Detroit Struggles to Overcome Urban Blight | This week, Detroit is launching a new crackdown on one of the city's ugliest problems -- urban blight. A new city department will aggressively pursue building owners for code violations, in an attempt to clean up a pockmarked urban landscape unlike any other in America. For decades, whites and middle-class blacks have left the Motor City for the suburbs. Left behind are thousands of crumbling homes and buildings, a sight that's become a symbol of Detroit's economic decline. The city has demolished some of these buildings. In some cases, entire blocks have only one or two homes still standing. But some 15,000 more remain -- and not everyone agrees that bulldozing is the best solution.

The Restoration of Latin America's Access to Voluntary Capital Market Financing: Developments and Prospects | After a prolonged and almost total reliance on debt restructurings and concerted new money facilities, several Latin American countries have, over the last two years, mobilized voluntary financing from international capital markets. Although the phenomenon is still relatively limited in terms of volume and number of borrowers, it has nevertheless attracted considerable attention. The paper reviews the nature, magnitude and terms of the market re-entry process and, by drawing upon recent country experiences, analyzes the factors that have facilitated it. This provides the basis for a discussion of the key elements affecting the short-term prospects for Latin American private and public sector voluntary debt and equity financing from international capital markets. | s2orc_title_abstract |

I have to say the cover art and the whole MC romance thing caught me to begin with but I fell so in love with Mags' strength and Lachlan's struggle.

Yadda yada yada she stops and gets banged up and almost killed by a storm when a sexy SCOTTISH (*swoon*) firefighter and MC brother saves her. Cue the romantic sigh. This book doesn't play out at all what you think it will, it is slow and steady and constant with fights and turmoil and little pieces unfolding. I didn't think I needed that kind of heartache in my life right now but you know what? I was wrong. This book is everything. Read it, and most importantly when you see the playlist at the end and cry a little because it is so bloody perfect....know you made the best choice to read it. Good job Binx! | amazon_reviews |
William Bedloe | William Bedloe (20 April 165020 August 1680) was an English fraudster and Popish Plot informer.
Life
He was born at Chepstow in Monmouthshire. He was probably the son of Isaac Bedloe, himself the son of an Irish Army officer, and a cousin of William Kemys (or Kemish), who became High Sheriff of Monmouthshire in 1678. He appears to have been well educated; he was certainly clever, and after moving to London in 1670 he became acquainted with some Jesuits and was occasionally employed by them. Calling himself now Captain Williams, now Lord Gerard or Lord Newport or Lord Cornwallis, he travelled from one part of Europe to another, usually accompanied by his brother James. In the 1670s he was imprisoned for fraud and became an expert in a number of criminal enterprises. The historian John Kenyon described him as "an experienced member of a London underworld of crime and vice of which we know almost nothing".
Then in 1678, following the lead of Titus Oates, he gave an account of a supposed Popish Plot to the English government, and his version of the details of the murder of Sir Edmund Berry Godfrey was rewarded with £500. Kenyon concluded that while Bedloe probably had no direct knowledge about Godfrey's murder, he had learned enough about it from his extensive contacts in the criminal underworld to tell a convincing story. His record as a confidence trickster was so notorious that he chose to dwell on it, explaining that it was his career as a criminal which enabled him to give first-hand evidence about the plotters. While some government officials, like Henry Coventry, were wary of relying on the testimony of such a notorious criminal, the general view was that he was too valuable as a corroborative witness to Oates to be disregarded. However, his testimony was usually of little value, apart from during the trial of Berry, Green and Hill for Godfrey's murder, of which he may have had some personal knowledge: as a witness he was rambling and incoherent, and had a habit of dragging in irrelevant grievances and private feuds.
At most of the Popish Plot trials, like that of Edward Colman, his evidence was so weak that the Court disregarded it.
Emboldened by his success he denounced various Roman Catholics, married an Irish woman named Anna Purefoy, and having become very popular lived in luxurious fashion. Afterwards his fortunes waned, and he died at Bristol on 20 August 1680. His dying depositions, which were taken by Sir Francis North, Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, revealed nothing of importance.
Bedloe wrote a Narrative and impartial discovery of the horrid Popish Plot (1679), but all his statements are considered untrustworthy.
Lady Worcester, whose husband was an indirect target of Bedloe's accusations called him "a man whose whole life has been pageantry and villainy and whose word would not have been taken at sixpence".
John Jeffreys, MP for Brecon and later Master of the Royal Hospital Kilmainham, who knew Bedloe personally, also denounced him as a villain. At Oates's trial for perjury, some years after Bedloe's death, Lord Chief Justice Jeffreys, who had condemned innocent men on Bedloe's evidence, called him the "infamous Bedloe".

METABOLIC PATTERNS OF STEROID BIOSYNTHESIS IN YOUNG AND AGED HUMAN TESTES. | Abstract Fresh testis tissue from a 16-year-old accident victim and a 61-year-old prostatic cancer patient were incubated with 5-[4-14C]pregnenolone and 17α-hydroxy[4-14C]-progesterone as substrates. From a consideration of both the qualitative and quantitative aspects of the array of steroid conversion products, it has been concluded that a deficiency in the desmolase (steroid 17α-hydroxy-20-carbonyl cleavage enzyme) activity in the testis tissue, as compared to the young, may be responsible for the reduced testosteron secretion in advanced age in the human male. | s2orc_title_abstract |

Fracture is the clinical outcome of concern in osteoporosis, a disease variably defined over the last 30 years, mostly in terms of bone mineral density (BMD). However, an 'osseocentric' view of the condition may have hampered our understanding of how best to identify patients at the greatest risk of fragility fracture. More recently, the identification of a number of clinical risk factors for fragility fracture and the creation of fracture risk assessment tools, such as FRAX®, QFracture and Garvan have helped in a move towards clinically useful definitions, using the common currency of 10-year major osteoporotic and 10-year hip fracture risks. However, there are a large number of available fracture risk assessment tools and there remain few validation studies comparing their performance. The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence has recently advocated the use of these methods in case finding and studies are underway in their clinical application. It seems likely that the operational definition of osteoporosis must now include fracture risk, which will never replace fracture incidence as a measure of clinical efficacy but may be used in future studies to define patient groups likely to benefit from intervention. We still need to understand more about the performance of these tools, particularly in the context of specific patient groups, such as those with vertebral osteoporosis, the frail, those who fall and patients with secondary osteoporosis. | More than half of older women who sustain a fragility fracture do not have osteoporosis by World Health Organization (WHO) bone mineral density (BMD) criteria; and, while BMD has been used to assess fracture risk for over 30 years, a range of other skeletal and nonskeletal clinical risk factors (CRFs) for fracture have been recognized. More than 30 assessment tools using CRFs have been developed, some predicting fracture risk and others low BMD alone. Recent systematic reviews have reported that many tools have not been validated against fracture incidence, and that the complexity of tools and the number of CRFs included do not ensure best performance with poor assessment of (internal or comparative) validity. Internationally, FRAX® is the most commonly recommended tool, in addition to QFracture in the UK, The Canadian Association of Radiologists and Osteoporosis Canada (CAROC) tool in Canada and Garvan in Australia. All tools estimate standard 10-year risk of major osteoporotic and 10-year risk of hip fracture: FRAX® is able to estimate fracture risk either with or without BMD, but CAROC and Garvan both require BMD and QFracture does not. The best evidence for the utility of these tools is in case finding but there may be future prospects for the use of 10-year fracture risk as a common currency with reference to the benefits of treatment, whether pharmacological or lifestyle. The use of this metric is important in supporting health economic analyses. However, further calibration studies will be needed to prove that the tools are robust and that their estimates can be used in supporting treatment decisions, independent of BMD. | s2orc_abstract_citation |

Benjamin Woolfield Mountfort, 1825-1898 | Benjamin Woolfield Mountfort was one of New Zealand’s most pre-eminent architects in the nineteenth century. He designed many important public buildings in Christchurch and was responsible for the adoption of the Gothic Revival style which characterised the city. This page gives background information on his life and works.
British beginnings
Mountfort was born on 13 March 1825. He grew up in Birmingham, England, and studied architecture with Richard Cromwell Carpenter. Carpenter was an important member of the Gothic Revival movement and was a strong influence on Mountfort’s architectural style.
Arriving in Canterbury
On 20 August 1850, Mountfort married Emily Newman. He travelled with his new wife on board the Charlotte Jane to Canterbury, arriving on 16 December 1850.
His first design in New Zealand was for the Church of the Most Holy Trinity in Lyttelton. Unfortunately, unseasoned (not fully dried) timber was used, and after strong winds had buffeted it, it was decided that the church was not safe and it was demolished in 1857. This incident did not help Mountfort’s career at first, although it was his knowledge of local timber and conditions that was the problem, not his skill as an architect. Until 1859 he ran a bookshop and worked as a drawing teacher. In that time he designed two more churches.
Architect to the province of Canterbury
By 1857 Mountfort and his partner and brother-in-law, Isaac Luck, had become architects to the province of Canterbury. Together they designed the new Canterbury Provincial Council Buildings, built between 1858-1865. The stone chamber (built in 1865) is thought of as the most important example of Mountfort’s work.
Gothic Revival A style of architecture popular in the nineteenth century. It was based on a return to the medieval look of pointed arches, steeply pitched roofs with gables, spires and other decoration. It was supposed to combine usefulness with design, with no additions such as windows, unless they were really needed, rather than just for the look of the building. It was regarded as the best architectural style for English colonies where there was no strong local architecture, and where the English Church was to have an important influence.
When the construction of ChristChurch Cathedral began in 1863, the English architect, George Gilbert Scott, recommended Mountfort for the job of supervising architect (looking after the day-to-day work on the building site). The Cathedral Commission insisted on an architect from England instead. After the building had been delayed because of money problems, Mountfort was made supervising architect when work finally started again in 1873.
New Zealand’s leading church architect
Other buildings designed by Mountfort were the Canterbury Museum (1869-1882), Canterbury College (now the Arts Centre), which included the clock-tower block (1877) and the Great Hall (1882). Nowhere else in New Zealand has there been a collection of public buildings in the Gothic Revival style.
He was elected president of the Canterbury Association of Architects when it was formed in 1872. By the 1880s Mountfort was recognised as the country’s leading church architect, with the design of over forty churches to his name.
Benjamin Mountfort died on 15 March 1898, in Christchurch.
Status of Mountfort’s buildings post-quakes
Several of the buildings designed by Mountfort were damaged in the earthquakes of 2010 and 2011. The status of some of his most well-known buildings is listed below:
Information about Mountfort-designed buildings belonging to the Christchurch City Council can be found in its Facilities Rebuild Plan.

What does Reddit feel about comics retrieved via torrent sites as means of "damage control"? | Hey. I've been a comic book collector for almost 20 years, and through the years I've had alot of regrettable issues/tpb/hc i wish i never bought in the first place. Economically and logistically, its become a problem ("where do i store them?" "How do i dispose of them?" "The sight of regret") So recently I've devised a way of how to minimize this problem by simply reserving the actual comic through my LCS's pull list, and at the same time downloading the torrent file the same day and read it through my tab/desktop. If I like it...i buy the actual issue.
Since then, I've been happy with ALL my "actual" pull lists. I feel protected when i check out an issue before actually buying it. Does anyone else do this?
I know if could check an online review on it or borrow a copy from a friend. But sometimes these options are not viable.
I understand torrenting/piracy is abhorred and is a sensitive issue especially for those who feel strongly about readership support to the artistic team, but i'm opening this discussion precisely because of the debatable pros and cons. | reddit_title_body |

The only issue I had with this book was that after I read it-----I wanted to read it over again and again. I wish I had this when I first attended the Con' at San Diego and in Phoenix.
A great gift idea for anyone you know will be attending a 'Con or has always wanted to know. You will want to be going the next day after you read this great guidebook. | amazon_reviews |

The microstructure of a Co38Ni33Al29 ferromagnetic shape memory alloy was determined by conventional transmission electron microscopy (TEM), electron diffraction studies together with advanced microscopy techniques and in situ Lorentz microscopy. Rod-like precipitates, 10–60 nm long, of hexagonal close-packed epsilon (Porson)-Co were confirmed to be present by high-resolution TEM. The orientation relationship between the precipitates and B2 matrix is described by the Burgers orientation relationship. The crystal structure of the martensite obtained after cooling is tetragonal L10 with a (1–11) twinning plane. The magnetic domain structure was determined during an in situ cooling experiment using the Fresnel mode of Lorentz microscopy. While transformation proceeds from B2 austenite to L10 martensite, new domains are nucleated, leading to a decrease in domain width, with the magnetization lying predominantly along a single direction. It was possible to completely describe the relationship between magnetic domains and crystallographic directions in the austenite phase though complications existed for the martensite phase. | Abstract Magnetic domain structure of magnetic shape memory alloy was observed using backscattered electron detector in scanning electron microscope and using Fresnel imaging in transmission electron microscope. The sample subjected to additional ion polishing allowed observation of the contrast associated with the magnetic structure of the material under conditions that exclude the use of Foucault or Fresnel transmission electron microscopy imaging. The additional research conducted using atomic force microscopy showed a significant relationship between the method of preparation and the magnetic shape memory alloy sample surface. | s2orc_abstract_citation |

1. People have no weapons, only their bodies.
2. People can't enter the tank from the outside.
3. The tank has unlimited ammunition and gas.
4. Once all the people are dead they lose or if the tank becomes immobile it loses.

Danish Government is prepared to lecture Reinfeldt | Translation by Google:
>In Denmark, there is currently great concern about the giant focus on increased immigration launced by Fredrik Reinfeldt during the election campaign. The concern is so great that the Danish Social Democratic Attorney General Karen Hækkerup is considering to berate the government of Sweden and explain to that the Swedish immigration initiative is unsustainable.
>Danish politicians are especially concerned that the immigrants allowed into Sweden will seek to move to Denmark, and become a burden on the Danish society.
>- It's not like the coffers are wide open for those Swedes who come to Denmark, and if it would appear that there is a kind of welfare tourism, we must of course talk to the Swedes and find a solution, says Hækkerup to the newspaper Berlingske.
>While she is trying to be cautious in their statements she makes it clear that the Swedish immigration policy isn't sustainable.
>- I think I have to be careful what I as a minister in the Danish government says about Sweden's immigration policy, but I would just like to say that the government will never allow something like that to happen here at home, because I do not believe that a country of our size will be able to integrate so many people in such a short time and it would be guaranteed to threaten the cohesion of Denmark, she says.
>Danish People's Party's, Søren Espersen believes that the Danish government must act urgently and try to put a stop to the Swedish immigration initiative because he believes that immigration policy in Sweden is not only a Swedish affair.
>- All the Syrians who come to Sweden as refugees become Swedish citizens within a few years. And with the agreements we have here in the North, there is nothing to prevent the move directly and settle in Denmark, if they want to - without having a Danish residence permit - and thereby getting cash benefits from day one.
>There is a great danger, he says. In Denmark, the broad political consensus that the Swedish immigration policy is extreme.
>Even the Radical Liberal Party believes that Reinfeldt's focus on increased immigration goes too far. - We stand behind the improvements made on asylum and immigration. With that said, we have no plans to go in the footsteps of Sweden, says the party's group leader Camilla Hersom. Far in his criticism goes the conservative politician Rasmus Jarlöv, local politicians in Copenhagen, calling the Swedish immigration policy "Swedish refugee suicide."
>"If the Swedes believe that consideration of the refugees should be over according to their own country, so it's okay. If they are so keen to cease to be a strong country that can make a positive difference in the world because they prefer to destroy their community with a self-destructive refugee policy, so no one can stop them from it, "he writes sarcastically on his blog.

Marketing issue with Drake Interplanetary Ships | So,
I really *really* want a Cutlass. I'm a wanderer of the grey-area teetering toward the piratical side of things, always have been in these kinds of games and a Cutlass is just natural a great choice for my play style. However, I've noticed something that is rather troubling.
Drake Interplanetary has been described as a company that puts out cheap, utilitarian ships. Where Origin produces BMWs, Anvil making Hummers, Drake is putting out the Hondas. Even interviews the Cutlass has been colorfully described by the Devs as reliable, but not of the same quality as the 300 series or the Constellation and that was kind of ship the Drake was known for making. So the question has to be asked, why then is the only way to get the Cutlass through a $100 package?
Im not a marketing expert, nor do I know just how well or how poorly its going to perform, but what really turns me off from it is the price tag to attain it. Why would I spend so much on a ship that has only been dismissed as the intermediate, econo-car of the starcitizen universe? I'm trying to build a computer and the cutlass is the only ship I'm really considering pledging for - yet I can't justify it.
Is there some information I missed? Is there other stuff on this ship coming out soon? | reddit_title_body |
Based on the input-output data from blocks of fields in Linan where Hickory ecological management is done first,this paper analyzed the Input-Output Status and the influencing factors and their impact degree on farmer's willingness.The results shows that there is a negative impact on benefits of Hickory ecological management during a short period;the farmers have higher recognition on Hickory ecological management in experiment regions,which shows that they already have a clearer understanding about the long-term comprehensive benefits of Hickory ecological management that has achieved some success;The main factors are family income level,head of the household characteristics,education and training.Finally,we discussed how to improve the promoting efficiency of Hickory ecological management in depth. | Hickory plantations play an important role in improving local farmers’ economic conditions, but extreme drought in July–August 2013 seriously influenced hickory nut production. It is necessary to understand the extent and magnitude of this drought-induced hickory disturbance through mapping its spatial distribution using remote sensing data. This paper proposes a new approach to examine hickory disturbance based on multitemporal Landsat imagery. Ratios of green vegetation to soil fractions were calculated, in which the green vegetation and soil fractions were extracted from Landsat multispectral imagery using the linear spectral mixture analysis approach. We used the differences between before-drought and after-drought ratios to detect hickory disturbances. Four disturbance levels—non-disturbance, light, medium, and severe—were grouped according to the field survey data. The spatial distribution of these four levels was developed using the ratio-based approach. The result indicates that this approach is effective to detect drought-induced hickory disturbance and may be transferred to detect other kinds of disturbances, such as forest disease and selective logging. Cautions should be taken to properly select image acquisition dates and the change detection period, in addition to the approach itself. | s2orc_abstract_citation |

Well conceived administrative procedures must be considered the backbone of a good, strong aeromedical evacuation system. These procedures must insure 1) centralized control of patient transportation by aircraft, 2) specialized medical attendants and equipment for inflight medical care, 3) facilities for limited medical care of patients entering, en route in, or leaving the system, and 4) communications with destination and enroute medical facilities concerning patient transportation. There are no absolute contraindications to aeromedical evacuation. However, patients with the following conditions require special consideration. Such conditions are 1) severe anemia, less than 2.5 million RBC/cc or less than 7.0 g hemoglobin/100 ml, 2) respiratory embarrassment, and 3) trapped gas within any of the body cavities. Medical problems in aeromedical evacuation defy resolution only when patient preparation has been improper. When the patient is properly evaluated, then unnecessary, costly, hazardous, and special flights are avoided. Aeromedical evacuation presents no problem so long as one remembers that man is adapted for life at or near sea level and that changes in pressure with increasing altitude affect his physiological processes. This invisible barrier will continue to challenge human ingenuity in the conquest of high altitude. | INTRODUCTION ::: Military aeromedical evacuation, especially that associated with the present Middle East conflict, is seeing increasing research. This ecological study initiates research into the validating flight surgeon by looking at cabin altitude restriction (CAR), arguably the validating flight surgeon's prescription with the highest patient-mission impact, and its association with postflight complications. ::: ::: ::: METHODS ::: CAR rates from January 2006 through February 2008 were determined from the U.S. Transportation Command Regulating and Command and Control Evacuation System database. Postflight complication rates-the rate of patients with postflight complications (PFC) and the postflight complications per 100 patients (PFC-100)-from January 2007 through June 2008 were calculated from the Landstuhl Regional Medical Center trauma database. CAR and complication rates were examined before, during, and after the authors' deployment. In addition, the relationship between CAR and postflight complication rates was investigated; as the rates were nonlinear, a Spearman correlation was performed. ::: ::: ::: RESULTS ::: CAR rates during the authors' deployments were significantly up compared to the authors' predecessors or successors; their predecessors and successors did not differ statistically. Likewise, the PFC rate during the authors' deployments was significantly lower than that of the before or after time frames. Furthermore, a statistically significant inverse relationship between CAR and PFC rates (Spearman rho = -0.587) as well as CAR and PFC-100 rates (Spearman rho = -0.568) was demonstrated. ::: ::: ::: DISCUSSION ::: CAR rate was inversely correlated to PFC and PFC-100 rates. This finding suggests that aggressive prescribing of CARs may have a salutary effect on postflight complication rates and bears further investigation. | s2orc_abstract_citation |
