Chimeric ecotropic MLV envelope proteins that carry EGF receptor-specific ligands and the Pseudomonas exotoxin A translocation domain to target gene transfer to human cancer cells.
Redirecting retroviral vector transduction simply by insertion of a ligand into the envelope (Env) protein has met with several obstacles. For example, virions targeted to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), after receptor binding, rapidly traffic to the lysosomes, where they are degraded. Exotoxin A of Pseudomonas aeruginosa has the ability to translocate from endosomes to the cytoplasm by means of a translocation domain (TLD). We generated a series of chimeric Env proteins of Moloney murine leukemia virus containing EGFR ligands, where TLD was inserted into different regions. These chimeric proteins were successfully produced, if the translocation domain was not located at the immediate N-terminus of Env. The ability to transduce murine cells via the ecotropic receptor varied but correlated with the amount of Env proteins incorporated into the virions. Chimeric vector particles could bind to EGFR, demonstrating the functional exposure of the peptide ligand. However, transduction of human cells expressing EGFR but not the ecotropic receptor by virions carrying the chimeric protein was not observed. |
Anti-Abortion Activists Step Up Plans to Harass Women Using Red River Women’s Clinic
The Fargo Catholic Diocese has decided to increase their assault on women trying to exercise their legal rights to an abortion by opening a new chapel directly across the street from the Red River Women’s Clinic, North Dakota’s only abortion clinic. The chapel plans to hold a mass every Wednesday to coincide with the one day the clinic is open.
The Church wants to demonstrate God’s love for women by controlling their lives —
The Church wants to demonstrate God’s love for women by convincing them to turn off their brains and let the Church do all their thinking —
The Church wants to make sure that women understand at every moment that the Church is eager for them to be martyred and disgusted with them for resisting —
The Church wants to demonstrate God’s plan for women by restricting them to two life choices, choistered sexless virgin or a mindless household drudge used for breeding —
The Church wants to demonstrate God’s love for women by convincing them to voluntarily erase themselves and become self-abnegating servants who believe they deserve nothing, not even life, as a deserved lifetime punishment for the sin of being born inferior females.

These people are pathetic. They really believe in what they’re doing, but why waste this much energy on trying to shame women out of making the choices they need to make? Surely there’s a better way to spread Christ’s love and message other than shaming women. They’re just so hypocritical and ignorant that it’s sickenening. |
Current mitigation technologies of low frequency spectrum attenuation include acoustic hangers, Helmholtz resonators, chamber core resonators, coverage tube resonators, large volume resonators, and large mass systems. These devices are problematic in that the manufacturing methods used consider the acoustic resonator design to be the same as a structural design and/or their performance is not broad band, i.e., the devices operate in a narrow frequency range, thereby limiting the effective range of environments in which the devices can be used. Furthermore, these devices can be expensive to manufacture in that they are sequentially constructed in an add-on manner. |
Q:
MSSQL Single Listener for Multiple AGs
I was looking for a solution in which my application, one which I can configure only one Listener param, if we can address multiple Availability Groups or not.
I have heard of using multiple listeners for one or multiple AGs, but is it possible to use a single listener and address multiple AGs?
A:
but is it possible to use a single listener and address multiple AGs.
A listener is specific to Instance of AG so you cannot connect to multiple AG's using one listener. If you have multiple instances you have to use multiple AG's.
How do you think a single listener will manager multiple AG's now how will it know which AG to connect ?

Q:
How to restrict retry attempts?
Is there a way through the Stormpath API or their UI to set a maximum number of password retry attempts? Or does this retry count need to be managed on my web server during any authentication with the Stormpath API?
A:
The Stormpath API does not yet provide this as a feature, so this is something that would have to be managed by your web application. However the Stormpath API can help you, because you can store the state in the account's custom data object, so that you can keep track of how many attempts have been made on that particular account.
I hope this answer helps!

*Starts sketching the idea* 'arm' against his neck? Hand? Kinda like strangling? We talking forarm or upper arm? We want hands pinned against the fridge or pinned down to my wishing? *sketches madly, placing pants around his thighs, cuz Kio thinks it's so much sexier than at his ankles* -obsessed-
I mean like, how to explain, the underside of kais arm, not his hand, like his actual arm, the space between his hand and elbow...fails to explain....ill draw you a diagram..if you still dont get it lol...you can do what you wish, Im just the Photoshoper!
Yeah! that's what i meant, no not quit choking...as hot as that wud be....ANGST *_*
Here have some angsty inspiration;;
(In the kitchen)
...
"What the heck is wrong with you Kai, why are you always like this, you always say 'whatever' and 'hmff' whats your problem dude" Tyson grumbled, both his eyebrows indenting inwards.
Kai darted forward, smashing his forearm into tyson's neck, he voilently glared into tyson's chestnut eye's as he gave a sideways smile "so now your gunna kill me? Real smart!..." tyson beemed, as if somehow he knew toying with him would get some reaction.
Kai kept his arm roughly weighing against tysons neck as he groped his hips, his manly hands sliding up his snail trail and along his biceps, each little touch and tickle tormented tyson, but he tried so hard not to let kai know how much satisfaction he was actually feeling "What's this Kai, trying to make he hot, your not doing a very good job"
Kai paused for a moment
"SHUT THE FUCK UP" He shouted, removing his arm and smashing his fists into the wall, he quickly held tyson's body, stripping his shirt away he bit tysons VERY errect nipples..Tyson bit his lip, quickly closing his eyes, before re operning them..."You want a fucking good job, I'm gunna make you beg for me to stop when I'm breaking you, and making you scream! He finished. A look in his eyes of almost evil...It wasn't evil, it was a passion, to make love to his rival in the most cruel Delicious way!
I could go on.... but i'll let your imagine take you there!hehe...man im aroused again =_=;;;
*talking to self* I see Yuki wants this done. She just gave me fic scene. I better make this good. Very angsty angry Kai... Manga style goes best when's he's angry... he's so much angrier in the manga. Takao, how am I gonna make this look right... I've been challenged. Gotta get it right! Hand on hip? Should a do the biting? No, just the exchange of expressions...oya! *sketches madly again*
Oh shit, i did it again...-talks to self- lol...I'm very excited to see this *_* I can't wait to get my mittens on ur artwork, must colour your angst!

Cherry Blossom Season in Retrospect
At the end of March and beginning of April, the cherry blossoms began to bloom, ushering in warmer weather and a festive attitude amongst the Japanese people. I was too preoccupied with school work to make any posts to the Temple Abroad blog–I needed to start several final projects simultaneously. However, I still want to share my experience of cherry blossom season in Japan.
During cherry blossom season, delicate pink and white flowers bloom from the numerous cherry trees in Japan. The season ends when the flowers fall from the trees, to be replaced with budding green leaves. Tourists and native Japanese alike flock to parks and gardens to take pictures of the short-lived blooms, called sakura. Many people also set up picnics or parties to watch the cherry blossoms, called hanami.
I was lucky enough to go on several hanami outings. Some were sponsored by Temple University, while others were personal trips I took with friends. However, cherry blossom trees are so common in Japan, every trip outside felt like a mini hanami session. Hanami trees lined major streets and were planted in every park. There was one directly outside the TUJ dorms and three directly behind main campus in Azabu.
The cherry blossom trees in Hama Rikyu Gardens
The first flower viewing I went to was a field trip for one of my art classes. We went to Hama Rikyu Gardens, a series of gardens belonging to the Japanese government which initially served as the grounds for a wealthy feudal lord. The garden was crowded with other hopeful flower viewers. One fully blooming cherry tree was quickly surrounded by twenty or so people, all trying to take a picture of its sakura. My friend and I joined in the chaos and took some nice photos, although it was difficult to work around the many other people crowding around.
Picture of myself with cherry blossoms and several other people in the background
Though I thoroughly enjoyed Hama Rikyu Gardens, my personal favorite hanami experience happened at night, near the end of the season. I was meeting up with a friend who went to a nearby school. We ate dinner together at a bar and then casually strolled through Ueno Park after evening fell. The cherry blossoms were difficult to see and impossible to take pictures of in the dark, but I could still see their flowering branches stretching overhead, covering our path in a flowery canopy. Strings of lanterns illuminated small patches of white blossoms and the numerous picnics taking place underneath. Business men and groups of friends laughed and cracked open bottles of alcohol. Polite signs asked picnic-goers to throw away their trash, and the atmosphere was fun and lighthearted. My friend and I walked past the rows of picnics and food stands, passing by a large lake. Through the cherry blossom branches we could make out the bright city lights from across the water. I thought the view might have looked better during the daytime but in the nighttime, a serene atmosphere settled over our surroundings.
The sakura season ended after two weeks. I remember going to school during finals week and feeling a twinge of disappointment upon seeing the pink petals replaced by tiny green leaves. The cherry blossoms lasted such a short time, but I still have some excellent memories and photos from the experience.

Creating COM object from C++?
I want to create a dll from a C++ code and the use it in C#. Is there a solution of creating COM object from C++ ?
I don't want to use System.Runtime.InteropServices.
Many thanks
A:
Of course that you can write COM+ objects with C++. Here's a tutorial.
A:
You can write COM directly (see @Darin Dimitrov's answer), but you can also use ATL. My favorite solution to expose C++ code to C# (without COM though) is to use C++/CLI.

Why People Think Ponds Are A Good Idea
Important Tips for Hiring a Pond Cleaning Service
Pond maintenance is important in order to keep your fish happy, hence, the need to hire professional services to clean and take care of your pond. The following are factors that you should consider when choosing a pond cleaning service.
Start by doing some research to help you identify pond cleaning services that are capable of meeting your needs. You can start by talking to people or businesses that have ponds as they are more likely to know the best pond cleaning companies. This way, you will know which companies are capable of meeting of meeting your goals and those that are not. Similarly, you can use the internet to locate pond maintenance companies that are located near you.
Before you choose a service, it is important to inquire what kind of services is included in their packages. Ensure that your pond cleaning company provides you with a variety of services from which you can choose from. Additional services to look for include Servicing of filters and pumps, pond construction, pond repairs and maintenance services.
Determine if the technicians of the pond cleaning company that you are considering are highly trained and qualified for the job. When the technicians are experienced and qualified, you will be assured that your pond is in the right hands. The technicians will be coming to your property, therefore; it’s important to ensure that they are properly screened before they are allowed to work in your pond.
Similarly, you want to choose a company that has been offering its pond maintenance services in the market for a number of years. Consider hiring a pond cleaning service that has the latest equipment to perform an exceptional work. Also, they know what to look for when there is an issue with your water feature in order to ensure that your pond is not just looking good but also works properly.
A reputable pond cleaning company will also not hesitate to provide you with a list of references. Be sure to ask the references if the company has qualified personnel and whether the company in question met their needs. As a result, you will be able to choose a company you think is capable of providing you with the highest quality service.
The next step is to get quotes from several pond cleaning companies so that you can compare their charges and packages. Also, decide on the method of payment that will work for you as they may vary with different companies. Remember it’s not a wise decision to go with the cheapest company as they are unlikely to provide you with quality services. Set up a meeting with the potential pond cleaning services to help you narrow down your list further by examining their communication skills. |

Some great news to start the week: California Governor Schwarzenegger has, er, terminated the practice of tail docking dairy cows. Last night he signed a bill outlawing the practice.
Being a dairy cow still sucks, but at least millions of California cows will now be spared the cruelty of having their tails severed. And the bill’s passage will undoubtedly put pressure on other top dairy states to follow suit. The bill takes effect in January. (Via Fearing.)

The dilemmas of experiential teaching: toward an interpretive approach.
Continuing education in nursing uses the experience of the learner as a basis for the examination of practice issues. The unique and personal nature of this experimental learning is, however, particularly problematic where assessment of the learner or the course is required. This article offers part of the findings from an evaluative, ethnomethodological study into the reflections of learners attending an experiential course in communication in palliative care. In the part of the study described here, the critical perceptions of three learners following one experiential exercise are compared with the stated aims of the facilitators and their subsequent actions. The analysis uses the conceptual framework of Schön's reflection-in-action. It is suggested that an interpretive approach toward teaching in the experiential domain may lead to a more relevant assessment of learning. |
Continuation of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy in a Patient with a Coronary Artery Stent with Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever: A Clinical Conundrum.
Severe thrombocytopenia with impairment of the activity of platelets and impairment of blood clotting occurs in dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF). Continuation of dual antiplatelet therapy in such patients can result in life-threatening hemorrhages. On the other hand, withholding of antiplatelets in a patient undergone coronary stenting lately can lead to stent thrombosis, resulting in myocardial infarctions and sudden cardiac death. There are no guidelines on management of DHF in patients with coronary stents. Here, we discuss about several divergent factors that need to be considered and balanced when managing such patients. We describe a case as an example to illustrate how we balanced the risk of serious bleeding versus the risk of stent thrombosis successfully according to evolution of the disease process, by temporary withholding of antiplatelets in such a patient. |
In vitro response of rat pleural mesothelial cells to talc samples in genotoxicity assays (sister chromatid exchanges and DNA repair).
The genotoxicity of three samples of talc has been determined using in vitro cell systems previously developed for testing asbestos fibres. The talc samples used consisted of particles of respirable size in order to test the effect of particles likely to be deposited in the lung. Genotoxicity was tested in cultures of rat pleural mesothelial cells (RPMC) using genotoxicity assays for unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) and sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs). The effects were compared with those obtained with negative controls (attapulgite and anatase) and positive controls (chrysotile and crocidolite asbestos). In contrast to asbestos, none of the talc samples, nor the negative controls, induced enhancement of UDS or SCEs in treated cultures in comparison with the untreated cultures. |
Somatostatin-like peptide and regeneration capacities in planarians.
The presence of a neuropeptide immunologically related to somatostatin (SRIF) has been investigated in the neurosecretory cells of two regenerating planarian species (Dugesia lugubris and Dendrocoelum lacteum). A correlation has been shown between the discharge of the SRIF-like-immunoreactive cells during the first hours after amputation and the capacity to regenerate, and between the persistence of numerous positive cells and the lack of regeneration. These results suggest that somatostatin might play a regulatory (inhibitory) role on the cellular proliferation which leads to the blastema edification. |
Portable digital computers rely on rechargeable DC batteries to provide the electrical power necessary for operation. When the computer is powered on for processing operation, but allowed to remain idle, the battery continues nonetheless to supply current to all the components of the computer, including the central processing unit (CPU), memory, the chipset (e.g. the Southbridge) and the display of the computer. If the user fails to turn off the computer, the battery continues to supply full current and, eventually, becomes drained of the stored electrical power. The foregoing action leads to more frequent charging of the battery, and reduces the utility and usability of the computer system.
To reduce battery drain under such circumstances, a power management technique was previously introduced for portable computers, called the “sleep” mode. Typically, portable computers based on the INTEL X86 CPU and associated chip set, referred to as “PC's”, include multiple sleep modes (e.g. states of sleep mode). The multiple sleep modes enable the portable computer, when left idle, to selectively power down the components and devices of the computer in stages, although the main power remains on. With the computer spending an increasing amount of time idling, the computer progresses through increasingly deeper and deeper stages of sleep mode (and hence, greater reductions in power consumption). One of the deepest of those modes is characterized by all of the devices, including the CPU, but excepting the main memory (RAM) and the Southbridge chip, being powered down. This latter mode is typically referred to as “Suspend to RAM” (“STR”) or as “Power-on-Suspend” (“POS”) or like terms. In the STR condition power consumption is dramatically reduced and offers the greatest power reduction short of that power reduction obtained by turning off every component of the computer, the latter being referred to as “suspend to disk”, essentially completely shutting down the computer.
The sleep modes in the PC are defined and controlled by the operating system software, such as familiar Windows 9X, Unix, Linux and the like, in conjunction with the system BIOS of the computer. When in STR, the Southbridge portion of the chip set, which is responsible for power management of the PC, continues to monitor the keyboard and mouse (and/or resume key) of the PC for any user activity, signifying an end to the computer idle condition.
When the user later returns to perform computing and observes the computer is in a sleep mode, the user operates a “resume” key (or any key of the keyboard) or the like. That action initiates a chain of events in the computer transparent to the user, that restores full power to the CPU; and the computer recovers quickly. Return from the upper stages of the sleep mode recovers more quickly than recovery from the STR stage, the deepest stage after the Suspend to Disk stage, the latter recovery procedure being referred to as a “resume from STR”.
Of particular convenience, the user may immediately resume computing at the precise location in any application program that was active in the computer at the time the computer entered the sleep mode. To reach that point from the STR stage of sleep mode, the CPU processes a number of steps of the “boot-up” routine for the computer; steps that typically occur in a manner transparent to the user. The computer is able to resume where it left off, because, prior to entering STR, the computer preserved the complete state of all software applications and of all components and devices, including the CPU, in a memory that remained powered up during the “sleep”.
For the power management technique of sleep mode, the CPU and the external memory (DRAM) are independently supplied with power, that is, are located in separate power domains. In the deepest sleep mode, STR, power is removed from the CPU (and other electronic components of the computer, such as the display), while maintaining the DRAM memory and the Southbridge chip under power. The application programs and the state of those application programs (e.g. the CPU “context”) is preserved by transferring the state information to the DRAM.
In processing operation, the CPU executes application programs by continuously modifying both its internal state and memory contents according to the instructions of the program. The internal CPU memory of the X86 system resides in the same power domain as the CPU. Thus, whenever the CPU is powered down, such as for an STR procedure, the internal memory is also powered down, and normally results in the loss of that CPU context. In order for the CPU of the X86 system to resume processing of an application program on Resume from STR, the processor must at that time at least “know” the state of the program on entering STR. Before entering STR, the CPU executes an instruction (of the power management software) that saves the CPU context at a well defined location in external memory, such as the DRAM memory. That context information subsumes the state of the operating system and the state of the application program. By maintaining power to the DRAM during STR, the state information of the program is preserved, and is available for use later upon a Resume from STR.
Once the resume button is pressed and is detected by the Southbridge chip, power is reapplied to the CPU, which commences its start-up routines. The CPU processes the normal boot-up routine stored in the ROM of the BIOS chip. That boot up procedure initializes the internal registers of the CPU and flushes its caches, thereby establishing a baseline state for the CPU. The process takes a noticeable time in which to complete. However, prior to loading the operating system, such as Windows 9x, the routine checks to determine if the boot-up procedure is a “power up reset” as occurs upon initially powering up the computer, or instead is a Resume from STR. When the routine detects the latter condition, the computer “knows” that the state of the operating system software, any application program, and the corresponding CPU context already resides in the external memory (DRAM). The CPU then completes the boot-up procedure by restoring the device states, and, with a special instruction, finally restores the CPU context from the external memory. Thereafter, the CPU is able to simply proceed with executing the next application program instruction exactly where the CPU left off when entering STR.
In a stage of sleep mode that lies one stage above the STR stage, the penultimate stage (e.g. the pre-STR stage) referred to as “deep sleep”, existing operating systems issue an instruction to remove the system clock from the CPU, but to maintain the CPU powered up, continuing to consume battery power. The removal of the system clock reduces power consumption also, but that is not as great a reduction as when power is removed from the CPU, such as during STR. Without clock signals being applied, the CPU is no longer able to process (as would consume additional current), but maintains system context in the associated internal registers of the CPU. That context is not lost and is not required to be saved to external memory as is the case in entering the STR stage. As an advantage, the invention powers down the CPU in all sleep modes and preserves the CPU context, saving additional power.
Accordingly, an object of the invention is to reduce the power consumption of a computer during periods in which the computer is idle, providing a more effective sleep mode.
Another object of the invention is to promote the pre-STR stage of sleep mode in existing power management systems to the STR stage, creating an “Instant STR”, and reduce the time required by the computer system to return from that stage, ideally providing a Resume from STR that appears instantaneous.
And, a related object of the invention is to replace on-the-fly a CPU context maintaining sleep mode of existing computer systems that is governed by the operating system with a substitute sleep mode that affords a lower power consumption and remains transparent to the software. |
Well this message is just saying that it cant assure you that stack trace is reliable.
Apparently the problem is within Chipmunk library and It seems like you are testing your game in release mode.
Since you are having BAD_ACCESS error it is likely to be a deallocation problem, try use instruments to see why it happens. Also, look through chipmunk topics on both this and spritebuilder forums and see how common problems are being solved with adding some flags like -fno-fast-math or something.
But my guess is that it is either bug inside Chipmunk or you messed up somewhere with deallocation. |
Q:
What is the C# equivalent of R's SEXP type?
I would like to call a method in a dll that returns a variable of type 'SEXP' from C#. What is the equivalent of type 'SEXP' in C# or how can I declare a SEXP variable in C#.
Thanks in advance.
A:
I strongly suggest you use the package https://www.nuget.org/packages/R.NET.Community in your C# project, and you may want to clone or fork R.NET from https://github.com/jmp75/rdotnet to get code examples.
R.NET has all the interop glue code for R's SEXP already available, in C#
For instance in R.NET/REngine.cs
public SymbolicExpression GetSymbol(string name, REnvironment environment)
The glue code closer to the interop with C is under R.NET/Internals. R.NET uses delegates (Internals/Delegates.cs) to perform PInvoke. Not a compulsory approach, but less cruft code than traditional PInvoke.
REngine inherits from a class to facilitate PInvoke
public class UnmanagedDll
You will find an example how to wrap and call native libraries at https://github.com/jmp75/dynamic-interop-dll

Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is an inflammatory condition of the esophagus, thought to be caused by food allergy, and characterized by the presence of eosinophils within the esophageal mucosa. Even though it is a relatively new disease, EoE is now recognized to be common in both adult and pediatric populations and rapidly rising in incidence. Patients with EoE can experience a variety of upper GI symptoms, ranging from dysphagia to food impaction. Experts fear that if left untreated, EoE may lead to esophageal fibrosis and stricture formation. It is therefore currently recommended that this disease be treated until the symptoms and the eosinophilic infiltrate have resolved. EoE therapy options include corticosteroids and aggressive dietary restriction followed by gradual food reintroduction. While both treatments are effective, EoE returns following cessation of corticosteroids and numerous attempts at food reintroduction are needed to arrive at a diet that provides a good quality of life. As a result, management of EoE patients involves frequent follow up to monitor the patient's clinical and histopathologic response to changes in steroid dosing and/or diet. This strategy is arduous for patients and their families, and costly, as multiple endoscopy sessions must be conducted over time to procure esophageal biopsies and monitor eosinophil counts. We have developed a new technology called spectrally-encoded confocal microscopy (SECM), that is capable of being incorporated into a small-diameter probe and can rapidly obtain depth-resolved microscopic image data over large epithelial areas in vivo. Originally developed to evaluate dysplasia and cancer of the esophagus, we have recently discovered that this imaging modality can also see esophageal eosinophils with a high degree of contrast. Much of the inconvenience and nearly half of the cost of endoscopy is a consequence of patient sedation that is required to perform the endoscopic procedure. In this proposal we will advance the SECM technology so that it can be used to monitor esophageal eosinophils without requiring sedation, endoscopy, or excisional biopsy. We will accomplish this task by developing small, flexible transnasal SECM probe that can be routinely inserted into the esophagus in the outpatient setting. In conjunction with a new high-speed SECM system, this device will automatically image a large portion of the esophagus and count eosinophils. Once the device has been constructed, validation studies will be conducted to demonstrate that the accuracy of this device is comparable to that of endoscopic biopsy. The end product of this research will be an esophageal eosinophil monitoring tool that is less expensive and far better tolerated than the current standard of care. Beyond its immediate clinical impact, this technology can also be used in future investigational studies to expand our knowledge of EoE and other diseases such as asthma that are characterized by tissue eosinophilia. |

Embodiments relate to computer user interfaces, and in particular, to user interfaces providing decision support in complex problem environments. Specifically, an individual working to solve a business problem may often seek to perform tasks such as investigating extended cause-and-effect relationships, gathering context-related information, and/or comparing and validating possible solution paths.
For example in an in-house production scenario, a material planner (MRP Controller Role) may face complex problems affecting different finished end products, intermediates, and/or starting materials. To address shortages, the ERP planner may seek to explore different possible opportunities available both within and outside of a particular business entity. Examples of such options can include but are not limited to, rescheduling of production orders, creating new supplies, and collaborating with a purchaser.
Conventionally, the material planner may be forced to manually validate and compare the various problem solution options in terms of feasibility and possible consequences (e.g. follow-up problems on the component level or capacity issues). This process of evaluating options can be roughly compared with a chess game, where the player considers a next move and tries to calculate (simulate) its consequences mentally.
In attempting to manually perform this evaluation, the material planner may lack an overview of the context of the problem, and also the cause-and-effect relationships of the possible options. Typically, the material planner may be forced to gather the related information by hand, navigating step-by-step through several levels of details involving the creation of off-line notes and extra communication that may not be recorded or reproducible.
A lack of transparency/reproducibility during such critical decision making processes, may leads to inefficiency/time loss, mental stress, and degradation of overall productivity. Also, the lack of an established procedure may lead to potentially suboptimal or even incorrect decisions being made. |
Monitoring the condition of the fetus during delivery.
Uterine contractions during delivery increase the resistance to flow in the blood vessels of the placenta and decreases placental blood circulation, possibly subjecting the fetus to hypoxia. Several methods have been developed for monitoring the condition of the fetus during delivery. Cardiotocography is used to monitor the fetus's heart rate and variability in relation to the mother's contractions. A change in cardiotocography recording due to stimulation of the presenting part is an indication of a healthy fetus. ST analysis of fetal ECG depicts the oxygenation of fetal cardiac muscle during delivery. In addition to cardiotocography and ST analysis, analysis of blood gases and lactate determination are used in assessing the condition of the fetus. |

Q:
How do I add another printer to Brother ControlCenter4?
I just installed a second printer on my computer. The first printer was a Brother DCP-7065DN, while the second is a Brother MFC-L2740DW. On opening ControlCenter4, I am not able to see the second model from ControlCenter4. I have installed the drivers available for this printer and I am able to print.
How can I add the second model to ControlCenter4?
A:
If you only installed the printer drivers, you will not be able to use ControlCenter4 with the printer. In order to see the model added to ControlCenter4, visit the Brother site and install the Full Driver & Software Package for your printer model. Doing this will allow you to use ControlCenter4 with the new printer.

Goalies are voodoo. It’s always fun to make that statement when we’re talking about the randomness associated with the position, but the truth is, we’re not very good at predicting future performance of the men between the pipes. This becomes a problem when you have to make an important roster decision at the league’s most important (and volatile) position.
The Toronto Maple Leafs find themselves in this situation right now, with the backup goalie spot available and three waiver-eligible candidates: Curtis McElhinney, Garret Sparks and Calvin Pickard. All three have interesting resumes, contrasting styles, and extremely polarized fans, which has led to quite the contentious debate online.
In my attempt to analyze this objectively, I’m going to make a case both for and against each goaltender winning the backup role. Before we get started, I wanted to quickly explain the best metric we have to measure goaltending performance.

Organ transplantation's considerable benefit is significantly offset by the complications associated with its required chronic immunosuppressive therapy. Patients are usually on several medications, but calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) have long formed the centerpiece of most regimens. CNIs effectively prevent rejection, but their use is associated with non-antigen-specific T cell suppression, consequent impaired protective immunity, and numerous non-immune side effects. This year, a CNI alternative has been approved: belatacept, a fusion protein that mediates CD28-B7 costimulation blockade (CoB). Substantial clinical evidence suggests that belatacept can serve as a CNI replacement, avoiding CNI-specific off-target side effects. However, belatacept appears less able to prevent rejection in certain scenarios, and to inhomogenously impair viral immunity, particularly towards the common Epstein - Barr virus. Thus, clinicians now have two distinct approaches to prevent transplant rejection, CNI- and CoB-based immunosuppression, but little data guiding a rational choice between them. This application approaches this highly contemporary dilemma in transplantation, the CNI/belatacept choice and its relationship to the reciprocal complications of rejection and viral infection. We hypothesize that rejection and viral infection are mechanisticall related through a process known as heterologous alloimmunity-alloimmunity matured by prior viral infection-and that the changes in T cell phenotype known to emerge throughout life and influence allo- and viral-immunity can be used to anticipate one's response to CNIs and CoB. We believe these phenotypic changes can be used to develop a biologically plausible, therapeutically relevant, and diagnostically definable means of segregating those patients who will benefit from a belatacept-based regimen from those better served by a CNI-based approach. We explore this hypothesis in three Specific Aims, one observational study in humans to define the extent to which viral infection and rejection relate to kidney transplant recipients' T cell differentiation and exhaustion in the context of CNI- or belatacept-based therapy, and two experimental projects performed using well-defined, clinically relevant, mouse models of transplantation and viral infection to establish the mechanisms determining CNI- and CoB-specific effects on allo- and viral-specific-immunity. The investigative team formed for this study is facile in using observations in transplant patients to inform the conduct of rigorously controlled animal studies, and in the use of novel animal experiments to modify human studies. It is centered in a high volume transplant center that has developed an outstanding infrastructure for the acquisition of well-characterized human samples, and exceptional exposure to patients undergoing CNI- and belatacept-based regimens. Thus, each aim will be conducted cognizant of both the relevant clinical circumstances and mechanistic principles. This study will facilitate development of a unifying paradigm to guide the rational selection of immunosuppressive agents, and facilitate individualized, data-driven, immunological management for transplant patients. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The proposed research is relevant to public health because it aims to conduct mechanistically driven studies to optimize the implementation of immunosuppression in general, and belatacept (costimulation blockade) in particular, as an alternative strategy to prevent rejection following organ transplantation. Proper selection of immunosuppression offers the potential to minimize patient morbidity and mortality, optimize allograft survival, minimize the risk of re-transplantation, and reduce the healthcare costs associated with end stage organ failure. |
Interrelated and integrated studies of subjects with periodontal diseases are being carried out. The goals of the ongoing studies are to improve knowledge of factors contributing to the etiology and pathogenesis of periodontal diseases, as well as to use this knowledge to monitor the progression of diseases and to improve diagnostic and prognostic capabilities. Subjects are initially screened and clinically characterized by investigators in the Core section of the Center, and appropriate clinical samples and other pertinent information are collected. Clinical, biostatistical, and data management support are provided to the other study groups involved in the Center. During the past year, two categories of subjects have been studied. Subjects with periodontitis are being observed longitudinally to determine clinical, immunological, and bacteriological parameters associated with progressing periodontal sites. Data from these studies will provide information regarding the nature of progression of periodontitis and provide a basis for rationale therapy and prognosis. The second category of subjects are those with early onset forms of periodontitis and their families. Our data indicate that the expression of early onset periodontitis (juvenile periodontitis JP and severe periodontitis SP) is genetically determined. Therefore, we are continuing to enter families identified via probands with these diseases into our studies in order to test genetic hypotheses of the mode of transmission in these diseases and to study clinical and immunological features of these diseases. Finally, in vitro studies aimed at determining some of the immunological pathogenic mechanisms that contribute to periodontal diseases have been accomplished. |

Erucism in New Zealand: exposure to gum leaf skeletoniser (Uraba lugens) caterpillars in the differential diagnosis of contact dermatitis in the Auckland region.
There are no indigenous caterpillars known to be associated with erucism, but the recently established gum leaf skeletoniser (Uraba lugens) has venom-containing spines that cause adverse reactions in humans. Symptoms are usually characterised by a stinging sensation, followed by itching and the formation of wheals. Exposure to U. lugens should be considered by medical practitioners in the differential diagnosis of contact dermatitis in the Auckland region. |

Q:
Meteor client subscribe to a third-party API
There are a few examples of using Meteor with, say, Twitter API. Typical approach is to insert new tweets into Meteor Collection in the server, then let clients subscribe to this collection.
However, writing to database is costly, time consuming and unnecessary if I just want to display the new tweets on client there's no need to store these tweets in my database.
Is it possible for Meteor client to listen to Twitter directly, or at least avoiding writing new tweets to Meteor server database?
A:
Just talk to the Twitter REST API directly with Meteor.http.get or some other approach like jQuery's $.getJSON. You don't really need to build anything specifically with Meteor to talk with the Twitter API, but your app will obviously benefit from Meteor features like live templating if you do. Otherwise you'll have to patch things together yourself.

Application of tracers in studying free fatty acid metabolism of various organs in vivo.
A few selected examples are given of the application of radio-labeled fatty acids in studying substrate utilization under in vivo conditions. The flux of free fatty acids (FFA) may be calculated by the constant infusion technique of Armstrong et al. using either labeled palmitic or oleic acid. Utilization of FFA by the myocardium is conveniently studied by the constant infusion of 14C-labeled palmitate or oleate. The extraction ratio of these two fatty acids is very similar both in the case of myocardium and of several other tissues investigated. Using this technique not only the removal and oxidation of FFA may be calculated but also competition between the major substrates (FFA, lactate, ketone bodies) can be studied. Arterial FFA concentration, rate of coronary blood flow, and myocardial work are mentioned as some of the important factors influencing the rate of myocardial FFA utilization. The study of skeletal muscle metabolism employing labeled fatty acids is of great importance since release as well as uptake of FFA takes place across most muscle beds and thus net arteriovenous differences may be misleading. A somewhat similar situation also exists in the splanchnic region. Labeled fatty acids have also been utilized to investigate both the oxidation of FFA and their incorporation into brain lipids. Both the uptake and release of FFA may be followed in the adipose tissue by the use of labeled palmitate or oleate. |

The Slovaks seem to be slaughthering the French over in Helsinki and the Czechs have an early lead against Belarus in Stockholm. Later tonight Finland plays Germany while Sweden takes on Switzerland. Canada's first game will be against Denmark tomorrow.
Went down to Stockholm last night and saw Sweden beat Belarus at the Stockholm Globe Arena.
Not great hockey, to tell the truth, but at least the good guys won.
Belarus played really well. They were of course the lesser skilled team, but played a very disciplined game, making it really hard for Sweden to accomplish anything. Then former Penguin Koltsov scored for them, making it even more of an uphill battle for Sweden.
Sweden seemed to lack a game plan. In general, they had better players than Belarus, but there was general confusion no tape to tape passes, no one was crashing the crease and every one subscribed to the pass rather than shoot mentality. Utterly frustrating to watch, as it was clear Sweden was the better team, but they had no freaking idea of how to use that to their advantage. The panalty kill was good though. It almost seemed like Sweden was creating more scoring chances when short handed than when even strength. Maybe because that was the only time Belarus stopped playing defense first?
Oh well, we got the three points for a regulation win, and in the end that's all that matters.
And in the Swiss department - they now also beat the Czechs!
So, the Swiss has faced Sweden, Canada and the Czech Republic, and beaten all three.

Simulating mouse clicks from service
I am looking forums for two days now and can't find the answer. I am new to android and i have a problem. I need to have a small server service in backround (which i have) that gets coordinates for example. With that coordinates i must simulate (make) a click on the active activity...
It should be service for controling the android from the computer. The computer client aplication sends some information like pressed key or mouse click and the service gets it and performs action on active activity.
Is there any way to do that , some example or something ? Thank you

An orbital floor brush machine is a device that includes a motor and an orbital brush. Tile brush is powered by the motor and rotated on a floor or other underlying surface. The orbital floor brush machine can consequently be used to clean the underlying surface. In addition, the orbital floor brush machine can be used for polishing. Further, the orbital floor brush machine can be used with a variety of cleaning and/or polishing compounds.
The orbital brush typically is circular or ring shaped. A ring-shaped orbital blush typically includes bristles only in a ring or rings around an outer edge of the orbital brush. Inner bristles may not be included on such a device because the speed of rotation of the inner bristles, especially those near the center of the brush, is very low compared to the rotational speed of the bristles near the outer edge of the orbital brush. As a result, the outer bristles do most of the work performed by the orbital floor brush machine. In addition, inner bristles are not used because they would increase the required rotational energy. As a result, inner bristles would make an orbital brush rotate more slowly. In addition, a reduced area force would be provided at each of the bristles.
The cleaning power and efficiency of the orbital floor brush machine is related to the number of bristles and/or bristle tufts. Bristle tufts comprise bundles of bristle fibers. The bundles of bristle fibers offer greater stiffness than the bristle fibers alone possess.
In an orbital floor brush machine, the size and/or stiffness of the individual bristles can be increased in order to improve the effectiveness of the orbital brush. In addition, the number of bristles in a bristle tuft or the compactness of a bristle tuft can be increased. However, this can in turn cause other problems. Increased bristle/tuft stiffness can increase rotational resistance of the orbital brush. This in turn can lead to a hopping of the orbital brush, greatly reducing overall effectiveness of the orbital floor brush machine. In addition, such hopping generates additional strain on the machine and can lead to mechanical failures and customer dissatisfaction. |

Age-related changes in the anatomy of the normal human heart.
Recent information has expanded our knowledge regarding age-related changes in the normal heart. With advancing age there are significant increases in heart weight, ventricular septal and probably left ventricular free wall thickness, and in valve circumferences. In the myocardium, there are increases in fat, collagen, elastin, and lipofuscin. The geometry of the heart changes as well, due to decreasing base-to-apex dimension, rightward shift and dilatation of the aortic root, and left atrial dilatation. The aortic and mitral valves thicken and become fibrotic along their appositional surfaces, and their annuli are the sites of collagen degeneration, lipid accumulation, and calcification. The coronary arteries become tortuous, dilated, and focally calcified. There are atrophy and loss of specialized conduction tissue in the atria and ventricles. These changes, while usually modest, might diminish the ability of the aged heart to adapt to the stresses imposed by a number of cardiovascular diseases. |
Prosthetic cardiac valves have been used for many years to treat cardiac valvular disorders. The native heart valves (such as the aortic, pulmonary and mitral valves) serve critical functions in assuring the forward flow of an adequate supply of blood through the cardiovascular system. These heart valves can be rendered less effective by congenital, inflammatory, or infectious conditions. Such damage to the valves can result in serious cardiovascular compromise or death. For many years the definitive treatment for such disorders was the surgical repair or replacement of the valve during open-heart surgery, but such surgeries are prone to many complications. More recently, a transvascular technique has been developed for introducing and implanting a prosthetic heart valve using a flexible catheter in a manner that is less invasive than open heart surgery.
In this technique, a prosthetic valve is mounted in a crimped state on the end portion of a flexible catheter and advanced through a blood vessel of the patient until the prosthetic valve reaches the implantation site. The prosthetic valve at the catheter tip is then expanded to its functional size at the site of the defective native valve, such as by inflating a balloon on which the prosthetic valve is mounted. Alternatively, the prosthetic valve can have a resilient, self-expanding stent or frame that expands the prosthetic valve to its functional size when it is advanced from a delivery sheath at the distal end of the catheter.
The native valve annulus in which an expandable prosthetic valve is deployed typically has an irregular shape mainly due to calcification. As a result, small gaps may exist between the expanded frame of the prosthetic valve and the surrounding tissue. The gaps can allow for regurgitation (leaking) of blood flowing in a direction opposite the normal flow of blood through the valve. To minimize regurgitation, various sealing devices have been developed that seal the interface between the prosthetic valve and the surrounding tissue. |

Comparative study of the linear solvation energy relationship, linear solvent strength theory, and typical-conditions model for retention prediction in reversed-phase liquid chromatography.
This paper describes two new retention models for predicting retention under different reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) conditions. The first one is a global linear solvation energy relationship (LSER) that expresses retention as a function of both solute LSER descriptors and mobile phase composition. The second is a so-called "typical-conditions model" that expresses retention under a given chromatographic condition as a linear function of retention under different so-called "typical" conditions. The global LSER was derived by combining the local LSER model and the linear solvent strength theory (LSST) of RPLC. Compared to local LSER and the LSST models, the global LSER model requires far fewer retention measurements for calibrating the model when different solutes and different mobile phase compositions are involved. Its fitting performance is equal to the local LSER model but worse than that of LSST. The poor fit of the global LSER results primarily from the local LSER model and not from the LSST model. The typical-conditions model (TCM) was developed based on a concept of multivariate space that is conceptually compatible with LSER. However, no LSER descriptors are used in the TCM approach. The number of input conditions needed in the typical-conditions model is determined by the chemical diversity of the solutes and the conditions involved. Principal component analysis (PCA) and iterative key set factor analysis (IKSFA) were used to find the number of typical conditions needed for a given data set. Compared to LSER, LSST, and global LSER, the typical-conditions model is more precise and requires fewer retention measurements for calibrating the model when different solutes and different stationary and/or mobile phases are involved. |

“Good fences make good neighbours.” Tell that to the US, which shares a fence with Central America. Tell it to Central America, desperation-driven to test that fence a thousand times or more a year; and then to test the deadlier keep-out zone of the Arizona Desert. Who Is Dayani Cristal?, a documentary produced by Gael García Bernal and directed by Marc Silver, starts with a sight nearly routine for Tucson area locals: the rotting corpse of a migrant, curled up near a cactus. Tattooed on his chest: the words “Dayani Cristal”. Autopsy verdict (unofficial): died of hope.
In a clever wheeze – which unfortunately begins to seem just that – actor/producer García Bernal embeds himself as a pretend migrant, retracing the dead Honduran’s journey. Dusty roads; dangerous borders; dodgy soup kitchens; dazzling sway of the trans-Mexico journey atop the train called La Bestia.
Do we buy a famous Mexican movie star going native with the indigent? (Why don’t they all shout: “Ooh look, it’s Gael García Bernal!”) More interesting – more heartbreaking – is the Stateside battle to sort and identify the tragedies. The Arizona cops and pathologists reach a groping hand towards the south, across that damn fence, and say: “Can you help us? Is this man/woman/child yours?” The identity of the man at the beginning is finally uncovered, like a wound still bleeding under the bandage of time. We meet the wife and family, inconsolable. From them, more than from García Bernal, we learn the cruelty of a system of hope in which the longing for a better life is the bait to lure people to an untimely death. |

Structural-functional relationships in type I insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in humans.
The major renal pathologic changes of diabetes include thickening of all renal extracellular basement membranes and mesangial matrix and, to a lesser extent, mesangial cell expansion. Two renal lesions appear critical in diabetic nephropathy. Mesangial expansion out of proportion to the size of the glomerulus is closely and inversely related to measures of peripheral capillary wall filtration surface and to clinical features of proteinuria, hypertension, and decreasing glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Arteriolar hyalinosis is related to global glomerulosclerosis, and both are correlated with the clinical features of nephropathy. These lesions are markedly advanced by the time renal dysfunction is clinically detectable. Relationships of structure and function early in the course of the diabetes have not been examined satisfactorily. |

The most famous political text from Antiquity is Platos Republic; one notices that this is a direct translation of the Latin De Republica; the orginal greek being Politeia.
Aristotle too, wrote a text called Politics (Politika); and he notes that in his Nicomachean Ethics that politics naturally follows a discussion of his virtue ethics; to legislate towards his ethics:
Must we not, then, next examine whence or how one can learn how to legislate?
Which has a parallel with Platos notion of a Philosopher-King.
What are the major differences between Aristotles Politics and that of Platos? And how influential is Platos text on him; it already seems here, for example that Aristotle is expanding and examining the notion of the Philosopher-King; perhaps identifying it to some extent with the laws of the city (polis); and those who legislate for them; but he notes:
but while the sophists profess to teach politics, it is practised not by any of them but by the politicians, who would seem to do so by dint of a certain skill and experience rather than of thought
Which seems remarkable, in that any art can be practised without thought; but he means by this it seems articulate thought:
For they are not found either writing or speaking about such matters
A:
Plato's and Aristotle's views on politics were very different. Aristotle rejected many of the building blocks of Plato's politics: the theory of Forms (in the Metaphysics), the universal idea of the Good (in the Ethics), the value of Communes (in the Politics).
Further, unlike Plato, Aristotle distinguished "theoretical" philosophy (physics, metaphysics) from "practical" philosophy (ethics, politics). Aristotle agreed with Plato that theoretical philosophy was part of the highest (and potentially happiest) form of human life. But unlike Plato, Aristotle held that theoretical philosophy had no practical value. He even saw its impracticality as a sign of its value: theoretical philosophy has no goal outside of itself. Accordingly, theoretical philosophy played almost no part in Aristotle's ethics and in his politics.
It is plain then that Science [= theoretical philosophy] is the union of Knowledge and Intuition, and has for its objects those things which are most precious in their nature. Accordingly, Anexagoras, Thales, and men of that stamp [= theoretical philosophers], people call Scientific, but not Practically Wise because they see them ignorant of what concerns themselves; and they say that what they know is quite out of the common run certainly, and wonderful, and hard, and very fine no doubt, but still useless because they do not seek after what is good for them as men. (Ethics Book VI)
Aristotle argued against regimes ruled by a small (minority) class, on the ground that such a regime cannot remain stable for long. Aristotle advocated a broad ruling class (the middle class) and a wide participation of citizens in the management of the state.
One factor that Aristotle preserved, as it were, from Plato's politics was the importance of public education. The corriculum of Aristotle's public education system included some forms of gymnastics and of music. Aristotle also suggeted that future rulers and legislators will study ethics and political theory, similar to his own. But he did not relate studies like higher mathematics or theoretical philosophy to the management of the state, as did Plato.
Another political aspect which seems to have been common to Plato and to Aristotle, was that they both viewed the desired state as outwardly peaceful, utilizing military force only for defense, and avoiding the occupation of other states.

Q:
Jsoup - read from an html url where code is hidden
I'm trying to using the jsoup library to get 'li' from a website. The problem is this:
If I open the source of website with CTRL+U(which is the same read by jsoup), the 'ul' tag is hidden.
if I open the code with the fuction "inspect code" of google chrome,'li' are shown.
Posting the code is not necessary; I only want to know how can access to this 'li' with jsoup or other java free libraries, Whereas in the source code(and through jsoup) these informations are hidden.
The site is https://farmaci.agenziafarmaco.gov.it/bancadatifarmaci/cerca-farmaco and try to search something(i.e. Tachi)
A:
The problem with Jsoup is that it won't handle scripts. It is just getting html as it is before the AJAX code is executed.
You can use something like HtmlUnit, which is basically a GUI-less browser. So, it can handle scripts.
You can try something like this after getting the HtmlUnit library:
String url = "https://farmaci.agenziafarmaco.gov.it/bancadatifarmaci/cerca-farmaco?search=Tachi";
try(final WebClient webClient = new WebClient()) {
final HtmlPage page = webClient.getPage(url);
final HtmlUnorderedList list = page.getHtmlElementById("ul_farm_results");
System.out.println(list.asText());
}
I couldn't check the code as the website's certificate is improperly configured and I didn't want to import it's certificate. You may want to take a look at this to resolve the certificate errors.

Devices that use wireless signaling are ubiquitous to contemporary life. Non-limiting examples of such (wireless) devices include cellular telephones, text messaging units, personal digital assistants (PDAs), and laptop and palmtop computers. Respective such devices typically include one or more modes of operation such as, for example, unidirectional or bidirectional voice, video and/or data communications, Internet accessibility, remote control functionality, etc.
However, such devices are dependent upon access to wireless resources (i.e., networks or infrastructure) external to the device in order for corresponding wireless functions to operate. For example, a cellular telephone requires a period of continuous signal access to a cellular network in order to initiate and maintain a call. Such external resources are, as a matter of practicality, finite in their geographic coverage range and scope of operational modes. In short, worldwide coverage for all wireless devices, everywhere that a user might want or need signal access, is not a reality.
Furthermore, various factors result in poor or non-existent signal access in areas that are otherwise proximate to wireless service infrastructure. As one example, a user might temporarily lose wireless signal access while traveling through a tunnel in a downtown area. In another example, a user is denied wireless access while stuck in traffic because other wireless users are utilizing all of the available support resources. These and other scenarios cause frustration and loss of productivity for users of wireless technology. |
Losing memories during sleep after targeted memory reactivation.
Targeting memories during sleep opens powerful and innovative ways to influence the mind. We used targeted memory reactivation (TMR), which to date has been shown to strengthen learned episodes, to instead induce forgetting (TMR-Forget). Participants were first trained to associate the act of forgetting with an auditory forget tone. In a second, separate, task they learned object-sound-location pairings. Shortly thereafter, some of the object sounds were played during slow wave sleep, paired with the forget tone to induce forgetting. One week later, participants demonstrated lower recall of reactivated versus non-reactivated objects and impaired recognition memory and lowered confidence for the spatial location of the reactivated objects they failed to spontaneously recall. The ability to target specific episodic memories for forgetting during sleep has implications for developing novel therapeutic techniques for psychological disorders such as PTSD and phobias. |
Using computer modeling to predict and optimize separations for comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography.
In order to fully realize the separation power of comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC x GC), a means of predicting and optimizing separations based on operating variables was developed. This approach initially calculates the enthalpy (DeltaH) and entropy (DeltaS) for the target compounds from experimental input data, and then uses this information to simultaneously optimize all column and runtime variables, including stationary phase composition, by comparing the performance of large numbers of simulated separations. This use of computer simulation has been shown to be a useful aid in conventional separations. It becomes almost essential for GC x GC optimization because of the large number of variables involved and their very complex interaction. Agreement between experimental and predicted values of standard test samples (Grob mix) using GC x GC separation shows that this approach is accurate. We believe that this success can be extended to more challenging mixtures resulting in optimizations that are simpler and transferable between GC x GC instruments. |
Man, Hazel sure loves drinking out of the toilet. I used to think that was more of a dog habit, but I was wrong.
I’m not sure what the allure of it is, we give her water in her cat bowl all the time, but every chance she gets she’s up there just slurping away.
Believe it or not, Olive never drinks out of the toilet, she just jumped in that one time because you know, you only live once.
That’s why cat PSA’s would come in handy, something similar to the clips shown at the end of the G.I. Joe cartoons from the ’80s. Each one featured a certain Joe stepping in and providing useful tips on safety to misguided youths who were playing with fire, wondering off in crowds, falling out of trees, etc, etc. “So now you know, and knowing is half the battle,” was the famous catch phrase that capped off each segment.
Too bad it’s almost impossible to teach a cat anything. |
Protein synthesis in cells infected by murine hepatitis viruses JHM and A59: tryptic peptide analysis.
The structural and intracellular proteins of the murine hepatitis viruses MHV-JHM and MHV-A59 were studied by tryptic peptide mapping. The results demonstrated that the virions contained three distinct proteins: the two related chains of the E2 complex, the nucleocapsid protein and the heterogeneous E1 complex. Five distinct virus-specific proteins were synthesized by infected cells. Three of the five intracellular proteins contained tryptic-peptides with properties similar to the three structural proteins. Models describing the evolution of the proteins are proposed. Although the pathogenic properties of MHV-JHM and MHV-A59 differ greatly, the tryptic peptide maps of the corresponding proteins of these MHV strains were remarkably similar. |

Fluorescent location of human colonic tumour cells by means of an enzyme-inhibitor complex.
We studied the enzymic status of the tumour cell surface protease, guanidinobenzoatase (GB) in frozen sections of a human colonic tumour grown in nude mice and also in human colons. Active enzyme was demonstrated by the binding of a synthetic fluorescent probe for the active centre of guanidinobenzoatase (GB). It was observed that tissue derived inhibitors of GB blocked the binding of this fluorescent probe and that enzyme inhibitor complex formation could be controlled by lowering the pH of the medium with lactic acid. The presence of an inhibitor of GB in the mouse tumour extract was taken advantage of by making two fluorescent derivatives of this inhibitor; both of which located GB on colonic tumour cells in frozen sections of human colon. |

Understanding the role of crying and it's place in supporting your mental and physical wellbeing
Have you ever cried so deeply that it felt good? Perhaps it happened when you watched the end of a particularly sad movie or heard a song that pulled at your heart strings. Maybe you were experiencing a week of feeling overwhelmed or depressed and it finally culminated in tears.
Yet instead of feeling completely knocked out by the expenditure of energy, tears, and tissues, you felt surprisingly light afterward. It’s as if your mind and body had been rejuvenated and any dark clouds hanging over you seemed to dissapate.
If you’ve experienced this, you’re not alone. In fact, you’ve experienced a natural part of how the body and mind work together to help heal and renew themselves.
The science of emotions in the body
In his seminal book, The Body Keeps the Score, Psychiatrist Dr. Bessel Van der Kolk explains that people carry emotions on not only a mental level, but on a physical level as well. In other words, emotional energy gets stored in the body.
Dr. Van der Kolk writes that in extreme cases, the toll of unprocessed emotions can be so great that it causes adverse effects on a person’s physical health in the form of illness.
Similarly, Dr. Peter Levine, a leading somatic psychologist and the creator of the international renown modality Somatic Experiencing, discovered that humans and animals share a similar set of tools for expelling stuck emotional energy. When a prey animal like a gazelle is nearly caught by a cheetah but survives, this near-death-experience is later processed by the gazelle. In fact, nearly all vertebrates that experience near-death-experiences in the wild undergo a similar ritual of finding a safe place and physically ‘shaking out’ the energy of fear and shock that occurred earlier.
Through his observations in nature, Dr. Levine pioneered various mind-body approaches to help clients that had not benefited from traditional talk therapy use body awareness to heal stuck emotions of grief, fear, trauma, anger and more.
Why it feels good to cry
Think back to the last time you had a truly good cry. Think about what it was like to cry and how you acted. Set aside what you were thinking at the time and consider what your body was doing.
What you might be surprised to remember is that this experience didn’t simply involve tears streaming down your face; your body was quite active as well. This is because a good cry, the kind that feels cathartic afterward, is by nature a physical exercise.
If you don’t fight the process, your entire body gets involved in the expression of sadness. The body becomes tense and starts moving in a variety of ways. Your face might become constricted sometimes the point of hurting your cheeks. Often times you start clenching your fists or shaking your arms. Your neck might pull back pointing your face up to the sky or it may start twisting back and forth like you’re shaking your head to say ‘no.’ Perhaps most common of all is that you may feel shakey both during and after crying in this way.
These physical expressions of saddness are all part of the mechanism your mind and body uses to release accumulated emotional energy of hurt, anger or grief. In other words, a deep cry is one of your best tools for processing experiences that elicited a strong emotional charge in you. And the benefits of a cry like this can be felt in the resulting elevated mood or a strong sense of calm shortly thereafter.
Crying as a form of self-care
It’s worth pointing out that even our language hints at how crying helps heal us. A common way of describing someone who cried deeply is to say they ‘broke down.’
Though a breakdown might sound like a bad thing, on a physiological level, this description is truer than you may realize. Crying helps you break down the old and make space for a new experience. Crying moves you forward. Crying can be critical to finding closure in the face of grief. Crying allows you to process a painful experience that you didn’t have the time or ability to work through at the moment that you lived it.
Whether you’re experiencing a good cry in a therapist’s office, listening to a sad song, watching a movie, or simply in the privacy of your home, the experience feels good afterward because it’s the body’s natural way of healing, processing and growing. Crying is more than just cathartic, according to several leading voices in the field of somatic or body-based psychology, crying can be a necessary part of supporting your mental and physical health in the long run.

Q:
UI Design / Flow - what should "Save" and "Cancel" do?
I had a discussion with a co-worker earlier today about a design pet peeve of mine, and after some searching regarding UI design principles I can't really find anything regarding this particular scenario.
In many applications (mostly web, but windows as well) I see a form that allows the user to add/edit/delete rows of data. This form has "Save" and "Cancel" buttons that only affect the editable fields - record addition/deletion occurs the instant a user clicks "Add" or "Delete".
Example:
In this case, what should the "Save" and "Cancel" buttons do?
My position is that the "Save" and "Cancel" buttons should affect everything (every editable field and every add/edit/delete action) on the form since contextually there is nothing to indicate that they only affect a particular set of actions and/or fields.
My co-worker's position is that it's completely understandable that the "Save" and "Cancel" buttons only affect the fields, and that users won't really notice that additions/deletions are persisted without clicking "Save".
I realize some of this may be "what do the users want/need", but I'm curious what other developers think.
A:
I feel an ambiguous design is a bad design.
Make it clear to the user what will happen. Perhaps an 'add' link in the row you're modifying. Or use ajax like functionality to add it on the fly (this becomes harder when you require data for certain fields).
Or color the row a different color when it's unsaved. Or fade from green to the normal color after it's been added. The cancel button, if clicked, should alert the user that unsaved data will be lost (whatever that actually means in this scenario). It might say "the following records will not be saved..."
The fact that both of you disagree means users will also. And a surprised user is an unhappy user.
A:
Your coworker is right; Save and Cancel should only affect field edits, not additions or deletions. Additions and deletions are perceived by the user (and generally implemented) as separate operations.
Conceptually, a record must be added to the database before you can perform an edit on it, so to implement a save in the way that you propose requires that you wrap the entire thing in a transaction.
Remember, the user can always undo a record addition by deleting it. So conceptually, the "Cancel" is the Edit undo, while the "Delete" is the Add undo.

Q:
How to add onClick event on a dynamically created button
I am trying to append a block of element everytime I receive a message.
It is basically a simple chat.
So every time a new chat is received , the new message will be appended to the div.
But how I'm not able to add an onClick event to it
This is the line : <button class="likeBtn" onClick={this.pointButton}><i class="far fa-heart"></i></button>
let msgLeft = document.getElementById("msg-left");
if (this.state.username === data.username) {
msgLeft.insertAdjacentHTML(
"beforeend",
`<div class="main-c-container-right">
<div class="c-image"></div>
<div class="c-text-container">
<div class="c-name">
${data.username}
</div>
<div class="c-text">
<div class="c-pointer"></div>
${data.message.replace(/\n/g, "<br>")}
</div>
<div class="c-time">
${currentTime}
</div>
<button class="likeBtn" onClick={this.pointButton}><i class="far fa-heart"></i></button>
</div>
</div>`
);
A:
Basically what you need to do is to hold the array of elements somewhere (local state, redux,etc..) and display the array of elements on the JSX.
If you need to add a new element to this array, you just need to update this value with the new element and React will know how to re-render everything again.
You don't need to directly manipulate the DOM while using React.

Q:
mongo query is not working properly on linux server PHP mongo linux
I have a mongo query which works nice on my local machine on windows
but on the server, which uses linux the same query is not working
By is not working I mean that it executes correctly but is not able to find the data that corresponds to this criteria.
MDB::alloc()->{COLL_wall}->remove(
array(
'_id' => new MongoId($wid),
'$or' => array(
array(wall_owner => $this->id),
array(wall_writter => $this->id)
),
wall_owner => $wallOwner
),
array(
'safe' => true
)
);
what can be the problem?
A:
Most probably the problem is that your machine on linux the version of mongo is much older and for this reason "or" statement is not working there
Check both your versions and upgrade if necessary.

Atheism at a glance
Atheism is the absence of belief in any Gods or spiritual beings. The word Atheism comes from a, meaning without, and theism meaning belief in god or gods.
Atheists don't use God to explain the existence of the universe.
Atheists say that human beings can devise suitable moral codes to live by without the aid of Gods or scriptures.
Reasons for non-belief
People are atheist for many reasons, among them:
They find insufficient evidence to support any religion.
They think that religion is nonsensical.
They once had a religion and have lost faith in it.
They live in a non-religious culture.
Religion doesn't interest them.
Religion doesn't seem relevant to their lives.
Religions seem to have done a lot of harm in the world.
The world is such a bad place that there can't be a God.
Many atheists are also secularist, and are hostile to any special treatment given to organised religion.
It is possible to be both atheist and religious. Virtually all Buddhists manage it, as do some adherents of other religions,such as Judaism and Christianity.
Atheists and morality
Atheists are as moral (or immoral) as religious people.
In practical terms atheists often follow the same moral code as religious people, but they arrive at the decision of what is good or bad without any help from the idea of God.
What does it mean to be human?
Atheists find their own answers to the question of what it means to be human. This discussion looks at the question from both theological and ethical viewpoints. |
Tehran, YJC. Boroujerdi says that Iran is the leading power in regional defense.
Chairman
of the National Security and Foreign Policy of the Majlis said "Iran’s Ministry
of Defense has a special place in the regional deterrence. Iran’s power in the
region and the world is so great that no superpower the like of America would
dare attack the country. They struck nuclear sites in Iraq and Syria but dared
not attack Iran.”
"After
the revolution, since they didn’t have the F14 in their air force, the US
destroyed their entire arsenal that belonged to the fighter with the intention
to prevent the parts being smuggled to Iran. But our experts, relying on
national abilities, rebuilt all the parts inside the country.”
He also
pointed to the Iranian nuclear case being pursued by the US and said "The
outcome of this international encounter between Iran and the US will be the
recognition of Iran’s nuclear right and power.”
Boroujerdi
added "The fact that John Kerry says the Fordo facilities must be removed is
because they know that with passive defense, they do not have the power to
attack the facilities.” |

I want to prove $\gcd(a,b)=\gcd(b,a)$. I tried using the euclidean algorithm but that didn't help me much.
A:
If $\gcd(a,b)=x$ then $x \mid a$ and $x\mid b$ this implies $x \mid \gcd(b,a)$. By similar argument $\gcd(b,a)\mid\gcd(a,b).$ i.e., $\gcd(a,b) = \gcd(b,a). $

Many swimmers use swimming caps to cover their heads during swimming. Swimming caps generally cover the upper portion of the swimmer's ears and contain the swimmer's hair during swimming. In competitive swimming where winning margins are often measured in hundredths of a second, a swim cap may be particularly important for reducing the hydrodynamic drag on the swimmer. A conventional swim cap covers the crown of a swimmer's head, a portion of the swimmer's forehead and the ears, and the upper portion of the nape of the neck. The wearer's hair is generally tucked inside the cap during use.
Conventional swim caps are typically generally hemispherical in shape and are made from a relatively thin, pliant, stretchable, and resilient material, such as a manmade fabric (e.g., spandex), silicone, or latex. Silicone and latex are convenient materials for swim caps due to their relative toughness, flexibility, and easy manufacturability. The pliability of the conventional swim cap is particularly important when the swimmer is engaging in strokes requiring a high degree of arch in the back and neck, such as the butterfly stroke, so that the swim cap does not interfere when the swimmer's neck is arched back.
A disadvantage of conventional swim caps, however, is that the upper portion of the swim cap tends to deform during use, forming transverse wrinkles, particularly over the crown of the swimmer's head. These transverse wrinkles result from a variety of factors, including the highly flexible and stretchable materials used to form the swim cap, the swimmer's hair enclosed by the swim cap, the motion of the swimmer's head and neck, and hydrodynamic and other forces acting on the swim cap during entry into the water and swimming. The transverse wrinkling reduces the efficiency of the swimmer by increasing the hydrodynamic drag as the water flows about the swim cap. In addition, during use a conventional swim cap typically covers only the upper portion of the swimmer's ears, leaving a portion of the ears in the flow stream.
It would therefore be beneficial to provide a swim cap that adequately covers portions of the swimmer's head and hair, including all of the swimmer's ears, but that does not tend to form wrinkles or otherwise deform to reduce the efficiency of the swimmer in the water. |
Q:
WPF connect two windows to drag and resize
I want to create a sort of side-window next to another window.
It should resize with the mainwindow and also move with it when I drag the mainwindow. How do I do this?
A:
the first thing you do is to create your second window.
SecondWindow secondwindow;
Then you call the window directly next to your MainWindow.
secondwindow = new Secondwindow();
secondwindow.WindowStartupLocation = WindowStartupLocation.Manual;
secondwindow.Left = this.Left + this.Width;
secondwindow.Top = this.Top;
secondwindow.Height = this.Height;
secondwindow.Show();
If you want the second window to resize with your MainWindow (I guess just the height) type this in your
MainWindow - SizeChanged - event.
private void mainwindow_SizeChanged(object sender, SizeChangedEventArgs e)
{
if (secondwindow != null)
{
secondwindow.Left = this.Left + this.Width;
secondwindow.Top = this.Top;
secondwindow.Height = this.Height;
}
}
Same without the height-change for the LocationChanged.
private void mainwindow_LocationChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (secondwindow != null)
{
secondwindow.Left = this.Left + this.Width;
secondwindow.Top = this.Top;
}
}

The newest film in the Pixar SparkShorts series is called “Kitbull,” and it’s probably going to make you cry.
The sweet short film tells a tale of unlikely friendship between a fiercely independent stray kitten and a pit bull. As every cat owner knows, it can take a while for cats to warm up, especially when they feel threatened by a much larger creature. But as this short shows, sometimes cats and dogs can make the best of friends.
“Kitbull” was written and directed by Rosana Sullivan and produced by Kathryn Hendrickson. Meet the team behind this heartwarming new short in the video below.
And get a behind-the-scenes look at the making of this 2D-animated short here:
This film is the third release in the Pixar SparkShorts series, following “Purl” and “Smash and Grab.” Jim Morris, President of Pixar Animation Studios, says, “The SparkShorts program is designed to discover new storytellers, explore new storytelling techniques, and experiment with new production workflows. These films are unlike anything we’ve ever done at Pixar, providing an opportunity to unlock the potential of individual artists and their inventive filmmaking approaches on a smaller scale than our normal fare.”
Additional projects from the SparkShorts program will debut on Disney+, Disney’s upcoming streaming service set to launch later this year. |
Computed tomography in the diagnosis of parotid gland tumours.
Twenty patients with swelling of the parotid region have been examined by computed tomography (CT). CT correctly demonstrated a mass in eleven patients and correctly excluded a mass in nine patients. Five patients had primary parotid neoplasms, all of which showed higher attenuation values than normal salivary tissue. The other masses included cystic hygroma, branchial cyst, carotid sheath hamartoma and metastases in the region of the gland. Neither intravenous nor intraglandular contrast medium was necessary for diagnosis. CT is superior to sialography in demonstrating the total extent of a mass, particularly when there is involvement of the deep lobe of the gland or the parapharyngeal space. The appearance at CT following sialography with oily contrast media suggest that oil persists in the gland despite apparent complete clearing at sialography. CT should be regarded as the investigation of choice in patients with clinical features suggesting a mass in the region of the parotid. |
Socioeconomic Status, Family Functioning and Delayed Care Among Children With Special Needs.
Parents of children with special healthcare needs (CSHCN) face tremendous stress in caring for their children. Families of CSHCN face increased barriers to health services as evidence also reflects the influence of socioeconomic factors on access. This study investigates the impact of socioeconomic factors and family functioning on delayed care. Descriptive, bivariate, and adjusted multivariate logistic regression were performed using sampling weights. findings suggest that family dynamics are more impactful on delayed care than socioeconomic predictors. Promoting family-centered care that incorporates social support for families to reduce barriers is essential for improved quality of life and health outcomes. |

Q:
Storing URLs in a JSON and calling in JavaScript
I am fairly new to programming and currently writing a bot for Discord using the Discord.js library, and when a user enters a command, I would like it to randomly select a link and send it. I have a system like that setup, but all of the links are being stored in an array inside the .js file, and it's very tedious to add new links when I choose to. I am wondering how I could store a list of links inside a JSON and then randomize and send on command. Thank you! :)
A:
I have a command where I save links into a text file and also a randomizer that takes a random line from that text file and posts in channel.
I'll just give you the code and you can use/play around with it if you want.
if (message.content.startsWith(prefix + "save")) {
fs.appendFileSync("links.txt", message.content + "\r\n", encoding = "utf8");
message.channel.send("Saved.");
}
if (message.content.startsWith(prefix + "link")) {
fs.readFile("links.txt", "utf8", function(err, data) {
if (err) return console.error(err);
var lines = data.split("\r\n"); //reads it line by line
var linesTotal = lines.length;
var lineSend = Math.floor(Math.random() * linesTotal);
var randomMsg = lines[lineSend];
message.channel.send(randomMsg);
});
}
