New CCD photometry of NGC 6366 has lead to the discovery of some variable stars. Two possible Anomalous Cepheids (or Pop II Cepheids), three long period variables, one SX Phe and one eclipsing binary have been found. Also a list of 10 candidate variables is reported. The light curve of the RRab star, V1, has been dec...
Generating a digital twin of any complex system requires modeling and computational approaches that are efficient, accurate, and modular. Traditional reduced order modeling techniques are targeted at only the first two but the novel non-intrusive approach presented in this study is an attempt at taking all three into...
This is obviously an attempt to misdirect satire targeting the status quo and waste our creativity giving "trolls" more attention than they deserve. Worse, it's a way of dividing comm enters against other comm enters. The humorous antics of Yippies back in the 60's and 70's was one of the most effective techniques in ...
If someone has had surgery to alter their gender, then I think its fine that they use the washroom of their new gender. But a person with a 5 o'clock shadow sporting a twig and berries walking in a woman's washroom or pool locker room because they feel like a woman is patently ridiculous.
but I really like the quality of the small doors I've ordered and installed two of these doors. I can't speak for the large sizes, as I've gotten the small doors for my cats, but I really like the quality of the small doors. The installation isn't too difficult if you're good with tools. You will need a jigsaw and dri...
We propose a mixture-of-experts approach for unsupervised domain adaptation from multiple sources. The key idea is to explicitly capture the relationship between a target example and different source domains. This relationship, expressed by a point-to-set metric, determines how to combine predictors trained on variou...
Interest in the research areas related to meme propagation and generation has been increasing rapidly in the last couple of years. Meme datasets available online are either specific to a context or contain no class information. Here, we prepare a large-scale dataset of memes with captions and class labels. The datase...
Harvey Schacter is slipping a bit. Over 5 hours after this latest piece hit the on-line, and I'm posting the first comment. Maybe the ONLY comment. Some unsolicited advice: Harvey! Listen up! You may not get another chance at G&M! You have to think about instant hooks in the headline. Anything that features the wo...
Backs come off too easy. The back of these come off so easy. The back with the battery are constantly falling off. I’m going to have to stop using them because I have a toddler and a dog and I can’t risk them finding a loose battery all over the house.
Let me say from the outset I'm not a particular fan of this kind of film, but Nightbreed holds a certain fascination for me with a message about perspective.<br /><br />Back in the old days, the folks who inhabit Midian would have been called Zombies, the undead. And according to what Clive Barker has given us certain ...
In this work, we show that a class of metric-affine gravities can be reduced to a Riemann-Cartan one. The reduction is based on the cancelation of the nonmetricity against the symmetric components of the spin connection. A heuristic proof, in the Einstein-Cartan formalism, is performed in the special case of diagonal...
We review some facts about the representation theory of the Hecke algebra. We adapt for the Hecke algebra case the approach of Okounkov and Vershik which was developed for the representation theory of symmetric groups. We justify an explicit construction of the idempotents in the Hecke algebra in terms of Jucys-Murph...
The light CP even Higgs boson mass, Mh, is calculated to three-loop accuracy within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). The result is expressed in terms of DRbar parameters and implemented in the computer program H3m. The calculation is based on the proper approximations and their combination in various...
We prove the locally differentiable rigidity of generic partially hyperbolic abelian algebraic high-rank actions on compact homogeneous spaces obtained from split symplectic Lie groups. We also gave a non-generic action rigidity example on compact homogeneous spaces obtained from SL(2n,R) or SL(2n,C). The conclusions...
And again, I find myself in the minority.<br /><br />I didn't like this one. This is the ONLY Varney work I haven't embraced, including Knowhutimean. Slam Dunk Ernest rates the credit for being the worst of the line, but this is a clear competitor for that dubious title.<br /><br />This work is too rough, and too base ...
Disk galaxies can exchange angular momentum and baryons with their host dark matter (DM) halos. These halos possess internal spin, `lambda', which is insignificant rotationally but does affect interactions between the baryonic and DM components. While statistics of prograde and retrograde spinning halos in galaxies i...
We address the problem of graph classification based only on structural information. Inspired by natural language processing techniques (NLP), our model sequentially embeds information to estimate class membership probabilities. Besides, we experiment with NLP-like variational regularization techniques, making the mo...
When the members of the USCCB suddenly jolted their awareness into our current unpleasant Trump reality, my first thought was how similar their 'dismay' and 'disappointment' etc. was to Captain Renault in Casablanca: I'm shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here! Trump is now what he has always been. ...
The adult sex ratio (ASR) is defined as the number of fertile males divided by the number of fertile females in a population. We build an ODE model with minimal age structure, in which males compete for paternities using either a multiple-mating or searching-then-guarding strategy, to investigate the value of ASR as ...
A numerical algorithm for explicitly computing the spectrum of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on Calabi-Yau threefolds is presented. The requisite Ricci-flat metrics are calculated using a method introduced in previous papers. To illustrate our algorithm, the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplacian are compute...
We show that a perfect obstruction theory for a $\mathbb{G}_\text{m}$-gerbe determines a semi-perfect obstruction theory for its base, which is perfect if the gerbe is quasi-compact and affine-pointed. These results streamline the construction of a semi-perfect obstruction theory for the base, and allow us to relate ...
We establish a 1:1 correspondence between Poisson-Lie group actions on integrable Poisson manifolds and twisted multiplicative hamiltonian actions on source 1-connected symplectic groupoids. For an action of a Poisson-Lie group $G$ on a Poisson manifold $M$, we find an explicit description of the lifted hamiltonian a...
We report on the HST detection of the Lyman-continuum (LyC) radiation emitted by a galaxy at redshift z=3.794, dubbed Ion1 (Vanzella et al. 2012). The LyC from Ion1 is detected at rest-frame wavelength 820$\sim$890 \AA with HST WFC3/UVIS in the F410M band ($m_{410}=27.60\pm0.36$ magnitude (AB), peak SNR = 4.17 in a c...
Displacement and velocity memory effects in the exact, vacuum, plane gravitational wave line element have been studied recently by looking at the behaviour of pairs of geodesics or via geodesic deviation. Instead, one may investigate the evolution of geodesic congruences. In our work here, we obtain the evolution of ...
Breast cancer mortality remains unacceptably high, indicating a need for safer and more effective therapeutic agents. Disulfide bond Disrupting Agents (DDAs) were previously identified as a novel class of anticancer compounds that selectively kill cancers that overexpress the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) or ...
We do not know much of what going on there. There is untold history that must be learned in that region. WW11 started because of the history of war in the previous wars, claim and counter claim. If you look at the history book this part of the world have not really seen peace for too long. Human being carry with...
Carton arrived on time but with several parts discrepancies. Carton visibly crushed & damaged but still secured contents. Comparing parts w/ packing list revealed missing assembly screw and protective plastic plug and an excess of washers & nuts. E-mailed JB Tools with problem & complete details. Response was that the...
Activity recognition and, more generally, behavior inference tasks are gaining a lot of interest. Much of it is work in the context of human behavior. New available tracking technologies for wild animals are generating datasets that indirectly may provide information about animal behavior. In this work, we propose a ...
Gosh, the race bots are out in full force today. This comment is worth repeating. Please stop being reflexively defensive when someone points out white privilege/racism; same suggestion goes for men who reflexively deny the existence of sexism. Please stop reflexively adding ‘all’ in front of ‘men’ or ‘white peopl...
Sparky Well I’ll give it 2 star it did work for awhile. Had my inverter for about 9 months. Went to charge up some battery in my company truck for my battery powered tools well lucky I had just started pulling off when the inverter started shooting sparks out of the fan. It did work great before that so I don’t know. ...
Recent studies show that a maximally entangled Schwinger pair creates a nontraversable Einstein-Rosen~(ER) bridge (wormhole) in the gravitational theory, which bridges causally not connected parts of the AdS spacetime~[PRL 111, 211603 and 211602]. Same authors raise the possibility of a general correspondence between...
In the geometric version of the Langlands correspondence, irregular singular point connections play the role of Galois representations with wild ramification. In this paper, we develop a geometric theory of fundamental strata to study irregular singular connections on the projective line. Fundamental strata were orig...
This work utilizes data-driven methods to morph a series of time-resolved experimental OH-PLIF images into corresponding three-component planar PIV fields in the closed domain of a premixed swirl combustor. The task is carried out with a fully convolutional network, which is a type of convolutional neural network (CN...
Not what I expected. The product was no where near what I was expecting. First of all it was used not new. That back plastic side had a bunch of lint and small dirt spots in. You can see shades of brown in the front cover. Moreover the leather smelled like BO.
Operator-valued frame ($G$-frame), as a generalization of frame is introduced by Kaftal, Larson, and Zhang in \textit{Trans. Amer. Math. Soc.}, 361(12):6349-6385, 2009 and by Sun in \textit{J. Math. Anal. Appl.}, 322(1):437-452, 2006. It has been further extended in the paper arXiv:1810.01629 [math.OA] 3 October 2018...
The other viewpoint illustrated by the rapporteur' s initial statement and shared by a number of members is to promote regulations and codes of conduct which are needed in order to establish among insurers ways of organising costs on a mutual basis providing everybody with guaranteed access to high-quality care and to ...
Wait. Lemme get this right, Justin. Thanks to you, I can face sanctions and fines if I inadvertently or willfully reject someone's request to use their choice of personal pronoun. If I demonstrate a dislike for anything Islam or Muslim, I face repercussions under M-103. and yet it isn't the government's job to tell ...
"Random Color" means mostly drab colors. One pair was an adult size. ??? Two browns, two grays, one navy blue, one orange, and one pink in a gigantic size. My girls wear little kid size 13 shoes, and even the smaller size pictured here was too big, but we probably would have kept anyway because the quality felt nice, ...
Let $\mathscr T$ be a $2$-Calabi--Yau triangulated category, $T$ a cluster tilting object with endomorphism algebra $\Gamma$. Consider the functor $\mathscr T( T,- ) : \mathscr T \rightarrow \mod \Gamma$. It induces a bijection from the isomorphism classes of cluster tilting objects to the isomorphism classes of supp...
We present a complete calculation of the electroweak O(alpha^3 alpha_s) corrections to three-jet production and related event-shape observables at electron--positron colliders. The Z-boson resonance is described within the complex-mass scheme, rendering the calculation valid both in the resonance and off-shell region...
In this paper we study the dynamic versions of two basic graph problems: Minimum Dominating Set and its variant Minimum Connected Dominating Set. For those two problems, we present algorithms that maintain a solution under edge insertions and edge deletions in time $O(\Delta\cdot \text{polylog}~n)$ per update, where ...
All the more reason to own a gun. But while you're ate that computer search, also check for violent crime because murder is not the only problem in this world. After violent crime look into how much time someone does after committing a gun crime and who was let off or out after committing a violent crime. James T. Hodg...
Met police recorded 149 homicides in 2019 to 30 December, up from 135 in 2018 The number of homicides in London has hit a 10-year high and there has been a surge in knife and gang-related killings since 2014, figures show. The Metropolitan police recorded 149 homicides in 2019 up to 30 December. In five years the hom...
We argue that topological compactons (solitons with compact support) may be quite common objects if $k$-fields, i.e., fields with nonstandard kinetic term, are considered, by showing that even for models with well-behaved potentials the unusual kinetic part may lead to a power-like approach to the vacuum, which is a ...
Why are "analogue spacetimes'' interesting? For the purposes of this workshop the answer is simple: Analogue spacetimes provide one with physically well-defined and physically well-understood concrete models of many of the phenomena that seem to be part of the yet incomplete theory of "quantum gravity'', or more acce...
Based on the well-known cardinal characteristics $\mathfrak{s}$, $\mathfrak{r}$ and $\mathfrak{i}$, we introduce nine related cardinal characteristics by using the notion of asymptotic density to characterise different intersection properties of infinite sets. We prove several bounds and consistency results, e. g. th...
Block maxima methods constitute a fundamental part of the statistical toolbox in extreme value analysis. However, most of the corresponding theory is derived under the simplifying assumption that block maxima are independent observations from a genuine extreme value distribution. In practice however, block sizes are ...
The premise is amazing and the some of the acting, notably Sally Kellerman and Anthony Rapp, is charming... but this film is near unwatchable. The music sounds as if it comes from some sort of the royalty free online site and the lyrics as if they were written with a rhyming dictionary open on the lap. Most of the sing...
We investigate the theory of observers in the quantum mechanical world by using a novel model of the human brain which incorporates the glial network into the Hopfield model of the neural network. Our model is based on a microscopic construction of a quantum Hamiltonian of the synaptic junctions. Using the Eguchi-Kaw...
Noni Hazlehurst's tour-de-force performance (which won her an AFI award) is at least on par with her effort in FRAN three years later. Colin Friels is also good, and, for those who are interested, Alice Garner appears as Noni's child, and Michael Caton (best known for THE CASTLE) is a bearded painter. (Also interesting...
RG: "Eventually she determined that Eugene attorney Greg Hunt was the trustee for the Maxine M. Childers Special Needs trust, and in May 2015 she sent him a letter explaining the problem. Hunt called her and said he would take care of it, she said. “Well, that didn’t happen,” Burgess said. “I didn’t hear back from hi...
We report the serendipitous detection of a Wide-Angle-Tail (WAT) radio galaxy at 240 and 610 MHz, using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT). This WAT is hosted by a cD galaxy PGC 1519010 whose photometric redshift given in the SDSS DR6 catalog is close to the spectroscopic redshifts (0.105, 0.106 and 0.107) of...
There is no need for me to repeat the synopsis rendered by Glenn. The black and white rendition is even more powerful in portraying the bleakness of country village life at that time. The deep measure of friendship shown by Babette toward the two elderly sisters touches the heart strings. The supporting cast is excelle...
Recent work has studied the reasons for the remarkable performance of deep neural networks in image classification. We examine batch normalization on the one hand and the dynamical systems view of residual networks on the other hand. Our goal is in understanding the notions of stability and smoothness of the inter-la...
Can you explain that? There are reports everywhere of green card holders being denied entry to the US today. US citizens cannot be turned back at the border, but green card holders are still in the citizenship process and don't have any kind of constitutional guarantee. I've seen an argument that it might not be legal...
The massive interacting binary RY Scuti is an important representative of an active mass-transferring system that is changing before our eyes and which may be an example of the formation of a Wolf-Rayet star through tidal stripping. Utilizing new and previously published spectra, we present examples of how a number o...
By employing the perturbative QCD (PQCD) factorization approach, we studied the sixteen $B/B_s \to \eta_c (\pi, K, \eta^{(\prime)},\rho,K^*,\omega,\phi)$ decays with the inclusion of the currently known next-to-leading order (NLO) contributions. We found the following main points: (a) for the five measured $B \to \et...
My wife and I saw this when we were 17. The only good thing my father ever did (get us in). This is "our movie" and the music is "our songs". Michelle's song is "our" song. Yeah, nowadays, it's a crime to show naked children on the screen, but we were screwing at 16, why not these kids? The movie is- rich boy impregnat...
The absorption cross section of highly luminescent individual single-walled carbon nanotubes is determined using time-resolved and cw luminescence spectroscopy. A mean value of 1x10-17 cm2 per carbon atom is obtained for (6,5) tubes excited at their second optical transition, and corroborated by single tube photother...
In this letter, we present the first 3D force-free general relativity simulations of the magnetosphere dynamics related to the magnetar outburst/flare phenomenology. Starting from an initial dipole configuration, we adiabatically increase the helicity by twisting the footprints of a spot on the stellar surface and fo...
We propose an algorithm to find a solution to an integro-differential equation of the DGLAP type for all the orders in the running coupling $\alpha$ with splitting functions given at a fixed order in $\alpha.$ Complex analysis is significantly used in the construction of the algorithm, we found a simpler way to calcu...
It's initial premise is based on the American Civil War but it's ultimately a love story. We start at the beginning of the war where the main characters (Kidman & Law) are obviously aware of each other and there's an obvious attraction, they have a passionate kiss on the day he leaves for the war. The main thrust of th...
We perform a calculation of inclusive $Z$ boson production in proton-lead collisions at the LHC taking into account the transverse momenta of the initial partons. We use the framework of $k_T$-factorization combining transverse momentum dependent parton distributions (TMDs) with off-shell matrix elements. In order to...
Given a positive definite covariance matrix $\widehat \Sigma$, we strive to construct an optimal \emph{approximate} factor analysis model $HH^\top +D$, with $H$ having a prescribed number of columns and $D>0$ diagonal. The optimality criterion we minimize is the I-divergence between the corresponding normal laws. Lif...
This was one of the best shows ever made for TV. Full of mystery and intrigue and twists and turns. Compulsive viewing. I was lucky I saw this in the UK. They might have got the episode order wrong, I can't remember, but it at least was on at a regular time every week. My girlfriend and I got hooked from the trailer in...
This paper introduced NgViz, a tool that examines DNS traffic and shows anomalies in n-gram frequencies. This is accomplished by comparing input files against a fingerprint of legitimate traffic. Both quantitative analysis and visual aids are provided that allow the user to make determinations about the legitimacy of...
Do not purchase, not happy at all. Not as advertised at all. This screen protector has almost a matte feel and look to it, this protector makes the screen have a slight blur to it as well. When using the cleaning wipes, they left a residue and I had to get a different cloth and cleaner to clear it up before installing...
Usually it is supposed that Majorana neutrino produced in the superposition state $\chi_L = \nu_L + (\nu_L)^c$ and then follows the neutrinoless double beta decay. But since weak interactions are chiral invariant then the neutrino at production has definite helicity (i.e., $\nu_L$ and $(\nu_L)^c$ neutrinos are separa...
Actually works! As a recreational griller at best, I did a lot of research on pellet grills. Depending on what you want, size wise, I will vouch for the brand that everything works. Steady temp, easy Wi-fi connections, great customer service. I would suggest if you are cooking for more than 4, you should look at their...
Understanding the retention and recycling of hydrogen isotopes in liquid metal plasma-facing materials such as liquid Li, Sn, and Li-Sn are of fundamental importance in designing magnetically confined fusion reactors. We perform first-principles molecules dynamics simulations of liquid Li-Sn slab with inserted D atom...
In this paper, a class of relay networks is considered. We assume that, at a node, outgoing channels to its neighbors are orthogonal, while incoming signals from neighbors can interfere with each other. We are interested in the multicast capacity of these networks. As a subclass, we first focus on Gaussian relay netw...
We consider a Min-Power Bounded-Hops Symmetric Connectivity problem that consists in the construction of communication spanning tree on a given graph, where the total energy consumption spent for the data transmission is minimized and the maximum number of hops between two nodes is bounded by some predefined constant...
Experimental demonstration of the quantum advantage over classical simulations with Boson Sampling is currently under intensive investigation. There seems to be a scalability issue to the necessary number of bosons on the linear optical platforms and the experiments, such as the recent Boson Sampling with $20$ photon...
Besides a git-based version control system, GitHub integrates several social coding features. Particularly, GitHub users can star a repository, presumably to manifest interest or satisfaction with an open source project. However, the real and practical meaning of starring a project was never the subject of an in-dept...
The effect of confinement in the segmental relaxation of polymers is considered. On the basis of a thermodynamic model we discuss the emerging relevance of the fast degrees of freedom in stimulating the much slower segmental relaxation, as an effect of the constraints at the walls of the amorphous regions. In the cas...
Motivated by slow-roll inflationary cosmology we study a scalar unparticle weakly coupled to a Higgs field in the broken symmetry phase. The mixing between the unparticle and the Higgs field results in a seesaw type matrix and the mixing angles feature a Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein (MSW) effect as a consequence of t...
And believe me that's a pretty stunning accomplishment. Take "Jolly Roger: Massacre at Cutter's Cove," change the killer from a pirate to a prospector, change his obsession from buried treasure to old gold, and his color from puke green to deep blue. You now have "Miner's Massacre." The problem is, at least "Jolly Roge...

I watched the MST3K version of the movie, and this review includes minor spoilers.<br /><br />When I started watching this movie, it looked like it might have promise as a cheesy sci-fi flick, but the more I watched it, the more disappointing it got. The first reason is pretty idiosyncratic - I liked the mousy shy girl...
Elf Light Rose I ordered this in Elf Light Rose and it is a lot more orange than pictured. It also smells/tastes strongly of dish soap, which does not fade after you put it on. The color also clings to any dry spots on your lips and emphasizes lines. Disappointing, since I own this product in other colors and I have h...
Random field excursions is an increasingly vital topic within data analysis in medicine, cosmology, materials science, etc. This work is the first detailed study of their Betti numbers in the so-called `sparse' regime. Specifically, we consider a piecewise constant Gaussian field whose covariance function is positive...
"But more intense storms are what scientists expect to see as the planet’s climate changes because warmer ocean water is fuel for hurricanes". However how does this play if climate change is melting the poles. Think ice in warm water. Is it possible these more intense storms are because there isn't global warming. It...
We conjecture that the p-adic L-function of a non-trivial irreducible even Artin character over a totally real field is non-zero at all non-zero integers. This implies that a conjecture formulated by Coates and Lichtenbaum at negative integers extends in a suitable way to all positive integers. We also state a conjec...
We study the dynamics of a particle moving in one-dimensional Lorentz lattice-gas where particle performs mainly three different kinds of motion {\it viz} ballistic motion, diffusion and confinement. There are two different types of scatterers, {\it viz} reflector and transmitters, randomly placed in the lattice. Ref...
Among the most important graph parameters is the Diameter, the largest distance between any two vertices. There are no known very efficient algorithms for computing the Diameter exactly. Thus, much research has been devoted to how fast this parameter can be approximated. Chechik et al. showed that the diameter can be...
Opioid overdose is a growing public health crisis in the United States. This crisis, recognized as "opioid epidemic," has widespread societal consequences including the degradation of health, and the increase in crime rates and family problems. To improve the overdose surveillance and to identify the areas in need of...
We investigate cross-correlations in the tunneling currents through two parallel quantum dots coupled to independent electrodes and gates and interacting via an inter-dot Coulomb interaction. The correlations reveal additional information, beyond what can be learned from the current or conductance, about the dynamics...
In the framework of Generalised Parton Distributions, we study the helicity-dependent and independent cross sections measured in Hall A and the beam spin asymmetries measured in Hall B at Jefferson Laboratory. We perform a global fit of these data and fits on each kinematical bin. We extract the real and imaginary pa...
Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary $\pp M$ and $L= \DD+Z$ for a $C^1$-vector field $Z$ on $M$. Several equivalent statements, including the gradient and Poincar\'e/log-Sobolev type inequalities of the Neumann semigroup generated by $L$, are presented for lower bound conditions on the curvature of ...
Christmas isn't over just yet. Eight people have been named to Order of Newfoundland and Labrador, including Santa's longtime stand-in, Bruce Templeton. Templeton, of Outer Cove, has been invested into the order for his decades of volunteer work, community leadership and humanitarianism — including more than 40 years...
Button for fly failed the 1st time I put them on. The main button literally fell off in my hand the 1st time I put them on. This is just poor quality control/manufacturing. I immediately took them off and dropped them off w/ my seamstress with instructions to double-stitch all of the buttons. For this his added cost, ...
This paper presents three fully convolutional neural network architectures which perform change detection using a pair of coregistered images. Most notably, we propose two Siamese extensions of fully convolutional networks which use heuristics about the current problem to achieve the best results in our tests on two ...
An unusual mystery series. I recommend it for anyone looking for so different. I love this series. Lucy and the vampires once again investigate a murder. I like how Lucy struggles with learning how to knit and her magical powers. I liked learning more about the lives of the vampires when they were human. Those backgro...
8 Simple Rules is a funny show but it also has some life lessons especially one mature lesson about moving on after a lose which was the episode where Paul died which was the first episode I have ever watched of the show that comes on ABC. The Hennessy clan -- mother Cate (Katey Sagal), daughters Bridget (Kaley Cuoco) ...
The problem with TV today is that people have been spoiled by "lite" TV viewing. This type of television show is the equivalent of elevator music or "easy listening" jazz. The typical viewers idea of "continuity" is remembering who got voted off the island last week and wondering who will be the next to go. Show them a...
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reconstruction is an active inverse problem which can be addressed by conventional compressed sensing (CS) MRI algorithms that exploit the sparse nature of MRI in an iterative optimization-based manner. However, two main drawbacks of iterative optimization-based CSMRI methods are time...
Although the 2P3/2-2P1/2 transition of [CII] at 158um is known to be an excellent tracer of active star formation, we still do not have a complete understanding of where within star formation regions the emission originates. Here, we use SOFIA upGREAT observations of [CII] emission toward the HII region complex Sh2-2...
I saw this when it first came out and have seen it several times since. I have the DVD. It's one of Drew Barrymore's best works and one that is worth seeing more than once. <br /><br />Not being popular in high school was one f the things in the film I could relate to. I wasn't quite as tortured as Josie was (during he...
It seems we are in agreement about both personal forgiveness AND civil punishment. I have long since come to realize that a lot of what consumed my anger towards others was really self inflicted punishment. This included my relationship with a brother who left me holding the bag too many times. I was furious ...
We present a numerical study of the flow of an assembly of frictionless soft discs at zero temperature, in the vicinity of and slightly above the jamming density. We find that some of the flow properties, such as the fluctuations in the number of contacts or the shear modulus, display a critical like behaviour that i...
