Rapid Microwave–Hydrothermal Synthesis of Anatase Form of Titanium Dioxide | Pure anatase titanium dioxide was synthesized by a microwave (MW)-assisted hydrolysis of diluted acidic solutions of titanium tetrachloride. MW irradiation combined with hydrothermal process has proved to be a very efficient and fast alternative to conventional hydrothermal technique, as an almost complete crystallization of anatase occurred in reaction times as short as 30 min. The addition of small amounts of sulfuric acid was necessary to obtain a pure anatase phase, as the presence of sulfate prevented the crystallization of trace amounts of brookite. Transmission electron micrographs showed nanoparticles arranged in spherical aggregates with 1% sulfuric acid, while less aggregated nanoparticles were obtained with 0.1% sulfuric acid. | s2orc_title_abstract |

Celebrity: Stoned Fox may be a badly stuffed piece of taxidermy but that hasn't stopped him finding fame . This dazed-looking fox has a huge fan base in Russia, where the badly-stuffed creature became a surprise internet smash after he was spotted for sale on eBay. The animal - dubbed Stoned Fox thanks to his bemused expression - proved such a hit his British creator has taken him all the way to St Petersburg for locals to get a closer look. But it seems Russians are not universally fond of Stoned Fox, after local politicians in the city labelled the comical creature 'vile' and 'Russophobic'. A statement from the local branch of the Communist Party described Stoned Fox's British creator, Adele Morse, as an 'unfriendly emissary from England' and demanded that her exhibition be shut down, according to a report in the Daily Telegraph. Their suggestion that the artist 'had allowed herself to mock a great people and its history' comes after she was quoted as saying fans had told her they liked Stoned Fox because he 'looks a bit sad and drunk and that's how Russians feel'. Ms Morse, who is based in Dalston, East London, has said she was misquoted. The Welsh artist is in Russia to give a series of seminars on Stoned Fox and the thousands of internet memes he inspired. Ms Morse was inundated with pictures showing the creature pasted into a host of unlikely scenarios; from inside the Oval Office with Barack Obama, to lounging on a park bench with Hollywood actor Keanu Reeves. Ms Morse had experimented with stuffing the fox, which died of natural causes, and put the finished item on eBay. Scroll down for video .

Internet users even created Stoned Fox's tail's own Seven Year Itch moment with Marilyn Monroe thanks to Photoshop . Ms Morse is also due to meet journalists and fans to tell them about how Stoned Fox came to exist. The eBay auction which sparked the craze started bidding at £12. Ms Morse described the item as: 'a young Red Fox made to look as though it is a human. 'I usually practice traditional taxidermy but I decided to try something a little different. 'He is not perfect but he does have a lot of character. ...and the fox has also found a perch on works of art . Lady with a Stoned Fox - by a modern day Leonardo Da Vinci?

Paxman criticised huge rewards for senior staff when they leave the BBC .
Said that Radio 1 and 1Xtra had no reason to exist and could be replaced by private-sector broadcasters .
Star suggested that the bungled £100million Digital Media Initiative had caused the public to lose faith .
Claims New Broadcasting House is a 'ghastly building' | By . Alasdair Glennie . Jeremy Paxman has launched an astonishing attack on his employer the BBC, saying it is ‘smug’ and he hates much of its output. In typically scathing style, the Newsnight presenter said the severance payoff scandal at the corporation – in which senior executives were handed £60million in ‘golden goodbyes’ – had produced a ‘great smell’. And he added that the BBC’s commercial rivals are right to complain that it ‘distorts the marketplace’ with its vast, publicly funded news operation. Jeremy Paxman claimed the BBC 'distorts the marketplace' due to the size of its publicly funded news operation . Paxman said: ‘[The BBC] is smug. I love the BBC in many ways, but at the same time it has made me loathe aspects of it, and that’s a very odd state of affairs. ‘When I see people being given £1million merely for walking out of the door, when I see £100million being blown on that DMI [digital media initiative] thing, a stupid technical initiative like that, I start wondering: how much longer are we going to test the public’s patience?’ In recent months, several of Paxman’s colleagues – including John Humphrys and David Dimbleby – have openly criticised the BBC’s management. But until now the 63-year-old has been relatively restrained. The Newsnight presenter condemned the high level of pay-offs received by some senior BBC executives asking 'how much longer are we going to test the public's patience?' BBC Director General standing outside New Broadcasting House which Paxman describes as 'a ghastly building' He hit out at the size of the BBC, saying much of its content, such as its popular music stations, could be produced equally well by commercial broadcasters. He told the Guardian newspaper: ‘There’s a pile of stuff on the BBC I can’t stand. My idea of hell is going down in one of the lifts in that ghastly new building [New Broadcasting House] in a lift which has Radio 1 Extra plumbed into it. I don’t quite understand why the BBC does Radio 1 Extra. I don’t really understand why it does Radio 1. ‘Clearly, you can meet those needs commercially. The BBC has got an unfortunate history of never seeing an area of broadcasting – or, increasingly, a web presence – without feeling the need to get into it itself.’ Paxman said the BBC was 'smug' and he hated much of its output . Paxman questioned the continuing existence of channels such as BBC Radio 1 featuring DJ Nick Grimshaw (right) pictured alongside pop stars Paolo Nutini (left) and Rita Ora (centre) Paxman claimed 'The BBC has got an unfortunate history of never seeing an area of broadcasting - or, increasingly a web presence - without feeling need to get into it itself' And he accused the BBC of using the licence fee to undermine its commercial rivals. There is growing anger over how the corporation is able to challenge the country’s Press through its publicly funded news websites. Home Secretary Theresa May said last year that the BBC was ‘destroying local newspapers’. Paxman said his idea of hell was 'going down in one of the lifts in that hastly new building [New Broadcasting House] in a lift which has Radio 1 Extra plumbed into it' Paxman said it was understandable that rival news organisations such as the Daily Mail dislike the fact the BBC is able to compete on ‘unfair terms’. He added: ‘There’s no argument that the BBC distorts the marketplace in online [news]. And I don’t think that has been really sufficiently grasped at a senior level. ‘It just happened, in the same way as has the proliferation of extra television channels, the proliferation of extra radio channels – and, going further back, the move into local radio. ‘These things just happened because the BBC is institutionally unable to countenance something without wanting to have it for itself.’ Paxman was equally cutting about the recent payoff scandal. He said: ‘I don’t tar [director general] Tony Hall with this because he hasn’t been there long enough, but the great smell that comes off those payoff scandals – and I think they are scandals – is of an organisation which became complacent, preoccupied with the conditions of its senior staff, at the expense of a strategic vision.’ Earlier this year, Radio 4 presenter Humphrys said the BBC was ‘grotesquely over managed’ and has a ‘broadly liberal’ bias. Dimbleby said the BBC was ‘too big for its own good’. Last year, BBC Director of Television Danny Cohen warned its stars to stop attacking the corporation in public. He said: ‘I’m finding a little too often that people who work for the BBC and are well rewarded for it are quick to attack or criticise the organisation.’ | cnn |

Katie Maytum, of Maesteg, South Wales, is suing Welsh NHS for £750,000 .
Mother, now aged 35, claims surgeons ignored official cancer guidelines .
Says she was forced to wait 5.5 months before being seen by specialist . | A dying mother was forced to wait almost six months before seeing a cancer specialist - when a surgeon downgraded her case because she was aged under 35, a court heard today. Katie Maytum, now 35, of Maesteg, South Wales, is suing the Welsh NHS for £750,000, claiming surgeons ignored official cancer guidelines - robbing her of seeing her children grow up. The mother-of-two, who has terminal breast cancer, told the High Court in Cardiff that she was forced to wait five and half months before being seen by a specialist because of her age. Dying mother: Katie Maytum (left), 35, of Maesteg, is suing the Welsh NHS for £750,000. Surgeon Vummiti Murali-Krishnan (right) classed the case as not one of 'urgent suspected cancer' - because she was under 35 . Three breast cancer surgeons at the Princess of Wales Hospital in Bridgend, South Wales, went against national guidelines of treating all lumps in women over 30 as urgent, the hearing was told. Miss Maytum was aged 31 when she went to her local GP after noticing a lump in her left breast. She told the court today: ‘I couldn’t but think that there was cancer inside my body. ‘I know the feeling of a cyst and this was a hard lump which got bigger. It started off as a lump the size of a pea and continued through my menstrual cycle and continued afterwards. ‘I went to my GP as I was concerned with my family history - my grandmother and great aunts all had breast cancer.’ Her GP was so worried he faxed an ‘urgent referral’ form to the South West Wales Cancer Network - which brings together groups involved in planning, commissioning and provision of cancer care. But when surgeon Vummiti Murali-Krishnan received the referral form he downgraded her to ‘routine’ and classed the case as not one of ‘urgent suspected cancer’ - because she was under 35. Government guidelines state any woman aged 30 or older with a discrete lump which has persisted after her period should receive an urgent referral and be seen by a specialist within two weeks. In Wales this means Miss Maytum should have seen a specialist and had surgery to remove the tumour within two months. Treatment: Three breast cancer surgeons at the Princess of Wales Hospital (above) in Bridgend, South Wales, went against national guidelines of treating all lumps in women over 30 as urgent, the hearing was told . But because she had been downgraded to a routine referral she had to wait five and a half months to see a specialist, with the tumour growing in her breast and spreading through her body. An ultrasound scan performed on the day she finally saw the specialist confirmed her fears that she had cancer. She underwent surgery and lengthy chemotherapy and was cancer for free for several years until a lump appeared in her neck in April this year and she was told by doctors she had only 18 months to live. Miss Maytum told the hearing: ‘Standing or sitting for long periods of time is uncomfortable because of the cancer in my pelvis, spine and lower back. ‘It’s hard cleaning the house or lifting my youngest son. I receive a lot of help from my partner and mother-in law - they help with the children and cleaning.’ Nigel Poole QC, representing Miss Maytum, told the hearing that medical experts were in ‘broad agreement’ that a woman of her age would have had a 90 per cent chance of surviving more than 10 years with urgent treatment. He said: ‘That is what oncologists would regard as being cured. In the five and half month wait for treatment her chances of survival fell to between 70 and 80 per cent.’ Terminal cancer: Miss Maytum (pictured) is due to marry her partner next month and her children Megan and Zac will be by her side at the service . Miss Maytum is due to marry her partner next month and her children Megan, 14, and Zac, 10, will be by her side at the service. The mother, who was training to be a nurse when she was diagnosed as terminal, has been given 18 months to live. Miss Maytum is suing the Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University Health Board claiming Mr Murali-Krishnan was negligent in downgrading her case to routine. Miss Maytum’s damages claim includes the ‘loss of unquantifiable services of a wife and mother’. These include £7,500 a year from April 2017 to April 2027, when her son Zac will be 21, to cover the cost of a nanny for 20 hours a week at £6.93 an hour. Mr Murali-Krishnan denies the accusation of negligence and said it was ‘reasonable’ to downgrade her case with the information he was given. He said because of the aggressive form of cancer Miss Maytum suffers from, the delay in her treatment has made no difference to her eventual terminal illness. He admits negligence in failing to tell her GP about the downgrading of her case and in not arranging for her case to be reviewed within three months. The court hearing was told Mr Murali-Krishnan and two other surgeons at the hospital have now changed their policy to meet national guidelines. It also heard that Miss Maytum would have been seen within two weeks if she had lived in England rather than in Wales. Mr Poole told Mr Murali-Krishnan: ‘A woman of Miss Maytum’s age with a discrete breast lump which had persisted for six weeks, referred on an urgent basis by her GP - certainly in England, that woman would expect to be seen in two weeks. ‘But at your hospital it was five-and-a-half months and you were happy for her to wait this long with a lump in her breast.’ Mr Murali-Krishnan said: ‘This is a hospital policy which I have to follow.’ The surgeon told the hearing he ‘definitely’ would have changed the referral back to urgent if he had received a letter or telephone call from the GP who initially referred her saying how concerned he was. But the hearing has been told Miss Maytum’s GP was never made aware his patient had been downgraded against all national guidelines. The hearing continues.

This study investigated individual differences in the ability to automatically access simple addition and multiplication facts from memory. It employed a target-naming task and a priming procedure similar to that utilised in the single word semantic-priming paradigm. In each trial, participants were first presented with a single digit arithmetic problem (e.g., 6+8) and were then presented with a target that was either congruent (e.g., 14) or incongruent (e.g., 17) with this prime. Response times for congruent and incongruent conditions were then compared to a neutral condition (e.g., X+Y, with target 14). For the high skilled group, significant facilitation in naming congruent multiplication and addition targets was found at SOAs of 300 and 1000 ms. In contrast, for the low skilled group, facilitation in naming congruent targets was only observed at 1000 ms. Significant inhibition in naming incongruent multiplication and addition targets at 300 ms, and addition targets at 1000 ms, was found for the high s... | Most research investigating how the cognitive system deals with arithmetic has focused on the processing of two addends. Arithmetic that involves more addends has specific cognitive demands such as the need to compute and hold the intermediate sum. This study examines the intermediate sums activations in intentional and automatic calculations. Experiment 1 included addition problems containing three operands. Participants were asked to calculate the sum and to remember the digits that appeared in the problem. The results revealed an interference effect in which it was hard to identify that the digit representing the intermediate sum was not actually one of the operands. Experiment 2, further examined if the intermediate sum is activated automatically when a task does not require calculation. Here, participants were presented with a prime of an addition problem followed by a target number. The task was to determine whether the target number is odd or even, while ignoring the addition problem in the prime. The results suggested that the intermediate sum of the addition problem in the prime was activated automatically and facilitated the target. Overall, the implications of those findings in the context of theories that relate to cognitive mathematical calculation is further discussed. | s2orc_abstract_citation |

Forecasting with DSGE Models: The Role of Nonlinearities | This paper studies whether the out-of-sample forecasting performance of a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model improves by taking its nonlinear rather than its linear approximation to the data. We address this question within a New Keynesian monetary economy, considering both environments of simulated and real data. Precisely, we estimate our model based on its linear respectively quadratic approximate solution, generate out-of-sample forecasts for three observables (output, inflation, and the nominal interest rate), and compare the quality of forecasts by several statistical measures of accuracy. We find that the value of nonlinearities in terms of predictive power depends crucially on whether the model is well specified. For simulated data, the nonlinear model indeed forecasts noticeably better as compared to its linearized counterpart, whereas for real data, we find no substantial differences in predictive abilities. | s2orc_title_abstract |

how many members of the brighton unitarian church were expelled in 1793 | Brighton Unitarian Church Baptists with Calvinist views had been established in Brighton since the 18th century. A rift developed from 1791, when William Stevens, a newcomer, introduced Universalist views. In 1793 or 1795, Stevens and 18 others (including the original pastor) were expelled. From 1797, a small but steadily growing congregation met at Stevens' house; by 1806 they had moved to a small chapel in Jew Street, near the Baptists' meeting place in Bond Street. A Unitarian missionary popularised the theology among the congregation, and assistance from the leader of the Unitarian community in nearby Ditchling, John Chatfield, enabled a meeting room to | paq |

Manganese cations increase the mutation rate of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 ex vivo | Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) reverse transcription is an error-prone process with an overall mutation rate of approximately 3.4 x 10(-5) per base per replication cycle. This rate can be modulated by changes in different components of the retrotranscription reaction. In particular, in vitro substitution of magnesium cations (Mg2+) by manganese cations (Mn2+) has been shown to increase misincorporation of deoxynucleotide triphosphates (dNTPs) and to alter substrate specificity. Here, it is shown that Mn2+ also increases the HIV mutation rate ex vivo. Treatment of permissive cells with Mn2+ and subsequent HIV infection resulted in at least 6-fold and 10-fold increases in the mutant and mutation frequencies respectively, thus illustrating a further example of how to influence HIV genetic variation. | s2orc_title_abstract |

Structural damage detection with wavelet support vector machine: introduction and applications | Based on wavelet packet decomposition and conditions of the support vector kernel function, a non-linear wavelet basis is introduced to construct the kernel function of support vector machine (SVM), and a tighten wavelet support vector machine (WSVM), which has strong generalization ability is obtained. Wavelet packet decomposition is applied to the structural response signals under ambient vibration, feature vectors are obtained by feature extraction according to wavelet energy spectrum. The feature vectors are used for training and classification as the inputs of the tighten SVM. Hence, a new structural damage detection method called complete WSVM is established. This method is used to a single-layer spherical lattice dome for damage detection. The structural damage location and degree can be detected and classified, and the result is highly accurate. This approach has some advantages, such as engineering oriented, low cost and convenient. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. | s2orc_title_abstract |

Frisell with Elvin Holland on Bass and Dave Jones on Drums | Who are Elvin Holland and Dave Jones you ask? I don't know either, but Bill Frisell might as well have hired them for this date. This CD is plain awful, and should have remained in the can. Virtually none of the personality of Holland and Jones comes through, and Frisell tries to adapt his old tunes to this ensemble but fails miserably. Likely he just played the heads or melodies for Holland and Jones, and said "Let's play, and see what happens." Unfortunately, nothing happens. At all. To show how much heart was put into this, just listen to the last track where Elvin keeps playing after the song is done. Either he didn't know how the tune went, or he was just bored to tears playing vamps all day long. Since I was bored to tears, I assume the latter. | amazon_reviews |

A Disappearing Splenic Tumor on CT and MRI-A Case Report of Splenic Hamartoma | A 51-year-old lady presented to our hospital due to obscure abdominal dull pain. Ultrasonographic study during physical checkup revealed a hypoechoic mass located in the central part of the spleen, but the lesion could not be detected by computed tomography (CT), or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We performed laparoscopic splenectomy for removal of the tumor because it was hard to determine whether it was a malignant lesion. Pathology showed splenic hamartoma (SH). We concluded that splenic hamartoma should be included in the differential diagnosis of ultrasonographic lesions of the spleen not detected by CT or MRI. | s2orc_title_abstract |

U.S. Apology Over Qurans Fails To Stop Afghan Riots | President Obama apologized in a letter and Afghan President Hamid Karzai appealed for calm. But that was not enough to keep Afghans from protesting violently for a third day following word that several copies of the Muslim holy book, the Quran, were burned at a large NATO base outside Kabul. The latest incident resembled other cases in recent years, where rumors that a Quran was desecrated — even thousands of miles away in Florida or Guantanamo Bay — ignited deadly riots in Afghanistan. This time American officials acknowledged the desecrations took place. They say U.S. soldiers accidentally burned several Qurans along with what was considered radical religious materials. Two Americans Killed Meanwhile, the Taliban called for attacks on Western troops and any Afghan who works with them. At least one Afghan soldier seemed to heed the message, killing two American troops in the east of the country. Haji Mohammad Hassan, a district governor from the eastern province of Nangarhar, said about 500 people were protesting outside a joint American-Afghan military base. Without warning, an Afghan army soldier turned his gun on the Americans, killing two of them. Hassan said several protesters were killed and wounded in the ensuing firefight, but the Afghan soldier escaped into the crowd. It's the latest in a series of recent incidents where Afghan soldiers killed their NATO trainers, but this one appeared to be directly related to the Quran incident. Taliban Urge Attacks Even before Taliban statements encouraging Afghans to rise up against foreign troops in the country, angry mobs clashed with Afghan police in half-a-dozen provinces. Abdel Satar Barez, deputy governor of western Faryab province, said a peaceful protest by clerics gave way to a mob of 400 that set fire to cars belonging to Afghan civilians who work at a NATO base. By Thursday evening, Karzai had received the formal apology from Obama and released a statement appealing for calm. Afghan and U.S. forces are bracing for the possibility of another day of anger and violence. At Friday prayers, clerics often deliver political as well as religious messages. Even some members of the Afghan parliament have called for a holy war against Americans because of the incident. The commander of American forces has announced that all soldiers will receive training on how to respect religious items. But many Afghans are wondering, after 10 years and several similar riots in the past, how such a mistake could have occurred. | npr |
