs of today. ", "At best, we have been meeting the \"wants\" of today for some, in a way that allows them and others like them to continue to pursue their \"wants\" in the future. ", "As a profession and a movement, we’ve become extremely good at delivering highly efficient, healthier and more comfortable buildings. ", "But the sustainable design movement has been so focused on pursuing those aspects of sustainability, and perfecting our collective ability to deliver them, that the achievement of those aspects has become the de facto goal in and of itself. ", "We have stopped asking ourselves, 'What is it we are really trying to sustain?'", "\n\nA critical look at the successes we’ve collectively had in the sustainable design movement over the last decade would suggest that while we are making great strides toward a healthier, carbon-free built environment, those successes are not equally available to all. ", "In fact, many of our greatest successes are quite elitist. ", "Despite our Venn diagrams and three-legged stools of people, planet and profit, we seem to have focused on the planet and profit portions of these through what I call a \"trickle-down\" equity framework.", "\n\nThe logic of trickle-down equity is this: I’m working to solve climate change, which affects everyone, and affects the poorest and least advantaged the most. ", "Therefore, my zero-energy building is very equitable. ", "Meanwhile, every day in the very same communities where our greatest sustainable buildings exist, people are struggling with issues of poverty, racism and other social injustices. ", "Unless we begin to make equity our goal, all of our successes in the sustainable design movement will only serve to sustain inequity.", "\n\nInstead of treating equity as an inevitable trickle-down benefit, or by-product of our work, we need to make it a focus. ", "What if instead of treating \"sustainability\" as the goal of every project, we made solving issues of equity the goal of every project, and \"sustainably\" was merely the way that we solved the problems?", "\n\nI often reference the racist bridges of Robert Moses to help illustrate both the potential for the built environment to contribute to these problems, and raise the question of what our role as architects, designers and planners today can be.", "\n\nRobert Moses, the infamous figure whose vision shaped the built environment of New York throughout the 1930s and into the 1970s and '80s, has been chronicled as \"the most racist human being I had ever really encountered\" by his biographer Robert Caro.", "\n\nUnless we begin to make equity our goal, all of our successes in the sustainable design movement will only serve to sustain inequity.", "\n\nIn Caro’s Pulitzer-Prize winning biography of Moses , he relays a famous story about Jones Beach and Moses’ intention to prevent poor people, particularly poor people of color, to be able to use the beach. ", "To achieve this, Moses lobbied for legislation and policies to make it uncomfortable, difficult or discouraging for people of color to access the beach. ", "But he didn’t stop there. ", "According to Caro, he built as many as 180 bridges over the main access drive that were too low for buses to pass under, because \"Legislation can always be changed. ", "It’s very hard to tear down a bridge once it’s up.\"", "\n\nLiteral, structural racism is pervasive throughout our built environment. ", "The racist ideologies of segregationists who were also the planners, architects and policymakers of the day shaped the fabric of every major urban center in the United States, from race-based zoning to red-lining practices to urban renewal projects. ", "As Young said, architects \"share the responsibility for the mess we are in, [in] terms of the white noose around the central city. ", "It didn’t just happen. ", "We didn’t just suddenly get this situation. ", "It was carefully planned.\"", "\n\nThe receptiveness to this kind of conversation has increased over the last few years, but we still have a long way to go. ", "Healing the entrenched racism of decades past is a big ask for an architect, and even if we want to do something about it, we often feel helpless. ", "In almost every conversation, I hear a similar response, \"But it isn’t in my scope of work as an architect to address these things.\"", "\n\nControlling scope creep is one of the culturally ingrained practices that architects have adopted — in part out of necessity to protect fees and time, but also in part as our \"nice, normal escape hatch\" — to alleviate our responsibility in addressing the most complicated and entrenched problems of our time.", "\n\nStill, it is true that our current definition of scope and purpose for architecture does not involve civil rights or social justice. ", "Indeed, there are still echoes of our collective \"thunderous silence and complete irrelevance\" from 1968. ", "Now, 50 years later, we could do more harm than good if we overstep and overestimate our ability to address some of these issues.", "\n\nWhat I propose is a massive change to our scope and mental framework of what it means to practice sustainable development. ", "But how?", "\n\nJust as my investigation of these issues began with sustainability, we can look to that movement and our success there for inspiration. ", "In the 1990s — before LEED, before the Living Building Challenge, before the contemporary sustainability movement — addressing climate change was not a part of an architect’s scope of work. ", "Then we began to see \"sustainable design services\" as additional services, the domain of specialty consultants and Sustainable Design Leaders at large firms. ", "Finally, just a few months ago, the AIA amended the professional code of ethics to require members to \"consider the environmental effects of their project decisions.\"", "\n\nWe have stopped asking ourselves, 'What is it we are really trying to sustain?' ", "Solving climate change has gone from not in our scope to being a requirement in less than 30 years. ", "We made this drastic shift once we realized the way that architecture contributes to the problem, and we adopted climate change as our cause. ", "As a result, we changed the entire design process, we changed our specifications, we changed our contract language, we changed our fee structures, we collectively created a new type of consulting firm focused exclusively on sustainability services, we created new job descriptions and roles, new professional credentials, created new metrics, and invented green building rating systems. ", "But that’s just within architecture. ", "We’ve also changed what is taught in schools, the way we practice engineering, how buildings are constructed, how they are financed, the way they are operated and permitted, how we write zoning policy, the way energy is produced and billed, and even how products are manufactured. ", "We changed things that are very much not in the scope or job description of an architect.", "\n\nWe changed all of those things not as an individual act of architecture, but by enrolling other advocates in their respective fields to help us. ", "We talked about climate change and the way the built environment contributes to it, and together, we changed everything.", "\n\nIt is long past time for us to do the same with social justice. ", "The built environment enables and contributes to the inequities we see in our communities, and we need to recruit sociologists, historians, community organizers, public health professionals and many others to help us reinvent everything.", "\n\nDrawing inspiration from Young yet again: \"The decent people have to learn to speak up, and you shouldn’t have to be the victim to feel for other people. … ", "An ancient Greek Scholar [once said], ‘We shall achieve victory in Athens and justice in Athens when those who are not injured are as indignant as those who are.’ ", "And so shall it be with this problem of human rights in this country.\"" ]

Then there exists some $n_1$ such that for $n > n_1, x_n \\in f^{-1}(W)$. \nThen $f(x_n) \\in W$ for $n > n_1$.\nThen choose an $n_2$ such that $d(f(x), f_n(x)) < \\dfracε2, \\forall x, \\forall n > n_2$. Such an $n_2$ exists since $f_n$ converges uniformly to $f$. (Note: $d$ is the distance function on the metric space $Y$). ", "\nTake $n_3$ to be maximum of $n_1$ and $n_2$. Then for $n > n_3$, the sequence $f_n(x_n)$ is contained within $V$ and hence, $U$. So the sequence converges to $f(x)$ since $U$ was chosen to be an arbitrary open set containing $f(x)$.\n\nA:\n\nIt's a completely valid proof which I would write differently (more formulae, fewer words): \nTake $\\varepsilon > 0$. As $f$ is continuous at $x$ (for the reasons you stated) we can find an open neighbourhood $U$ of $x$ such that \n$$\\text{ (1): } \\forall p \\in U : d(f(p) ,f(x)) < {\\varepsilon \\over 2}$$\nAnd as $x_n \\to x$, we can find $N_1 \\in \\mathbb{N}$ such that:\n$$\\text{ (2): } \\forall n \\ge N_1: x_n \\in U$$\nCombining (2) with (1) we thus have:\n$$\\text{ (2a): } \\forall n \\ge N_1: d(f(x_n), f(x)) < {\\varepsilon \\over 2}$$\nAnd by uniform convergence of $f_n$ to $f$, we can find $N_2 \\in \\mathbb{N}$ such that:\n$$\\text{ (3): } \\forall n \\ge N_2: \\forall x \\in X: d(f_n(x), f(x)) < {\\varepsilon \\over 2}$$ \nNow taking $n \\ge N_3 = \\max(N_1, N_2)$, by the triangle inequality we see:\n$$d(f_n(x_n), f(x)) \\le d(f_n(x_n), f_n(x)) + d(f_n(x), f(x)) < {\\varepsilon \\over 2} + {\\varepsilon \\over 2} = \\varepsilon$$\nbecause we can apply (2a) and (3) at the end.

[ "Introduction {#S5}\n============\n\nThe endogenous circadian system is involved in the regulation of sleep-wake behaviors as well as key metabolic pathways.^[@R1]^ Recent research has demonstrated both the timing and duration of sleep may influence risk for cardiometabolic disease.^[@R2],\\ [@R3]^ In particular, several recent studies have reported higher BMI associated with later sleep timing, independent of sleep duration.^[@R4]--[@R6]^ However, a limitation of this literature is that few studies have included biological markers of circadian timing (e.g., melatonin). ", "There are several pathways in which late sleep timing may affect weight regulation. ", "Individuals may curtail their sleep in order to meet occupational or social demands. ", "In addition, individuals with late sleep timing also may have greater barriers to engaging in healthful diet and exercise behaviors due to competing demands after work and school obligations.^[@R4],\\ [@R7]^ Another factor may be that late timing may impact weight regulation through alignment of the circadian rhythm. ", "The need to habitually sleep earlier in the circadian rhythm may lead to misalignment, which then contributes to changes in metabolism and behavior.^[@R8]^\n\nCircadian misalignment has multiple definitions, but has primarily been defined as alteration of sleep-wake timing relative to the endogenous circadian rhythm. ", "It is hypothesized that circadian rhythm misalignment among shift workers contributes to increased rates of obesity, diabetes and heart disease risk compared with non-shift workers.^[@R9]--[@R11]^ One of the primary effects of shifting the sleep period relative to the appropriate circadian time is sleep disruption, which has been well documented among shift workers.^[@R12]^ Therefore, it is difficult to tease apart the independent effects of circadian alignment versus sleep duration, particularly in real life settings. ", "Several studies have used laboratory protocols, such as forced desynchrony or simulated shift work in attempts to isolate the effects of circadian misalignment, independent of sleep duration, and have demonstrated that circadian misalignment leads to impairments in glucose metabolism and alterations in appetite stimulating hormones even after controlling for sleep timing and quality.^[@R13]--[@R17]^ However, these studies typically evaluate major misalignment, such as that seen in shift work (e.g., 8--12 hours shifted from the individual's typical overnight sleep wake schedule). ", "Circadian misalignment can also be present in more minor forms, such as jet lag from only a few time zones, or due to changing sleep timing several hours to fit social or occupational obligations from weekdays to weekends. ", "Less is known about the health effects of these minor degrees of circadian misalignment in non-shift workers.", "\n\nOne method of quantifying circadian alignment in daily life is by phase angle, which is calculated as the duration between dim light melatonin onset and sleep onset time. ", "Dim light melatonin onset (DLMO), a marker of the nocturnal rise in melatonin, is a well-accepted measure of the timing of the endogenous circadian rhythm.^[@R19]^ The relationship between the timing of melatonin and other behavioral and biological markers (e.g. sleep onset) has been called \"phase angle\" and it is thought to be an excellent marker of alignment of the behavioral rhythm or other variables with the central circadian rhythm. ", "On average, the duration between DLMO and sleep onset is 2 hours among individuals with controlled (i.e. 8 hours in bed, consistent bedtimes/wake times) and uncontrolled (i.e. self-selected) sleep schedules.^[@R20],\\ [@R21]^ Individual differences in circadian alignment have been reported based on sex^[@R22],\\ [@R23]^, age^[@R24],\\ [@R25]^ and sleep timing preference.^[@R26]^ The determinants of circadian alignment in daily life have not been extensively studied but laboratory studies suggest light exposure and the length of their endogenous circadian period play a role.^[@R18]^ Individuals with later sleep/wake timing may be at greater risk for circadian misalignment, perhaps due to a mismatch between their preferred schedule and the typical work or school schedule.^[@R27]^ Prior research has demonstrated higher depressive symptoms among individuals with sleep onset closer to DLMO (i.e. short phase angles) but these studies did not measure associations with physical health variables.^[@R28]--[@R30]^ Two studies have reported that individuals with a greater difference between sleep times on work days and free days (social jet lag) had higher BMI but did not evaluate circadian timing or alignment.^[@R2],\\ [@R31]^ Given the experimental literature linking phase alignment to metabolic outcomes, evaluating associations with circadian alignment in daily life would contribute to understanding potential mechanisms by which circadian alignment affects weight regulation in real world settings.", "\n\nThe goal of the current study was to determine the relationship between circadian timing and alignment of DLMO to sleep onset with BMI, body fat, diet and physical activity among healthy non-shift working adults. ", "We tested these relationships among healthy individuals without psychiatric or sleep disorders with habitual sleep duration of at least 6.5 hours per night in order to assess the independent contribution of circadian timing and alignment. ", "We predicted that later circadian timing would be associated with circadian alignment (i.e., sleep onset closer to melatonin onset), but effects of circadian alignment on BMI, body fat, diet and exercise behaviors would be independent of circadian timing and sleep duration.", "\n\nMethods {#S6}\n=======\n\nParticipants {#S7}\n------------\n\nMen and women were recruited from the community using flyers and web advertisements. ", "Flyers were posted specifically to recruit healthy sleepers as well as healthy \"night owls\" in order to over recruit individuals who may have circadian misalignment.

", "The senator from Vermont, who calls himself an independent but caucuses with the Democrats, is seeking to tap into popular anger over ever-rising social inequality by placing the issue at the center of his campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination.", "\n\nIn his campaign speeches, he declares that income inequality is “the great moral issue of our time” and attacks the greed of the “billionaire class,” while calling for the restoration of “the once-great American middle class.”", "\n\nSanders has been gaining on Hillary Clinton, the presumptive Democratic nominee, in key early primary states. ", "In two months, Clinton’s lead in New Hampshire has shrunk from 38 points to 8. ", "In Iowa, Sanders is currently polling at 33 percent, 19 points below Clinton. ", "The Clinton campaign, which was expected to cruise to an easy nomination, now admits that she may lose to Sanders in Iowa.", "\n\nThe Vermont senator has generally drawn larger crowds than any other announced presidential candidate. ", "A July 1 rally in Madison, Wisconsin drew 13,000 people. ", "By contrast, Clinton’s largest rally thus far, held in New York City, attracted only 5,000 people.", "\n\nSupport for Sanders is all the more significant given that anti-communism has served as the bedrock of official politics in the United States for more than 70 years. ", "From the McCarthyite witch-hunts and Hollywood blacklists of the 1950s, through the triumphalism that accompanied the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, socialism has been effectively banned from official political discourse in the United States.", "\n\nBroad layers of the population, particularly young people, are alienated and disaffected from the political establishment and its two right-wing parties of big business. ", "Voter turnout in the 2014 mid-term elections was a mere 36.3 percent, the lowest in over seven decades.", "\n\nRecent polls give an indication of the depth of this sentiment. ", "According to a Pew Survey, the portion of the voting-age population that identifies with neither of the two major parties has reached a record-high 39 percent. ", "A Gallup poll last month found that fully 47 percent of respondents were willing to vote for a socialist for president.", "\n\nMany people are looking for alternatives to the existing political and economic order, which offers nothing but inequality, war and escalating attacks on democratic rights. ", "For this reason, Sanders’ “socialism,” far from being a liability, has actually contributed to his popularity. ", "Young people, in particular, are intrigued by the prospect of a socialist presidential candidate.", "\n\nBut is Bernie Sanders really a socialist? ", "This question raises a related one: What are the basic principles of socialism?", "\n\nInternationalism: Since the publication of the Communist Manifesto in 1848, which proclaimed, “Workers of the world, unite!” ", "the socialist movement has been an international movement. ", "Engels described the International Workingmen’s Association as “the first international movement of the working class.”", "\n\nThe basic orientation of bourgeois politics is nationalism, according to which workers should identify their interests with those of the nation, which, of course, is ruled by the capitalist class. ", "To this, socialism counterposes the perspective and program of working class internationalism, stressing the identity of interests of workers of all countries, races, religions, etc., ", "who are objectively united in a common struggle against the capitalists of all countries.", "\n\nSocialism strives to unite the workers of all countries on the basis of a common revolutionary program and stresses that the struggle to put an end to capitalist exploitation and establish socialism is, by its very nature, an international struggle. ", "Socialism opposes all attempts to scapegoat or discriminate against immigrants and rejects all forms of nationalist or racial politics, which serve to divide the working class.", "\n\nBernie Sanders is not an internationalist.

[ "1. ", "Field of the Invention\nThe field of the invention generally pertains to systems and methods for controlling energy distribution at local sites.", "\n2. ", "Background\nElectrical utilities face particular challenges in meeting continuously changing customer load demands. ", "At least two related reasons exist for these challenges. ", "First, power demands can fluctuate substantially from day to day or hour to hour, making it difficult for utilities to ensure that they have enough capacity to meet demand. ", "These fluctuations in energy demand may arise from ordinary cyclic energy usage patterns (for example peaking in the afternoon), or else can result from an unexpected change in the balance between energy supply and demand, such as where, for example, a power generator linked to the power grid unexpectedly goes down, large energy users go on or off line, or a fault occurs somewhere in the distribution system.", "\nA second factor contributing to the challenges faced by power utilities is the fact that power consumption in local areas tends to grow over time, gradually placing increasing burdens on electrical utilities to meet the growing demand. ", "Because the construction of new power plants is very costly and must comply with a variety of governmental regulations, it is possible for a local or even large geographic region to find itself without the power capacity to supply its current or anticipated future demand.", "\nA major challenge for utility companies is handling peak energy demands. ", "This is because the energy supplied by power utilities must be sufficient to meet the energy demand moment by moment, and peak demands place the greatest strain on the power distribution system. ", "When energy demand outstrips available supply, disruptive events such as power blackouts, brownouts or interruptions can occur. ", "Not only can such events cause substantial inconvenience to large numbers of people and businesses, but they can also be dangerous or life-threatening—where, for example, the power supply for hospitals or critical home care medical equipment is compromised.", "\nHistorically, when power utilities serving a locality have been faced with a severe energy situation caused by high demand, their options have been extremely limited. ", "Power utilities can, for example, request that consumers conserve energy, but not all consumers follow such requests and, in any event, conservation has not tended to provide a complete solution for energy supply problems. ", "Power utilities can attempt to satisfy peak demands by purchasing available energy from a third party source connected to the power grid, but such purchases, particularly at peak demand times, can be extremely costly as energy suppliers often demand a premium when demand is high. ", "Another option is for power utilities to build additional power plants, but building power plants takes substantial time and investment, and may require approvals from state and/or federal government authorities as well as consumer associations.", "\nTo help reduce peak power demand and thus ward off costs associated with new power plants or premium energy purchases, various attempts have been made to develop load management systems which control peak demand on the power generating equipment by temporarily turning off certain customer loads when deemed necessary to avoid a blackout or similar power interruption. ", "Generally, the types of customer loads that are regulated in this manner involve non-critical electrical equipment such as air conditions, electric heaters, and the like.", "\nOne type of load management system, for example, uses ripple tone injection to send coded pulses over the utility's power lines. ", "The coded pulses may be applied to the utility power lines by way of an electromechanical ripple control transmitter, which may consist of a motor/alternator operating through thyristor static switches, or by way of a step-up transformer selectively connected to the utility power lines through a passband circuit tuned to the frequency of the coded pulse signal. ", "At the customer sites, receivers interpret the coded pulses and perform desired command functions—e.g., turning off the customer load(s).", "\nAn example of a particular system for load management is described in U.S. Pat. ", "No. ", "4,264,960. ", "As set forth in that patent, a plurality of substation injection units, under control of a master control station, transmit pulse coded signals on the utility power lines. ", "Remote receiver units positioned at customer loads control the on and off states of the loads in response to the signals received over the utility power lines from the substation injection units, by activating latchable single-pole contacts. ", "Different types of loads are organized into load control groups (e.g., electrical hot water heaters, air conditioner compressors, street lights, etc.). ", "The master control station independently controls the various different types of loads through different pulse control signals. ", "Each remote receiver unit is pre-coded so that it responds to one and only one pulse code signal. ", "In order to control different types of loads (e.g., hot water heater and air conditioning compressor) at the same location, separately encoded remote receiver units at the location are required. ", "The master control station turns load groups on and off in order to implement a load management strategy, as determined by a system operator.", "\nA variety of drawbacks or limitations exist with conventional techniques for load management in large-scale power distribution systems. ", "A major drawback is that shut-off commands from the power utility to the remote customer sites are generally propagated over the same lines that carry high-voltage electricity. ", "Because transformers are used to relay electrical signals across power lines, it can be difficult to pass data (e.g., shut-off commands or other control signals) over power lines. ", "Moreover, noise or interference can prevent proper reception of shut-off commands or other control signals. ", "Any inductance at the customer load can generate large harmonics, which can easily match the control signal frequency, thus blocking out control signals or possibly causing “false alarms.” ", "A simple household device such as an electric oven can disrupt the reception of control signals over power lines. ", "Over a large area, since all loads inject noise into the power distribution system, the cumulative interference or noise effect can be substantial. ", "Thus, using power lines to distribute control signals can be quite problematic, because of the many sources of noise and interference. ", "Sophisticated digital signal processing techniques might be used to filter out the noise or interference and reconstruct control signals, but such techniques are complicated and would generally require that a receiver be quite costly.", "\nAnother drawback with conventional techniques for load management is the lack of control either at the utility or consumer level. ", "In situations where the utility is forced to shut off power to one or more regions (e.g., by causing a rolling blackout) in order to prevent peak demand from causing a catastrophic blackout or damaging power generation or distribution equipment, power customers typically have little or no control over which loads get shed. ", "Rather, a complete shut-down of the customer's power usually occurs for those customers within a region subject to a rolling blackout. ", "Even in those situations where the utility has pre-configured the customer's wiring so that certain isolated loads (usually an air conditioner or electric water heater) can be dynamically shed at peak power times, neither the utility nor the customer can easily alter which loads get shed unless the customer's wiring is re-configured. ", "Where the customer loads are collectively grouped into different load control groups, the utility may be able to shed certain types of loads (e.g., all air conditioners) en masse, but the choice is generally made by the utility based upon its overall power demands and management strategy, with little or no control being available to the customer (other than perhaps initially giving permission to the utility to shut down a specific load, such as an air conditioning unit, before the utility pre-configures the wiring to control the specific load as part of a larger group of similar loads).", "\nAnother problem that remains insufficiently addressed by conventional load management techniques is the fact that power interruptions, brownouts or blackouts generally occur with little or no warning to power customer. ", "In some cases, where unusually large demand can be forecasted, electrical utilities have been able to provide warnings to power customers that a blackout or power interruption is likely within a certain upcoming period of time—e.g., within the next several hour period, or next 24 or 48 hour period. ", "However, power interruption or blackout warnings are typically so broad and vague in nature as to be of limited or no value to power customers, who are left with uncertainty as to whether or not their power will go out and if so, exactly when. ", "Moreover, since power interruption or blackout warnings are normally broadcast by radio or television, customers who are not tuned in by radio or television to the broadcast stations can easily miss the warnings and not realize that a power interruption or blackout is imminent.", "\nCertain power management techniques have been proposed for controlling power consumption at a specific local site (e.g., a factory), but such systems are usually isolated and operate independently of the power utility. ", "An example of one power management system is described, for example, in U.S. Pat. ", "No. ", "4,216,384. ", "According to a representative technique described therein, the various main power lines of the installation or site are monitored for energy usage, and a control circuit selectively disconnects loads when the total energy being drawn at the installation or site exceeds a specified maximum. ", "While ostensibly having the effect of reducing overall power consumption at the installation or site, a drawback of these types of power management systems is that they can be relatively complex and costly. ", "For example, the power management system described in U.S. Pat. ", "No. ", "4,216,384 utilizes a set of transformers to independently monitor various main power lines, a bank of LED-triggered Triacs to selectively engage various customer loads, programmable control circuitry, automatic priority realignment circuitry, and so on. ", "Because of their relative cost and complexity, these types of local power management systems are not very suitable for widespread use, particularly for ordinary residential use or other cost-sensitive applications. ", "Moreover, their operation is very localized in effect, and cannot be controlled from a central location such as the power utility itself.", "\nIn addition to the foregoing limitations and drawbacks, conventional power and load management strategies are limited by the available circuits and switches which are used in some applications to control actual power delivery at local sites. ", "One common type of power switch, for example, for connecting and disconnecting power sources to loads is a circuit breaker, which functions to prevent an excessive amount of current from being drawn from the power source or into the load by breaking the electrical circuit path between the source and load when the current limit is reached. ", "A typical circuit breaker has a bimetal arm through which travels a power signal from the source to the load. ", "One end of the bimetal arm is connected to the power signal line, while the other end of the bimetal arm is connected to an electrical conductor from which the power can be distributed to the load. ", "When too much current travels through the bimetal arm, the heat from the current causes the bimetal arm to deform or bend in a predictable manner, which causes the bimetal arm to break contact with the electrical conductor, resulting in a break between the power signal and the load. ", "In this manner, the source and load are both protected from currents which exceed a certain limit.", "\nWhile circuit breakers are useful for protecting against high current levels, they are generally passive circuit elements whose response depends entirely upon the amount of power being drawn by the load. ", "They typically do not provide active control of a power signal line. ", "However, some resettable circuit breakers have been proposed, which utilize, for example, a spring-operated mechanism allowing a remote operator to open and close the contacts of the circuit breaker. ", "An example of such a circuit breaker is disclosed in U.S. Pat. ", "No. ", "3,883,781 issued to J. Cotton.", "\nOther types of remotely controlled or operated circuit breakers are described, for example, in U.S. Pat. ", "No. ", "5,381,121 to Peter et al., ", "and U.S. Pat. ", "No. ", "4,625,190 to Wafer et al. ", "These circuit breakers involve rather elaborate mechanisms that, due to their complexity, would be expensive to manufacture and potentially subject to mechanical wear or failure.", "\nBesides circuit breakers, other types of circuits have been utilized in controlling power signals. ", "However, these other types of circuits have drawbacks as well. ", "For example, solid state switches (e.g., transistors or silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCRs)) can be used as switches between a power source and load, for controlling distribution of the power signal to the load. ", "However, transistors and SCRs generally have limited power ratings and, at high current levels, can become damaged or shorted. ", "Moreover, transistors or SCRs with high power ratings can be relatively expensive.", "\nIt would therefore be advantageous to provide a load management system that overcomes one or more of the foregoing problems, limitations or disadvantages. ", "It would further be advantageous to provide a load management system that gives more flexibility to power utilities and/or consumers, that is not subject to the noise and interference effects caused by transmitting data over power lines, and does not require a relatively expensive receiver. ", "It would also be advantageous to provide a load management system that uses a controllable electronic switch capable of selectively connecting or disconnecting a power source to a load and, in particular, a switch that is reliable, durable, and low-cost, and that can handle relatively high power demands, such as may be required for residential or commercial applications." ]
