Magwitch's forbears: returning from transportation in eighteenth-century London | A study examining the Old Bailey court, the only forum in Metropolitan area that tried returnees in significant numbers, and its prosecution of prematurely returned transports between 1718 and 1799 focusing on the way in which they were apprehended, convicted and punished is illustrated. Transportation provided the prisoners an intermediate punishment between death and immediate release without occasioning the considerable costs entailed in long-term penal imprisonment. | s2orc_title_abstract |

What consisted of two rows of lights that formed a funnel, indicating an aircraft's position on the glidescope? | The first lighting used on an airport was during the latter part of the 1920s; in the 1930s approach lighting came into use. These indicated the proper direction and angle of descent. The colours and flash intervals of these lights became standardized under the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). In the 1940s, the slope-line approach system was introduced. This consisted of two rows of lights that formed a funnel indicating an aircraft's position on the glideslope. Additional lights indicated incorrect altitude and direction. | squad |
Good protection for lower-face with goggles and glasses? | I'm getting into airsoft after a long time of being a chairsofter. I kicked this off by doing tons of research and buying all of the gear I needed. Waiting for an auction to finish on eBay for some multicam BDUs and some oakley si assault gloves, so I'm not totally finished yet. Today I got back to the United States from being on vacation. I arrived to quite a few packages, among them this lower mesh and some ESS Land Ops goggles in green that I got off of eBay.
Unfortunately, it was an extremely uncomfortable fit. The goggles, coupled with the mesh mask, and my glasses put a lot of pressure on my nose and pushed my glasses upwards. The goggles fit perfectly on top of my glasses, so the mesh is what needs to go. I need a replacement. I'm thinking about a black shemagh* (*whatever what SWAT wears is called), but I'm concerned about how well it's going to protect. Can anybody suggest anything? Maybe provide links?

'Who does one believe?' Home finds no evidence of assault against 101-year-old woman | The daughter of a 101-year-old woman who says she was “walloped” with a towel is installing a video camera in her mother’s long-term care room.
Margaret Anthony said she and family members are taking the action, in part, because the alleged incident seems to boil down to “she-said/she-said.”
Anthony’s mother, Evelyn Dick, told a nurse who came into her room early on the morning of June 14, that she had just been walloped with a towel by a caregiver who told her to get back to bed. The elderly woman later told her daughter about the incident and said the caregiver has done the same to other residents.
Anthony has now been told that an internal investigation by Extendicare Starwood long-term care home, where her mother lives, found no evidence to support the claim. The caregiver in question has been moved to another floor, Anthony said. She was also told that the allegation would stay on the caregiver’s record.
Investigations into the alleged incident by police and by the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care staff are continuing. Anthony said she was present when her mother was interviewed by a ministry investigator and her mother repeated the story about being hit in the head with a towel, adding that she didn’t want to get anybody fired.
Although investigations are continuing, the case underscores how the potential challenges the elderly can face when they allege abuse. Graham Webb, executive director of the Advocacy Centre for the Elderly, says there are plenty of parallels with the Me Too movement, which focused attention on victims of sexual assault.
“One of the parallels is the tendency to to discount or disbelieve the survivor of the abuse. Sometimes older adults expect not to be believed or not to be taken seriously and that is not what should happen,” Webb said.
Even older adults with mild-to-moderate cognitive impairment are capable of accurately reporting events, he said.
Anthony says officials with the long-term care home told her that her mother might have misconstrued a tap on her shoulder or something similar. Anthony said her mother showed her where she was hit — on the side of her head. She added it would have been impossible for her mother to be surprised from behind because her bed is against the wall and there is a bed rail.
Anthony said she believes her mother, who immediately reported the incident and clearly described what happened, despite the fact that her mother has dementia.
“It is a case of a resident with dementia versus a caregiver. Who does one believe,” Anthony wrote in an email to home management. “I believe in giving mom the benefit of the doubt.
“Without a witness, there’s no proof as to what really happened. However, there have been too many incidents of abuse within the LTC system as a whole that have gone unreported because residents are at the mercy of caregivers who, unwitnessed, are abusive, until one day they are exposed as the ‘bad apple.’ No one knows what goes on behind closed doors,” Anthony wrote.
She said that is why the family is installing a video camera in her mother’s room, something the home welcomed and even helped install.
Webb said many residents of long-term care homes badly need an advocate and the most vulnerable are those who have no close friends or family to speak up on their behalf.
Families, he said, should be present and be interested in what is happening to their loved-ones in care. “Those who don’t have someone are much worse off than those who do.”
Sue MacGregor, administrator at the home, said in a statement than an investigation is underway and that all relevant authorities have been notified of the allegations.
“We empathize with Margaret and appreciate her ongoing advocacy on behalf of her mother,” she wrote in an email to this paper. “Our team at Extendicare Starwood stands united with her in this regard.”
In March, the home was found to have failed to promote zero tolerance of abuse and neglect of residents and to take proper action after housekeeping staff reported seeing a caregiver calling a resident names and handling that person, who was lying on the floor, roughly.
Anthony said she has spoken to others at the home who either have, or plan to, install video cameras in their loved-ones rooms.

Painkillers have less effect on keto? | Hey ketoers,
I have been on keto for two weeks, but I'm currently home bound due to a twisted ankle. After a visit to a doctor I got a higher dosage of diclofenac perscribed than I'm used to from the drugstore.
I took one pill two hours ago, but it's taking little or no effect so far (maybe slower). Usually the lower dosage from the store would take noticable effect. So I wondered, is being on keto affecting the way drugs are processed by the body?
Any thought on this?
EDIT: after a few more hours it started to work, the swelling is reducing now. The slow response was most like the result of a fatty meal that is being emptied slower by the stomach.
TLDR; Drug takes longer to be effective, ate pill with fat meal that takes more time to process. | reddit_title_body |

Notice that the assumption conditon gives that $f'(x)$ is of Lipschitz continuity, but this seems to be not so easy to use. I guess this maybe need to prove by contradiction. | Let $f:\Bbb R\to (0,\infty)$ be a differentiable function such that for some constant $k$ we have, $$|f'(x)-f'(y)|\le k|x-y|$$ for all $x,y \in\Bbb R.$ Then prove that, $$(f'(x))^2<2 kf(x).$$ Due to lack of arguments I could not proof this inequality. But rather I proved that is true for the particular function, $$f(x) =\cos^2(x)+1\implies f'(x) = -\sin(2x).$$ And we readily have,$$|\sin(2x)-\sin(2y)| = \left|\int_{2x}^{2y}\cos t dt\right|\le 2|x-y|$$ as well $$(f'(x))^2 = 4 \sin^2 x\cos^2x < 4(\cos^2x +1) = 4f(x).$$ It is also true for the function $x\mapsto \sin^2x +1.$ From these example I don't see how to prove the general case. Any hint will be welcome. | stackexchange_body_body |
We demonstrate that the thermoelectric properties of highly oriented Al-doped zinc oxide (AZO) thin films can be improved by controlling their crystal orientation. The crystal orientation of the AZO films was changed by changing the temperature of the laser deposition process on LaAlO3 (100) substrates. The change in surface termination of the LaAlO3 substrate with temperature induces a change in AZO film orientation. The anisotropic nature of electrical conductivity and Seebeck coefficient of the AZO films showed a favored thermoelectric performance in c-axis oriented films. These films gave the highest power factor of 0.26 W m−1 K−1 at 740 K. | Aluminum doped zinc oxide (AZO) thin films have become technologically important materials due to their application potential for thermoelectric devices. In this paper, AZO thin films are deposited on the glass substrates using the solution derived by sol–gel route for dip-coating cycles and the radio-frequency sputtering process. The crystalline structure of two types of AZO films is characterized by X-ray diffraction exhibiting the typical hexagonal wurzite structure of ZnO. The rough surface of the heat treated films are observed by the SEM image. The average grain size of obtained films is evaluated based on these investigations showing they are consistent with each other. The sheet resistivity and Seebeck coefficient are measured between room temperature and 400 °C and used to determine the electrical conductivity and power factor of all films. The obtained results provide the advantages and disadvantages of the prepared films by each method for aiming at thermoelectrical applications. | s2orc_abstract_citation |

Home Range, Habitat Selection, and Movements of California Black Rails at Tidal Marshes at San Francisco Bay, California | Abstract. Little is known about the movements and habitat selection of California Black Rails (Laterallus jamaicensis coturniculus) in coastal California. We captured 130 Black Rails, of which we radio-marked 48, in tidal marshes in San Francisco Bay during 2005 and 2006. Our objective was to examine their home ranges, movements, and habitat selection to improve the species' conservation. The mean fixed-kernel home range was 0.59 ha, the mean core area was 0.14 ha. Home ranges and core areas did not differ by year or site. Males had significantly larger home ranges and core areas than did females. All sites combined, Black Rails used areas with ≥94% total vegetative cover, with perennial pickleweed (Sarcocornia pacifica) the dominant plant. The rails' habitat selection varied by year and site but not by sex. A multivariate analysis of variance indicated that Black Rails selected areas with pickleweed taller and denser than average, greater cover and height of alkali bulrush (Bolboschoenus maritimus) and c... | s2orc_title_abstract |

Encinitas' first 'quiet zone' could be in place by next spring | Trains will likely stop sounding their horns as they rumble through a half-mile stretch of Cardiff starting early next year, thanks to the establishment of Encinitas' first "quiet zone" along the railroad corridor.
Installation of the required safety equipment at Cardiff's Chesterfield Drive railroad crossing point is scheduled to be done before the end of January 2019. Once that work has been certified and the railroad operators have been notified, the city's first "quiet zone" will become official, engineering consultant Christy Villa told the Encinitas City Council Wednesday night.
Council members said they hoped eventually to have the city's entire 6-mile railroad corridor given the same train horn "quiet" status.
"It's a little shocking to me that it's taken as long as it has," Councilman Tony Kranz said as he discussed the city's years of work so far to get the trains to stop sounding their horns as they go through the city's various railroad crossing points.
In order to create a "quiet zone" and be exempt from a federal law that requires train engineers to start sounding their train's horn as they approach each crossing, cities must undergo a lengthy process. They need approvals from multiple government agencies, ranging from the state Public Utilities Commission to the Federal Railroad Administration, and they must make costly upgrades to railroad crossing points to improve safety conditions for vehicles and pedestrians
On Wednesday night, Councilman Joe Mosca said he wanted assurances that there was no chance the city might at the last minute fail to get certification for its Chesterfield quiet zone, saying Encinitas has found with some government agencies that a sure thing doesn't always turn out to be the case.
Gheorghe Rosca, the project manager, told him that the city has a set list of safety improvements it has been directed to make to the crossing point -- items that all of the participating agencies have agreed upon -- and at this point it's simply a matter of checking off the items on list.
"We're very confident that there will be no further requirements at Chesterfield for the investment the city has made this far," he said.
After getting the status report on the Chesterfield project, council members unanimously agreed Wednesday night to continue pursuing quiet zone status for the rest of the city's railroad corridor and even consider extending the zone into Carlsbad, if its officials are interested in doing a joint project.
Working with Carlsbad may be attractive, Villa told the Encinitas City Council as she discussed the options for designing quiet zones. Cities can pursue quiet zones for individual intersections or they can create "book-ended" ones, which begin at one railroad crossing point and end at another, often including several others in-between the two points, she said.
The new quiet zone at Chesterfield Drive will be intersection-based, and will extend for a quarter-mile both north and south of the intersection. However, that isn't the preferred method for handling the rest of the city's railroad corridor because it creates gaps, or areas between intersections where train horns would still sound off, Villa said.
She recommended a bookend approach, and the City Council ultimately agreed to have the southern "bookend" be at E Street, while the northern one could be either Leucadia Boulevard in northern Encinitas, or possibly at Carlsbad's Cannon Road intersection, if Carlsbad decides to join the effort.
Starting the zone at E Street would leave a 1.5-mile gap between this quiet zone and the Chesterfield one, but the only way to link the two is to combine them into one big project and delay Chesterfield's certification, Villa said, mentioning that cities aren't allowed to have overlapping quiet zones.
Council members said they didn't want do anything to postpone the Chesterfield project, which has been years in the making. Kranz noted that it's now estimated to cost $12 million to do all the safety improvements to the city's other crossing points to make them qualify for quiet zone status, and said, "I would not be inclined to hold up the quiet zone for Chesterfield" while the city finds the funding for the larger project and then does the construction work.

Don't sound alarm for Jets just yet | See more Winnipeg Jets news
CALGARY - If it seemed a bit early for a wake-up call, thats because it was.
Each and every team in the NHL wants to get off to a good start when optimism is understandably high.
Its important to remember season openers arent necessarily indicators of what is to come.
Thats not to say the Toronto Maple Leafs dont have a dynamic offence they obviously do it just seems a bit silly to suggest the Winnipeg Jets, based on one regular-season game, are going to get blown out on a regular basis.
Sometimes, teams just lay an egg.
Dont believe me, just ask the two-time defending Stanley Cup champions who were blown out 10-1 by the Chicago Blackhawks on Thursday.
Nobody is running Mike Sullivan or Matt Murray out of town because of a blowout.
But theres a marked difference between a team with the hardware the Penguins have acquired since 2009 and a Jets franchise that has missed the playoffs in five of the past six seasons and has yet to win a single playoff game.
Benefit of the doubt has to be earned and the Jets havent banked enough goodwill in the piggy bank.
This isnt a defence for the lacklustre showing the Jets provided in the opener, not in the least.
Teams dont get praise for an opening 15 minutes of good hockey.
For most bubble teams, a 60-minute effort is a minimum requirement.
Wednesdays outcome was ugly and there were plenty of reasons for fans, players and members of the coaching staff to be concerned about after a 7-2 loss to the Maple Leafs.
The Jets defensive-zone woes were never going to get solved completely during training camp, but the loose coverage isnt acceptable either.
The Jets open a three-game road trip through western Canada on Saturday against the Calgary Flames and theyll continue on to face the Edmonton Oilers and Vancouver Canucks before returning home to take on the Carolina Hurricanes.
Spending more time with the puck would benefit the Jets, who feature no shortage of offensive talent.
Running into a hot goalie happens on occasion in the NHL and when a guy like Frederik Andersen makes 17 saves in the first period, its natural to squeeze the stick a little and for players to over pass or look for a perfect play in an effort to score.
Its also natural for individuals to press or go off script when you fall behind by two goals, thats also what turns two-goal deficits into a 4-0 game.
It also turns potential comebacks into blowouts.
I think whether its a 3-2 loss or a 7-2 loss, its still a loss. Thats kind of the way you have to look at it, Jets centre Adam Lowry told reporters. Theres parts of our game that we can take from that and we know we need to be better. Any time you get beat 7-2, there are areas that have to be looked at and need to be kind of worked on.
You see in the NHL, Pittsburgh loses 10-1 last night and theyre the defending Stanley Cup champions, so its not like the sky is falling. We know were going on this road trip with a job to do. Were looking forward to getting back in good spirits and getting that good feeling back.
As gifted as the Jets might be offensively, they wont be able to out-score their mistakes on a regular basis.
Once that becomes part of the mindset and only then will the Jets find themselves in a position to be successful on a consistent basis.
Thats been (the message) all training camp, too, Jets forward Mathieu Perreault told reporters. Weve been talking about that. It didnt show in the first game but I think were going to move on from that game. Whether you lose 7-2 or 1-0 the first game, we see it as a loss, a loss of two points. Were focusing on the next two points.
Chasing the game is a recipe for failure and the Jets spent far too much time doing that last season, leading to predictable results.
One can understand there being plenty of angst after a blowout loss, but perspective can be a valuable thing over the course of an 82 game-season.
Look no further than last years opener, when the Jets rallied from a 4-1 deficit to defeat the Carolina Hurricanes 5-4 in overtime.
That effort, while impressive, didnt lead me to believe the Jets were going to win the Stanley Cup.
Nor does a one-sided defeat to the Maple Leafs make me think the Jets are destined to finish dead last.
Having said that, the Jets cant afford many more stinkers in a month that has them playing 11 games nine of which come against teams that made the playoffs last season.
The Jets realize a good first month wont propel them into the playoffs, but a bad first month can make it increasingly difficult to recover.
Lowry relishes extra responsibility
CALGARY Take a wild guess who had the most ice time among Winnipeg Jets forwards in the season opener?
If you said Adam Lowry, congratulations.
The Jets third-line centre was the only forward over 20 minutes of ice time in the 7-2 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Lowry, who played 20:27, would have preferred the extra ice time came under different circumstances, but when you play at even strength, on the penalty kill and are on the top power play unit, it occasionally adds up.
Its always nice to play a lot. You know, wed have liked to convert on some of those power-play opportunities, Lowry told reporters in Winnipeg on Friday. I dont think its going to be too often where I have the most ice time over our forward group.
Lowry, who played just under 10 minutes at even strength, 7:50 on the power play and 2:39 while shorthanded, finished the night with four shots on goal and three hits, but was only 33% in the faceoff circle.
Jets head coach Paul Maurice makes no apologies for handing Lowry plenty of responsibility.
Yeah. Im fine with it. Hes going to do both (power play and penalty kill)," Maurice told reporters. "Wed like to stay out of the penalty box and on a percentage basis, we did that relative to our opponent.
He does a nice job net front, gets a good screen, gets his handle on the puck. He needs to kill penalties, too. Hes in our three-hole in terms of our lines so his 5-on-5 minutes will be reasonable.

Striker Carlos Tevez has been suspended for two weeks by Manchester City .
The suspension follows his non-appearance from the bench against Bayern Munich .
Tevez earlier issued a statement denying that he had refused to play when asked .
City coach Roberto Mancini has said Tevez will never play for the club again . | (CNN) -- Striker Carlos Tevez has been suspended by Manchester City after the furore surrounding his non-appearance from the substitutes' bench during the 2-0 Champions League defeat at Bayern Munich on Tuesday. City manager Roberto Mancini slammed the Argentine international following his team's loss at the Allianz Arena, claiming Tevez had refused to take to the pitch and would consequently not play for the club again. And, although Tevez subsequently released a statement denying the claims, City have now confirmed that the player will be suspended for the immediate future. A statement on City's official website read: "Manchester City can confirm that striker Carlos Tevez has been suspended until further notice for a maximum period of two weeks. "The player's suspension is pending a full review into his alleged conduct during Tuesday evening's 2-0 defeat to Bayern Munich. "The player will not be considered for selection or take part in training whilst the review is under way." Earlier on Wednesday, former Manchester United forward Tevez rejected Italian coach Mancini's claims and said the incident was a "misunderstanding." "I would like to apologise to all Manchester City fans, with whom I have always had a strong relationship, for any misunderstanding that occurred in Munich," read the statement from Tevez. Tevez tantrum is a disgrace to soccer . "They understand that when I am on the pitch I have always given my best for the club. In Munich on Tuesday I had warmed up and was ready to play. This is not the right time to get into specific details as to why this did not happen. But I wish to state that I never refused to play. "There was some confusion on the bench and I believe my position may have been misunderstood. Going forward I am ready to play when required and to fulfil my obligations." The statement is in contrast to Tevez's remarks immediately after the match, when he appeared to reaffirm his desire to leave City. "I think it's Mancini's decision. I've been a professional throughout," he told British broadcaster Sky Sports through a translator. "I put my opinion through, that I wanted to leave for family reasons and I still played my best." Gomez double gives Bayern 2-0 win . The fixture in Europe's premier club competition was set to be a landmark occasion for City; whose clash with four-time European champions Bayern represented their first away match in the tournament. But the match unravelled for City, who won the English FA Cup last season, when Germany striker Mario Gomez grabbed two goals in the closing stages of the first half. Tuesday's controversy is the latest development in a saga which has seen Tevez move close to an exit from the Etihad Stadium on several occasions. The former Corinthians striker handed in a transfer request in December 2010, citing a breakdown in communications with the City board as the reason behind his decision. It looked as if Tevez was set for a return to Sao Paulo-based Corinthians in July, but the four-time Brazilian champions claimed there was insufficient time to conclude the deal. City have signed a host of attacking players in 2011, including the capture of Dzeko from Wolfsburg in January and the additions of Sergio Aguero from Atletico Madrid and France midfielder Samir Nasri from Arsenal in the last transfer window. As a result, Tevez has struggled to break into City's starting line-up so far this season and has seen defender Vincent Kompany replace him as club captain. "He wanted to leave last year," former Inter coach Mancini told a press conference on Tuesday. "I helped him for two years every time. He refused to play. I cannot accept this behaviour from him. I decide the substitutions, not Carlos. "Do you think at Bayern Munich one player can play like this? Or Milan or Manchester United? No. There were 30 minutes to the end. There was time to change the game." | cnn |

Party officials met detectives who have been called in to assess whether criminal acts may have taken place. | By . James Chapman, Gerri Peev and Ryan Kisiel . PUBLISHED: . 18:27 EST, 26 February 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 02:50 EST, 27 February 2013 . Nick Clegg launched an extraordinary attack on the media yesterday for exposing the Lord Rennard scandal. The Deputy Prime Minister accused journalists investigating a cover-up of being ‘self-appointed detectives’. His ill-judged remarks shocked Tory and Labour MPs, who said he should focus on getting to the truth. Ill-judged: Nick Clegg (left) launched an attack on journalists for exposing the Lord Rennard scandal. Alison Smith (right), a former Lib Dem activist, went public with groping claims against Lord Rennard . And Alison Smith, a former Liberal Democrat activist who went public with groping claims against Lord Rennard last week, said Mr Clegg was wrong to attack a ‘free press regarded by most as important in a democracy’. In another twist, the Mail has learnt that senior Lib Dems were attempting to silence whistleblowers only this week. On Monday, Lord Stoneham, who was the party’s director of operations at the height of the claims against Lord Rennard, made an ‘aggressive’ telephone call to a former party activist who claimed she saw the peer molesting a young woman a decade ago. He was apparently furious she had contacted this newspaper to complain that her allegations had been swept under the carpet. On another black day for the Lib Dems: . The affair started when former Lib Dem activists went public with claims of sexual harassment against Lord Rennard, who retired as the party’s chief executive in 2009 – ostensibly on health grounds. After initially denying he knew about the claims until shortly before three women made allegations on Channel 4 News, Mr Clegg admitted he had asked his then chief of staff Danny Alexander to probe ‘non-specific concerns’ about Lord Rennard in 2008. It has since emerged that Mr Clegg’s office failed to act on specific and detailed allegations of misconduct by the peer made in 2010. Sandra Gidley, the ex-frontbencher who raised her concerns with him, said: ‘I spoke to Nick Clegg about general concerns. I didn’t know of any specific incidents and neither did he.’ Peers: Lord Ben Stoneham introduced to the Lords (left) standing next to Lord Rennard (right) A spokesman for the Deputy Prime Minister said: ‘Sandra Gidley did raise general concerns with Nick Clegg about Lord Rennard’s conduct. She did not know of or raise specific allegations. As Nick Clegg has said, he was aware of general concerns which were acted upon by his then chief of staff Danny Alexander.’ Yesterday Mr Clegg, speaking outside his south-west London home, called for detectives who are now reviewing the claims to be allowed to do their job. He said: ‘I understand there are many people who appear to want to act as self-appointed detectives trying to piece together events that happened many years ago. 'But the only way that we are going to get to the bottom of the truth, the only way we are going to ensure that the women whose allegations were broadcast on television last week are properly listened to, the only way were are going to establish exactly what happened and who knew what and when, is by allowing the two investigations that I established immediately after the Channel 4 broadcast to do their job and, indeed, to allow the police, whom we have now approached, to do their job as well. 'And in the meantime I cannot – and my party cannot – provide a running commentary on every shred of speculation about events which happened many years ago.’ His intervention drew a stinging response from Miss Smith, who wrote on Twitter: ‘Clegg slams “self-appointed detectives”, otherwise known as the free press. Regarded by most as important in a democracy.’ She added: ‘They covered up a massive scandal, and now they don’t want people asking questions.’ She also dismissed the idea that the allegations had been timed to damage the party leadership ahead of a crucial by-election in Eastleigh, which will take place tomorrow. Toward the end of last year, she and some of the other alleged victims of Lord Rennard’s unwanted advances agreed to go public with their story, and told the party at the end of last month that they had done so. Therese Coffey, a Tory MP and member of the Commons culture, media and sport committee, said: ‘It is only through the power of the free press and TV that these allegations have come to light. Instead of trying to divert attention by blaming journalists, Nick Clegg should be focusing on getting to the unvarnished truth.’ Conor Burns, another Tory MP, said: ‘Only someone with the genius of Nick Clegg could have a sex scandal that doesn’t involve sex and turn it into a leadership crisis. Mr Clegg would have to answer fewer questions from the press if he put out a statement that he could stick to about what he knew and when.’ Labour MP John Mann, who wrote to police asking them to investigate, claimed Mr Clegg treated the Rennard accusations as an issue of ‘political management’. ‘The real issue is why didn’t Clegg and the Liberals do the appropriate thing in dealing with this as serious allegation, rather than as political management,’ he said. Mr Clegg’s aides insisted he had not been attacking broadcasters in his remarks but rather Conservative-supporting newspapers he believes are revelling in the scandal. At least 10 women are thought to have made allegations that they were molested or pestered by Lord Rennard . Lord Rennard yesterday dramatically denied Nick Clegg’s claim that he had been confronted about sexual harassment allegations. As yet more senior party figures were dragged into the scandal, the peer at the centre of the claims categorically denied anyone had spoken to him about his conduct. But Mr Clegg’s office insists Cabinet minister Danny Alexander confronted Lord Rennard about rumours of unwanted advances to women Lib Dem activists in 2008. In a statement on Sunday, Mr Clegg said that Mr Alexander had ‘put these concerns to Chris Rennard and warned him that any such behaviour was wholly unacceptable’. But a spokesman for Lord Rennard insisted: ‘In 27 years of working for the Liberal Democrats he received no complaint or allegation about his behaviour. Nor is he aware of any personal complaints being made in the three and a half years since he stood down as chief executive until last week.’ In an indication that the key players in the affair are beginning to turn against each other, sources close to Mr Clegg insisted Lord Rennard’s meeting with Mr Alexander ‘categorically did happen’. One said: ‘He raised the concerns that had been passed to him, that were non-specific, about Chris’s behaviour. Chris denied them.’ The Deputy Prime Minister’s aides also suggested for the first time that the peer did not stand down solely for health reasons in 2009, as was publicly stated, but after pressure from Mr Clegg’s office. ‘We did act,’ said one. ‘Chris Rennard was spoken to, then in 2009 he was ill and he stood down. The timeline speaks for itself.’ In his statement Lord Rennard’s spokesman said he ‘refuted the allegations’ that he had behaved inappropriately with as many as ten female activists. The spokesman added: ‘He has been notified of an internal investigatory panel within the party. ‘The matter must now be regarded as sub judice pending its proceedings and no further statement will be issued in the interim. He expects others to respect the sub judice principle, and he notes that under the party rules concerned it is for any case made against him to be proved by evidence to the requisite standard. He denies impropriety.’ Former Liberal Democrat leader Lord Ashdown suggested yesterday he and colleagues had ‘all picked up the rumours’ about Lord Rennard ‘some time before’ women went public with allegations of sexual harassment last week. But he insisted he did not hear any speculation about the peer’s conduct while he was leader. And although one of the victims claimed allegations against Lord Rennard dated back as far as 2001, Charles Kennedy, who was party leader at the time, insisted he had never heard anything about them. | cnn |

Scots more likely to ask about salary during job interview | Scottish job seekers are more likely to quiz prospective bosses over what they will be paid in a new role than workers elsewhere in the UK, a report has revealed.
Almost 30 per cent of people in Scotland said they would ask about salary when in a job interview, compared to just 17.5 per cent in the rest of Britain. In Aberdeen, where a lot of people are employed in the oil and gas industry, the figure is even higher, with almost half of job seekers saying they would have no qualms about establishing a prospective salary in an interview, according to the survey by CV-Library.
Meanwhile, Scots are also more likely to ensure that a new job would have a long-term future before taking it, the report found. A total of 81.5 per cent of people in Scotland said they would ask if there was “room for development” in a new position, while almost 40 per cent said they would pose questions about the general culture of the company and the workplace.
Lee Biggins, founder and managing director of CV-Library said: “It’s always good to turn up to an interview armed with appropriate questions to ask and you should note them down beforehand just in case you have a mind blank half way through. Not only will this show you’re well prepared, it also demonstrates that you have a genuine interest in the company and the opportunity to work there.
“Rather than going straight in with questions around salaries and working hours, you can find out more about a company by posing questions about their culture, teams and how they measure success.
“Doing so will help you paint a picture of what it’s like to work there, and will also show to the interviewer that you are passionate about working in a company where the fit is right on both sides.”
The majority of professionals in Scotland think it is appropriate to ask three to five questions, while 43.2 per cent would ask just one or two.
Only one in ten people said they a believe it is appropriate to pose up to 10 questions – although over half of people believe that candidates who do not ask questions in an interview will be frowned upon. | ccnews |

Motivation: PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs that are highly abundant in the germline. One important role of piRNAs is to defend genome integrity by guiding PIWI proteins to silence transposable elements (TEs), which have a high potential to cause deleterious effects on their host. The mechanism of piRNA-mediated post-transcriptional silencing was also observed to affect mRNAs, suggesting that piRNAs might play a broad role in gene expression regulation. However, there has been no systematic report with regard to how many protein-coding genes might be targeted and regulated by piRNAs. Results: We trained a support vector machine classifier based on a combination of Miwi CLIP-Seq-derived features and position-derived features to predict the potential targets of piRNAs on mRNAs in the mouse. Reanalysis of a published microarray dataset suggested that the expression level of the 2587 protein-coding genes predicted as piRNA targets showed significant upregulation as a whole after abolishing the slicer activity of Miwi, supporting the conclusion that they are subject to piRNA-mediated regulation. Availability and implementation: A web version of the method called pirnaPre as well as our results for browse is available at http://www.regulatoryrna.org/software/piRNA/piRNA_target_mRNA/index.php. Contact: crs@sun5.ibp.ac.cn or heshunmin@gmail.com Supplementary information: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online. | Repetitive-element-derived Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) act together with Piwi proteins Mili (also known as Piwil2) and Miwi2 (also known as Piwil4) in a genome defence mechanism that initiates transposon silencing via DNA methylation in the mouse male embryonic germ line. This silencing depends on the participation of the Piwi proteins in a slicer-dependent piRNA amplification pathway and is essential for male fertility. A third Piwi family member, Miwi (also known as Piwil1), is expressed in specific postnatal germ cells and associates with a unique set of piRNAs of unknown function. Here we show that Miwi is a small RNA-guided RNase (slicer) that requires extensive complementarity for target cleavage in vitro. Disruption of its catalytic activity in mice by a single point mutation causes male infertility, and mutant germ cells show increased accumulation of LINE1 retrotransposon transcripts. We provide evidence for Miwi slicer activity directly cleaving transposon messenger RNAs, offering an explanation for the continued maintenance of repeat-derived piRNAs long after transposon silencing is established in germline stem cells. Furthermore, our study supports a slicer-dependent silencing mechanism that functions without piRNA amplification. Thus, Piwi proteins seem to act in a two-pronged mammalian transposon silencing strategy: one promotes transcriptional repression in the embryo, the other reinforces silencing at the post-transcriptional level after birth. | s2orc_abstract_citation |

Tuning the rheological behavior of colloidal gels through competing interactions | We study colloidal gels formed by competing electrostatic repulsion and short-range attraction by means of extensive numerical simulations under external shear. We show that, upon varying the repulsion strength, the gel structure and its viscoelastic properties can be largely tuned. In particular, the gel fractal dimension can be either increased or decreased with respect to mechanical equilibrium conditions. Unexpectedly, gels with stronger repulsion, despite being mechanically stiffer, are found to be less viscous with respect to purely attractive ones. We provide a microscopic explanation of these findings in terms of the influence of an underlying phase separation. Our results allow for design of colloidal gels with desired structure and viscoelastic response by means of additional electrostatic interactions, easily controllable in experiments. | s2orc_title_abstract |
