Greg Delanty (born 1958) is an Irish poet. An issue of the British magazine, Agenda, was dedicated to him. Early life and education Delanty was born in Cork City, Ireland, and is generally placed in the Irish tradition, though he is also considered a Vermont and US poet appearing in various US anthologies. He lives for most of the year in America, where he is the poet in residence at Saint Michael's College, Vermont. He became an American citizen in 1994, retaining his Irish citizenship. He is a past-president of the Association of Literary Scholars, Critics, and Writers. Irish novelist Colum McCann, who has himself resettled in America, described Delanty as the "poet laureate of the contemporary Irish-in-America". McCann said: "Delanty has catalogued an entire generation and its relationship to exile. He is the laureate of those who have gone". Greg Delanty attended University College Cork (UCC) where he was taught by Sean Lucy and John Montague, and was among a group of notable writers who emerged at the university in that period, including Maurice Riordan, Gregory O'Donoghue, Thomas McCarthy, William Wall, Gerry Murphy, and Seán Dunne. Equally important to him, were the poets who wrote in Irish, in UCC, such as Liam Ó Muirthile, Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill, Louis DePaor and Colm Breathnach. Writing career At UCC Delanty edited the university magazine Quarryman and published his first poems in The Cork Examiner. As an editor of two issues of Quarryman he published poems by poets writing in Irish (without translation) and English, and was the first to do so in Ireland. He also solicited poems from fellow students and poets throughout Ireland and beyond, such as Seamus Heaney, Paul Durcan, Edwin Morgan and David Gascoyne. The entry in The Oxford Companion to Modern Poetry (second edition) on Delanty states that: In 1983, Delanty received the distinguished Patrick Kavanagh Poetry Award (given to an Irish poet who has not previously published a book), and in 1986 his first full-length work, Cast in the Fire (Dolmen Press) appeared. That same year he received the Allan Dowling Poetry Fellowship, judged by Christopher Ricks, the award of $20,000 stipulated that he had to travel to the United States for a brief period. Since 1987, Delanty has been associated with Saint Michael College, Vermont, initially as a teacher and currently as poet-in-residence. It is here that his poems began to explore the themes of exile and family which would dominate his later work. His collection American Wake (Blackstaff, 1995), which envisions a fifth Irish province ‘where all exiles naturally land’, was followed by The Hellbox (Oxford University Press, 1998), whose title alludes to the printing trade to which his father had devoted his life. The Blind Stitch (Carcanet, 2001), extends the geography of Delanty's poems to include India, and was followed by The Ship of Birth (Carcanet Press, 2007), a collection inspired by fatherhood and committed to ‘affirming the sustaining continuity of life’. Collected Poems 1986-2006 was published by Carcanet/Oxford Poets in 2006. Among other entries on Greg Delanty are The Oxford Companion to Irish Literature (Oxford University Press, 1996) and The Encyclopedia of the Irish in America (Notre Dame University Press, 1999)." After Delanty’s Collected Poems 1986-2006 (Carcanet Press, 2006) he has expanded his range both in form and content especially with his latest book of poems The Greek Anthology, Book XVII (Oxford Poets of Carcanet Press, England, 2012), which was released in the U.S. in 2015 as Book Seventeen (LSU Press). In an interview with the Poetry Society that took place when the Carcanet edition was published he was asked about this book, and he used the Greek Anthology form as a way to "conjure old and new ways of looking at our contemporary world". Other poetry collections include The New Citizen Army (Combat Paper Press), which was a book of political poems concerned with war and climate change and the general complicity of our modern lives. The covers of this book were actually made from pulped uniforms of US soldiers and the whole book was designed and produced by US military veterans. The next book Loosestrife (Fomite, Burlington, Vermont, 2011) is a progression from that edition and has many of the same poems in it. Many of the poems in both The New Citizen Army and Loosestrife were actually taken from his previous books of poems. He is the lead poet in the anthology So Little Time: Words and Images for a World in Climate Crisis, (Green Writers Press, Vermont 2014). The book originally was to be set around Delanty's own poems, via a suggestion to the Publisher by the environmentalist Bill McKibben, and Delanty in turn suggested that other poets be asked also, and many of the poets included were invited by him. Bill McKibben in his envoy to So Little Time described him as "The great Vermont poet". A 2006 article in The Sunday Times said that "Greg Delanty's poems are a subtle combination of political activism and private contemplation". His poems are widely anthologized and have appeared in American, Irish, Italian, English, Australian, Japanese and Argentinean anthologies, including the Norton Introduction to Poetry, Field Day Anthology of Irish Writing, American Poets of the New Century, 20th Century Irish Poems, Contemporary Poets of New England and The Penguin Book of Irish Poetry. His Individual poems have been published in such publications as The Atlantic formily The Atlantic Monthly, the New Statesman, The New Republic, American Scholar, The Irish Times, PN Review, and The Times Literary Supplement. Greg Delanty is the Co-Editor with Michael Matto of the critically acclaimed and a best seller on Amazon The Word Exchange: Anglo-Saxon Poems in Translation (Introduced by Seamus Heaney). New York: W.W. Norton, 2010. Some of his other translations include Seán Ó Ríordáin's Selected Poems in Translation and Selected Poems of Kyriakos Charalambides (Cork: Southword Editions, 2005). He has also translated Aristophanes ‘The Knights’ which he retitled ‘The Suits’, and Euripides’ ‘Orestes’, which he wanted to translate to ‘The Family’, but the chance of title occurred during the actually printing of the book so it was too late to alter. Both these classical plays were translated for The Complete Greek Drama Series (Penn Greek Drama Series, 1998) Delanty edited, with Nuala Ni Dhomhnaill, Jumping Off Shadows: Selected Contemporary Irish Poetry (Cork UP, 1995) and, with Robert Welsh, The Selected Poems of Patrick Galvin (Cork UP, 1995). He has read widely in the United States and Europe, including the Library of Congress. Many of his poems have been broadcast on radio and television, from Garrison Kellior The Writer's Almanac to the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) and Radio Teilifis Éireann (Raidió Teilifís Éireann—Irish National TV and Radio Broadcasting). He also has been interviewed extensively. Two interviews worth noting are the Vermont PBS interview with Fran Stoddart in the program ‘Profiles’; and the other interview was with David Hanley in the RTÉ poetry program ‘The Enchanted Way’. The National Library of Ireland has acquired Greg Delanty's papers up to 2010. Awards Greg Delanty has received numerous awards including the Patrick Kavanagh Poetry Award (1983), the Allen Dowling Poetry Fellowship (1986), the Wolfers-O’Neill Award (1996–97), the Austin Clarke Award (1996), National Poetry Competition Prizewinner (Poetry Society of England, 1999) an Arts Council of Ireland Bursary (1998–99), and an award from the Royal Literary Fund (1999). He has been granted a Guggenheim Fellowship for poetry for 2007–2008.

Silicone grease, sometimes called dielectric grease, is a waterproof grease made by combining a silicone oil with a thickener. Most commonly, the silicone oil is polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and the thickener is amorphous fumed silica. Using this formulation, silicone grease is a translucent white viscous paste, with exact properties dependent on the type and proportion of the components. More specialized silicone greases are made from fluorinated silicones or, for low-temperature applications, PDMS containing some phenyl substituents in place of methyl groups. Other thickeners may be used, including stearates and powdered polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE). Greases formulated from silicone oils with silica thickener are sometimes referred to as silicone paste to distinguish them from silicone grease made with silicone oil and a soap thickener. Applications Industrial use Silicone grease is commonly used for lubricating and preserving many types of rubber parts, such as O-rings, without swelling or softening the rubber, but is contraindicated for silicone rubber due to these factors. It functions well as a corrosion inhibitor and lubricant on non-metal-metal contact areas. Silicone grease is soluble in organic solvents such as toluene, xylene, mineral spirits, and chlorinated hydrocarbons. It is insoluble in methanol, ethanol, and water. Thermal grease often consists of a silicone-grease base, along with added thermally conductive fillers. It is used for heat-transfer abilities, rather than friction reduction. Pure silicone grease is widely used by the plumbing industry in faucets and seals, as well as in dental equipment. This is because it is not an ingestion hazard. Electrical utilities use silicone grease to lubricate separable elbows on lines that must endure high temperatures. Silicone greases generally have an operating temperature range of approximately with some high-temperature versions extending this range slightly. Chemical laboratories Silicone grease is widely used as a temporary sealant and a lubricant for interconnecting ground glass joints, as is typically used in laboratory glassware. Although silicones are normally assumed to be chemically inert, several historically significant compounds have resulted from unintended reactions with silicones. The first salts of crown ethers (OSi(CH3)2)n were produced by reactions of organolithium and organopotassium compounds with silicone greases or the serendipitous reaction of stannanetriol with silicone grease to afford a cage-like compound having three Sn−O−Si−O−Sn linkages in the molecule. Lubrication of an apparatus with silicone grease may result in the reaction mixture being contaminated with the grease. The impurity may be carried through purification by chromatography in undesirable amounts. In NMR spectroscopy, the methyl groups in polydimethylsiloxane display 1H and 13C chemical shifts similar to trimethylsilane (TMS), the reference compound for those forms of NMR spectroscopy. As with TMS, the signal is a singlet. In 1H NMR, silicone grease appears at a singlet at δ = 0.07 ppm in CDCl3, 0.09 in CD3CN, 0.29 in C6D6, and −0.06 ppm in (CD3)2SO. In 13C NMR, it appears at δ = 1.19 ppm in CDCl3 and 1.38 ppm in C6D6. Tables of impurities commonly found in NMR spectroscopy have been prepared, and such tables include silicone grease. Consumer products Silicone-based lubricants are often used by consumers in applications where other common consumer lubricants, such as petroleum jelly, would damage certain products, such as latex rubber and gaskets on dry-suits. It can be used to lubricate fountain pen filling mechanisms and threads. Another common use is to lubricate keyboard stabilizer wires to reduce rattle. Electrics Silicone greases are electrically insulating and are often applied to electrical connectors, particularly those containing rubber gaskets, as a means of sealing and protecting the connector. In this context they are often referred to as dielectric grease. A common use of this type is in the high-voltage connection associated with gasoline-engine spark plugs, where grease is applied to the rubber boot of the plug wire to help it slide onto the ceramic insulator of the plug, to seal the rubber boot, and to prevent the rubber's adhesion to the ceramic. Such greases are formulated to withstand the high temperature generally associated with the areas in which spark plugs are located, and can be applied to contacts as well (because the contact pressure is sufficient to penetrate the grease film). Doing so on such high-pressure contact surfaces between different metals has the further advantage of sealing the contact area against electrolytes that might cause rapid deterioration of the metals by galvanic corrosion. Silicone grease can decompose to form an insulating layer at or next to switch contacts that experience arcing, and contamination can cause the contacts to prematurely fail. SCUBA Diving Silcone greases, of formulas qualified for such use, are often used for lubrication in the SCUBA industry. e.g. For lubricating components of gas pressure regulation and delivery equipment such as regulators, 'O' rings and couplings. Divers use high PO2 'enriched' gas mixes containing more than the usual ~21% of Oxygen present in air as one of the ways to reduce the risk of decompression sickness, "the bends", on certain types of dive. Also, oxygen equipment between 60% and 100% is used to 'accelerate' decompression obligations. Silicone grease is used due to the risk that some non-silicone greases can spontaneously combust in the presence of high concentrations of oxygen. References Silicones Greases

The energy content of biofuel is the chemical energy contained in a given biofuel, measured per unit mass of that fuel, as specific energy, or per unit of volume of the fuel, as energy density. A biofuel is a fuel produced from recently living organisms. Biofuels include bioethanol, an alcohol made by fermentation—often used as a gasoline additive, and biodiesel, which is usually used as a diesel additive. Specific energy is energy per unit mass, which is used to describe the chemical energy content of a fuel, expressed in SI units as joule per kilogram (J/kg) or equivalent units. Energy density is the amount of chemical energy per unit volume of the fuel, expressed in SI units as joule per litre (J/L) or equivalent units. Energy and CO2 output of common biofuels The table below includes entries for popular substances already used for their energy, or being discussed for such use. The second column shows specific energy, the energy content in megajoules per unit of mass in kilograms, useful in understanding the energy that can be extracted from the fuel. The third column in the table lists energy density, the energy content per liter of volume, which is useful for understanding the space needed for storing the fuel. The final two columns deal with the carbon footprint of the fuel. The fourth column contains the proportion of CO2 released when the fuel is converted for energy, with respect to its starting mass, and the fifth column lists the energy produced per kilogram of CO2 produced. As a guideline, a higher number in this column is better for the environment. But these numbers do not account for other green house gases released during burning, production, storage, or shipping. For example, methane may have hidden environmental costs that are not reflected in the table.

Effective Training In order to maximize the benefits of instruction, some key points such as management training, identifying your audience, and up to date use of technology can be used to fully profit the managers as well as the members of the organization. Training for management must be done on a regular basis gives an advantage to any institution since they can provide ongoing feedback to personnel in order to ensure the good function of the different components of an association. Leadership instruction as well as communication skills education are some examples of management training. Identifying your audience, in this case, the format of the organization such as family business, small business, event, charity group, or simply meetings enables you to apply the required techniques to get the most out of your training and preparation sessions. As technology grows, its important to keep your preparation up-to-date by using all means necessary. The Internet, computers as well as E-learning provide new insights to effective training and can be adapted to fit different needs for different companies. It's also very important to get constant feedback from the members as well as having assessment strategies to ensure that the training that is being provided is useful and productive to not waste time and resources. In the medical field, recent research draws on available evidence from general educational literature, as well as specific literature on communication skills training (CST). These studies "delineate how educational interventions should be organized in order to enhance clinicians’ communication skills learning and practice. CST interventions need to be learner- and practice-centered and include core conceptual knowledge and experiential opportunities for practice, reflection, feedback, and rehearsal".

An overwrap or wrap is a method of sealing a contained product, typically as part of retail packaging. It is often made of plastic film (sometimes called polywrapping) or paper. The wrap is applied over the bare product or can be applied over another form of packaging. It is typically used to protect products, but can be used decoratively. Functions An overwrap can be used for several purposes or functions: Combine two or more smaller packages into a larger multi-pack Keep a package or item clean Help prevent package pilferage or premature opening of the package Help provide a tamper indicating seal Help keep insects out of a package Obscure a package for distribution, sale, or gifting Help provide an authentication seal Help provide grease resistance or water resistance Keep an item, such as magazines, clean and intact during shipment; provide an address label that does not damage the item Provide graphics, advertising, warnings, instructions, bar codes, etc. Types of overwraps Shrink wrap Shrink wrap is a material made up of polymer plastic film. When heat is applied it shrinks tightly over whatever it is covering. Heat can be applied with a hand held heat gun (electric or gas) or the product and film can pass through a heat tunnel. Most shrink films are polyethylene. Film wrap Plastic films, usually polyethylene or polypropylene, can be wrapped around an item and attached with adhesive, PSA tape, or heat seals. Sometimes the film is in the form of a plastic bag which is sealed around the item. Decorative wrap Wraps can be either exclusively for visual appeal (decoration) or be protective in nature but encompass a decorative element such as a printed design. Paper wrap Kraft paper and a variety of other papers can be used to overwrap items in a package or to overwrap a package. Some papers provide abrasion protection for packaged items. Sealing can be by adhesive, tapes, heat seals, etc. Some papers also have grease resistance or are saturated with volatile corrosion inhibitors, etc. See also Shrink wrap Plastic wrap Plastic bag References Soroka, W, "Fundamentals of Packaging Technology", IoPP, 2002, Yam, K.

An emasculator is a tool used in the castration of livestock. Its function is to simultaneously crush and cut the spermatic cord, preventing hemorrhaging while still detaching the testis from the animal. The blade is always on the side of the emasculator with the nut that holds the blades in place, and should always be placed adjacent to the testis ("nut against nut") so that the crushing clamp occludes the spermatic artery, preventing life-threatening blood loss. The ratchet (visible on the handle) allows the emasculator to be locked in the "closed" position for the 2–3 minutes required for primary hemostasis to occur. The ends of the "clamp" are rounded and guarded to allow the emasculator to be placed over the testis and spermatic cord without cutting, until pressure is applied. Types of emasculators Emasculators can be divided into 2 categories Crushing Crushing and Cutting Reimers Emascualtor has three actions: clamping, crushing and cutting. As the jaws are closed on the spermatic cord it is gripped by the clamping part. Back-lock retains the clamping part closed unless unlocked. The cutting lever works separately.

.17 Hornady Magnum Rimfire, commonly known as the .17 HMR, is a rimfire rifle cartridge developed by Hornady in 2002. It was developed by necking down a .22 Magnum case to take a .17 caliber (4.5 mm) projectile. Commonly loaded with a 17 grain (1.1 g) projectile, it can deliver muzzle velocities in excess of 775 m/s (2,650 ft/s). Development The .17 HMR round is similar to rounds developed by dedicated rimfire wildcatters who worked to create a rimfire cartridge with an exceptionally flat trajectory. These wildcatters were seeking to match the ballistics of the obsolete 5mm Remington Rimfire Magnum, which was made from 1970 to 1974, and was to that point the fastest rimfire cartridge ever produced. With 5 mm diameter barrels and bullets being virtually unavailable at the time (the 5mm RMR was the last commercial 5 mm round until the 2004 release of the centerfire .204 Ruger), the commercially available .17 caliber became their bullet of choice. The .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire was the logical parent case, rather than the 5mm RMR (with its unique case head size, which requires a significantly different bolt and magazine) because it was commonly available, and it is a far larger and stronger case than the next largest, the .22 Long Rifle. The .17 caliber wildcats not only met but far exceeded the 5mm RMR's velocities and flat trajectory. The accuracy of these cartridges was also quite good. However, the downrange energy of the 5mm RMR is superior to both .22 WMR and .17 HMR, so there is still potential in the 5 mm rimfire for wildcatters. Hornady, in conjunction with Marlin Firearms and Sturm, Ruger & Co. (manufacturers in the rimfire rifle market), followed much the same path. With the .22 WMR case as the starting point, a simple barrel change was sufficient for most .22 WMR firearms to chamber the new cartridge. In 2002, the first rifles and ammunition began appearing on the market. While the ammunition was relatively expensive due to the high-performance .17 caliber bullets used, it was still cheaper than most centerfire ammunition. By 2004, CCI, Federal Cartridge and Remington had each introduced .17 HMR ammunition offerings. Availability Cartridges for .17 HMR come with bullets that weigh , , and , and come in designs such as plastic-tipped bullets, hollow points, soft points, and FMJs. The terminal ballistics of the lightweight expanding bullets limit the .17 HMR to small game animals and varmints. .17 HMR ammunition is less common and more expensive than the .22 caliber rimfire rounds, but this is changing as the popularity of .17 HMR rifles gathers momentum. A growing number of companies offer .17 HMR ammunition. CCI Ammunition loads all of the .17 HMR ammunition for the CCI, Federal Cartridge, Hornady, and Remington brands. However, the ammunition is loaded with different bullets to different specifications. Ammunition is also available from Winchester, PMC and Sellier & Bellot. Examples of bolt-action or lever-action rifles that are chambered for (or have variants chambered for) .17 HMR include Armscor M1700, Browning T-Bolt, CZ 452, Ruger Model 96, Savage 93, Steyr Zephyr II, Marlin 917 and Weihrauch 60J. Citing safety concerns about the round's use in semi-automatic firearms, Remington issued a product safety warning and recall notice. .17 Hornady Mach 2 Following the success of the .17 HMR, the .17 Hornady Mach 2 was introduced in early 2004. The .17 HM2 is based on the .22 LR (slightly shorter in case length) case necked down to .17 caliber using the same bullet as the HMR but at a velocity of approximately in the polymer tip loading.

Malt granules are granules produced from malt, via a dried liquid wort, which can then be used for in production of beverages and food products. Malt granules are dissolved in water before use, and have a range of different applications, especially in beverage production. Production The first step in malt granule production is to produce a wort in a brewery. This wort is then dried (using a process such as the fluid bed technique, yielding the wort in a dried, granular form). Dissolving these granules will reproduce the original wort, retaining aroma compounds. This reconstituted wort can then be used in further brewing processes. Applications Malt granules can be used in fermentation plants in the brewing or distilling industry, as well as for soft drink manufacture. In particular, malt granules can be used in the same applications as its as described in detail at the malt article, in particular in beverages, including in malted milk), malt beverages with different flavors (e.g. Malta), energy drinks made with malt-sugar, and non-alcoholic beer. Advantages The advantage for said method for the production of granulates is that no loss of quality in the wort occurs during suitable temperature changes during the drying. The granulate can thus be coated with one or several further coatings, in particular with further flavorings. Above all flavorings can be encapsulated within the dried wort, such that the above is not lost on storage and possible transport. References Brewing ingredients

50 Reasons People Give for Believing in a God is a 2008 book by journalist Guy P. Harrison which examines fifty common reasons that believers across the world give for believing in a god or gods. Description This is the first book by Harrison. It examines fifty common reasons that believers across the world give for believing in a god, drawing on his conversations with people while traveling both for business and pleasure in twenty years as a journalist. Harrison notes that very few people are interested in the complex arguments that go on between theologians and atheists. The people he has talked with say they believe because that is what their parents taught them, and their parents would not lie to them, or because that is what it says in their book of wisdom. Of the fifty reasons, Harrison concludes that the most common reasons people believe are because it is just obvious to them, because everyone is religious so it must be true, or because it brings them happiness. Harrison describes Richard Dawkins' use of the term "faith heads" to describe believers as "a lot like an insult" and writes that it is "counterproductive." Reviews According to a review in Patheos, Harrison discusses the reasons believers give for believing in God, doing so "succinctly and painlessly", and without insults. The review says that he does this in an unusually understandable way.

Once a Doctor is a 1937 American drama film directed by William Clemens and written by Robertson White and Ben Grauman Kohn. The film stars Jean Muir, Donald Woods, Gordon Oliver, Joe King, Henry Kolker and Gordon Hart. The film was released by Warner Bros. on January 23, 1937. Plot Excerpts from the Hippocratic Oath appear before the title card. Jerry Brace, an irresponsible alcoholic, and his foster brother, Steven, are physicians, as is their father, Dr. Frank Brace. They work at the same hospital as eminent brain surgeon Dr. Bruce Nordland, a family friend. Both brothers are in love with Paula Nordland. Deeply grateful to Dr. Brace, Steven frequently covers for Jerry. Although he is supposed to be on duty, Jerry takes nurse Ruby Horton for a drunken ride and crashes. Afraid, Jerry takes her home. At the hospital, he begs Steven to go and save her. Jerry promises to sober up and order a dose of antitoxin for a patient. Steven finds that Ruby is already dead. Jerry never orders the shot and passes out. The man dies. Steven describes the events to Dr. Brace and Dr. Adams, but refuses to name the doctor he helped. Warned of the consequences to his career and their relationship by Dr. Brace, Steven persuades Jerry to go back to the office and confess. To Steven's horror, Jerry lies, pretending to be shocked at the suggestions. He blames his brother, who is fired and barred from future medical practice. Nordland trusts Steven, but all he can do is offer him a position as a male nurse at a clinic Nordland operates in a poor neighborhood. At the clinic, Dr. Lewis congratulates Steven on his fifth life-saving—but secret—surgery. They agree that all will be well until a patient dies. Just then, a child is injured in a street accident.  Steven calls Dr. Brace to perform the necessary operation, a Nordland Decompression. Paula comes with him. Brace says it is too late, but Steven insists it is worth trying. His father threatens to call the police, and Paula says she will give up on him. The police arrive while the operation is underway. Paula and Dr, Brace testify in court. The magistrate is inclined to wait, but word comes that the child has died. Steven is convicted of manslaughter. Dr. Brace washes his hands of him, and Jerry makes a play for Paula, saying that Steven was not fit to be a doctor and promising that he will give the profession and Paula the treatment they deserve. A year later, Steven is paroled, remanded to Dr. Nordland's custody. Nordland says that an autopsy revealed that Steven's surgery on the child was indistinguishable from his own. Steven's ability to perform Nordland Decompressions makes him invaluable to medical science. He cannot practice in the United States, but Nordland has established a charity clinic in Cuba. Dr. Brace, Jerry and Paula sail to Havana on a private yacht the same day that Steven sails on the SS Orlando, a Cuban freighter whose ship's doctor is a friend of the Nordlands. On the yacht, Paula and Dr. Brace are revolted by Jerry's drinking, and when Jerry tries to stop his father from throwing a bottle overboard during a storm, Dr. Brace falls. Still drunk, Jerry diagnoses a basal fracture. He wants to operate. The yacht's radio distress call picks up the Orlando. Despite the storm, the vessels proceed to a rendezvous, but there is no way to get Steven to the yacht by boat. Steven proposes a breeches buoy. Captain Littlejohn refuses responsibility for Steven's life, but fires a line. As the Captain predicted, Steven is underwater for much of the trip, but he makes it just as Jerry is preparing to operate. Paula hides when she hears Steven's voice, and crewmen muscle Jerry out of the cabin. When he sees who the patient is, Steven turns to leave. Paula stops him. He lists the many  wrongs he has experienced, and Paula replies with the Hippocratic oath. He asks her to administer the anesthetic. In a Havana hotel, Nordland interrupts Steven and Paula. He is going to introduce Steven to the board as the superintendent of his clinic. Dr Brace asks to see them. He has a telegram from Jerry. In “the first decent act of his life.” Jerry has confessed. He is going away for good. Steven agrees to keep Dr. Brace's name and undertakes to share it with Paula. They kiss.

Fungal Diversity is an international journal which publishes papers spanning all facets of the field of mycology. It is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that covers the biodiversity, and systematic and molecular phylogeny of the fungi, including lichens. The coverage encompasses biodiversity, and systematic and molecular phylogeny. The content includes novel research articles and review articles, all of which are peer reviewed. Fungal Diversity is the official journal of Kunming Institute of Botany of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which is based in China. Publication Bias From the 133 research articles published between January 2015 and April 2020, 62.4% (83) had at least one member of the editorial board within the authors and 51.1% (68) carried the name of the same researcher (Kevin D. Hyde) as an author. Within the top 10 publishing authors in the journal (more than 22 articles published in the period above) only two are not members of the editorial board. The journal self-citation is considerably high. On average per article 17.33 citations refer to another Fungal Diversity article, this number can be as high as 156 in an article published in 2017. These actions help to inflate the impact factor of the journal without being caught by the scrutinizing agencies.

Zuppa toscana is a broad based term, literally meaning "Tuscan soup" but in Italy it is called "Minestra di Pane" meaning "Bread Soup". Classic zuppa toscana normally is a soup made from kale, zucchini, cannellini beans, potatoes, celery, carrots, onion, tomato pulp, extra virgin olive oil, salt, powdered chili, toasted Tuscan bread, and rigatino (an Italian bacon). The onion, carrots and celery are diced and tossed in hot oil and salt. The other vegetables are then added with the chili and cooked for about 15 minutes. Water is added and the mixture is simmered for around 30 minutes. The soup is served on toasted Tuscan bread, with just a tiny splash of extra virgin olive oil. A North American version, popularized by Olive Garden and made with Italian sausage, crushed red peppers, diced white onion, bacon, garlic puree, chicken bouillon, heavy cream, potatoes, and kale is richer than the original.

Transistor Fault model is a Fault model used to describe faults for CMOS logic gates. At transistor level, a transistor may be stuck-short or stuck-open. In stuck-short, a transistor behaves as it is always conducts (or stuck-on), and stuck-open is when a transistor never conducts current (or stuck-off). Stuck-short will usually produce a short between VDD and VSS. In the example picture, a faulty PMOS transistor in a CMOS NAND Gate is shown (M3-highlighted transistor). If M3 is stuck-open, then in case we apply A=1 and B=0 then the output of the circuit will become Z. And if M3 is stuck-short, then the output will always be connected to 1, and it also may short VCC to GND in case we apply A=B=1. Digital electronics Electronic design Electronic circuit verification

Philippa de Clarence (autrefois Philippe de Clarence), née le au palais d'Eltham dans le Kent et morte le à Cork en Irlande, est un membre de la maison royale Plantagenêt, suo jure cinquième comtesse d'Ulster. Biographie L'unique enfant de Lionel d'Anvers, duc de Clarence et d'Élisabeth de Burgh, d'Ulster, son père est le second fils d'Édouard III, roi d'Angleterre et de Philippa de Hainaut. Le , elle se marie à l'abbaye de Reading avec Edmond Mortimer, de March, alliance qui fut lourde de conséquence dans l'histoire de l'Angleterre. Tant que son cousin germain Richard II Duc d'Aquitaine, roi d'Angleterre, n'avait pas d'enfants, Philippa est l'héritière présomptive au trône. Après sa mort en 1382, ses droits passent à son fils Roger Mortimer. Quand Richard II renonça à la Couronne le , l'héritier en droit était Edmond, dont le père était mort l'année précédente. Cependant le trône est usurpé par un autre cousin germain de Philippa et de Richard II, Henri de Bolingbroke, ce qui fut plus tard la cause de la guerre des Deux-Roses. En raison de la primogéniture de leur lignée dans la succession d'Angleterre, ses descendants issus de la maison d'York réussirent à monter sur le trône, en la personne du roi Édouard IV. Elle meurt le à Cork, probablement de fièvre, et est enterrée à l'abbaye de Wigmore. Mariage et enfants De son mariage avec Edmond Mortimer, elle eut : Élisabeth (, château d'Usk † , château de Portchester), mariée à sir Henry Percy, puis à Thomas de Camoys ( baron Camoys) ; Roger (, château d'Usk † , motte castrale de Kells), 4 comte de March et d'Ulster ; Philippa (, château de Ludlow † , château d'Halnaker) mariée à John de Hastings (3e comte de Pembroke), puis à Richard FitzAlan (4e comte d'Arundel), ensuite à Thomas de Poynings ( St. John) ; Sir Edmond Mortimer (, château de Ludlow † 1409, château de Harlech) qui joua un rôle important avec son beau-frère Hotspur dans le destin d'Owain Glyndŵr.
