At the end of the last episode we saw a number of doctors at Seattle Grace in a crashed plane. Now comes the aftermath.
In this opening scene from the episode, we get a look at the horrifying circumstances following the crash. After an opening shot that more than resembles the first scene of Lost, there are basically five people in trouble.
-Lexie is trapped in the rubble and is in serious danger.-Derek's arm is trapped and he apparently crushes his hand with a rock to free himself. That can't be good for a surgeon.-Arizona can see her bone, which is funny because she's married to an orthopedic surgeon.-The pilot is paralyzed (and will soon be taken by the Black Smoke Monster).-Cristina lost her shoe.
This video is not for the squeamish, so be warned. But it is intense and promises to start one of the show's best hours ever. |

Q:
How to setup alarms again after reboot
I am building an alarm clock application, then is purely dependent on alerting the user during the proper time an alarm is to go off. However, reading about AlarmManager, it appears that at device reboot, all alarms are removed.
As my app would then be rendered worthless if all the users alarms were erased, how can I prevent that from happening/ensure that all alarms are always in place whether reboot or not?
A:
Have your application handle the ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED intent to install alarms at boot:
Broadcast Action: This is broadcast once, after the system has finished booting. It can be used to perform application-specific initialization, such as installing alarms. You must hold the RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED permission in order to receive this broadcast.

Q:
Comparison of Icons
I am trying to do the game called TicTacToe but now I am stopped on one point:
private void jButton1ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
if (player==true){
jButton1.setIcon(new javax.swing.ImageIcon("x2.png"));
player=false;
} else {
jButton1.setIcon(new javax.swing.ImageIcon("o2.png"));
player=true;
}
if (this.jButton1.getIcon()==this.jButton2.getIcon()){
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"Win!");
}
}
I have done this for all buttons.
When I have these three buttons with the same icon, the message does not appear. Why?
A:
Check for the difference of == and equals. I quess you have different objects. And with == you check if its the same object. You should have a "player variable" which you should compare.
Implement a method jButton1.getTeamName() and compare that values.

Comparison of a system of staff prompting with a programmable electronic diary in a patient with Korsakoff's syndrome.
The effect of a programmable electronic diary was compared with a system of staff prompting on the attendance at Occupational Therapy groups of a patient with Korsakoff's syndrome. Throughout the baseline period, the subject did not attend any groups. With the help of verbal prompting and other staff intervention, his attendance at groups increased significantly. By the fourteeth week he was attending all groups without verbal prompting apparently by using other environmental cues. The introduction of the electronic diary at this point was not found to increase the subject's attendance at groups further or to reduce the need for verbal prompting presumably due to a "ceiling effect". These findings suggest that despite severe memory impairment, the patient with Korsakoff's syndrome is able to learn new information. The potential of the electronic diary for reducing staff input and its use in a less predictable setting need to be evaluated further. |
Promoting the management of weight reduction.
Many people try to lose weight. Health providers who try to help these people often feel frustrated, as do the patients, because long-term success is rarely experienced, especially for those patients whose weight is a serious medical problem. A new approach is offered in which the client assumes responsibility for weight loss, and the role of the health provider is to help the client become an increasingly independent manager of his or her own weight reduction. An instrument is offered that guides the clients through the planning, conducting, and assessing of their own actions. |
Q:
Is there an easy way of clearing a pipe in C
I have a pipe that all my child processes use, but before a child uses the pipe to talk to the parent I need to clear it so that the parent reads from it correctly. Is there a simple function in C to do this?
A:
The way to "clear" a pipe is to read from it until the buffer is empty. This doesn't help you. I am guessing that your real problem is that the parent might read data that is mixed from multiple clients. There are two easy solutions to your problem.
Always write messages less than PIPE_BUF bytes long, and do this in a single call to write. This will ensure that writes to the pipe are atomic.
Use a separate pipe for each child process. On the server side, either use threads or use nonblocking IO with select or poll. Equivalently, you could use a Unix domain socket, and have each client connect to the socket (this is really just a different way of creating the separate pipes).

Utilization of endogenous and dietary urea in the large intestine of the mature horse.
The dynamics of N metabolism in mature horses were investigated when they were fed on a low-N diet or the same diet supplemented with sufficient urea or soybean meal to meet their theoretical N requirements. There were no differences in DM, organic matter or neutral-detergent-fibre digestibilities for the three diets. N digestibilities and digestible-N intakes were similar for the urea- and soyabean-supplemented diets and very low for the low-N diet. For all three diets plasma urea was degraded in the digestive tract to NH3 which was utilized by the bacterial population as a N source. NH3 was absorbed from the large intestine into the blood and converted to urea. NH3 was also incorporated into plasma proteins. The horses fed on the low-N diet degraded a greater proportion of endogenous urea in the digestive tract than did horses fed on the urea-or soyabean-supplemented diets. However, the horses fed on the urea diet had the highest degradation rate of urea. The quantity of urea degraded in the digestive tract of horses fed on the urea-supplemented and the low-N diets could not compensate for a lack of dietary crude protein in these diets. The horses were in a negative N balance when fed on the low-N and urea-supplemented diets and a positive N balance when fed on the soyabean-supplemented diet. Dietary urea supplementation did not benefit the horses. |
Coronary artery disease in a child with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia: Regression after liver transplantation.
Children with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia are at risk for early cardiovascular events secondary to coronary artery disease. Current medical therapy does not ameliorate this risk. Liver transplantation offers the most effective option to reduce circulating levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and thereby reduce risk of cardiovascular events. Angiographic evidence of regression of coronary artery disease is presented. |

XNet: A Bayesian Approach to Extracted Ion Chromatogram Clustering for Precursor Mass Spectrometry Data.
Liquid chromatography mass spectrometry is a popular technique for high throughput analysis of biological samples. Identification and quantification of molecular species via mass spectrometry output requires postexperimental computational analysis of the raw instrument output. While tandem mass spectrometry remains a primary method for identification and quantification, species-resolved precursor data provides a rich source of unexploited information. Several algorithms have been proposed to resolve raw precursor signals into species-resolved isotopic envelopes. Many methods are particularly dependent on user parameters, and because they lack a means to optimize parameters, tend to perform poorly. To this end we present XNet, a parameter-less Bayesian machine learning approach to isotopic envelope extraction through the clustering of extracted ion chromatograms. We evaluate the performance of XNet and other prevalent methods on a quantitative ground truth data set. XNet is publicly available with an Apache license. |
I just read an interview with Glenn Christenson, CFO of Station Casinos
(NYSE: STN). His company is the "big player" among casinos that target the
locals in Las Vegas. I live in Las Vegas and I am a casual player who
patronizes a couple of the properties.
The tough question that must be asked is this: What is the typical gaming
company doing to deliver value to the shareholders?
I ask this question because of my experience while owning the stock of a
different casino company. A couple of years ago, I bought shares of
Circus-Circus (now Mandalay Resorts) when they were building their Luxor
property, and while they were getting good earnings from the Excalibur and
Circus-Circus properties. My experience when their earnings dropped off was
very discouraging. I watched the stock price tumble, while the company
directors just sat there and wrung their hands and mumbled about how bad
things were. I even called the investor relations department (and had a short
conversation with their CFO) to suggest that the company consider
repurchasing shares from the open market. He was not receptive to the idea.
Nor was the company.
I believe that these companies use all their "earnings" to refurbish their
properties, and that they don't accurately record the depreciation for those
properties on their books. For several years, Circus-Circus had the
reputation of generating enough cash flow to expand without resorting to
borrowing to raise the needed money. But as they built their properties, the
amount of debt went up. Station Casinos is in much the same situation now as
Circus-Circus was in a few years ago. They have the "new" properties that
attract the players, but that will change in a few years as these places
start to show some signs of wear and tear, and as competitors build new
properties.
The gaming industry is intensely competitive, with lots of potential to
deliver earnings. It is said that a casino will deliver more earnings per
square foot of floor space than any other building (maybe beating out even
the virtual ones on the Web). But the potential to "skim" money from the till
is pretty great. We should ask these people what they do to keep the profits
from lining the pockets of the people in the company. I believe that most of
the safeguards can be defeated, and that a lot of potential earnings are
being lost. Further, there is not a lot more that the industry can do about
it.
I was burned once, during the time that I owned Circus-Circus stock. I
decided then that there is no real interest to deliver value to the
shareholders. Indeed, I think the real function of the shareholders is to
provide an aura of legitimacy to the business of gambling. It provides the
illusion that anyone can be a part-owner of a casino through ownership of
stock. But the only way that these companies (who in general pay no
dividends) can deliver value to the shareholders is through price
appreciation of their stock.
The casino industry, muck like the auto industry, expands and contracts with
the economy. Just a few years ago, there was concern on the Las Vegas strip
that there were too many hotel rooms out there for the number of visitors.
Now we are in a time of expansion for those casinos who cater to the locals,
but, since many competitors are piling on, this market will also be saturated
in time. |
Excavators usually have a bucket or shovel, and teeth are attached to the leading edge of the bucket, to assist in penetrating the material. The teeth are subject to heavy wear. They are replaced at frequent service intervals.
Tooth retention devices are provided which attach to the leading edge of the bucket. These devices have mechanisms which secure the individual teeth. They permit the release and replacement of the teeth as required.
The tooth retention devices are also subject to heavy wear. They are releasably secured to the leading edge of the bucket. They must also be removed and replaced as required.
The invention is directed to such tooth retention devices, and to a system for attaching and releasing them without the use of hammers. |

Brave, truthful and unselfish
The story of Pinocchio has always been an exciting story and lesson for me. This little wooden toy’s success in becoming a real man lies in his ability to be brave, truthful and unselfish. How apt this is for our time! If we were all a little braver, more truthful and less selfish the world would be a different place!
Before sinking into negativity, I know that we are all very brave, truthful and selfless in so many fronts of our life and let us congratulate ourselves on that! Pat on the shoulders, great!
But the point in question is inviting me to play with some ideas. If I was braver…hmmm…let’s see what I would do:
– I would not do agree on some things that I have agreed all these years.
– I would tell people who hurt me so that I find peace in my heart.
– I would use up my bungee jumping ticket
– I would not be harbouring fears in my heart about my future but remember Rumi who said: As you start on the way, the road appears.
– I would say YES even more often! I would also say NO when I really want to
Courage is a beautiful word that fires up everything we do. It enflames passion and our hearts beyond anything! Courage is the essence of human existence, without it we would never experience real joy, depth or the colours of life! Courage is not the absence of fear, it is the mastery of fear! We do things well knowing that there is danger in it, yet we do it because it is often the right thing to do and this is the only time when we move with the universe! Even if it looks like a failure, we moved together with the beats of the universe and took a tiny step towards our better self. Our courage is our essence and exercising it is the greatest form of self-expression.
If I was more truthful, I would choose my words with more authenticity. I would speak less. I would listen more. I would make a pledge that only the truth and nothing but the truth will leave my lips every day. I would not believe people who say they are honest constantly because I would know that the more they say it, the more they emphasize it, the less it is true.
If I was less selfish? This is a hard one…Being selfless is a tough call for many of us and I do not think I have real answers to this..I would not think twice about doing more for others. I would accept that I have selfish tendencies and make friends with this thought so I can start moving forward. I would love more openly without wanting anything back.
Being less selfish and more selfless is not the same thing! Selfishness draws you in, selflessness pushes you out to the world. Being less selfish is about correcting selfish motives, being more selfless is about bringing more of you into the world of others. |

A Silastic stent for palliation of extrinsic tracheal compression or unresectable tracheobronchial obstruction.
A silicone rubber stent has been used successfully in the treatment of patients with unresectable major airways obstruction. Silicone rubber does not generate secretions in the tracheobronchial tree and may be left in situ for long periods without complications. With effective relief for asphyxia, radiotherapy can be employed safely. |
Together, with Mitchell working on the mechanics and Isaac programming the device, they came up with a piece of wearable technology called ‘aWear’. It works like a portable distress button for elderly patients living in nursing homes or assisted living, which is more effective than standard distress buttons which are usually placed out of reach on the walls. It’s also got an inbuilt accelerometer to detect when a patient has fallen over – even if they can’t reach the button for help.
“Nurses are alerted to the patient’s status via SMS, email, or existing nursing home alarm systems. The web server also receives motion data from the device, and analyses it to determine if a fall has occurred.”
What makes this an award-winning design is the attention to detail that Mitchell and Isaac designed into every aspect of the device, from the way it’s worn to its battery life.
“The device features a replaceable battery which nurses can change at mealtimes, removing the need to take the device off for charging overnight as falls can often occur when patients are getting out of bed. It has also been designed to be worn in multiple configurations such as a watch, brooch, or lanyard.”
Mitchell and Isaac came up with the idea out of concern for Mitch’s great grandmother who lives by herself in an apartment connected to a nursing home. Mitchell was worried that if she fell she’d be unable to call for help, so wanted to use his skills in robotics and mechanics to solve the issue and ensure peace of mind for these residents and their families.
Mitchell is no stranger to putting his mind to solving problems with STEM skills or simply tackling a robotics project just for fun. He’s involved with his local robotics group, UTAS robotics and has devised some curious creations with his engineering skills.
“A couple of my favourites are a voice-activated, upside-down spinning Christmas tree with a marshmallow train,” says Mitchell, and it’s exactly how it sounds. You can watch a video of this festive invention here.
“Another project I’m really proud of is a life-sized Lego Space Invaders pinball machine I made with my dad.”
Creating the ‘aWear’ device feels like it’s just the beginning for Mitchell. If he had unlimited resources, he’d love to focus on making cheaper and more accessible renewable energy sources to combat the devastating effects of man-made climate change. For now, he’s enrolled in a degree in mechatronics at UNSW, and hopes to continue developing the aWear device to make it smaller and more efficient.
If you’re looking to follow in Mitchell’s footsteps, he has some keen words of advice: “Don’t be scared to just make something. All the parts and knowledge you need to get started are readily available. It’s just about diving in, failing and learning from your mistakes.”

Thalamic synaptic transmission of sensory information modulated by synergistic interaction of adenosine and serotonin.
The thalamic synapses relay peripheral sensory information to the cortex, and constitute an important part of the thalamocortical network that generates oscillatory activities responsible for different vigilance (sleep and wakefulness) states. However, the modulation of thalamic synaptic transmission by potential sleep regulators, especially by combination of regulators in physiological scenarios, is not fully characterized. We found that somnogen adenosine itself acts similar to wake-promoting serotonin, both decreasing synaptic strength as well as short-term depression, at the retinothalamic synapse. We then combined the two modulators considering the coexistence of them in the hypnagogic (sleep-onset) state. Adenosine plus serotonin results in robust synergistic inhibition of synaptic strength and dramatic transformation of short-term synaptic depression to facilitation. These synaptic effects are not achievable with a single modulator, and are consistent with a high signal-to-noise ratio but a low level of signal transmission through the thalamus appropriate for slow-wave sleep. This study for the first time demonstrates that the sleep-regulatory modulators may work differently when present in combination than present singly in terms of shaping information flow in the thalamocortical network. The major synaptic characters such as the strength and short-term plasticity can be profoundly altered by combination of modulators based on physiological considerations. |
Q:
React input losing focus when passing value prop through Router "component" attribute
having a major brain fart today. I've tried a bunch of solutions to variations of this problem to no avail. It's an off-week for me and my brain, so I'm sure I'm just missing something stupid.
I'm trying to figure out why my Input component is re-rendering in a way that the input loses focus every time it receives value changes.
I need the username value to be stored in the App component.
I'm guessing it has to do with this Route "component" attribute returning a function, but I'm not entirely sure. I've also tried adding a key prop to various places throughout the app, but no luck.
Here's a link to a watered down codesandbox project.
And this is where I'm guessing something's happening.
component={() => (
<Input value={username} handleValueChange={handleUserNameChange} />
)}
A:
Try instead of component using the render function. In the documentation for component it mentions the component will be re-mounted/re-created every render, which is why you are losing focus:
When you use component (instead of render or children, below) the
router uses React.createElement to create a new React element from the
given component. That means if you provide an inline function to the
component prop, you would create a new component every render. This
results in the existing component unmounting and the new component
mounting instead of just updating the existing component. When using
an inline function for inline rendering, use the render or the
children prop (below).
<Route
exact
path="/input"
render={() => (
<Input
key={"foo"}
value={username}
handleValueChange={handleUserNameChange}
/>
)}
/>
Here is an example in action.

Slipped epiphysis associated with hypothyroidism.
Seven cases of slipped capital femoral epiphysis appearing concurrently with juvenile hypothyroidism are reported. This association seems to occur more commonly than the general incidence of slipped capital femoral epiphysis or of juvenile hypothyroidism would suggest, and the thyroid hormone deficiency and a diminished strength of the epiphyseal growth plate of the upper femur appear to be associated. Although concrete scientific data are as yet not available to define clearly the effect of thyroid hormone on the growth plate, the possible pathophysiology is discussed in light of available data. |
Electronic displays are a nearly ubiquitous medium for communicating information to users of a wide variety of devices and products. Among the most commonly found electronic displays are the cathode ray tube (CRT), plasma display panels (PDP), liquid crystal displays (LCD), electroluminescent displays (EL), organic light emitting diode (OLED) and active matrix OLEDs (AMOLED) displays, electrophoretic displays (EP) and various displays that employ electromechanical or electrofluidic light modulation (e.g., digital micromirror devices, electrowetting displays, etc.). In general, electronic displays may be categorized as either active displays (i.e., displays that emit light) or passive displays (i.e., displays that modulate light provided by another source). Among the most obvious examples of active displays are CRTs, PDPs and OLEDs/AMOLEDs. Displays that are typically classified as passive when considering emitted light are LCDs and EP displays. Passive displays, while often exhibiting attractive performance characteristics including, but not limited to, inherently low power consumption, may find somewhat limited use in many practical applications given the lack of an ability to emit light.
To overcome the applicability limitations of passive displays associated with light emission, many passive displays are coupled to an external light source. The coupled light source may allow these otherwise passive displays to emit light and function substantially as an active display. Examples of such coupled light sources are backlights. Backlights are light sources (often so-called ‘panel’ light sources) that are placed behind an otherwise passive display to illuminate the passive display. For example, a backlight may be coupled to an LCD or an EP display. The backlight emits light that passes through the LCD or the EP display. The light emitted by the backlight is modulated by the LCD or the EP display and the modulated light is then emitted, in turn, from the LCD or the EP display. Often backlights are configured to emit white light. Color filters are then used to transform the white light into various colors used in the display. The color filters may be placed at an output of the LCD or the EP display (less common) or between the backlight and the LCD or the EP display, for example. Alternatively, the various colors may be implemented by field-sequential illumination of a display using different colors, such as primary colors.
Certain examples and embodiments have other features that are one of in addition to and in lieu of the features illustrated in the above-referenced figures. These and other features are detailed below with reference to the above-referenced figures. |

The majority of laboratories that facilitate ANCA testing use commercial kits. Although in-house assays are not encouraged in routine clinical laboratories, knowledge on the methodological aspects of the assay remains of importance. These aspects include choice of substrate, choice of fixative, staining procedure, and interpretation procedure. In this paper details on the methodology are provided and discussed in the context of the clinical application. |
Ask HN: Do people need websites without JavaScript or it just niche? - kuesji
as owner of withoutjs.org domain i curious about your thoughts.<p><i>i haven't created a site for the domain yet</i>
======

I treat Javascript as an embellishment. I try to think of sites as electric
stairs that still work even when they are turned off. A site should be as
accessible as possible.
------
osdiab
The impact of having a site work without JS depends on who your site targets -
if your site is mostly focused on young US professionals in cities using
Macbooks and iPhones, bandwidth and browser support is going to be good enough
with or without JS; you might lose out on some market share from accessibility
if your site is poorly accessible, but it’s unlikely to be make or break for
your site.
If your site is supporting elderly people in developing nations on low-specced
computers/phones, probably a website isn’t even the best vehicle for your
product, but supporting no-JS might be more significant for accessibility and
bandwidth reasons.
I suspect the vast majority of products people work on here would not gain
much by working without JS, although some passionate and outspoken people make
it seem otherwise.

Depends on what people mean by 'websites'.
There's a lot of pie in the sky JavaScript discussion where folks talk about
going without / this site doesn't need JS and so forth and I imagine they're
talking about sites largely with static content and text where the user just
consumes that and doesn't interact much beyond navigation.
I think those are valid points to some extent... and I'm not sure how many
sites really are purely static no matter how much we might wish they were. I
admit I miss that internet too but ...
On the other hand I work on a lot of 'web applications' for businesses... zero
JS is not really an option.
As for how many people care overall about a lack of JS on a page, I'm pretty
sure it is very small.
------
codegeek
If it is a static/general website with information and not much user
interaction, I would say it should ideally work without JS.
If it is a web application that has tons of interactivity with a user, it
would be of not much use without JS.
------
perilunar
Only so far as developers abuse their audience with massive tracking and
advertising code.
withoutjs.org could be a really useful directory of:
\- sites that work without JS
\- sites that work partially without JS (and what features are broken/missing)
\- sites that use JS to abuse their audience, and that should only be viewed
with JS disabled
\- advocacy and resources to make sites work better without JS
\- advocacy and resources for developers to reduce their page weight
------
gitgud
It's just another tool to create better interactivity in a page.
Just like CSS is a tool to create prettier pages. And HTML is an tool to
create layouts and links.
I do think JS should be treated like a permission though. Just like asking for
camera access... but apparently the JS sandbox is completely isolated so
that's not at all necessary...

I would look at offering creative things developers can do without need for
JavaScript.
* interactions using CSS
* accessibility
* improved content
* improved html

Q:
Why does applying `inline-block` force dimensions onto my span element?
So I have this <span> element, and I wanted to apply a webkit-transform to it. Unfortunately, I have to specify the display attribute to be inline-block in order for this to work.
span {
display: inline-block;
}
But once I apply this attribute, the entire span shifts.
You'll note that before I set it, the <span> element has it's dimensions automatically calculated:
But once I do set the property, the dimensions are computed, and they are slightly different from what is automatically calculated previously:
Why does this happen? Is there a way I can apply inline-block without the <span> changing dimensions at all? I can't tell if there's padding/margins or whatever being applied but it definitely is moving
A:
Normally changing an element from inline to inline-block will not automatically change its size, even though the computed width and height change from auto to numbers.
One thing that's different for inline-block elements is that their margins and paddings in all directions are respected, while inline elements only have horizontal margins and paddings. So if you set vertical margins/paddings on the span, that would explain why it is moving after being changed into inline-block.
Otherwise, it's hard to know the answer without seeing the actual page.

[Dynamics of changes of the blood biochemical indices in patients with obturation jaundice caused by choledocholithiasis, effect of plasmapheresis].
In choledocholithiasis the obturation jaundice and its complication hepatic insufficiency are accompanied by accumulation of significant quantity of water-soluble and protein-associated toxins in the blood. Application of plasmapheresis promotes the patients state improvement and intoxication severity reduction. The levels in the blood lowering of bilirubin, the average-mass peptides concentration, activity of transaminases, alkaline phosphatase were noted. |

Pier pressure
ANOTHER one-off home that beggars belief is the Pier House in Tighnabruaich, which at first glance looks as if the pier actually extends from the house.
However, turns out the pier and projecting store with doors onto it, are owned and maintained by the council and while the pier can be accessed externally, the store supports the most amazing – and huge – paved roof terrace with balustrade lighting, an outdoor space belonging to the house that provides panoramic views of the Kyles of Bute.
Internally, this somewhat quirky and charismatic two-storey home has an immense 46ft open-plan living/dining/kitchen/music area and en-suite double bedroom on the upper level, with a study, two bedrooms (one en suite), hall and small entrance vestibule from Shore Road on the lower level. |
Plasmonic Hot Electron Induced Photocurrent Response at MoS2-Metal Junctions.
We investigate the wavelength- and polarization-dependence of photocurrent signals generated at few-layer MoS2-metal junctions through spatially resolved photocurrent measurements. When incident photon energy is above the direct bandgap of few-layer MoS2, the maximum photocurrent response occurs for the light polarization direction parallel to the metal electrode edge, which can be attributed to photovoltaic effects. In contrast, if incident photon energy is below the direct bandgap of MoS2, the photocurrent response is maximized when the incident light is polarized in the direction perpendicular to the electrode edge, indicating different photocurrent generation mechanisms. Further studies show that this polarized photocurrent response can be interpreted in terms of the polarized absorption of light by the plasmonic metal electrode, its conversion into hot electron-hole pairs, and subsequent injection into MoS2. These fundamental studies shed light on the knowledge of photocurrent generation mechanisms in metal-semiconductor junctions, opening the door for engineering future two-dimensional materials based optoelectronics through surface plasmon resonances. |
E-selectin expression and function in a unique placental trophoblast population at the fetal-maternal interface: regulation by a trophoblast-restricted transcriptional mechanism conserved between humans and mice.
Trophoblast are the earliest differentiated cells to emerge during mammalian ontogeny. Proper differentiation and maturation of trophoblast contributes to the fetal-maternal vascular interface of the mature placenta and is required for all subsequent stages of embryogenesis. Although lineage commitment and early differentiation of trophoblast have been investigated experimentally, molecular markers and regulatory mechanisms operating later in trophoblast development remain uncertain. We now report that E-selectin is expressed in a unique pattern in secondary trophoblast giant cells, trophoblast lining the central artery, and a subpopulation of labyrinthine trophoblast all located at the fetal-maternal interface of the murine placenta. These cells line vascular channels but express a unique profile of gene products not displayed by vascular endothelium. Placentae lacking E-selectin show increased trophoblast glycogen cells and fewer labyrinthine neutrophils compared with normal placentae, suggesting that recognition of E-selectin on trophoblast by counter-receptors on other cells contributes to placental development. Novel, distant first exons direct E-selectin expression in both murine and human placentae, suggesting that evolutionarily conserved and lineage-restricted transcriptional mechanisms regulate expression in homologous trophoblast populations in both species. These results define, at molecular and anatomic levels, a unique population of trophoblast located at the physiologically critical fetal-maternal vascular interface in mice. We also present initial functional characterization of E-selectin in placenta. These results support the general hypothesis that endothelial-leukocyte adhesion molecules performing specialized functions in adults may also function in development of human and murine hemochorial placentae. |
The past few weeks are much different than Brookwood wide receiver Kyrin Priester could have predicted.
The former Orlando resident committed to Georgia in early April, and just a short time after he had made the move from the Sunshine State to Snellville.
Then, after being a member of a UGA signing class that appeared to be filling up quickly, Priester fell out of contact with the Georgia staff for a time, and it allowed a couple of other teams to creep into the picture.
"Right now, two schools showing me a lot of love are Auburn and South Carolina," said Priester. "I haven't really talked with them about offers and all, but both schools have been contacting me a lot and trying to get me on campus really soon."
Despite the attention he has received from the Gamecocks and Tigers, the Georgia staff has reestablished contact with the three star receiver, and he is still committed to the Bulldogs.
"I'm still committed and everything is cool there," he said. "I've been talking with Coach (Bryan) McClendon and Coach (Tony) Ball like every other day lately. We've been in constant contact so that has been cool. They told me that it just got really busy during the evaluation period and that we just missed each other a few times."
After moving to the Peach State, and going through a massive life change, Priester has since had a chance to reflect upon his commitment to UGA.
Now that he has had a chance to look back on the event, the new Brookwood standout realizes that there is still some uncertainty about where he would like to play football at the next level.
"Right now, I think that when I committed to Georgia, it was an emotional decision," said Priester. "Not that it was a bad thing or I'm not committed. I'm just saying that it was my first experience with a big campus and all, and I got caught up in it. Right now I'm still committed, but I want to see some other schools and take some visits to see what is out there."
Auburn and South Carolina are two of the main destinations that Priester plans to visit very soon.
"I definitely want to get over to Auburn and see what it is about," said Priester. "My boy Ryan Green visited there and said it was great, so I want to go check it out. I want to check out South Carolina too and see what it is like there."
Going through a move, the recruiting process, and getting acclimated to a new football program can be overwhelming for some, but for Priester, meshing with the Bronco's program turned out to be the easiest part in his first and final spring practice with Coach Mark Crews' squad.
"My first spring went great. It was really good," he said. "My quarterback and I weren't on the same page all the time, but that will come. I made a lot of plays though and I feel like I'll have a chance to make plays this season too. It was a really good spring for me. I'm definitely looking forward to the season."
With spring ball behind him and a chance to focus on his recruitment for the summer, where do the Bulldogs stand with Priester at this time?
"I'm committed right now," he said. "If I had to say how solid, from one to ten, I would say a six right now." |
Q:
pleat vs crease
What is the difference between words pleat and crease in the meaning of a fold in a piece of cloth?
A:
A pleat (left photo) involves the cloth folded back on itself, accordion style. It's one of the ways to make a garment wider or narrower in parts, rather than just being a cylinder. For example flaring a skirt, or bringing in the waist of pants.
A crease (right photo) is a line on fabric that might have been ironed in, or might just be a wrinkle from how it's been worn or stored.
There are also creases on your hands, around your eyes, and in other non-clothing items, so it might be used for metaphorical effect.

MAP-Seq
MAPseq or Multiplexed Analysis of Projections by Sequencing is a RNA-Seq based method for high-throughput mapping of neuronal projections. It was developed by Anthony M. Zador and his team at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory and published in Neuron, a Cell Press magazine.
The method works by uniquely labeling neurons in a source region by injecting a viral library encoding a diverse collection of RNA sequences ("barcodes"). The barcode mRNA is expressed at high levels and transported into the axon terminals at distal target projection regions. Following this, the cells from source and putative target regions of interest are harvested, and their RNA is extracted and sequenced. By matching the presence of the unique "barcode" in the source and target tissue, one can map the projections of neuron in a one-to-many fashion.

Q:
What are the :class Attributes in Laravel Spark/Vue.js
In Laravel spark, a <div/> enclosing a rendered form element might look like this
<div class="form-group" :class="{'has-error': form.errors.has('name')}">
</div>
That is -- is has a :class attribute. What is this? I get the intent/behavior -- if the form.errors.hash('name') call returns true (with form being a SparkForm set on the enclosing component) then the div will have an has-error class. However, what makes :class work? My first assumption was it's a Vue.js thing, but if I read the Vue docs on class and style bindings, it (seems like?) Vue.js expects an attribute named v-bind:class
<div class="form-group" v-bind:class="{'has-error': form.errors.has('name')}">
</div>
So what makes :class work? Is this a Vue.js provided short cut? (if so, is it documented somewhere?).
Is this some patented Laravel syntactic sugar to make writing templates a bit less verbose? If so, where's this implemented?
Is it some third thing?
A:
So what makes :class work? Is this a Vue.js provided short cut? (if
so, is it documented somewhere?).
Yes , Its a Vuejs Shorthand
document: https://vuejs.org/v2/guide/syntax.html#Shorthands
The v- prefix serves as a visual cue for identifying Vue-specific
attributes in your templates. This is useful when you are using Vue.js
to apply dynamic behavior to some existing markup, but can feel
verbose for some frequently used directives. At the same time, the
need for the v- prefix becomes less important when you are building an
SPA where Vue.js manages every template. Therefore, Vue.js provides
special shorthands for two of the most often used directives, v-bind
and v-on:
there is no diffrence between
:class="{'has-error': form.errors.has('name')}
and
v-bind:class="{'has-error': form.errors.has('name')}

Now that Karl Urban has confirmed that he’ll be playing Judge Dredd, and with filming on the 3D reboot scheduled to start this Fall, we can expect more casting news and information about the movie to be released in the next few months. However, thanks to an anonymous email, it would appear that CBM has gotten it’s hands on an even bigger scoop, as we’ve been sent what appears to be Alex Garland’s script forInterestingly, the title on the first page is “Peach Trees” which could perhaps be a code name in a similar style to howis being referred to as “Frostbite”.Before you cry “FAKE” though, I’ve read a good chunk of the script today and both the layout and story are a lot better than your average piece of fan fiction. (although to be fair, many of you regular CBM contributors post stories that are easily better than a lot of what Hollywood produces!) The script also appears to have been scanned rather than just typed up and posted online, while we were assured that is in fact genuine. Also, a fair bit of what I’ve so far read does corroborate what Urban has said about the tone and story.Regardless of the quality though, there is of course no way to know whether it’s the real deal which is why it’s up to you guys to decide! Just use the “Like” or “Dislike” buttons below to confirm or debunk this news! |

Orange Blossom honey from Doan Honey Farms in Spencerport, NY gives further depth to the sweetness, and organic crystallized ginger provides a bit of spice and a delightful texture. |
[Physiology, biomedicine, medicine].
The physiology throughout centuries was considered as the basic fundamental science in medicine. Rapid development of molecular biology, genetics and of some other natural sciences in 2nd half XX demanded century not only the answer to a question on the sciences defining the base of development of medicine, but also key problems of its progress. The biomedicine is formed, its methods are discussed, is frequent in system of natural sciences, parities with physiology. The special attention is given unconditional necessity of finding-out of molecular mechanisms of functions, targets of action of physiologically active substances and obligatory correlation of data of modeling with the same processes in conditions in vivo in whole body. The role of various sciences in the decision of fundamental problems of medicine, a place and role of physiology in modern medicine is shown. |

Bleeding Cool has learned that the planned Batman "event" from DC Comics kicking off in August, with Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo as showrunners, will be heavy on the Metal.
The working title for now (but I think it's a good one), Metal will see someone collecting very special items of metal for some reason or other.
Dr Fate's helmet? Etrigan's bracelets? Wonder Woman's tiara? The Golden Age Flash's helmet? Who knows?
Well, Scott Snyder does. I bet you can think of a few.
Come August, someone will get to have them all. And hey, maybe that metallic foil that DC Comics has been stockpiling may come in handy for a cover? |

Dusan Makavejev's third feature is a interesting, weird, yet somewhat captivating collage which is essentially a documentary about the first Serbian talkie, which is a rather laughable melodrama. Makavejev uses footage from the actual film, interviews with the people behind the film, and stock footage to tell this bizarre tale. It's essentially a probing study of juxtaposition, as he creates a film as much about the state of Yugoslavia's past and present, as it is about the first Serbian talkie and it's stars. It's an interesting piece fo'sho, but It just didn't grab my attention the way I was hoping it would. That is, outside the sequences revolving around the star of the film, Acrobat Aleksic. These segments about this man are incredibly entertaining. Aleksic has such a presence and he's such a bizarrely captivating individual that you can't help but have a smile on your face whenever he is on screen. All in all it's a rather typical Makavejev type film in all it's strange glory. |

Q:
lvm+ext3 vs ext3 recovery
I would like to hear from people who have personal experience recovering crashed systems or data from crashed drives using lvm+ext3 and ext3. Which option is harder to recover from backup or to extract missing data?
A:
When it comes to recovering data from a hosed disk or system, straight ext3 will be slightly easier than LVM+ext3, simply because it adds a bit of additional complexity and your recovery tools need to be LVM aware.
However, LVM gives you significantly increased flexibility and is nearly always justified in my opinion. It can also make backups a lot easier and more reliable (LVM snapshots are really handy for backup purposes).
Having dealt with both, I didn't think the slight added difficulty of LVM was enough to rule it out, and when you factor in the advantages of LVM. . . well, I generally won't build a box without LVM unless I have a really good reason.

Readers… some things in life just aren’t fair. Case in point: some obnoxiously wealthy guy in Australia has a Batcave and you don’t.
Australian architectural firm Molecule recently posted about a special undertaking it completed not long ago. The firm’s client, who was not named in the post, asked it to reproduce Bruce Wayne’s underground garage from The Dark Knight series under his own home, while ensuring that the work avoided disturbing his home’s “heritage quality and evident beauty.”
When you’re done rolling your eyes, do yourself a favor and check out the pictures below.
Here’s a picture of what he wanted — the underground garage from The Dark Knight:
And here’s what he got:
It’s beyond unlikely that he’ll make his money back when he goes to sell the place, but let’s be honest — it was worth it. Follow the link below in our source section to check out more images on Molecule’s website, including some great construction photos of the project while it was in development. |
About
The City of Surrey and our communities believe in good watershed management, and that everybody has a part to play. If each property owner implements some of the simple steps in this Water Balance Tool to help steward the natural and limited resources that our environment provides us with, our watersheds will regain some of their lost balance and our region will be more resilient to weather and other climatic extremes. In other words, when you do your part to manage average rainfall, our region is better able to manage extreme weather and storm water.
Over time people in this region have settled around, enjoyed and been supported by the majesty of our areas bountiful rivers and bays, and some of the best drinking water anywhere.
As we have developed communities and created jobs, we have altered the watersheds that have supported us by:
Removing the ancient absorptive landscapes and altering streams and wetlands systems that act as hydrological buffers (slow water down)
Replacing them with hard surfaces and diverting natural drainage patterns by building roads and buildings, filling creeks and wetlands and straitening rivers (speed water up).
While nature and our watersheds are incredibly resilient, we are reaching a point where we can no longer continue to upset their balance without impacting what makes them so effective at efficiently managing our water resources and providing us with their FREE green infrastructure services. |

Q:
Why is a class recognized in one part of my project, but not in another?
I'm trying to create a modified public version of a private method that appears in a Controller class in the project I'm working on. The private method returns a List of a custom type, whereas in the public method I want to return a List of int.
So, I copied the existing method from the controller class in the \Controllers folder to a new Utils class that I added beneath the App_Code folder.
It turns out, though, that for the code to compile, I need to add certain "using" clauses; no problem?
For example, in this line of code:
get { return int.Parse(CCRCustomer.GetCustomerNumberFromUsername(User.Identity.Name)); }
..."Identity" is red - unrecognized. I think "User" is supposed to be a custom class of ours; but when I hover over it,
it says, "Module System.Data.Entity ... "
Yet adding System.Data.Entity to the using clauses results in the "Entity" portion of that being colored red as unrecognized.
The next problem is this line:
using (var conn = new EntityConnection(ConnectionString))
...in which case it is now "EntityConnection"s turn to be embarrassed and go red/unrecognized.
The controller class which has the original similar code has this:
using System.Data.EntityClient;
...so I thought maybe that's what I needed; but adding that to my Utils class just rewards me with yet more red - on the "Entity" again.
Why would a referenced class be seen from one part of a project, but not from another?
A:
In a web application project, you don't need to add code files to app_code folder; create a regular "Utils" folder in the project and add to it instead. Code files inside app_code compile to a different assembly which is why references to existing project (such is Entity Framework ) are missing for the code you are placing under app_code.
Edit: To shed more light on this, ASP.NET Mvc by default does not give you a way to add app_code folder. This is because app_code primarily exists for websites in which the code files are compiled dynamically. Web applications are pre-compiled and Mvc comes only as a web application project in Visual Studio. Though as mentioned in the linked SO question, you may workaround this if you really need to.

Esclusiva: Mirabelli e Fassone a Londra, assalto a Morata!
In queste ore sia il direttore sportivo Massimiliano Mirabelli che l’amministratore delegato Marco Fassone sono a Londra per le note questioni societarie e per un colloquio con i dirigenti del fondo Elliot. Ma il blitz è stato programmato anche per vicende di mercato: il Milan ha ormai ceduto Kalinic all’Atletico Madrid, cerca una sistemazione per Bacca (preferirebbe un ritorno al Villarreal), ma non sono escluse altre destinazioni. Occhio, però, alla vera sorpresa di serata: i due dirigenti sono in Inghilterra per incontrare Alvaro Morata e per convincerlo ad accettare il trasferimento in rossonero. L’attaccante ha espresso il gradimento e vorrebbe tornare in Italia. In questo momento lo spagnolo non rientra in uno scambio con Higuain, sviluppi in corso. Il Milan all’assalto di Morata.

The unintended consequences of a male professional ideology for the development of nursing education.
At the turn of this century, early leaders of nursing education in the United States looked at the success of physicians in creating medicine's acceptance as a "profession." Trying to emulate this model, female nurses embraced a culturally and socially defined medical, male-oriented professional ideology that equated being professional with being scientific.

Choosing the best management of uterine and vulvo-vaginal sarcomas depends on careful histologic review of the pathologic specimen. Prognosis and treatment vary greatly depending on specific histology, grade, and tumor stage. The initial approach to sarcomas of the female genital tract, with the occasional exception of vulvo-vaginal rhabdomyosarcoma, is surgery. Adjuvant radiation decreases local recurrence rates for uterine sarcomas, but has not been clearly shown to improve overall survival. It is frequently used as adjuvant therapy for resected high-grade or margin-positive vulvo-vaginal sarcomas, and for endometrial stromal sarcomas. Adjuvant chemotherapy has not been demonstrated to improve survival in vulvo-vaginal sarcomas, with the exception of vulvo-vaginal rhabdomyosarcomas, nor has it been demonstrated to improve survival in uterine sarcomas. Chemotherapy may be used for recurrent or persistent disease. The choice of agent depends on the histologic type of sarcoma. |

Q:
Clustered Index Misunderstanding
I've read in couple of articles that clustered index is as the same as table, or if you read using clustered index, you have the whole record.
Some say, clustered index stores the whole records in deepest leaf of index.
It is foggy for me, does clustered index has a copy of data?!!
for sure not, but I don't why people say that.
I read couple of articles but still it is not clear to me. Is clustered index is something virtual? Does it use B-Tree structure (like non-clustered index)?
Is there any schematic or model that describes how SQL Server stores/manages clustered index?
A:
some say, cluster index stores the whole records in deepest leaf of index.
Yes this is correct. The leaf pages of the clustered index contain the actual table rows. This is the actual data. There is no other primary copy of it held elsewhere.
The leaf pages also allocate a few bytes to hold the address (file and page) of the next and previous pages in index key order to form a doubly linked list. Following the index in key order may or may not be the same as following it in physical order depending on the level of fragmentation.
The rows on the individual leaf pages may not be written physically exactly in index key order but the slot array on the page, with pointers to the rows it contains, is ordered by key order.
Does it use B-Tree structure (like non-clustered index)?
As long as the table doesn't fit on a single page then there will be one or more levels of the B-tree above the leaf. These higher levels contain index key values and pointers to pages in the level below to allow efficiently looking up key values. This is exactly the same principle used in nonclustered indexes too.
The leaf level pages of a clustered index are categorised as data pages and non-leaf pages as index pages. But the data pages are still part of the index.

Q:
How to write files to a docker container's temporary directory?
I am trying to write content(backup files) into a temporary directory inside a running Docker container.
Is there a way to create a temporary directory inside the container and write content to it?
A:
You can bind this folder to the docker container directly using volumes.
As you do not want them changed I assume you could mount them as a read-only volume.
In that case you do not have to copy them around as you will have them accessible already in the container :)

Q:
Create a single jar that will contain compiled classes and javadoc without Maven
When I build a jar with Eclipse, sometime I'd like to include source or JavaDoc with the .class files in a single .jar file. I found how to do that with Maven. Is it possible to do it just using Eclipse?
TIA,
A:
You can import a maven project into Eclipse. That's one way. Just import your maven project and perform the maven steps you do to create you jar file.
You can also export a Java project, which includes the sources and all that you mentioned using Eclipse under the File -> Export option. You will see a wizard that allows you to choose the target (war, jar, ear, ...) and the resources that should be included.

Unisexual flower, spikelet, and inflorescence development in monoecious/dioecious Bouteloua dimorpha (Poaceae, Chloridoideae).
Unisexual flowers have evolved repeatedly in the angiosperms. In Poaceae, multiple transitions from bisexual to unisexual flowers are hypothesized. There appear to be at least three distinct developmental mechanisms for unisexual flower formation as found in members of three subfamilies (Ehrhartoideae, Panicoideae, Pharoideae). In this study, unisexual flower development is described for the first time in subfamily Chloridoideae, as exemplified by Bouteloua dimorpha. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and anatomy were used to characterize the development of male (staminate) and female (pistillate) flowers, spikelets, and inflorescences. We found the developmental pathway for staminate flowers in B. dimorpha to be distinct from that described in the other three subfamilies, showing gynoecial arrest occurs at a different stage with possible loss of some cellular contents. However, pistillate flowers of B. dimorpha had some similarity to those described in other unisexual-flowered grasses, with filament and anther differentiation in abortive stamens. Comparing our findings with previous reports, unisexual flowers seem to have evolved independently in the four examined grass subfamilies. This analysis suggests the action of different genetic mechanisms, which are consistent with previous observations that floral unisexuality is a homoplasious condition in angiosperms. |

[The Neural Mechanism of Emotional Sweating].
The autonomic nervous system mediates blood pressure, heart rate, and sweat secretion, which are strongly modulated by the limbic system. Moreover, the limbic system plays an important role in generating emotion. Therefore, monitoring autonomic activities, such as palmar sweating, could be useful to evaluate emotional responses. Palmar sweating is otherwise known as emotional sweating, and it's monitored for lie-detection or psychological therapy. The present review will be helpful for neurologists, psychiatrists, and psychologists seeking to understand the neural mechanism of emotional sweating. |
Cellular stress drives pancreatic plasticity.
Controversy has long surrounded research on pancreatic beta cell regeneration. Some groups have used nonphysiological experimental methodologies to build support for the existence of pancreatic progenitor cells within the adult pancreas that constantly replenish the beta cell pool; others argue strongly against this mode of regeneration. Recent research has reinvigorated enthusiasm for the harnessing of pancreatic plasticity for therapeutic application--for example, the transdifferentiation of human pancreatic exocrine cells into insulin-secreting beta-like cells in vitro; the conversion of mouse pancreatic acinar cells to beta-like cells in vivo via cytokine treatment; and the potential redifferentiation of dedifferentiated mouse beta cells in vivo. Here, we highlight key findings in this provocative field and provide a perspective on possible exploitation of human pancreatic plasticity for therapeutic beta cell regeneration. |
Knowledge concerning audience consumption of media content allows content providers to tailor content to a specific audience and enables advertisers to target the specific audience likely to view a particular type of media content. Audience measurement information, such as media content ratings and/or other metering information, is typically generated by collecting tuning records and/or other exposure information from a group of statistically selected households. In many situations, a statistically selected household is provided a data logging and processing unit, referred to herein as a “home unit,” which measures media content exposure for the household.
In a typical procedure for installing the home unit in a particular household, the household is first selected for recruitment and invited to participate in an audience measurement panel. If the household agrees to participate, a representative of a media measurement entity, such as an interviewer, visits the household to explain the requirements for participating in the audience measurement panel. If the household agrees to these requirements, an agreement is executed between the panel members of the household and the media measurement entity. The media measurement entity then arranges to install the home unit in the household, possibly through a subsequent visit by a field technician. Upon termination of the household's participation in the panel, a representative of the media measurement entity, such as another field technician, returns to remove the meter from the household.
Many modern media devices, such as set-top boxes, personal computers, etc., employ one or more media handlers (e.g., such as Microsoft Corporation's Windows Media Player, RealNetworks's RealPlayer, etc.) to process media content into a form suitable for presentation by an output device. Additionally, many modern media devices also include digital rights management technology to enable a device user to access protected media content. In particular, a conventional digital rights management client is capable of processing rules included in a license agreement associated with the protected content to determine whether a media handler is allowed to access and present the protected content. |

Either you don't have more than one line in the string you're looking at (probably), or else you aren't using the correct modifier(s) on your pattern (possibly).
There are many ways to get multiline data into a string. If you want it to happen automatically while reading input, you'll want to set $/ (probably to '' for paragraphs or undef for the whole file) to allow you to read more than one line at a time.
Read the perlre manpage to help you decide which of /s and /m (or both) you might want to use: /s allows dot to include newline, and /m allows caret and dollar to match next to a newline, not just at the end of the string. You do need to make sure that you've actually got a multiline string in there.
For example, this program detects duplicate words, even when they span line breaks (but not paragraph ones). For this example, we don't need /s because we aren't using dot in a regular expression that we want to cross line boundaries. Neither do we need /m because we aren't wanting caret or dollar to match at any point inside the record next to newlines. But it's imperative that $/ be set to something other than the default, or else we won't actually ever have a multiline record read in. |
FliS modulates FlgM activity by acting as a non-canonical chaperone to control late flagellar gene expression, motility and biofilm formation in Yersinia pseudotuberculosis.
The FlgM-FliA regulatory circuit plays a central role in coordinating bacterial flagellar assembly. In this study, we identified multiple novel binding partners of FlgM using bacterial two-hybrid screening. Among these binding partners, FliS, the secretion chaperone of the filament protein FliC, was identified to compete with FliA for the binding of FlgM. We further showed that by binding to FlgM, FliS protects it from secretion and degradation, thus maintaining an intracellular pool of FlgM reserved as the FliS-FlgM complex. Consequently, we found that the flagellar late-class promoter activities are significantly increased in the fliS deletion mutant. The fliS mutant is weakly motile and shows significantly increased biofilm formation on biotic surface. Based on the results obtained, we established for the first time the regulatory role of the flagellin chaperone FliS to fine-tune late flagellar assembly by modulating FlgM activity. |

In silico investigation of the prion protein glycosylation profiles in relation to scrapie disease resistance in domestic sheep (Ovis aries).
The prion protein is a membrane-bound glycoprotein which consists mainly α-helix structure. In contrast, the infectious prion protein shows the beta-sheet structure. The prion-associated diseases are all lethal neurodegenerative abnormalities, called transmissible spongiform encephalopathies. Scrapie is the most common type of these illnesses affecting sheep, goats, and moufflon. The VRQ, AHQ, ARR and N146S polymorphisms in the sheep prion gene have been found to be associated with resistance to scrapie disease. So far, the relationship of polymorphisms to three-dimensional protein structures, post-translational modifications, and scrapie resistance has not been studied. In this study, the potential N- and O-glycosylation positions of sheep prion protein polymorphisms were analyzed, the secondary and three-dimensional protein structure models were predicted, three-dimensional glycoprotein models were constructed and the role of glycosylation positions in protein interactions was investigated. Here, we found that protein secondary and three-dimensional structures vary among polymorphisms. Moreover, we found wild-type prion and all polymorphic variants show N-glycosylation at Asn184 and Asn200 positions, while O-glycosylation profiles are variant-specific. We also found that structural changes among prion polymorphisms leads to the formation of variant spesific O-glycosylation profiles and these positions are associated with protein interactions. Based on these findings, we suggest that O-glycosylation may be effective on resistance/susceptibility of sheep prion polymorphisms to scrapie disease. |
Given such overwhelming evidence of success, some could be tempted to subscribe to the much derided thesis of Amy Chua and Jed Rubenfeld’s new provocative book, The Triple Package, which congratulates Indian Americans as well as a few other ethnicities for having the right cultural attributes to flourish in the U.S. (Last month in TIME’s print publication, Indian-American journalist Suketu Mehta wrote the definitive takedown of the Chua and Rubenfeld “cultural” argument, which he likened to a new form of American racism.) Nadella’s journey to Microsoft’s top post moved along the same path furrowed by thousands of other Indians — a hypercompetitive college education in India (though his university was only a midranking one), followed by graduate studies in the U.S. and a berth in Silicon Valley. But the application, the ingenuity, the business savvy and the drive that saw him excel were all his own.
His ascension as Microsoft CEO is making headlines in India, where the country’s NRIs (nonresident Indians) are often held up as national heroes. For decades, the successes of pioneering, entrepreneurial Indians abroad were seen in contrast to the poverty, stagnation and political sclerosis of their country of origin. But that aura of respect and celebrity is dimming: see the invective hurled at U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara — accused of being an Indian “Uncle Tom” — for his role in the controversial case against Indian deputy consul Devyani Khobragade last year.
It’s hard to imagine Nadella drawing that sort of ire, but his triumph in the U.S. comes at a moment when NRIs are flocking back to India, drawn by opportunities in their rapidly changing homeland. The rise of India’s economy has created a new domestic confidence and swagger. Hyderabad, where Nadella was born, is now one of Asia’s main tech capitals, key to Microsoft’s global plans. Perhaps the next Satya Nadella may not even need to be a hyphenated Indian American. |

The controversial Grimhøj mosque in Aarhus is at the centre of yet more controversy as a new video shows a visiting Copenhagen advocating the "educational" beating of children.
A new clip from a hidden camera used for the TV2 documentary ‘Mosques behind the veil' (Moskeerne bag sløret) shows an imam at the controversial Grimhøj Mosque in Aarhus suggesting appropriate ways to physically punish children who do not pray.
The clip shows an imam telling the female-only audience that children ten and older who refuse to pray should be beaten in an "educational" way.
“Fear Allah, brothers and sisters, teach your children to pray. It is mandatory for you to teach them to pray from the age of seven years old. And even to beat them if they do not pray when they are ten years old,” the visiting Imam from Copenhagen is heard saying in video.
“You hit them as education and to learn,” he continued.
The recording continues to show a member of the female audience query the imam as to how a child should be beaten if they fail to pray.
“It is not allowed to punch them, knock them into a wall or break their bones. It is also not allowed to take a knife to them and cut them. You hit them as education and learning. Not as violence,” the imam replies.
Garbi Schmidt, a professor of Intercultural Studies at Roskilde University, said that the comments about hitting children legitimize the use of violence within the Islamic community and that more should be done by individuals to protest against such teachings.
“The religious scholars who would want to be role models within the community should stand up and say this is an unacceptable interpretation of our religion,” Schmidt told TV2.
The Grimhøj Mosque received a transcript of the recordings and responded by stating that the video only gives a small insight into the teachings of the mosque and does not reflect the whole picture.
“We cannot believe everything that comes from you. The recording only shows a few seconds rather than hours. Therefore, it is not certain that you did not just collect things to cheat people,” the mosque's chairman, Oussama El-Saadi, told TV2.
Child psychologist Kuno Sørensen from Save the Children Denmark (Red Barnet) believes the mosque's teachings could be criminal.
“It is very problematic. In this way, as it is said here, it is supporting something that is a criminal act, an act that is harmful to children,” Sørensen told TV2. |
Immunocytochemical localization of basic fibroblast growth factor in carcinomas and inflammatory lesions of the human digestive tract.
Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) is one of the important angiogenic peptides. Clarification of its localization in human cancer and inflammatory diseases is important for the study of angiogenesis. Sliced human gastrointestinal carcinomas and inflammatory lesions were frozen after fixation. Immunocytochemical localization of bFGF was studied at the light and electron microscopic levels. In gastric carcinoma of the diffuse type, bFGF was mainly observed in some of the endothelial cells of the microvasculature and in fibroblasts. Gastric carcinoma of the intestinal type and colonic carcinoma showed the immunoreactivity in fibroblasts, vascular endothelial cells, and in the extracellular matrix (ECM). Carcinoma cells were occasionally positive. In inflammatory lesions, bFGF was most prominent in the ECM. Areas of deposition of bFGF in the ECM partly corresponded to areas of increased immunoreactivity for heparan sulphate proteoglycan. Immunoelectron microscopically, bFGF was localized in the cytosol of fibroblasts and cancer cells but no localization was observed in the lumen of rough endoplasmic reticulum or perinuclear space in any of the cells observed. bFGF was also localized along the luminal surface of vascular endothelial cells, in nuclei of fibroblasts, vascular endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and some cancer cells, and in the ECM. Extensive localization of bFGF in the ECM was related to the areas of increased vascular permeability and active angiogenesis. In cancer tissues, the distribution pattern of bFGF supports a paracrine mechanism among mesenchymal cells rather than a direct paracrine mechanism on vascular cells from carcinoma cells. Nuclear localization of bFGF may support its activity as a transcriptional factor. |

Morphofunctional characteristics of the immune system in CBA and C57Bl/6g mice.
We studied peculiarities of morphofunctional organization of the immune system in C57Bl/6g and CBA mice differing by their susceptibility to various types of infectious agents. The revealed differences in the structure of lymphoid organs, T lymphocyte subpopulation ratio and their differentiation into Th1/Th2 cells after mitogen stimulation drove us to a conclusion on genetically determined regularities in the development of the immune response in these animal strains. |
Rather than actually try to explain what CBC commentator Don Cherry said about the Toronto Maple Leafs and GM Brian Burke, we'll point you to the video.
As background, the Maple Leafs are a mess and on Friday fired coach Ron Wilson, replacing him with Randy Carlyle. Burke, an American, favors American college players—and more to Cherry's point, but only slightly, does not have any Ontario-born players on the roster.
That, predictably, does not make Cherry happy—citing the success of Ontarian-heavy teams like the Pittsburgh Penguins and Vancouver Canucks, he said during his "Coach's Corner" segment on "Hockey Night in Canada" that the lack of Ontarians on the Maple Leafs is "a crime.'" And he didn't stop there—eventually he accused Burke of trying to get him fired.
Carlyle, for whatever it's worth, was born in Sudbury, Ontario; the team's AHL affiliate, the Toronto Marlies, has eight players from Ontario; and the Maple Leafs themselves have four from Alberta, three from Saskatchewan and one apiece from Quebec, British Columbia and Manitoba. There are eight Americans on the NHL roster. |

The invention lies in the field of electronic component and electronic component manufacture.
For the purpose of automatically testing electronic components, not only the tester unit but also supply devices (xe2x80x9chandlersxe2x80x9d) are required which allow the components to be supplied automatically to the test supports. The test supports are on contactor apparatus (xe2x80x9cHiFixesxe2x80x9d) which are used to produce an electrical connection to the tester unit. The electronic components are transported by means of the supply device in component carriers or chip carriers (xe2x80x9ctest traysxe2x80x9d) which hold the electronic components in a similar manner to a tray. The component carriers ensure that the components are aligned above the contactor apparatus, so that it is possible for clean, correct and perfect contact to be made with the components on the contactor apparatus.
Since, particularly with larger and larger scale integration densities, testing a component is taking longer and longer, this accounts for an increasing proportion of the total manufacturing costs. It is therefore necessary to take measures to reduce the test time and hence to reduce the test costs substantially.
The test costs can firstly be reduced by reducing the test time for the electronic components. However, this would reduce the likelihood of finding a fault, which means that a larger number of faulty electronic components would be delivered to the customer.
Secondly, it is possible to reduce the test time by increasing the number of electronic components tested simultaneously in a tester apparatus. Normally, the parallelism for testing on conventional tester apparatus is fundamentally limited by the number of available tester channels and by the maximum number of test supports available, which is determined by the geometric arrangement of the electronic components.
Increasing the number of tester channels requires a great deal of complexity, and it can normally be altered only by the manufacturer of the tester apparatus. However, the geometry-related number of test supports frequently restricts the number of tester channels used to below that resulting from the parallelism associated with the tester apparatus. Thus, the number of tester channels can normally be increased by modifying the supply device. This is a comparatively simple matter, since only slight modifications are required.
Such a measure is implemented, by way of example, by virtue of the number of contactor apparatus arranged next to one another having been increased either in the x direction or in the y direction. This is possible only within the scope of the geometric dimensions on the component carrier or on the HiFix, however. A further increase in the geometric dimensions would result in high development and manufacturing costs. In addition, if the size of the tester apparatus is unaltered, any impairment of the test performance would be worsened by longer supply lines to the contactor apparatus.
It is accordingly an object of the invention to provide a tester apparatus for testing electronic components, which overcomes the above-mentioned disadvantages of the heretofore-known devices and methods of this general type and which provides for a tester apparatus that affords a simple way of reducing the test time for electronic components.
With the foregoing and other objects in view there is provided, in accordance with the invention, a tester apparatus for electronic components, comprising:
a tester unit;
at least one first contactor apparatus connected to the tester unit and configured for making contact with an electronic component;
a first component carrier for holding a component in a first plane, the first component carrier being positionable by way of a supply device for making contact between the components on the first component carrier and the first contactor apparatus;
a second component carrier for holding a component in a second plane, the second component carrier being positionable by way of the supply device;
at least one second contactor apparatus connected to the tester unit and configured for making contact with the electronic component in the second plane for connecting the electronic component to the tester unit;
wherein the first and second component carriers are disposed with respect to one another such that, when contact is made between the first contactor apparatus and the component on the first component carrier, substantially simultaneous contact is made between the second contactor apparatus and the component on the second component carrier.
In accordance with an added feature of the invention, the first contactor apparatus is one of a plurality of first contactor apparatus disposed adjacent one another for contacting electronic components carried on the first plane.
In other words, the invention provides a tester apparatus for electronic components, having a tester unit and having first contactor apparatus arranged next to one another. The contactor apparatus are provided for the purpose of making contact with the electronic components for connection to the tester unit. A first component carrier is provided, on which the components can be positioned in a first plane. The first component carrier can be positioned by means of a supply device in order to make contact with the components on the first component carrier using the first contactor apparatus. The invention provides a second component carrier, on which the components can be positioned in a second plane. The second component carrier can likewise be positioned by means of the supply device. In addition, second contactor apparatus are provided in a second plane in order to make contact with electronic components for connection to the tester unit. The arrangement of the first and second component carriers with respect to one another is such that, when contact is made with the components on the first component carrier using the first contactor apparatus, contact is made with the components on the second component carrier essentially simultaneously using the second contactor apparatus.
By arranging the electronic components to be tested on two component carriers which, when supplied by means of the supply device, are respectively fitted onto the corresponding contactor apparatus essentially simultaneously, it is possible to keep the arrangement of the first and second component carriers in the tester apparatus flexible. In particular, it is possible to arrange the component carriers so as to be offset from one another, i.e. to offset them from one another in terms of the plane wherein the components are arranged. In this way, the components to be tested can be tested simultaneously in a tester apparatus without the size or the external shape of the electronic components restricting the number of components which can be tested simultaneously.
In accordance with an additional feature of the invention, the first and second planes defined by the first and second component carriers are arranged above one another. That is, provision is made for the first and second planes for the first and second component carriers to be arranged above one another. Since, in conventional tester apparatus, the size of the HiFixes with the contactor apparatus is normally limited in the x-direction and in the y-direction, provision can now be made for the components which are to be tested to be arranged above one another, with contact being made therewith simultaneously when they are fitted onto the respective contactor apparatus. To this end, in particular, first and second contactor apparatus are provided which are preferably likewise arranged above one another.
Provision can also be made for the first and second contactor apparatus to have a respective contact plate on which there are contacts in order to make contact with the components on the first and second component carriers. The contact plate for the first contactor apparatus and the contact plate for the second contactor apparatus are arranged essentially above one another. In this way, the contact plates for the contactor apparatus can be arranged in a space-saving manner with respect to one another, so that the latter can also be incorporated in conventional tester apparatus.
In accordance with a concomitant feature of the invention, essentially all of the first contactor apparatus and all of the second contactor apparatus are connected to the tester unit for testing each of the respective components connected thereto.
Other features which are considered as characteristic for the invention are set forth in the appended claims.
Although the invention is illustrated and described herein as embodied in a tester apparatus for electronic components, it is nevertheless not intended to be limited to the details shown, since various modifications and structural changes may be made therein without departing from the spirit of the invention and within the scope and range of equivalents of the claims.
The construction and method of operation of the invention, however, together with additional objects and advantages thereof will be best understood from the following description of specific embodiments when read in connection with the accompanying drawing. |
R loops: from transcription byproducts to threats to genome stability.
Abstract
RNA:DNA hybrid structures known as R loops were thought to be rare byproducts of transcription. In the last decade, however, accumulating evidence has pointed to a new view in which R loops form more frequently, impacting transcription and threatening genome integrity as a source of chromosome fragility and a potential cause of disease. Not surprisingly, cells have evolved mechanisms to prevent cotranscriptional R loop formation. Here we discuss the factors and cellular processes that control R loop formation and the mechanisms by which R loops may influence gene expression and the integrity of the genome. |

Just Kidding, but this is about Great Britain and really folks, anyone can read it. Just an eye stopper for the English and their allies.WEll I just spent about two hours or so posting five newspaper clippings from old English newpapers regrding the legality of shrooms. Inthe Great Britain pages of my site I have Lord Diplock of the House of Lords who ruled that it was legal to grow shrooms, and then there are two rulings regarding possession. One by Judge Peregrine Bloomfield and the other by a Marlboroughs street Magistate.
Then there are two articles of shroom use in Wales.
I will say I am shcoked byut he stupidity of the English journalists, if you can call them that who wrote the article from Wales on the hippie festival..
Anyway here are the two URLs.

And here is the very first reported psilocybine intoxication from the liberty cap. This also took place in England.
I have heard Brits have funny street names, must account for all the confusion there. James Borneo of British MI5 Intelligence will wuickly straighten out any problems you might have getting around there, after all, it is his majesty's secret service. There have got to be mushrooms growing there, all that must, I feel the English have got two things on us Americans, the women, and the music(Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Cammoflague, Jimi Hendrix, John Coltraine, etc.).

Local culture, institutions and demography shape entrepreneurial ecosystems. Startup companies employ mainly young, highly educated and often immigrant population who were mainly supporters of Remain. How welcoming to foreigners and diversity the UK is in the eyes of these and prospective entrepreneurs will have an impact in the long run; founding team diversity and entrepreneurial confidence drive positively entrepreneurship. The government will need to reassure entrepreneurial hotspots around the UK that their success factors are not sacrificed in the divorce settlement with the EU. The precedent on how the government is making it more difficult for non-EU citizens to settle here is not promising.
Geographical proximity and cross-border connections are very important in high-technology business that is inherently global. Brexit will impose more or less painful immigration bureaucracy where there was previously none. Large companies have routines and staff to deal with border-crossing bureaucracy, but small startups don’t have assets to deal with such hurdles and are in a position suffer the most. Yet, I don’t expect a major impact in the short-term. The UK has very strong domestic entrepreneurial ecosystems and lots of talent that won’t disappear overnight. Over time, however, new barriers to movement of people and their ideas cannot be a good thing for entrepreneurship.
The most important resource for an entrepreneurial firm is talented founders and employees. The UK has grown a considerable talent base over the years. This is largely thanks to its excellent higher education system and the ease of settling in to the country. University graduates are an important source of entrepreneurs. Any points-based immigration system will make it more difficult to attract and retain talent from the continental Europe especially for startups that have little resources to deal with extra bureaucracy. Berlin, a rising continental startup hotspot is already preparing to use Brexit to its advantage.
Early-stage startup companies need local venture funding. The period of increased uncertainty and potentially diminished role for the City in the global financial system can result in less available venture funding for startup companies. The impact may not be immediate because numerous venture funds and their staff are currently firmly established in the UK and in London in particular, but it won’t take years to change if there are better investment opportunities elsewhere. The government can try to compensate by making life otherwise financially easier for startups, but this costs money that has been promised to many other purposes as well.
The intellectual property regime is relatively similar in developed countries so in principle there is probably not going to be massive changes due to Brexit. The difference may come from how companies manage and administer their IPR portfolios in the international arena. In the worst case, the UK companies have to file their patents again, maybe in multiple countries. Again, large companies can deal with the extra workload but for smaller companies it will be yet another headache they could very well live without. |
Q:
XPath: Selecting from a nodeset returned from a function
I'm just starting out with XSLT, so bear with me. I am processing a fairly complex document with a structure similar to the one below. It is divided into two sections, data and meta. For each data/item I need to look up the "actual" class in the corresponding meta/item.
<root>
<data>
<item id="i1">
<h3 id="p2">akkakk</h3>
<p id="p3">osijaoid</p>
<p id="p4">jqidqjwd</p>
<item>
</data>
<meta>
<item ref="i1">
<p ref="p2" class="heading"/>
<p ref="p3" class="heading"/>
<p ref="p4" class="body"/>
</item>
</meta>
</root>
I need to group adjacent p elements in meta on their class attribute. I thought a helper function could make this a bit cleaner:
<xsl:function name="fn:node-groups" as="node()*">
<xsl:param name="parent"/>
<xsl:variable name="nodeRefs" select="root($parent)//meta/item[@ref = $parent/@id]/p"/>
<xsl:for-each-group select="$nodeRefs" group-adjacent="@class">
<group class="{@class}">
<xsl:for-each select="current-group()">
<node ref="{@ref}"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</group>
</xsl:for-each-group>
</xsl:function>
And then use it when processing the data nodes, like so. My problem is that I can not select further from the nodeset returned by the function.
<xsl:template match="//data/item">
<!-- works -->
<xsl:variable name="test1" select="fn:node-groups(.)"/>
<!-- works -->
<xsl:variable name="test2" select="fn:node-groups(.)/*"/>
<!-- does not work -->
<xsl:variable name="test3" select="fn:node-groups(.)/group[@class = 'heading']"/>
</xsl:template>
I can write a star as in test2, and that gives me all node nodes. But anything else just gives me an empty nodeset. Or at least it looks that way, but at this point I really don't know anymore.
A:
I suppose your stylesheet has an xmlns="http://example.com/foo" namespace declaration scope for the function that puts the result elements in the function in that namespace and then obviously fn:node-groups(.)/group will not select them as it selects a group element in no namespace. So make sure your function overrides that namespace with <xsl:for-each-group select="$nodeRefs" group-adjacent="@class" xmlns="">.
Another reason could be that your stylesheet defines xpath-default-namespace.
I also think that your third variable needs to be <xsl:variable name="test3" select="mf:node-groups(.)/node"/> as obviously the node sequence returned by your function already is a sequence of group elements, if you want to filter that sequence then use <xsl:variable name="test3" select="fn:node-groups(.)[@class = 'heading']"/>

Rangers looked exactly as I expected them to last night- flying up and down the ice and making basic defensive mistakes such as leaving the slot open.
You cannot take a team that was playing defensive zone out and switch them to run and gun. They will be eaten alive. |
