Q: How to understand xargs Saying that I have two files t1 and t2, they have the same content: abc. Now I want to delete all files, who contains the string abc. So I tried to execute the command: grep -rl abc . \| rm but it doesn't work. Then I add xargs: grep -rl abc . \| xargs rm and it works. I can't understand clearly what xargs did. A: grep puts the output as stdout. But rm cannot process data from stdin (the pipe links both). You want instead, that the output of grep is put as argument of rm. So xargs command "convert" stdin into arguments of xargs first argument, and it call the command (the first argument). As alternative, you could do rm `grep -rl abc .` or rm $(grep -rl abc .) But xargs handles well also the case where there are too many arguments for a single call of the command. The above command will give you shell error (argument string too long).
Because a therapeutic agent, for example pharmacological, genetic, or biological, may be ineffective or even toxic when delivered systemically, tools and methods for delivering therapeutic agents locally, that is, to a targeted tissue site, have been developed. Many state-of-the art steerable catheters have lumens through which agents may be delivered. Rather than modifying state-of-the-art steerable catheter designs to integrally incorporate specific delivery mechanisms, such as means to inject agents into a tissue site, it is desirable to provide modular apparatuses, which can be coupled to any of such state-of-the-art steerable catheters and which include desired specific delivery mechanisms.

A template model of embodiment while dreaming: Proposal of a mini-me. Dreams are usually centered around a dream self capable of tasks generally impossible in waking, e.g. flying or walking through walls. Moreover, the bodily dream self appears relatively stable and insensitive to changes of the embodied wake self, raising the question of whether and to what extent the dream self is embodied. To further explore its determinants, we tested whether the dream self would be affected by either pre-sleep focused attention to a body part or by its experimental alteration during the day. Choosing a repeated-measures design, we analyzed how often key words reflecting the experimental manipulations appeared in the dream reports. Results suggest that the dream self is not affected by these manipulations, strengthening the hypothesis that, in the majority of dreams, the dream self is only weakly embodied, utilizing a standard template of embodiment akin to a prototype of self operating independently from the physical waking self.

Parallel reductions in stomatin and Na,K-ATPase through the exosomal pathway during reticulocyte maturation in dogs: stomatin as a genotypic and phenotypic marker of high K(+) and low K(+) red cells. Dogs can be divided into two genetic groups (a minor HK phenotype and a major LK phenotype) based on erythrocyte monovalent cation concentrations, which are controlled by the putative hk and lk allelic genes. HK dogs retain Na,K-ATPase in their erythrocytes due to the high activity of the enzyme in their precursor cells, whereas total loss of reticulocyte Na,K-ATPase occurs in LK dogs. Here, we report that the levels of the lipid raft-associated membrane protein stomatin decrease in parallel with those of Na,K-ATPase during reticulocyte maturation due to its extrusion in exosomes. The stomatin content of HK reticulocytes is higher than that of LK reticulocytes, and remains in the erythrocytes at levels compatible with that in human erythrocytes. However, it is almost absent from LK erythrocytes with the lk/lk genotype; similar to the deficiency seen in human red cells with overhydrated stomatocytosis. LK erythrocytes from hk/lk genotype dogs show reduced, but not negligible, levels of stomatin. These results indicate that the erythrocyte stomatin level is a suitable genotypic marker for the HK/LK red cell phenotype, and suggests a functional association between stomatin and Na,K-ATPase. The absence of morphological abnormalities in the erythrocytes of stomatin-deficient LK dogs also confirms that stomatin deficiency and stomatocytic shape change are independent from each other.

Ambulatory medicine in equine practice. The scope of medical problems encountered by the equine ambulatory practitioner is immense; there is a wealth of information available to ambulatory practitioners pertaining to specific medical topics. It is certainly possible to practice high-quality equine medicine in a field setting. However, hospital referral should be offered to clients for conditions not conducive to successful treatment in the field. Prompt referral of difficult cases is a sign that the practitioner wants the best treatment for the patient and is often gladly accepted by the client. When surgical or hospital referral is not an option, it is imperative that the ambulatory practitioner not only offer humane alternatives but also inform and educate horse owners on equine suffering and welfare issues so that clients do not have unreasonable expectations of a positive outcome.
Whatever the reason, it is important to be informed of all available options and to act quickly. Early Delinquency Intervention (EDI) involves addressing the financial crisis in the earliest possible stages in order to maximize relief available from the lender. For EDI to be effective, it must include a clear Statement of the Problem, a thorough Personal Financial Assessment, and a realistic Plan of Action, spelling out for the lender the relief you are seeking and how you plan to meet your current and future financial obligations. You may have the misconception that the lender wants to take your home back through foreclosure. This is not true. The vast majority of lenders are only interested in seeing that payments are made each month as agreed in the mortgage terms. As a general rule, lenders only begin foreclosure when all else fails. They look for ways to assist you when you are having financial difficulty, but their ability to help declines with each missed payment. Therefore, it is extremely important to address the crisis as soon as it occurs and to keep the lender informed at all times.
Primary health care India’s large population relies on the primary health care system to provide every-day health services. A key resource of the primary health care system are the non-physician healthcare workers. They form the vital link between the consumers and the primary health care system. Drawn from within the community, their reach and familiarity with the community is a great asset that can be leveraged to improve healthcare delivery. In order to address the critical health issues and disease burden that the vast rural population is facing, we have been able to leverage technology to overcome the gaps at the primary health care level by designing, implementing, and evaluating a series of efficient, low-cost and sustainable interventions. Our careful research has shown how these interventions can be delivered successfully, and the potential barriers and facilitators. Starting from cardiovascular diseases, the project provides evidence for the prevention and management of all non-communicable diseases (NCD) in India, but also has lessons for other developing countries and regions worldwide to effectively combat the emerging disease burden. Components of this program include integration of m-health- based electronic decision system to enable physicians and non-physician health workers to provide high-quality care and developing health applications for ordinary users. We are expecting greater development in this area through partnership with communities and government. New programs of research in primary care include issues around women’s and adolescents’ health conditions. In the former, we plan to focus on developing a life-course approach and for the latter, we would examine unique models of healthcare including those through social media.

Food left cooking on stove the source of fire station blaze OMAHA, Neb. (AP) _ Officials say the fire that damaged a northwest Omaha fire station started after someone left food cooking on a stove. The fire Sunday morning left the kitchen and the station’s living areas heavily damaged. A battalion chief caught a whiff of smoke at the station and found the kitchen ablaze. He called for help because most of the firefighters assigned there were out on a call. Battalion Chief Scott Fitzpatrick said Monday that the firefighters who left for the emergency call thought the stove was turned off. Turns out it wasn’t, and the fire eventually broke out. The department hopes to have firefighters back living and working in the station within four weeks. The repairs will include addition of a sprinkler and fire-suppression system over the stove.
Residential This Chin Up bar is the ultimate pull up bar designed for the serious body builder/athlete. Mount on solid wall or wood beam for permanent safety! Work out readily anytime... no need to mount on a doorway each time you work out. The ab wheel rollout seems an easy enough bodyweight skill to master, you simply push the wheel forward until your whole body is extended and then pull back to your starting position. However, after hitting the deck face down several times most people including myself realize just how hard this simple looking exercise is. Having said that, it is one of the three best abdominal exercises that you can do so if you want strong defined abs it is definitely worth the months of hard work needed to nail it. Many times standard push ups without a push-up bar will result in discomfort in the wrists/hands due to the position of the hands on the floor. The grips elevate the user off of the floor and alleviate much of the pressure. Push-ups are excellent upper-body exercises that build muscular strength and endurance in the chest, shoulders, arms and chest. The use of TAP Push-Up Bar requires stabilization of the abdominals providing a more intense core workout than regular push-ups without the bars might provide. Build power and strength in your arms, shoulders, and chest with the Altus nylon dip belt. Designed to hold a weight plate at the end of its heavy-duty steel hardware, the nylon belt adds weight to your tricep dip routine, so you can use more than just your body weight to bulk up. Place this mat underneath your treadmill, elliptical, exercise bike, or strength equipment to help protect your floors and carpeting from potential damage. It also helps to protect your fitness equipment from damage by keeping dust and debris on your floor from collecting on moving parts and electronics. Standard barbells are smaller and lighter than Olympic barbells. Commercial fitness centers typically don't use standard barbells because they don't hold as much weight as an Olympic barbell, but they are convenient for home gyms because they don't take up as much space.

Q: Obj-C & Cocoa: Variable is nil after applicationDidFinishLaunching: In the interface for my AppDelegate I have the following property declaration: @property (strong) NSArray fileNamesInCurrentDirectory; and then, in the implementation: - (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(NSNotification )aNotification { [self setFileNamesInCurrentDirectory:[NSArray arrayWithObject:@"hello"]]; } - (NSInteger)numberOfRowsInTableView:(NSTableView )tableView { return [self.fileNamesInCurrentDirectory count]; } When numberOfRowsInTableView is called, fileNamesInCurrentDirectory is nil. Why? Thanks in advance. A: Because as mentioned in the documentation - (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(NSNotification )aNotification Sent by the default notification center after the application has been launched and initialized Which means, I guess, that the application loads entirely, build all views and then call the method. Is there any reason why you need your method call to occur after the application is loaded ?
Q: Xen as a Standalone OS? Is it possible to install Xen as a standalone operating system, without any existing linux distribution? If yes, how? Thank you. A: Xen is a hypervisor, not an OS. But it currently requires on the Linux Dom0 for two things. It provides the device drivers for the Xen hypervisor and Virtual Machines. Dom0 is used as an interface to control the hypervisor and Virtual Machines. Like others have pointed out there are options where you can hit the ground running via live cd's or distributions such as XenServer which puts a more user friendly interface on Xen.

EC President Jose Barroso has told Tsvetan Tsvetanov, Deputy Chair of Bulgarian party GERB, that the South Stream gas pipeline has not been given priority treatment in Europe. Barroso, as cited by the press office of GERB (Citizens Citizens for European Development of Bulgaria), informed Tsvetanov that the South Stream gas pipeline was a new project envisaging the same supplier, Russian Gazprom. The EC President also commented that by refusing to give political priority to South Stream, Europe could focus on a gas pipeline project running from Azerbaijan through Italy, provided that Azerbaijan resisted Russian pressure. During the meeting, former Bulgarian Interior Minister and current Deputy Chair of GERB Tsvetan Tsvetanov declared that Sergey Stanishev, leader of the Party of European Socialists (PES) and the Bulgarian Socialist Party (BSP), kept arguing that all problems over the past two years had been the fault of the governments of the European People's Party (EPP), adding that he conveniently failed to mention the failure of socialist cabinets and the crisis they had caused in Europe. Tsvetanov cited Spain and Greece as cases in point. Barroso responded by saying that it had been precisely at a time of crisis that right-wing governments had acted as a real guarantor of stability and security in Europe. "This is why we are telling Bulgaria to be much more cautious, for instance with the implementation of gas links with Russia, at the expense of other pipelines, which could provide a diversification of energy supplies for the country. This is why the historical decision for the EU accession of Bulgaria and Romania was a decision of huge importance because if they were outside the EU, we would be having problems with Bulgaria and Romania apart from Ukraine, where Russia would have set foot to expand its influence," Barroso was quoted as saying by the press office of GERB. "There are people in Bulgaria, not from the EPP, who are agents of Russia. This gives the EPP the opportunity to guarantee stability and security in Bulgaria and Romania and the entire region," Barroso noted.

[Mycoplasma hominis in female genital tract]. In dependence on health of women the female genital tract is colonised by different microorganisms. Mycoplasma hominis was the first mycoplasma of human origin to be isolated. M. hominis, a common inhabitant of the vagina of healthy women, becomes pathogenic once it invades the internal genital organs. M. hominis is associated with bacterial vaginosis but it is still unclear whether the organism really contributes to a pathological process in which so many different bacteria are involved. The aim of this article is to summarize known information about these microorganisms.
Civilization is a turn-based single-player computer game. The player takes on the role of the ruler of a civilization starting with only one or two Settler units. The player attempts to build an empire in competition with between two and six other civilizations. The game requires a fair amount of micromanagement (although less than any of the simulation games). Along with the larger tasks of exploration, war and diplomacy, the player has to make decisions about where to build new cities...
Membrane-bound tyrosine aminopeptidase activities in the rat brain throughout the estrous cycle. Puromycin sensitive and insensitive membrane-bound aminopeptidase activity levels during the estrous cycle in several brain areas have been described in this research. We have found the highest aminopeptidase M activity levels during the proetrous stage in the hypothalamus, the amygdala and the pituitary gland. Since this enzyme has been involved in opioid peptide metabolism, it is suggested that aminopeptidase M could play a part in the decrease in the inhibitory influence of the endogenous opioids peptides that participate in the LH surge.
Many people need some sort of corrective lens or magnifier in order to read or see objects at a distance, and so wear eyeglasses. Many such people also wear sunglasses outside in the sun and a practical problem arises if they want to read a book, or otherwise need their eyeglass aided vision. For example, he or she must purchase a pair of prescription sunglasses or endure the sun without the benefit of sunglasses while reading. The purchase of a pair of prescription sunglasses is expensive, but a large part of the expense is due to the cost of the frame. Broken lenses and new prescriptions for the old frames are always much less expensive to replace than the original cost of the frame and lenses combined. Such people have the further practical problem of carrying around at least two pairs of prescription lens and frame sets (i.e., the prescription sunglasses and the reading or distance eyeglasses). Even for those sunglass wearers whose vision does not require assistance, sunglass lenses break or get scratched, or different activities suggest or require different shapes and/or colors of lenses. For instance, in bright sunlight, a darker shade may be indicated, while in overcast light, a yellow or rose tint can brighten the view; bicycle athletes want a lens with substantial wrap depth to protect their eyes and to improve aerodynamics, but for running or apres-cycle they may want a different shape or color. Sometimes the dictates of fashion simply require a different color or shape lens set. One approach to deal with this problem has been to use a pair of prescription eyeglasses that are tinted in such a way that there is a minor tint when the ambient light is relatively low and a more severe tint as the ambient light becomes brighter. However, such eyeglasses are relatively expensive and the tint of the lenses may change at times when it is not desirable for it to change. Another attempt to solve the problem of the need for multiple pairs of corrective or sunglass eyewear is to use "clip-on" or "snap-in" tinted lenses in connection with a pair of clear prescription spectacles. Clip-on lenses are attached to a pair of eyeglasses by a clip, typically located at the center of the clip-on lenses. The clip attaches over the nosepiece of the eyeglasses. Sometimes the clip snaps over the sides of each of a pair of separate lenses formed to the shape of specific eyeglasses for which they are provided. In another variation, a tinted lens is snapped into a circumferential groove inboard of the clear lens. In another attempt to solve the problem, clear prescription lenses are hung, hinged or otherwise detachably mounted inboard of a pair of conventional sunglass lenses. Typically, some additional structure is added to the sunglass frames for holding a prescription lens or pair of lenses behind the sunglass lenses; however in one species, the frames themselves are modified with threads to receive a "screwed-in" prescription lens for each lens of the sunglasses. Clip-on lenses can be disadvantageous, however, because they result in less than desirable optics, typically through an inability to control the spacing and angular relationship between the sunglass lens and its clear lens with any precision or degree of stability, and because they are cosmetically unattractive. Ultimately, the route everyone seems to take, if they can afford it, is to simply own more than one pair of eyewear, and to carry for a given day or activity the pairs they think they will need. Of course, each pair has its own frameset, and typically its own case, the combined bulk and weight of which will generally discourage all but fanatics from having ready to hand the right eyewear for the right activity or light condition, or simply for the right fashion statement at the moment. All of which is to say nothing of the disastrous expense of having broken a sunglass lens or lenses, or otherwise marred them to the point of needing replacement. Sunglass manufacturers, unlike prescription eyeglass purveyors, do not generally provide ready means for lens replacement; generally, damage to a pair of expensive sunglasses means another trip to the store to buy a new pair, frames and all. There is therefore a need for a simple, relatively inexpensive lens replacement system for a given frame set that may be employed to support a pair of fashion or performance sunglass lenses, and various colors and shapes of them, and also to support a corrective pair of lenses or a pair of prescription sunglass lenses, that can be used comfortably and effectively for sustained periods of time, and that will provide for interchangeability or quick and cost effective replacement of the various lens types on a single frame set.

Q: Gitignore on executable What would be the format for excluding files that do not have an extension, such as runme, which does not have an extension. For example, if the files in my directory are: script.sh script.s runme I want to exclude the files without an extension. I suppose the regex for this would be ^[^.]+$. How does this go into a .gitignore though? What are the regex (or is it more unix/shell filepath matching patterns)? A: The gitignore file format doesn't support regular expressions, just regular Unix-style patterns. In your case, I would exclude everything and then allow the files that do have an extension. For example: # Ignore everything * # Allow directories !/ # Allow files with an extension !.* This would include files like these: foo.txt some/dir/bar.txt But exclude files like these: foo some/dir/bar

The taste of breast milk is generally considered to be sweet and creamy with a pleasant flavor. However, when it comes to which flavors you like and don't like, everyone has a different experience. Taste is developed over time depending on your genetics, your culture, and the foods that you're exposed to throughout your life. So breast milk, just like any other food, may taste different to different people. Why Breast Milk Is Sweet and Creamy Breast milk contains the milk sugar lactose. Even though lactose is not the sweetest type of sugar when there is a lot of lactose present, the sweetness is much greater. Because lactose is one of the main ingredients in breast milk, it appears in high concentrations, giving breast milk its sweet flavor. Breast milk also contains fat. The amount of fat in milk determines its creaminess. When breast milk first starts to flow from the breast, it has less fat, so it may appear thin and watery. But, as the milk continues to flow, it becomes higher in fat and much creamier. What Gives Breast Milk Its Taste Beyond sweet and creamy, breast milk is made up of the flavors that come from the foods that you eat every day. When you eat a well-balanced diet full of fruits and vegetables, you are exposing your child to the tastes of these healthy foods. As your breastfed child grows and begins to eat solid foods, experts believe that he will more readily accept the foods that you have already exposed him to through your breast milk. In this way, your child can develop a taste for many of the foods that you enjoy, even garlic, spicy foods, or other cultural dishes. Things That Affect the Flavor of Breast Milk A change in the taste of your breast milk for any of the reasons listed below may affect your child. Some babies will not seem to notice or mind the variations of taste while other children will nurse less, go on a nursing strike, or even appear to be self-weaning. By understanding some of the things that can change the flavor of your breast milk, you may be able to keep your child breastfeeding longer. Hormones: The shifts in the levels of hormones in your body from the return of your period or a new pregnancy may influence the flavor of your milk. It's still safe to breastfeed if you have your period, and it's usually safe to continue to breastfeed if you become pregnant again as long as you are not high risk. So, if you still want to breastfeed, continue to offer your child the breast. Exercise: The build-up of lactic acid in your body along with the saltiness of perspiration on your breasts from strenuous exercise can change the taste of your breast milk. To try to minimize the effect on your breast milk, keep your workouts at a light or moderate level. You can also wash your breasts before you feed your baby to remove the salty sweat. Medications: Certain medications can change the taste of your breast milk. If you start a new medication and notice your child is not breastfeeding as well, that might be the cause. Talk to your doctor if you think this is an issue. Smoking: Studies show that the breast milk made by a mother after smoking cigarettes will take on the smell and flavor of the smoke. If you smoke, have your cigarette immediately after you finish feeding your child and try not to smoke for at least two hours before breastfeeding again to keep the smell and flavor of the smoke to a minimum. Alcohol: Drinking alcohol is known to affect the taste of breast milk. It takes about two hours for each alcoholic drink you consume to leave your body and your breast milk. So, the longer you wait to breastfeed after you have an alcoholic beverage, the less alcohol will be in your breast milk to alter the flavor. Frozen Breast Milk: When you defrost breast milk that has been collected and stored in the freezer, it will sometimes have a soapy odor and taste. It's still safe to give to your child, but he may not like the different flavor and refuse it. Mastitis: Mastitis is a breast infection that can cause your breast milk to have a strong, salty taste. If you think you may have mastitis, it's OK to continue to breastfeed, but your baby may refuse to nurse on the side with the infection. And, since you may need to take antibiotics to treat mastitis, you should see your doctor. Body Products: Any lotions, creams, soaps, perfumes, oils, or ointments that you put on your breasts can add different flavors to your breast milk as your baby nurses. If you use any body products on or near your breasts, be sure to wash your breasts well before breastfeeding your baby. Tasting Your Own Breast Milk If you're concerned about the flavor of your breast milk, or you just want to know how it will taste to you, you can try it. Breast milk is a natural, healthy food, and it will not hurt you. There is nothing wrong or disgusting about trying your own breast milk. Can Your Partner Try Your Breast Milk? Sometimes husbands or partners are curious and want to taste breast milk as well. It is OK to let them try it, too. If your partner wants to try it in a cup, just be sure you don't have a health issue that you could pass on through your milk. If your partner wants to try it from your breast, then be sure your partner doesn't have any health issues such as thrush or herpes that could transfer to your skin and affect you and your baby. Tasting Someone Else's Breast Milk It's OK to try another person's breast milk if you know their health history and understand the risk involved. Breast milk is a body fluid. Therefore, it is possible to contract an infectious disease, including HIV, from drinking someone else's breast milk. You should always be smart and use common sense because it can, of course, be dangerous to try the milk from another person's breast.

Andrew Plotkin and Steve Pearlman of Class IV Productions are executive producing the project alongside Wheeler.
This class facilitates building frameworks of several classes that inter-operate. It was first designed and built for "HTML::Mason", in which the Compiler, Lexer, Interpreter, Resolver, Component, Buffer, and several other objects must create each other transparently, passing the appropriate parameters to the right class, possibly substituting their own subclass for any of these objects. The main features of "Class::Container" are: * Declaration of parameters used by each member in a class framework * Transparent passing of constructor parameters to the class that needs them * Ability to create one (automatic) or many (manual) contained objects automatically and transparently
Light-Emitting Diode (LED) is an optoelectronic device composed of p-type semiconductor and n-type semiconductor and emitting the light by means of the recombination of carriers at p-n interface. LED has the advantages of small volume, low power consumption, long working lifetime, and fast reaction speed. Therefore, light-emitting diodes are widely used in optical display devices, traffic lights, information storage apparatus, communication devices, illuminant devices and medical instruments.
Participants in active sports such as hockey and football wear garments and protective gear. After participating in the sport, the garments and gear can become dirty and wet from the player's perspiration. Some players place the garments and gear into a bag or into a pile within a locker, which can produce mildew and foul odors. A solution to this problem is the proper air drying of the garments and gear.
Avicii Interview The Biggest DJ In The World Sets The Record Straight DM: What’s the hardest thing about your job?TB: The traveling. Beyond that, I would say the kind of attention you get. I’ve never liked being recognized on the streets or being in the spotlight. I love DJing, but at the same time, I hate being in the spotlight. It’s weird. DM: But you’re also the face of Ralph Lauren’s Denim & Supply line.TB: Yes, but that was a lot of fun. I just did a shoot for the next collection. They’re coming out with some really cool custom stuff — hats, jackets and shirts — a lot of different items. Right from the start, Ralph Lauren has been one of the best relationships we’ve had. We’ve done so much together and they’ve been a huge asset in general, and, honestly, their clothes are what I would normally wear. If I’d gone with other brands, I might have felt like I had sold out, but with a brand like Ralph Lauren, I was already wearing their clothes. It was kind of an easy decision to begin something with them. DM: And you’re very involved with your charity, House for Hunger.TB: We just donated a million euros towards hunger relief in Africa and Sweden, and we did the same with feeding America — a million dollars. From the start, me and my manager wanted to try to fill a charitable void in the EDM scene. We try to involve House for Hunger in anything we can. During the Winter Music Conference this year, we produced a charity show and had a branded hotel. All the profits went to charity. We are also doing joint ventures with the House for Hunger and Ralph Lauren, and we’re trying to involve all our friends and other artists. It’s been a great way to give back.

Fully distributed containment control for second-order multi-agent systems with communication delay. In this paper, fully distributed containment control problems of multi-agent systems with double-integrator dynamics are investigated under directed topologies. For the cases with and without communication delay, two new fully distributed control protocols are designed, which do not need any global information of the communication topology graph. Necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained to ensure the solvability of the considered containment control problems. Particularly, for the case with communication delay, the critical value of the maximum allowable time delay of containment control is found. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
Human body is as much sensitive as it is rough. It is inherent to the human being to adapt to the changing conditions and live accordingly. However, one has to keep in mind the drastic change in weather conditions or certain body weakness. Either of them can result in very harmful effects to the interior and exterior of body. And then come the long winding summers, which force you to come under the sun. Those who are very conscious of their skin and body have to face the worst times as there is virtually no place where they can feel safe from the hazardous sunlight rays including ultraviolet A and ultraviolet B rays. So, how does one maintain the normal skin and avoid any burns, damages during the summer. Here are some of the suggestions that must be on your fingertips all the time. Excessive Use of Sunscreen Use of sunscreen during the summer is absolutely unavoidable. If you want to maintain a certain smoothness and beauty of your skin, then do not hesitate to apply sunblock and sunscreen all the time. Many experts suggest that despite many claims, women actually do not put enough sunscreen on their faces and skins. Plus there are so many outstanding brands making effective and exceptional sunscreens these days that one cannot help but try each one of them. For a quicker access to popular brands like L’Oréal Sunscreens, Chanel sunblock, you can look around these products at online marketplaces like Kaymu, which offer free delivery at your home. Some of the best sunscreens include Aveeno Protect + Hydrate and L’Oréal Sublime Sun. the former sunscreen helps maintain the hydration level of the skin. It is also oil repellent. The latter however, secures your skin a step further and destroy and ultraviolet rays coming towards you. Timely Exfoliation Though it doesn’t require any reminder but timely exfoliation is very crucial in having a spotless and smooth skin during the sweltering summers. Basically the hairless skin allows you to make good use of cosmetics, especially sunscreen. Otherwise, it is difficult to apply cleanser and other cosmetics. There are certain online shopping centers in Bangladesh that are doing some impressive job in providing the skincare material and other cosmetics. These include ushop.com.bd and iferi.com. Protecting Hands and Feet Too Some women usually leave aside these parts of the body considering them not much prone to damages. In fact, in reality, such ignorance shows its results immediately in the form of wrinkles etc. So, alongside sun blocking and protecting your face with moisturizers, protect your hands and feet too. Keep the Body Hydrated This is the key solution to many skin problems. If you keep your body hydrated, your skin will remain fresh and intact. All skin needs is enough H2O and it is good to go. Minimum eight glass of water is important for a plain smooth skin. So, yeah, hurry up and fill your belly with some fresh water.
[Necessary diagnosis before and reliable examinations after surgical interventions in chronic inflammatory bowel diseases]. The primary diagnosis of chronic inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis) is performed by standardized procedures in specialized Gastroenterology Departments or Ambulances. For the assessment of disease activity the clinical presentation of the patient is most important. This is also true for the indication for surgical interventions. In certain instances laboratory markers, endoscopic and histologic examinations, ultrasound, X-ray, and cross-sectional imaging like computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) give important additional informations. Depending on the clinical situation surgeons and gastroenterologists decide on the most useful technical examinations for planning the operative strategy. After surgery, diagnostic procedures focus on disease progression and complications. Disturbances of intestinal function as consequence of the operation have also to be considered in the routine diagnostic program.
Strategies for the selective regulation of kinases with allosteric modulators: exploiting exclusive structural features. The modulation of kinase function has become an important goal in modern drug discovery and chemical biology research. In cancer-targeted therapies, kinase inhibitors have been experiencing an upsurge, which can be measured by the increasing number of kinase inhibitors approved by the FDA in recent years. However, lack of efficacy, limited selectivity, and the emergence of acquired drug resistance still represent major bottlenecks in the clinic and challenge inhibitor development. Most known kinase inhibitors target the active kinase and are ATP competitive. A second class of small organic molecules, which address remote sites of the kinase and stabilize enzymatically inactive conformations, is rapidly moving to the forefront of kinase inhibitor research. Such allosteric modulators bind to sites that are less conserved across the kinome and only accessible upon conformational changes. These molecules are therefore thought to provide various advantages such as higher selectivity and extended drug target residence times. This review highlights various strategies that have been developed to utilizing exclusive structural features of kinases and thereby modulating their activity allosterically.

Analog-to-digital conversion is commonly used in a wide variety of applications, where one or more analog signals are converted to digital format via an analog-to-digital converter (or ADC) at a fixed sample-rate for recording, transmission, filtering, enhancement or further processing. Generally speaking, a higher resolution or increased number of significant bits in the conversion is desirable for improved dynamic range to reduce the chances of clipping, while at the same time, minimizing quantization noise. In many applications such as digital audio recording, several ADC's may be used simultaneously. In some applications, the presence of a high resolution ADC may eliminate or reduce the need for limiters that would otherwise introduce distortion.

Q: Laravel: display multi data in one row for every user How I can display multi data in one row with foreign key by id user for example: I have users with multi ticket, i need to display for every user number of his tickets in one column. this my controller public function followticket() { $data = DB::table('tickets') ->join('users', 'users.id', '=', 'tickets.user_id') ->select('users.', 'tickets.')->get(); return view('Admin.suivi-tickest',compact('data')); } A: You can try with laravel model relationship User model public function tickets(){ return $this->hasMany('App\Ticket', 'user_id'); } Controller public function followticket() { $users = User::withCount('tickets')->get(); return view('Admin.suivi-tickest',compact('users')); } OR If using query builder then you can try like this $users = DB::table('users') ->join('tickets', 'users.id', '=', 'tickets.user_id') ->select('users.', DB::raw('count() as tickets_count')) ->groupBy('id') ->get(); Template @foreach($users as $user) {{$user->id}} {{$user->email}} {{$user->tickets_count}} @endforeach
[Paget's deforming osteodysttophy]. The present clinical aspects of Paget's osteodystrophy are reviewed. The nosological definition, localiztion, natural course and signs are described and the recent description of "rheumatoid manifestations" in Paget's disease by FRANCK et al. is mentioned. The same authors revealed a positive correlation between the grade of extenstion of Paget's disease in the whole skeleton and the concentration values for alkaline phosphatase and uric acid in the serum. Among the complications of Paget's disease the orthopedic, neurological, haemodynamic, oncologic, hematological and dermatological are reviewed X-ray of the involved skeleton, which in most cases is diagnostic, may be supported by isotope scanning with 18F or 87mSr and bone biopsy for establishment of diagnosis. Current drug therapy is confined to diphosphonate and calcitonin. The antibiotic mithramycin, which is cytotoxic, reduces bone turnover and may improve the course in Paget's disease. However, toxic side effects on kidney, liver and hemopoiesis do not allow its further therapeutic use in this disease. A case is described which demonstrates that a spontaneous or traumatic fracture in the area of osteodystrophy exhibits almost the same potential for conso lidation as normal bone tissue following both conservative and osteosynthetic treatment of the fracture. In a further instance corrective osteotomy with osteosynthesis (plate) because of serious varisation and antecurvature of the femur due to Paget's disease were performed sucessfully without assisting drug therapy. A third patient displayed extensive osteodystrophy of the whole pelvic skeleton, which was discovered by X-ray as rehabilitation following CVA failed to progress due to severe bilateral reduction of hip joint function. In view of the age and general status of the patient and the absence of pain, no medication or surgical therapy was performed in this case.
Q: What is the name of the "[ ]" functionality that can be added to a wordpress blog or page? Please feel free to format the question title. I have been coding a few plugins, and I want a plugin that I can call directly from a page or blog post. I have seen lots of plugins implement a "[]" on the page/blog editor and I am trying to replicate that behavior. For example: I want the functionality to write a blogpost, and call this function that echos "Hello world!". Hello this is a page. [hello] And the output would be: Hello this is a page. Hello world! What is this functionality called and if I could get an example on how to code it? Thanks! A: shortcode Here's the docs: http://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode_API Simplest form is: function foobar_func( $atts ){ return "foo and bar"; } add_shortcode( 'foobar', 'foobar_func' ); Then calling [foobar] in any post / page, will call the defined function foobar_func.
The United States health care system under managed care. How the commodification of health care distorts ethics and threatens equity. Describing the U.S. health care system means describing managed care under commercial forces. Managed care creates new moral tension for practitioners, but more importantly, in its current form it intensifies the commercialization of health expectations and interactions. The largely unregulated marketing of health services under managed care has been a major factor in the increasing number of uninsured citizens, while claims for cost reduction through managed care are equivocal. Risk-rating practices integral to the current medical marketplace thwart concerns for justice in allocation and create vulnerabilities for almost everyone. The political-moral concern of the early 1990s for a right to health care is nowhere in sight.
Sudden cardiac death in the indeterminate phase of Chagas' disease associated with acute infarction of the right carotid body. We recently came across a case of a patient in the indeterminate phase of Chagas' disease who died suddenly with cardiac arrhythmia associated with acute infarction of the right carotid body due to occlusive thrombosis in the glomic artery. Although the available data in this case do not offer definite evidence to support a cause-and-effect relationship between carotid body infarction and patient's sudden cardiac arrest, it is very likely that the acute infarction of the carotid body could be the distinct morphological counterpart of the functional disturbance. The infarction would affect the vagal-sympathetic interactions augmenting sympathetic action.
"There is a crisis with the Americans and it needs to be addressed as a crisis," Finance Minister Yair Lapid said Saturday after ongoing tensions between Washington and Jerusalem led US officials to block Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon from meeting with senior administration officials during his current US visit. Follow Ynetnews on Facebook and Twitter "We mustn't pretend there isn't a crisis," Lapid told a crowd in Tel Aviv Saturday. "Our relations with the US are vital and everything that can be done must be done to end this crisis." Finance Minister Yair Lapid / Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon (Photo: Eli Mendelbaum / Ido Erez) Earlier on Friday, Ynet revealed that the Obama administration refused the Israeli defense minister's request to meet with other top officials, including Vice President Joe Biden, Secretary of State John Kerry, and the National Security Advisor Susan Rice. Since then, reports have said the same officials tried to prevent Ya'alon from meeting with the US UN ambassador Samantha Power – and when the two did meet, Ya'alon reportedly heard mostly of Power's objection to settlement construction. During the last bout of US-led peace talks, Ya'alon dubbed Kerry's diplomatic efforts "obsessive and messianic," saying "Kerry should win his Nobel and leave us in peace." Ya'alon's current treatment is said to be an attempt to settle the score. Ya'alon did hold a successful meeting with his US counterpart, Chuck Hagel, indicating that the reason for the cold shoulder was more a testament to personal tensions between Ya'alon and the White House than an attempt to sabotage Israel's relations with the US. Related stories: Nonetheless, Lapid, who has locked horns with Ya'alon over peace talks and the defense budget, said "I thought I knew, but now I know the full extent to which our relations with the US are vital to our economy and security." "The US needs to be thanked, we must remember that when we talk about Operation Protective Edge, we used technology and funds from America. We need to act with more respect. Disagreements are part of the deal and the Americans respect that," he said. No comment The White House and State Department declined to comment on internal deliberations about who Ya'alon should see. "I can't speak to any meetings that didn't occur," White House press secretary Josh Earnest told reporters. The defense ministry also did not issue an official response, but sources close to Ya'alon said that "the aim of the trip was to meet with Hagel and the top security echelon in the US, and that happened. These meetings proved once again the strength of the ties between the defense establishments and between Ya'alon and Hagel." The rejection was diplomatic blowback from Ya'alon's remarks on Kerry, which were first revealed by Yedioth Ahronoth in the spring. The Israeli politician had called the top US diplomat "messianic and obsessive" behind closed doors, adding that "the only thing that could save us is Kerry winning a Nobel Peace Prize and leaving us alone." Ya'alon also infuriated officials in Washington with comments accusing the administration of being weak on Iran and by questioning the US commitment to Israel's security. That followed reports that Ya'alon had criticized Kerry for being unrealistic and naive in trying to forge an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal. Ya'alon said he and Hagel had also talked about the conflicts in Iraq and Syria and the US-Israel defense partnership. Between Israel and the United States, he said, "arguments exist, but we must remember that the US is Israel's most important strategic ally in every respect."
During an interview on the Fox News Channel following the cancellation of his speech at UC-Berkeley, Breitbart Editor Milo Yiannopoulous stated that “[M]y whole thing is, the left is profoundly antithetical to free speech these days, does not want to hear alternative points of view, and will do anything to shut them down. My point is being proven to me over and over and over again.” And that the US isn’t far away from the atmosphere that exists in places that have hate speech laws in the UK. Milo said that students who just wanted to hear what he had to see, some of whom don’t necessarily agree with him were stopped by violence from the left, that “is terrified of anyone who they think might be persuasive or might be interesting or might take people with them. You know, I am not a scary far-right, kind of neo-Nazi as some of the protesters claim. … Instead, I’m just a libertarian, gay, Trump-supporting provocateur who likes present interesting arguments. We have good, fun shows with huge, sold out audiences. … [The left] just cannot tolerate anyone on their campus who does not subscribe to their own crazy views.” He added, “[M]y whole thing is, the left is profoundly antithetical to free speech these days, does not want to hear alternative points of view, and will do anything to shut them down. My point is being proven to me over and over and over again.” Milo further stated that the police at Berkeley appeared to take “a very hands-off approach until the very last minute.” He later stated that college campuses are some of the most oppressive places to free speech he’s ever been to, and the US is culturally “not that far away from” the atmosphere that exists in the UK thanks to its hate speech laws.

Cervicogenic headache: the controversial headache. Cervicogenic headache is characterized by unilaterality without sideshift, and the pain attack starts in the neck, in contradistinction to what is the case in common migraine. Signs of neck involvement (e.g. reduction of the range of motion; mechanical precipitation of attacks; ipsilateral, diffuse arm/shoulder pain) are typical in cervicogenic headache but not in common migraine. These and many other features aid in distinguishing these two headaches.

Graduate Awards/Honors: T32 Computational neuroscience training grant Undergraduate or Post-bac Research: I worked with Akira Sawa at Johns Hopkins University studying the neurobiology of schizophrenia and mood disorders. We utilized genetic models and pharmacological agents to assess behavioral endophenotypes associated with those diseases. What Got You Interested in Research? I was originally interested in figuring out why people do what we do and why our conscious experience is the way it is. While studying psychology in high school, I realized that neuroscience has the potential to provide truly mechanistic, reductive explanations for cognitive phenomena. I was hooked after that.
The present invention relates to an optical unit including a plurality of lenses and a camera and optical equipment which incorporate the optical unit. Conventionally, an optical unit of optical equipment such as a camera includes a plurality of lenses, and the focal length and magnification can be adjusted by exchanging and moving part of the lenses. When lenses are exchanged, however, manhours are required for exchanging lenses, and there exists a risk that dust enters the interior of a camera when lenses are exchanged. In addition, when the lenses are moved, since the shapes of the lenses themselves do not change, there is imposed a limitation on the range of adjustment. Incidentally, in recent years, optical units have been developed which incorporate lenses in which an optical property such as focal length can be adjusted or so-called variable property lenses. According to these optical units, it is considered that the optical properties of the whole optical unit can be adjusted over a wide range by adjusting the optical properties of the variable property lenses. However, even in the event that the optical properties of the lenses can be changed, expert knowledge and a plenty of experience is required in order to design an optical unit by combining the optical properties of the respective lenses. Due to this, it is difficult for ordinary users to adjust the optical properties of the optical unit to their own preferences. A problem that the invention is to solve is to provide an optical unit, a camera and optical equipment which can facilitate the acquiring of a desired optical property.

Mechanistic considerations of guanidine-catalyzed reactions. This feature article discusses the various mechanistic aspects of guanidine-catalyzed reactions. Guanidines are well known as strong organic bases; however, in the first section, three most common commercially available guanidines, TMG, TBD and MTBD, will be used to illustrate the use of guanidines as nucleophilic catalysts. In the second section, different modes of hydrogen bonding interactions of the conjugate acid of guanidine, the guanidinium, are discussed. Particularly interesting are the possibilities of mono-functional or bifunctional activation of a nucleophile and an electrophile by guanidinium.
Q: Bumper sticker: "Eat Local" For a great while, I have always thought that the bumper sticker "Eat Local" was grammatically incorrect. I was under the impression it should say "Eat Locally." But, now, for some reason, I am starting to reconsider. Which is correct? Thank you. A: "Eat Local" is a slogan, not a complete sentence. Yes, as a sentence it is not grammatically correct. "Local" is an adjective, but there is no noun for it to modify. "Eat locally" is a grammatically correct sentence. "Locally" is an adverb modifying the verb "eat". But slogans are not expected to be complete, grammatically-correct sentences, so it's not necessarily "wrong" as is. Either way, I'm not sure what it's supposed to mean. The plain literal interpretation of "eat locally" is that it is an injunction to eat at restaurants in your home town or to eat in your own home. Is that what they mean? Is this a bumper sticker from the local restaurant association or grocery store? I'm wondering if what they mean is to eat locally-produced food. Like here in Michigan the state has a campaign to encourage residents of the state to eat food grown in the state. A: As it is commonly used on that bumper sticker, eat local has the meaning eat locally. Sort of. Maybe. Grammatically speaking, eat local without other context would be taken to mean "local is a thing, and you should consume it". As local is not a noun in common usage, this is bad grammar. Eat locally produced [stuff] is the true meaning behind the bumper sticker. It is an encouragement to support business/agriculture/etc in the immediate area. Theoretically, it is better to purchase goods/services from nearby, thereby contributing to a local economy, than to support nameless faceless corporations hundreds of miles away. Why eat local then, if it is incorrect? Who knows? Informal English can ignore grammaticality when pithiness or brevity or just plain humor are "improved" through incorrect usage. Times and places to do this are out of scope for this question, but "rules were made to be broken", and English is no exception.
Councillors tell DOC it is hurting farmers Relevant offers Regional councillors have told the Department of Conservation it should sort its own backyard before sticking its nose into the One Plan. Damian Coutts and Ben Reddix, the conservators collectively responsible for an area from Taranaki and the Central Plateau down to Wellington and Wairarapa spoke to a Horizons Regional Council meeting yesterday. While the pair were welcomed by most councillors, some took the opportunity to criticise DOC's record and its Environment Court challenge to the One Plan. Cr John Barrow said DOC's legal challenge to the One Plan had cost farmers "millions and millions" of dollars in lost revenue. "You work against farmers, you work against this region," he said. Mr Coutts said he would not apologise for DOC's advocacy position on the One Plan. Cr Barrow, along with councillors Murray Guy and Gordon McKellar, pointed out several areas where they thought DOC's management of conservation land was lacking. "When are you going to start doing work on DOC land rather than telling private owners what to do and putting them out of business?" Cr McKellar said. Mr Reddix said about a third of New Zealand's land was conservation land and DOC had to prioritise its spending of the money it received from the Government. "We do not have enough money to manage that [land] to the desired standard, we're constantly making all sorts of prioritisation calls. Some areas simply cannot be resourced for pest management." Cr Jill White said it was important that Horizons and DOC kept communicating. despite their differences at times. "Congratulations on how you dealt with some of the comments; there are vested interests around this table."
Actisanes Actisanes (Gr. ) was a legendary king of Ethiopia who conquered Egypt. He founded the city of Rhinocolura on the confines of Egypt and Syria, and was succeeded by Mendes, an Egyptian. Diodorus Siculus says that Actisanes conquered Egypt in the reign of Amasis. Some scholars have read this as Amasis II, while others have suggested a reading of Ammosis. However, Amasis II, the contemporary of Cyrus the Great, cannot be meant. References Category:Rulers of Ethiopia
FARGO - Tuesday night, Facebook around NDSU blew up with warnings for people to watch out for a sign, promising students work if they called their number. "I was just scrolling through Facebook and I saw a bunch of my friends were sharing this post," said NDSU Senior Alex Dahlquist. listen live watch live The post claims the sign isn't actually a business looking for student employees, but rather recruiting people for sex trafficking. "I've heard that they're scary and not to contact whoever they are and take them down and throw them away," said NDSU Junior Heather Vikre. That might explain why WDAY News wasn't able to find any signs around campus. The post had people convinced that this was actually sex trafficking, so WDAY News dug into the claims. NDSU senior, Alexa Dahlquist was also skeptical. "I looked up the phone number to see if I could trace back to where it came from," Dahlquist said. With a simple Google search, we found out that number and company on the sign has nothing to do with sex trafficking. It’s actually a multi-level marketing company called Vector that recruits people to sell knives for Cutco. "They should market that and maybe put their logo out there maybe give more of a description on their signs just so people can be more aware and not say hey that looks a little sketchy maybe I shouldn't contact them," said Vikre. WDAY News made a phone call to NDSU professor of communications, Dave Westerman, who describes social media as a sort of a double-edged sword. It's a great way to spread accurate information, but it's also easy for rumors to spread. Especially if you learn it from someone close to you. "I think people are so quick to believe something their friend shared or if it was on Facebook rather than on news sources sometimes," said Dahlquist. When it comes down to it, if you see something fishy on Facebook, a good lesson, just do a little fact checking before you hit that share button.
Quiet Reflections and Prayers From a State of Prayer There was pain in returning to wholeness. It was painful to reach back to parts of myself stuck in the past. And it was painful to begin to feel the pain of others as my own pain. But there was no turning back. There was a tenderness in tapping into truth that I was unwilling to let go of again. And so I continued to meet each unfolding moment from a state of prayer — trusting in life to meet me. It felt like a huge risk. I had been in that place before.
Isolation and characterization of two novel root-specific promoters in rice (Oryza sativa L.). Novel root-specific promoters are important for developing methods to drive root-specific gene expression for nutrient and water absorption. RT-PCR (reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction) analysis identified high expression levels of Os03g01700 and Os02g37190 in root tissues across developmental stages in comparison with the constitutive genes OsAct1 (rice Actin1 gene), OsUbi1 (rice polyubiquitin rubi1 gene), and OsCc1 (rice cytochrome c gene). The copy numbers of Os03g01700 and Os02g37190 were evaluated by qRT-PCR. The results showed that Os03g01700 and Os02g37190 transcripts were highly accumulated in the examined root tissues but were not detected in young embryos or leaves at the indicated days after germination or in the panicle, in contrast to the ubiquitous expression of OsAct1, OsUbi1, and OsCc1. Additionally, the promoter regions of these two genes were linked to the GUSplus reporter gene and transformed into rice. GUS staining of the transgenic plants showed that the Os03g01700 and Os02g37190 promoters were active in primary and secondary roots throughout the developmental stages, except in root hairs. The GUSPlus transcript levels were also highly root-specific in the transgenic rice. Overall, the two promoters are highly active in the root tissues of rice and can be useful for the root-specific enhancement of target gene(s).

Q: it's possible configure a persistence.xml for multiple data sources? hi i just want to know how configure in a persistence.xml two datasources one of the data sources have a jar outside from the other. I'm tried but i really don't if it's possible A: Yeah, you can have two datasources configured in a persistence.xml. You would just need two separate elements. <persistence> <persistence-unit name="datasourceOne"> <jta-data-source>java:/DefaultDS</jta-data-source> <jar-file>../MyApp.jar</jar-file> <class>org.acme.Employee</class> <class>org.acme.Person</class> <class>org.acme.Address</class> <properties> <property name="hibernate.dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.HSQLDialect"/> <property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="create-drop"/> </properties> </persistence-unit> <persistence-unit name="datasourceTwo"> <!-- some configuration --> </persistence-unit> </persistence>
Q: Can params keyword be expressed via WSDL definition The application I am developing is exposing service metadata for a WCF service implementing following service contract: [ServiceContract] public interface IService { [OperationContract] object Execute( string action, params object[] args ); } After adding service reference I noticed that there is no params keyword in the service contract and its implementation in the generated Reference.cs file. Is there params counterpart in WSDL definition? Or is params something that is specific to C# and cannot be expressed via WSDL definition so service client generator does not know that params should be added during generation? A: params is just syntactic sugar which allows you calling the method expecting array of objects without passing the prepared array. WCF doesn't know anything about this - it should just expect array of objects. Btw. passing array of object to service operation can leads to multiple problems because if you pass an custom object as parameter WCF may not know how to serialize the object.
Social Life Cycle Assessment for Industrial Biotechnology. This chapter focuses on social assessment methods (known as SLCA) applied to industrial biotechnology (IB), which are part of the "life cycle" approach. IB is a heading for a set of different technologies. The first section presents a review of the literature to provide an analysis of the results and limitations of IB SLCA studies, with the main focus on the biofuel industries. Often conducted via a social performance analysis based on CSR (corporate social responsibility) criteria, most studies provide little new information. Nevertheless, there are some studies on the change caused by the emergence of an IB. These studies use national accounts input-output tables, which allow us to predict impacts. The second section suggests rules to follow in order to achieve a "good" SLCA in the field of IB, in other words, to be able to anticipate the main known impacts or at least to carry out the assessment in a rigorous and transparent fashion. The conclusion focuses on the prospects and challenges of IB SLCA, in a world which is experiencing immense upheaval. Graphical Abstract.

Effect of diltiazem and dantrolene on the contractility of isolated malignant hyperpyrexia-susceptible porcine skeletal muscle. Diltiazem inhibited and antagonized the abnormal contractures induced by halothane, caffeine and potassium chloride in isolated skeletal muscle from pigs susceptible to malignant hyperpyrexia (MHS). Contractile responses to caffeine and electrical stimulation also were suppressed by diltiazem in control tissue. Similar effects were obtained in the presence of dantrolene. In both MHS and control preparations, diltiazem antagonized caffeine-induced contractures in the presence of maximal effective concentrations of dantrolene, and the converse was true also. In MHS and control preparations detubulated by glycerol, diltiazem did not inhibit or antagonize caffeine-induced contractures while dantrolene did. Diltiazem seems to modify contractile responses at the level of the transverse tubule membrane by inhibiting the inward flow of extracellular Ca2+, while dantrolene inhibits Ca2+ release directly from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Ca2+ influx through transverse tubules may be important in the aetiology of the MH syndrome.
What is the central theme to this everlastin’ spoof? A collection of writings & thoughts from an enthusiast, educator, friend, curious cat, & so forth. It’s a glorious feeling. Buck Buck’s got an untameable beard – the man under the big top in a pinstriped suit brandishing a chair & whip couldn’t control his dirty thatch of greying split ends. Pushing his cart of knicks & knacks through lakeside intersections in the mild afternoon, he smiles thru his seven teeth. Shoot the breeze with him in front of the Coffee with a Beat cafe on Grand and you’ll discover he’s an absolutely avid sci-fi fan, has seen all the 70s & 80s classics back in his foster days, and, in fact, is related to roughly half of the films’ principal actors & protaganists (so he tells me from time to time). We have a cup & a chat once in a while. He claims he’s a five product guy: cigs & joe, franks, beans & pie. Always wondered where he sleeps, but to ask seems impolite. Memory sharp, mind alive, a little crazy but half alright.
The next time the Doctor sees her, he is alone and half broken as a result of saving Amy and Rory.He lands the TARDIS and opens the door, only to be run over by her and all her magnificence.River Song shuts the door with a "Hello, Sweetie", and he asks where she needs to go this time.She laughs. "Oh, Doctor. I don't need to go anywhere. I was simply eager to begin our adventures like you promised me. But first, let's get married".Stammering, the Doctor accepts her on board as a semi-permanent addition (no one ever stays, not really, and he knows that this is the case for her- his past is her future). He really doesn't have the strength to question or fight her; he only has the strength to maybe accept that she can heal him. The TARDIS hums with glee. (&) On the fourth night in, they make love, which he's going to assume is their first time from both perspectives, since he's only certain of what happens to her in his past now, since now everything is timey-wimey and he is just lost in the senselessness that is her and their situation.However, the Doctor is a curious man, so he can't help but ask."River, was this your first time?"She murmurs as she awakens from her state of half-sleep."No, it wasn't. There have been others, sweetie; surely you've had others too".And the Doctor finds it odd because she had always seemed predestined to love him and only him; but then again, a pretty, rebellious girl in Leadworth was a rarity, and she must have attracted lots of attention. He remembers earlier that night when she came to him, telling him that he was broken, and to please, let her heal him.She pressed her lips to the Doctor's tenderly and with passion.The Doctor absentmindedly reaches his hands to his lips and wonders how she could have ever kissed someone else like the way she kissed him tonight. "River. River."She mumbles quietly, which he takes as her assent to go ahead."Who was your first lover?"She chuckles softly, as if any noise would disturb the peace that has come over the TARDIS."His name was Danny Smith, if I remember correctly.""Such a generic name to be matched with such a magnificent person, don't you think?""Well, he was magnificent himself. Not only in that area, but every girl in the college had her eyes on him. I won that race, of course; I refused to let anyone else claim him as hers.""What happened to him?"Here River let out a huge roar. "He's married to a lovely man now. I guess he grew tired of all other women after dating me. There was only ever one man who could ever handle me, I suppose."And who's that?"She smacks him lightly, to insinuate his stupidity in that moment."You, sweetie. Let's go to sleep, shall we?" The Doctor is about to drift off to sleep when he realizes he never got an answer to his question."River," he says, shaking her. "Was tonight our mutual first time?"She just murmurs:"Spoilers". In other matters, I barely ship Eleven/River and was DEVASTATED by Amy and Rory's departure on Saturday night. I've got a little project planned for that, so stay tuned. Title credit goes to the Cold War Kids' song Skip the Charades.So, did this meet or exceed expectations? Or completely let them down? Let me know! The author would like to thank you for your continued support. Your review has been posted.

Q: Is it good practice to assign a system account for database owner? I can see the owners of my databases usign this query SELECT name , SUSER_SNAME(owner_sid) FROM sys.databases What are the things I should consider when choosing an account for database owner (account fro dbo user)? I'm thinking about a scenario when I assing normal admin account for database owner and when the time passes this account is disabled from AD when the ownwer of this account leaves his job. Is it good practice to assign a system account for database owner? A: I advocate having databases owned by a Windows account (login). If using Mixed mode, sa could be used, but sa is a bit anonymous for my comfort. Users owning databases (sometimes seen on dev database servers) doesn't work in production. Like @nopol I prefer using Windows groups to reduce the number of logins under SQL Server, but groups can't own SQL Server databases.

[Being with the carer: a dimension of the caring process]. This study presents one of the dimensions of the caring process in nursing, under the nurses' view, in a hospital reality. It was brought to understanding through a qualitative study with a phenomenological-hermeneutical approach. One of the dimensions revealed was to be with the carer in the world of the cared patient which revealed the following constructs: the being-there of the nursing carer; sharing decision making processes; sharing knowledge; building up a caring relationship. The caring process in nursing manifests itself by meeting caring among carers, where the way of being of its existence happens in an authentic way, promoting an exchange of lived experiences, feelings and emotions, building up a caring relationship.

Q: Hover for touchscreens The site I am making has a hover menu, what is best practice to deal with this for touchscreens. How can I get it to work on mobile devices? I googled this and some responses suggest: :active So I tried a quick fiddle on an iPhone, but it doesn't appear to work. Whats the correct way to tackle this and why does my fiddle not work? Also is there a CSS only solution? A: For obvious reasons, the hover behavior doesn't work on touch devices. The most apparent solution is to make your menus activate on click, and if that's the case, I would recommend making that standard behavior for the desktop version as well. There's a case to made against hover menus because they just aren't as usable: http://uxmovement.com/navigation/why-hover-menus-do-users-more-harm-than-good/
The androgen-conjugating uridine diphosphoglucuronosyltransferase-2B enzymes are differentially expressed temporally and spatially in the monkey follicle throughout the menstrual cycle. UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) enzymes enhance the polarity of steroid hormones by catalyzing their conjugation with the sugar group from UDP-glucuronic acid. Previous results have shown that the monkey is a suitable animal model to study steroid glucuronidation in steroid target tissues. In humans, as in the monkey, the main androgen metabolites found in the circulation are 5alpha-androstane-3alpha,17beta-diol-glucuronide and androsterone glucuronide, and high levels of androsterone glucuronide were also measured in human follicular fluid. Ovarian androgens play a significant role as precursors for estrogens and may modulate the recruitment and growth of follicles. To analyze the expression pattern of UGT2B enzymes involved in androgen metabolism throughout the menstrual cycle, cynomolgus monkey ovaries were collected during the mid and late follicular and luteal phases. Microsomal proteins and total RNA were analyzed for UGT2B expression in the whole ovary. Western blot and specific RT-PCR analyses demonstrated no significant changes in the expression of UGT2B protein or transcripts during the menstrual cycle. Immunocytochemistry analysis showed that UGT2B proteins are expressed in the cytoplasm of thecal and granulosa cells of growing follicles. Interestingly, the thecal cells of secondary follicles and of corpus luteum were extensively stained, whereas luteal granulosa cells were not labeled. These results suggest an important regulation of cell type-specific UGT2B expression during follicular development. Previous results demonstrated similar changes in the expression of the androgen receptor. The colocalization of the androgen receptor and UGT2B enzymes in the same cell types of the ovary provide evidence for a potential role of glucuronidation as a modulator of the intracellular androgen response during follicular development.
Chemical approaches to glycobiology and emerging carbohydrate-based therapeutic agents. The contributions of cell surface oligosaccharides to critical biological processes such as leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion, bacterial and viral infection, and immunological recognition of tumor cells and foreign tissue are now understood in significant molecular detail. These discoveries at the forefront of biological research have motivated the design of synthetic glycoconjugates as tools for the fundamental study of glycobiology and as candidates for future generations of therapeutic and pharmaceutical reagents. During the past two years, significant progress has been made in the design and synthesis of carbohydrate-based inhibitors of selectins, receptors involved in the attachment of leukocytes to endothelial cells at sites of inflammation. Monomeric and multivalent oligosaccharides that bind to bacterial and viral receptors have been shown to abrogate infection by agents such as Helicobacter pilori, influenza virus and HIV. The identification of certain cell surface oligosaccharides as potent antigens has prompted their use in tumor vaccines, and inspired new approaches to the management of tissue rejection subsequent to xenotransplantation. To better understand how cell surface oligosaccharides function within their native context, novel chemical approaches to modulating cell surface oligosaccharides structures are now being developed. These stratergies for cell surface 'glycoform remodeling' promise to facilitate the investigation of carbohydrate mediated cell-cell interactions.
Monte Carlo simulations in drug release. We present methods based on simple sampling Monte Carlo simulations that are used in the study of controlled drug release from devices of various shapes and characteristics. The manuscript is part of a special tribute issue for Prof. Panos Macheras and we have chosen applications of the Monte Carlo method in the field of drug release that were pioneered by him and his research group. Thus, we focus on the investigation of diffusion based release and we present methods that go beyond the application of the classical fickian diffusion equation. We describe methods that have proven to be effective in illuminating the profound effects of the substrate heterogeneity on the drug release profiles and demonstrate some of the most powerful applications of agent based simulations and numerical methods in the field of pharmacokinetics.
Activation of silent synapses with sustained but not decremental long-term potentiation. Silent synapses display no excitatory post-synaptic currents (EPSCs) at resting potentials, but can conduct at depolarized potentials. In the hippocampal CA1 region of young animals, conversion of silent synapses to functional synapses occurs rapidly after pairing post-synaptic depolarization with 1Hz pre-synaptic stimulation, a protocol that also induces long-term potentiation (LTP). LTP appears to have a decremental phase and a sustained phase. Many studies have shown that decremental LTP can be pharmacologically isolated from sustained LTP, suggesting that they represent two distinct forms, rather than "phases" of LTP that are expressed simultaneously through different mechanisms. We investigated whether silent synapse activation (SSA) is associated specifically with the expression of sustained or decremental LTP. We found that under control conditions, in which sustained and decremental LTP were induced, SSA was observed. However, under conditions in which only decremental LTP was expressed (in the presence of a protein kinase antagonist), SSA did not occur. We conclude that SSA is associated with the expression of sustained LTP, not decremental LTP, and requires protein kinase activation. These findings support the hypothesis that decremental and sustained LTP are expressed through different mechanisms.
Congenital nystagmus (CN) is a conjugate, rhythmic eye movement disorder characterized by many different waveforms, ranging from jerk to pendular types. The causes of CN are unknown, and no detailed mechanisms have been proposed to explain the generation of the CN waveform. We have been making a detailed study of the eye movements seen in patients with congenital nystagmus. by studying the eye movement waveform under different visual stimulus conditions, we were able to show that instability in the neural integrator was a mechanism consistent with CN. We developed a hypothetical model of congenital nystagmus, and showed that a computer simulation of this model could account for a wide variety of CN waveforms. The basis of this model is an eye velocity feedback signal. This signal could arise from either a proprioceptive afferent signal or a central, efferent, eye velocity signal. In normal subjects, this feedback would have a negative sign and act to increase the time constant of a leaky neural integrator. In patients with CN, the sign of this pathway would be reversed, the positive velocity feedback making the system unstable. By adjusting parameters in the model it was possible to simulate various types of jerk and pendular CN waveforms.
Application of response surface methodology in the optimization of photocatalytic removal of environmental pollutants using nanocatalysts. Response surface methodology is a widely used technique for modelling and optimization of the photocatalytic treatment processes of water and wastewater. This methodology not only estimates linear, interaction and quadratic effects of the factors on the response, but also provides a prediction model for the response at the range of the variables studied and the optimum conditions to achieve the highest performance. The present paper reviews the results of application of this innovative methodology in modelling and optimization of the photocatalytic treatment processes. Different experimental designs including 3k factorial, Doehlert, Box-Behnken and central composite designs have been developed to describe the treatment processes of dyeing effluents, pharmaceutical agents and hazardous phenolic compounds. The results showed that response surface methodology can describe the behaviour of complex reaction systems, such as photocatalytic processes, in the range of experimental conditions adopted. Optimization based on response surface methodology can also estimate the conditions of the photocatalytic processes to achieve the highest performance.
Technical Field This application relates to managing multi-step storage management operations. Description of Related Art Computer systems may include different resources used by one or more host processors. Resources and host processors in a computer system may be interconnected by one or more communication connections. These resources may include, for example, data storage devices such as those included in the data storage systems manufactured by EMC Corporation. These data storage systems may be coupled to one or more servers or host processors and provide storage services to each host processor. Multiple data storage systems from one or more different vendors may be connected and may provide common data storage for one or more host processors in a computer system. A host processor may perform a variety of data processing tasks and operations using the data storage system. For example, a host processor may perform basic system I/O operations in connection with data requests, such as data read and write operations. Host processor systems may store and retrieve data using a storage device containing a plurality of host interface units, disk drives, and disk interface units. The host systems access the storage device through a plurality of channels provided therewith. Host systems provide data and access control information through the channels to the storage device and the storage device provides data to the host systems also through the channels. The host systems do not address the disk drives of the storage device directly, but rather, access what appears to the host systems as a plurality of logical disk units. The logical disk units may or may not correspond to the actual disk drives. Allowing multiple host systems to access the single storage device unit allows the host systems to share data in the device. In order to facilitate sharing of the data on the device, additional software on the data storage systems may also be used. RAID (Redundant Array of Independent or Inexpensive Disks) parity schemes may be utilized to provide error detection during the transfer and retrieval of data across a storage system (also known as storage arrays or arrays). In a common implementation, a Storage Area Network (SAN) is used to connect computing devices with a large number of storage devices. Management and modeling programs may be used to manage these complex computing environments. Storage Management Initiative Specification (SMI-S), and Common Information Model (CIM) technologies, are widely used for managing storage devices and storage environments. CIM is described further below. The SMI-S is a standard management interface that allows different classes of hardware and software products to interoperate for monitoring and controlling resources. For example, the SMI-S permits storage management systems to identify, classify, monitor, and control physical and logical resources in a SAN. The SMI-S is based on CIM, and Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) architecture. CIM is a model for describing management information, and WBEM is an architecture for using Internet technologies to manage systems and networks. The SMI-S uses CIM to define objects that represent storage entities such as Logical Unit Numbers (LUNs), disks, storage subsystems, switches, and hosts. (In many, but not all cases, the term “volume” or “logical volume” is interchangeable with the term “LUN”.) CIM also defines the associations that may or may not exist between these objects, such as a disk being associated to a storage subsystem because it physically resides in the storage subsystem. The CIM objects mentioned above may be managed by a CIM object manager (CIMOM). A storage management software application can use a CIM client to connect to a CIMOM, to retrieve information about the storage entities that the CIMOM manages, and also to perform active configuration of the storage entities. Storage management software that uses a CIM client may be called a CIM client application. For example, SMI-S describes how a current storage LUN is mapped. A CIM server is a CIMOM and a set of CIM providers. The SMI-S describes several methods for assigning a LUN from a disk storage system to a host, or for adding a LUN to a disk storage system. Multiple operations provide a convenient mechanism whereby multiple method invocations may be batched into a single HTTP Message, thereby reducing the number of roundtrips between a CIM client and a CIM server and allowing the CIM server to make internal optimizations. Multiple operations do not confer any transactional capabilities in the processing of the request (for example, there is no requirement that the CIM server guarantee that the constituent method calls either all failed or all succeeded, only that the entity make a “best effort” to process the operation). However, servers process each operation in a batched operation to completion before executing the next operation in the batch. In general, tasks such as assigning a LUN from a disk storage system to a host, and adding a LUN to a disk storage system, can be complex to execute. Other example tasks may include otherwise allocating storage, specifying the logical and/or physical devices used for the storage allocation, specifying whether the data should be replicated, the particular RAID level, and the like.
The oldest cavity filling materials presently being used are the "silver" fillings which are made by mixing a powdered metal with mercury to form a metallic material. This material remains formable and can be easily worked to fill a cavity drilled in a tooth by a dentist before permanently hardening. Generally, such materials are relatively easy to work, with even without assistance to the dentist from another person. A dentist can use his spatula to take a quantity of powdered metal and mix it with mercury to form a relatively hard, rigid mixture. This material may be loaded into an applicator which includes a cylindrical chamber and a plunger for depositing the material into a cavity in a tooth which has been drilled. Because of the nature of alloy filling materials, they are easily formulated and loaded into the applicator using only one hand. Likewise, once loaded into the applicator, the material may be applied to the cavity to be filled using a single hand. This leaves the other hand of the dentist free to retract the surrounding tissues as well as keep the field clear of saliva and other extraneous materials which otherwise may introduce impurities into the filling, changing its mechanical and physical properties. Thus the dentist is able to simultaneously prepare and apply filling material with one hand while keeping the field clear with the other. Recent years have seen a dramatic increase in the use of light-curable composite filling material. These filling materials, typically comprising silica or quartz mixed in a resin base, are typically sold to dentists in the form of tubes or screw and thread syringes. The composite materials used to fill cavities in the posterior teeth must withstand greater compressive force as compared to front teeth fillings. Composite filling materials used for posterior filling require greater compressive strength and are therefore more highly filled. This decreases their viscosity making necessary a greater mechanical advantage in order to dispense. As discussed above, prior art dental materials such as alloy or silver are made from relatively soft and workable materials which are loaded into an applicator and combine to over time form a permanently hardened filling. In contrast, because modern light-cured composite material must be prepared and packaged in their final form and as such are of relatively low viscosity it is necessary to use two hands to force the material from the tube. Likewise, in the case of screw type syringe packages, the syringe must be operated by rotation of the plunger within the syringe cylinder. Rotation is necessary because of the relatively non-viscous nature of the composite material and the force which must be exerted in order to force it from the syringe cylinder. In particular, the mechanical advantage provided by the screw and thread operation of the syringe results in generating relatively great pressure, thus forcing a relatively hard and non-viscous material out from the syringe. Nevertheless, despite the mechanical advantage provided by the screw and thread of the syringe it is necessary to use two hands in order to force the same to turn and to advance composite material from the syringe. In view of these limitations, it is customary for the dentist to have an assistant who operates the syringe while the dentist keeps the field clear with his hands. After a sufficient amount of material has been extruded by the assistant, the dentist may take the material from a place where it has been deposited (or directly from the syringe), using, for example, a spatula or the like. As can be seen from the above discussion, it is thus necessary to have twice the manpower present when the composite material is to be introduced into the drilled out cavity. Clearly the same involves additional cost. While the composite materials presently being used thus offer many advantages, they suffer from the drawback of being relatively inconvenient to use and expensive in terms of the labor required.

Q: Doxygen ignores @method i have some magic methodes but to have still auto complete functions in netbeans. I use above all classes a block like: /** * @method int getEavConfigId() get object id * @method Model_DbTable_EavConfig setEntityType(string $entity_type) set entity_type possible values site, user, pc, ticket, alarm ; eav field is realted to this table * @method string getEntityType() get entity_type possible values site, user, pc, ticket, alarm ; eav field is realted to this table * @method Model_DbTable_EavConfig setCompanyId(integer $company_id) set company_id * @method integer getCompanyId() get company_id * @method Model_DbTable_EavConfig setType(string $type) set type possible values textfield, textarea, radio, checkbox, select ; eav field type * @method string getType() get type possible values textfield, textarea, radio, checkbox, select ; eav field type */ For netbeans this works pretty good. But doxygen seams to ignore it totaly. Has someone an idea if it is possible to let doxygen accept the @method tag? I know that phpDocumentator can handle this. But i prever the documentations of doxygen, caused by several reasons. A: Doxygen has already implemented your problem solution and it is known as ALIASES. The definition of an alias should be specified in the configuration file using the ALIASES configuration tag. Simple aliases The simplest form of an alias is a simple substitution of the form name=value For example defining the following alias: ALIASES += sideeffect="\par Side Effects:\n" will allow you to put the command \sideeffect (or @sideeffect) in the documentation, which will result in a user-defined paragraph with heading Side Effects:. Note that you can put \n's in the value part of an alias to insert newlines. Also note that you can redefine existing special commands if you wish. Some commands, such as \xrefitem are designed to be used in combination with aliases. Hope this resolve your problem and for more info visit doxygen
Implications of trial results: the potentially misleading notions of number needed to treat and average duration of life gained. Consider a physician advising a patient to start antihypertensive treatment. He has the unenviable task of presenting often conflicting trial data in a comprehensible manner. He must justly represent the known risks and benefits such that his patient can make a reasonably Informed choice. Should the physician cite the number needed to treat or the average duration of life gained to clarify his explanations?
The EMax Avan propeller series are designed from the ground up to match todays motor and ESC deisngs. Each propeller is designed to match the power curve of current motors on the market. This gives the propellers a linear throttle response, great low end control, and incredible top speed. The matched power curve allows efficient transfer of power across the throttle band. Each propeller was designed using custom Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software. This CFD builds up the aerodynamics around a propeller using a Vortex Lattice Method including viscous and compressibility effects. This allows for an accurate performance measure in the design phase. Optimum design is chosen based off the Betz condition for a set design point. The design point is described as diameter, number of blades, speed, rpm, flight angle, and design thrust. The CFD then draws the optimum chord and blade angle distribution (Beta) along the radius to be the most efficient at that design point. This is done by modeling the shedding vortex filaments off each radial section along the blade and making them all shed off in a perfect rectangular screw (Betz Condition). Once the optimum design is set, performance is modeled across a range of speed and rpms (Advance ratio). With power and thrust known for all advance ratios, it is checked against the performance curve of the intended motor. Design conditions are then adjusted to utilize the maximum power available at each rpm from the performance curve of the set motor. This is then analyzed at different throttle positions, favoring the mid throttle range the design conditions are set. The Avan Flow was designed from the ground up starting from design constraints such as RPM, air speed, and required thrust. From these constraints aerodynamic models were built to predict performance and to design the blade shape. Highly cambered airfoils were used to achieve high lift coefficients at high angles of attack prolonging stall. This allows for a higher blade angle while still remaining efficient. The cambered airfoils also allow a greater flight envelope making for great low end responsiveness while still being able to achieve high speeds. A special Polycarbonate blend is used to achieve high durability. This material is incredibly tough and ductile to resist fracture in high impact crashes. A thick blade root was designed to further increase this durability. Our injection mold process is optimized to reduce bubbles in the plastic to increase the strength of the propeller.
Q: AWS instance private IP changing after stop/restart (did not happen before) Yes, I read an article by Eric Hammond here where he mentions that the private IP would also change when restarting. A few months ago, when I first got an AWS cluster up for hadoop, I used the internal IP to configure /etc/hosts and the internal IP wouldn't change (even when the instance is stopped, i can see the internal IP). To replicate this cluster as part of our corporate account, I created a few AMIs and used those to launch the instances. Now, the IPs are changing each time the machine is restarted. On checking the machines that did not have the IP change, there doesn't seem to be anything special about them. They are the same simple EBS backed instances with volumes. Hmm, so what's the difference between them? A: Check whether your EC2 instance is inside a VPC or not. Instances inside VPC will retain their private IP addresses when stopped and restarted. But instances outside VPC (ie. EC2-Classic) will change their private IP address when stopped and restarted. Unfortunately, it's not possible to move an EC2 instance from EC2-Classic to EC2-VPC. However, in many cases, you can create an AMI image of the instance and launch a new instance from the AMI inside the VPC.

It's designed in a relaxed, loose profile so you can pull it on over a couple of layers, and fitted with a slightly wide rollneck. It also comes in red. Shown here with Connolly jacket, Edward Green boots.
Abstract The gear meshing is very complex process as high non-linearity behaviour is involved during the process. Normally most analysis of gear tooth contact is on the basis of a hypothesis that the contacted gear teeth are cantilever beams to obtain the approximate results quickly. However, many important factors have been ignored in simulating gear tooth contact using cantilever beam hypothesis, those factors include tooth profile variations, gear rotation speed and input torque, coefficient of friction and geometry distortion. Many of non-linear responses such as noise, vibration, abrasion and so on make the actual contact process much more complicated than those in the cantilever beam hypothesis although it is a reliable reference for integrated gear performance investigation. The main contribution of this thesis is in the investigation of the typical static and dynamic performances of meshing gears by simulating gears rolling-sliding contact processes using non-linear finite element method. A typical spur gear model has been proposed first for performance analysis and the model with integrated parameters could contribute reliable finite element conditions to simulate actual gear meshing. The bending stress and its resultant stress of contacted teeth with static model and dynamic model have been then simulated and the results can be used to provide information on the contacted teeth stresses distribution. The detailed investigation of transmission error in gear meshing has been carried out to understand harmful noise and vibration of gear set and a micro geometry modification of gear tooth profile has been proposed, i.e. tip relief. The gear contact pressure distributions and transmission errors have been then analyzed with micro geometry modification and the analysis is under static and dynamic boundary conditions. Finally, the most significant contribution of the thesis is the investigation of the frictional effect on dynamic performance, including dynamic stress and transmission errors.

Q: How do I add parameters on Modelio, UML I can't really find how to add arguments on a Operation, how can I do it? The picture above is the program I use, Modelio... How do I add arguments on Operation? And how do I add a return value? A: First of all please find here the Modelio forum if you have any futher question (the reponses would be faster I guess ...). Now concerning your issue, for creation Operation parameters or Operation return values you have to use the Operation contextual menu. In order to show the Operation contextual menu, select your Operation in the explorer, then right click on it as show in my attachment and use "create element" > Parameter or Return Parameter. Hoping it helps, BR
Q: Collection, which method is used to authorize an add of an element? We find a lot of concrete subclasses under Collection. While trying to add an element in a concrete collection, this collection will use a method to determine if it can accept to store the element (and eventually that this element is not already in the collection). It could use equals(), hashCode() or compareTo() of the element. Is it possible to find a summary about which method is used by each implementation of Collection ? Thanks a lot for your answers. A: First of all not all collections check whether the element you're adding already exists in the collection. For example ArrayList just appends the element to the tail of the list, without checking if it's already in the list. Other classes use equals if the collection is guaranteed to have only one copy of the object, or compareTo, if the elements are supposed to be Comparable and the collection is sorted (to find the right place to insert it at). Maps will also use equals to check for the key, but some like HashMap will also use hashCode() to speed up the searching process (they first get all keys with the same hashcode, and then use equals on each of them to find if the key already exists and has a value assigned, which will then get replaced). But if you want to see how they work you can check out the sources that are included with the jdk. In eclipse I have the JRE set to the folder where the jdk is installed, and I can use CTRL+SHIFT+T to open any class (type) in the jdk, CTRL+click the name of a class, or for methods, even CTRL+click -> open implementation, which opens a pop up with the classes the implement that method (if it's from an interface, or the method directly in the class, if it's not)
