 this instance—possibly in deference to the security issues, possibly because the embassy to the Holy See will get its own building and its own entrance, or possibly because the Vatican simply has better things to do. The U.S. isn’t setting any sort of dire precedent with the move – the United Kingdom, Israel, and the Netherlands already “collocate” their embassies to Italy and the Vatican.

According to the State Department, the new embassy will actually be bigger than the current one, and the consolidation will reportedly save $1.4 million per year. If the U.S. Embassy to Italy and the U.S. Embassy to the Vatican occasionally share a Xerox machine, the Roman Catholic Church will surely survive.

It may be too much to hope for that Rep. Darrell Issa and Sens. Ted Cruz and Lindsey Graham – all first-class Benghazi demagogues – will join this crusade, because doing so would expose them as hypocrites on the issue of embassy security. But such considerations didn’t deter Bush and the NRSC, nor such right-wing news outlets as the Washington Times, Fox and Friends, and The Daily Caller, all of whom shamelessly politicized the Benghazi attack. Their extreme concern for the safety of embassy workers, we may now conclude, is fraudulent.<|endoftext|>Warren E. Hearnes

Warren Eastman Hearnes (July 24, 1923 – August 16, 2009) was an American politician who served as the 46th Governor of Missouri from 1965 to 1973. A member of the Democratic Party, he was the first officeholder eligible to serve two consecutive four-year terms.

Early life
Born in Moline, Illinois, Hearnes moved to Charleston, Missouri as a child and resided there until his death. After high school, he attended the University of Missouri for a year and a half, until he was drafted. Soon after reporting for duty, Hearnes was appointed by President Roosevelt to the United States Military Academy at West Point, Class of 1946. He married Betty Cooper (born July 24, 1927), his childhood sweetheart, on July 2, 1947.

He served in the U.S. Army and was medically discharged in 1949 after he broke his ankle in a softball game. He was a 1952 graduate of the University of Missouri School of Law. While attending law school, he was elected to the Missouri House of Representatives in 1950 and served until 1961. He served as majority floor leader from 1957 until leaving office.

In 1960, he ran for Missouri Secretary of State. In the primary, he defeated James Kirkpatrick, garnering 42.15% of the vote. He defeated Joseph Badgett in the general election with 56.18% of the vote.

Governor

In 1964 he challenged the remnants of the Tom Pendergast political machine in the race for governor. During the primary he campaigned against Kansas City establishment candidate Hilary A. Bush charging, "At one time all Missouri was controlled from Kansas City by a man named Pendergast. This type of machine politics should never be allowed to rear its ugly head again in Missouri politics." Among Hearnes' planks was an effort to gain support in western Missouri by the establishment of a four-year college (Missouri Western State University) in the population center of St. Joseph, Missouri despite the presence of a state college (Northwest Missouri State University) less than 50 miles away in the much smaller city of Maryville, Missouri.

Hearnes also campaigned against the Central Trust Bank of Jefferson City, Missouri (which, since its 1902 founding by Lon Stephens, had been the central depository for state funds), saying that the bank's power was creating an atmosphere where establishment forces would "select rather than elect" a leader.

Hearnes won the primary over Bush with 51.9% of the vote. He won by more than 500,000 votes and 62% of the vote, defeating Republican Washington University in St. Louis chancellor Ethan A.H. Shepley. His lieutenant governor in the race was Thomas Eagleton. In 1965 the constitution was amended to permit governors to succeed themselves to serve two terms.

He was re-elected in 1968. He defeated Lawrence K. Roos, former St. Louis County Executive and former president of the St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank. He had 60.8% of the vote.

Hearnes' priorities as Governor included improving public education, bettering the state's highways and traffic safety, as well as civil rights and the environment. State aid to public schools increased from $145.5 million to $389.2 million during Hearnes' term as governor, an increase of 167%, and he also increased state aid to higher education from $47.5 million to $144.7 million, an increase of 204%.

He oversaw the increase of state aid to vocational education from $856,000 to $8.8 million, fostering the establishment 53 new area vocational educational schools. While Hearnes was Governor, the State of Missouri built 350 miles of four-lane highways throughout the state. He also created the Missouri Division of Highway Safety and enacted a law providing mandatory breath tests for suspected drunken drivers. Hearnes increased uniform strength of the Missouri State Highway Patrol from 500 to 750 officers.

Hearnes was Governor during the Civil Rights era and as Governor he signed a Public Accommodations Law, Missouri's first civil rights act. As governor he also strengthened the Fair Employment Practices Act and increased the staff of the Human Rights Commission from two employees to 35. Hearnes also enacted the state's first air pollution law, with subsequent strengthening of its provisions. He oversaw the passage of a $150 million water pollution bond issue to provide state matching funds for sewage control construction projects, and created the state's Clean Water Commission to enforce water pollution laws. He also was responsible for the provision of first state financial grants for mass transit and urban rapid transit facilities. He created the Department of Community Affairs to assist local governments in obtaining technical assistance and grants for city planning, zoning, housing, sewage treatment, industrial development, and other municipal and regional projects.

In 1970, he was elected chairman of the National Governor's Association which held its annual conference at Lake of the Ozarks. In 1972, he supported Edmund Muskie for President and was considered a possible running mate, had Muskie won the nomination.

Post gubernatorial career
After leaving office Hearnes was plagued with tax problems which were ultimately cleared in 1977.  His problems were highlighted by an exposé in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.  Hearnes sued the paper for defamation and the case was ultimately settled with terms undisclosed. He made three unsuccessful runs for office between 1976 and 1980.

Hearnes ran for United State Senate in 1976. He placed second in the primary with 26.9 percent of the vote. The winner, Jerry Litton, had 45.4%, but was killed in a plane crash en route to a primary election victory party on August 3. In a new primary on August 21 Hearnes defeated Jim Spainhower with 60.8% of the vote. Hearnes lost the general election to John Danforth who garnered 56.9% of the vote.

In 1978 he ran unsuccessfully for Missouri state auditor, losing the general election to Republican James F. Antonio, who received 50.8% of the vote. His wife, Betty Cooper Hearnes, began her own political career as a state representative in 1979, serving until 1988. She also was the 1988 Democratic nominee for governor.

In 1980, Hearnes was appointed Circuit Court Judge, making him the first person in Missouri history to serve in all three branches of the state government. However he failed to be elected to the position in the same year. He was executive director of Southeast Missouri Legal Services from 1981-97.

Legacy
In 1972, the Hearnes Center on the University of Missouri campus in Columbia, Missouri was named in honor of the outgoing governor.

In 2005, Warren and Betty Hearnes were awarded the Edwin P. Hubble Medal of Initiative during the Charleston Dogwood-Azalea Festival. The medal was presented by a delegation of citizens from Marshfield, Missouri. The medal is the city of Marshfield's highest honor and is named for a native son. In 2008 the Hearnes endorsed the campaign of Hillary Clinton for the Democratic presidential nomination.

In December 2016, Highway 249 near MSSU between the I-44 and 49 interchange and East Zora is known as the Governor Warren E. Hearnes Memorial Highway.

Death
Hearnes died August 16, 2009. He is buried in IOOF Cemetery in Charleston, Missouri along with his daughter, Lynn Cooper Hearnes, who was killed in an auto accident on December 31, 2009 only a few months after the death of her father.

 him with goodness and mercy. Even though Arnie fell short of the glory of God on a regular basis, as we all do, His Father in heaven loved him with an everlasting love. Jesus Christ had paid for every one of his sins with his very life, the Holy Spirit was at work in all the circumstances of his life to work things out for his eternal good.It’s comforting to know that Arnie was baptized into the Name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, and it’s even more comforting to know that God is faithful to the promises He made to him in that baptism. This is the only good news that really matters from one generation to the other- that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto Himself. By living the perfect life none of us can even get close to living, by suffering all that we should have suffered, by offering up a sacrifice to end all required sacrifices, by rising up again on the third day and by ascending into heaven on the 40th day and by sending His Holy Spirit in superabundant fashion on the 50th day, he works in us a heart that is not afraid, he works in our life in such a way that we do hide in his shelter, in such a way that we are concealed under the cover of his tent, in such a way that we do spend our days waiting for the Lord, we do spend our days looking upon the goodness of the Lord, we do spend our days doing all things he is asking us to do through the strength of our Lord.Perhaps you have heard the story of a Christian woman who was making funeral arrangements with her pastor, and when they were almost done, she had one more request. She asked if she could get buried with a dinner fork in her hand. When the pastor asked why, she indicated that all her life, at church suppers and at all kinds of meals, whenever they said to her that she should keep her fork, she knew the best was yet to come. Dessert was coming! So also as we lay yet one more of our fellow travelers to rest, we do so knowing that the good old days have not passed us by, rather the really best days are yet to come. Paul wrote that he desired to depart and Christ which is far better. And again, for me to live is Christ and to die is gain.

Years ago, I invited Arnie to join a few men and me for early morning coffee, a fair amount of talking smart, and a Bible discussion. For a time we called ourselves “Men of Integrity” and we would encourage each other to live our lives knowing that we were saved by through faith alone in Jesus Christ, and also knowing that true faith never came alone. It always came with good works, prepared in advance by God for us to carry out. After one or more wives told us that their husbands didn’t feel like they qualified to meet with a group called Men of Integrity, we decided on a new name. Our new name was and is to this day, “Men Who Need Help.”The fact is that all of us, men, women, and children alike, need God’s help to face every one of our enemies in every one of our days. The last enemy to be faced is death itself. It looks as though that enemy has gotten the best of Arnie, but we lay him to rest in these days knowing that death will not have the final word, our resurrected Lord and Savior will have the final word. Two lessons to learn again, in closing, in answer to the question, Whom shall I fear? Lesson #1 – no need to fear the old sinful nature, no need to fear this sinful world, no need to fear the devil and all of his nasty demons, no need to fear the valley of the shadow of death itself, all of these enemies have been soundly defeated by our Lord Jesus Christ. Praise and honor and blessing to Him!Lesson #2 – Whom shall I fear? The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Or as Jesus warned, “ Do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.” The death of every loved one is a terrific inventory to take inventory of our own thoughts, our words, our actions, our habits, our lifestyle. And as we take inventory, we find that we have fallen way short of fearing, loving, trusting God above all things. And as we find again and again that we have fallen way short, we get down on our knees, we cry out for mercy, and mercy is ours. We cry out for yet one more chance, one more new beginning, and praise be to God, a one more chance / a new beginning is ours!There’s something dark and dreary and even worse about caskets and cremation and cemeteries, but as people of faith, we take all of this in, and at the end of the day, we say with the Psalmist, The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?<|endoftext|>The M6-C Cervical Disk Prosthesis: First Clinical Experience in 33 Patients.
Retrospective study. To determine the short-term clinical succesrate of the M6-C cervical disk prosthesis in primary and secondary surgery. Cervical disk arthroplasty (CDA) provides an alternative to anterior cervical decompression and fusion for the treatment of spondylotic radiculopathy or myelopathy. The prevention of adjacent segment disease (ASD), a possible complication of anterior cervical decompression and fusion, is its most cited--although unproven--benefit. Unlike older arthroplasty devices that rely on a ball-and-socket-type design, the M6-C cervical disk prosthesis represents a new generation of unconstrained implants, developed to achieve better restoration of natural segmental biomechanics. This device should therefore optimize clinical performance of CDA and reduce ASD. All patients had preoperative computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging and postoperative x-rays. Clinical outcome was assessed using the Neck Disability Index, a Visual Analog Scale, and the SF-36 questionnaire. Patients were asked about overall satisfaction and whether they would have the surgery again. Thirty-three patients were evaluated 17.1 months after surgery, on average. Nine patients had a history of cervical interventions. Results for Neck Disability Index, Visual Analog Scale, and SF-36 were significantly better among patients who had undergone primary surgery. In this group, 87.5% of patients reported a good or excellent result and 91.7% would have the procedure again. In contrast, all 4 device-related complications occurred in the small group of patients who had secondary surgery. The M6-C prosthesis appears to be a valuable addition to the CDA armatorium. It generates very good results in patients undergoing primary surgery, although its use in secondary surgery should be avoided. Longer follow-up is needed to determine to what measure this device can prevent ASD.<|endoftext|>Traumatic amputation of the upper limb: replantation of the arm.
From 1970 to 1985, 13 patients were treated as a result of an upper limb traumatic sub-amputation. Three of them were younger than 15 years and another one was only 3 years old at the time of the trauma. All the elements involved in the treatment of the lesions are described. When it was possible, an end-to-end anastomosis was used for the repair of arteries and veins. Otherwise, when the loss of tissue was marked, a saphenous vein graft was used. The fracture was treated, when possible, with an intramedullary fixation, surely less traumatizing for soft tissues than a plate. The repair of the nerve was at times simultaneous at other times delayed. The followup has shown a good functional restoration of the limb and of the joints affected by the trauma and a normal development of the patients in terms of age.<|endoftext|>This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. The goal of this project is to identify bacteria expressing soluble fluorescent protein after moleulcar evolution to improve protein folding and solubility for protein structure determination. Proteins whose structure is of interest will be genetically fused to a modified EGFP reporter and subjected to molecular evolution by DNA shuffling and error prone PCR. The resulting library will be transfeected into bacteria and expressed. Because the proper folding of the fusion construct is required for EGFP fluorescence, bacteria expressing soluble protein will be bright. Sorted bacteria are then cloned to isolate single variants of properly folded protein for crystallographic studies.<|endoftext|>Hochschule für Musik und Theater

But, he added, “I did not expect this circus. I did not expect this charge against my name. I expected people to do anything, but not this.”

“I did not expect this circus. I did not expect this charge against my name. I expected people to do anything, but not this.”

And then the words that are so sadly ironic.

Thomas said, “And if by going through this, another nominee in the future, or another American, won’t have to go through it, then so be it [my emphasis]. But I did not expect this treatment. And I did not expect to lose my name, my reputation, my integrity to do public service.”

Tragically, we have not learned our lessons. We have not improved our conduct. We have not become more civil.

Healing, Restoring, Awakening

Quite the contrary.

Through the tidal wave of social media and endless news outlets, through our increasingly divisive politics, we are on the verge of tearing ourselves apart. And if the Thomas hearings could be likened to a “circus,” the Kavanaugh hearings can be likened to gladiatorial combat, with the bloodthirsty crowds cheering on. What in the world is coming next?

BTG2/TIS21/PC3 protein is involved in the regulation of G1/S transition of the cell cycle by inhibiting pRb function, suggesting that BTG2/TIS21/PC3 regulation is critical for normal cell growth and proliferation. To understand the regulatory mechanisms for the expression of BTG2/TIS21/PC3 we cloned the human gene. Potential binding sites for several transcription factors were identified in the 5'-flanking region of the gene. Transient expression assays with BTG2/TIS21/PC3 promoter deletions and electrophoretic mobility shift analysis identified a major wild-type p53 response element located -74 to -122 relative to the start codon. This genomic fragment was sufficient to constitute a promoter element in the presence of p53. The BTG2/TIS21/PC3 gene is an antiproliferative gene which maps within a chromosomal segment (1q32) frequently altered in breast adenocarcinomas. However, no mutations of BTG2/TIS21/PC3 were detected in breast cancer cells, suggesting that the inactivation of this gene is not a frequent genetic event during breast carcinogenesis.<|endoftext|>I am an ordinary woman, who has undergone an extraordinary spiritual awakening.

I didn’t start off with plans of being a spiritual teacher. Oh no, quite to the contrary!

In fact, I had my life all mapped out, including my “must achieve to-do life right” and spirituality was nowhere on my list. I believed that to be recognized and rewarded for doing my life right, I needed to do many things, have tons of stuff, and be, well, perfect. Not spiritual!

Believe me, I had it all figured out, and I was diligently checking things off my long To-Do list: A husband, 3 kids, money, inside dog, outside cat, money, house in the burbs, vacation home in the mountains, SUV, money, career, lots of friends, money, I was hot & skinny, a member of the PTA, USTA tennis player, room-mom at my kids’ schools, on the neighborhood HOA Board, just to name a few of my overachieving antics…whew!

In the fall of 2002, my perfect life began to spiral out of my control. First, my mom died, then my teenage daughter started contemplating suicide, my marriage was on the rocks, my best friends abandoned me, my career changed, our money vanished when the real estate market crashed, and well, my to-do list wasn’t getting done. Grieving the “death” of many of the important things I had achieved was sucking the life out of me. I felt helpless, hopeless, desperate and depressed…not my idea of perfect! Ouch!

In my desperation, I turned to shopping, margaritas, crystals, self-help books, workshops, drumming, tarot readings, meditation, spirituality, energy healing, chanting, angels, Shamanism, Buddhism, mysticism, quantum physics, therapy, psychic readings, and many, many other things…did I mention margaritas? I did all this in search for relief from the pain of feeling like a worthless failure.

Little did I know, God was dragging me, skinny-ass and all, into what is known as the Dark Night of the Soul where I had to face my inner demons.

At the end of the five darkest years of my life, I faced my ego, diligently embraced my shadows, got what the power of projections is about, understood my co-dependency and attachments, became aware of my identities, sifted through my beliefs, and prayed for God to have mercy on my wretched soul.

During this diligent searching I became aware that the only reason I was suffering was because I believed I wasn’t living up to who I “thought” the world expected me to be. I discovered I was living my life in total fear of doing it wrong, which meant—thanks to my Christian upbringing—that I was destined to receive a one-way ticket to that hot destination we call hell…Talk about living in a pressure cooker!

Then, came the miracle of all miracles:I had an up-close encounter with Source/God/Spirit, or whatever you want to call “It,” and I started to awaken to the Truth: that what I truly Am is One with God, and God is pure Love.

I + God = One Love! Nothing needed to be added, tucked, nipped, surgically removed, acquired, or changed about me.

I am as God created me: perfect, whole, and accomplished.

And I was shown another secret: so is everyone else — including you!!!

A profound encounter with God, in August 2007, left me 100% committed to live my life from the Truth I awakened to. It seemed quite simple that if I am love, then all I must do is just be loving, right? Well, it wasn’t quite so easy.

You see, the previous 5 years, I was becoming aware of my dark, fear-based side, and all the beliefs that supported my human-ego’s structure.

Now that I experienced, first hand, my light and loving side, I had to choose, situation by situation, which side of me was going to show up.

And believe me, there was no shortage of opportunities to practice being my God-Self or my ego-self. Empowered with the awareness of my True Essence, my life began to change, through divorce, a new career, new friends, and a drastic change in lifestyle. Then came the big tests: I fell in love, again, as my youngest son became a drug addict and my middle son was struggling to graduate from high school. Everything I learned the previous 5 years was put to the test: Could I choose to Shift from my ego’s fears and Lift my vibration to the Presence of Love?

Believe me, knowing I am Love and being Loving—always—are two completely different animals!

My work is simply this: to help you become aware that you have two sides. There is the innate you, the whole and complete expression of the very Energy of Love that created you, which is fully endowed with all the knowing and beliefs that support your Truth and is often called Soul or Spirit. This side of you is fulfilled when you express your innate gifts for in sharing them with the world your authentic, creative, and peaceful self— your Spirit—is free to be: Authentically YOU!

You experience the strength of this Truth by fully knowing that nothing, and no one, need ever validate or complete you. This side of you is Loving, Kind, Gentle, Defenseless, Generous, Patient, Compassionate, Happy and rests in a state of pure joy and peace that is indescribable. This side of you knows and trusts your Oneness with God and with your fellow human beings.

Then, there is your other side, which we call our human-ego, and it’s made up of beliefs you learned as you innocently became conditioned to seek approval from the outside world. The ego operates as a protective mask/facade, which acts as a cover/shield/veil over your Authentic Self. This “disconnect” from your God Self keeps you from remembering your Truth by driving you to seek for more, more, more, outside of you–in the world–to complete you, make you feel good, feel loved, and feel worthy.

The human-ego side of you perpet

 10 or 15 years, the writer has been the dominant force in comic books," he said.

But that is unfair, because "it just implies that the writer is the main creative force in the comic book, which is totally untrue, because it should be both", he adds.

Adlard's Gallic invasion has started with a contribution to a book marking the 60th anniversary of his "favourite all-time character", legendary French hero Asterix.

He credits René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo - who created the Gaulish warrior and beefy sidekick Obelix - with fuelling his love for French comic books.

image copyright Charlie Adlard image caption Drawing his "all-time favourite" cartoon character Asterix has been a highlight

His next creation, also written in French, is "fun horror/thriller" Vampire State Building, with digitally inked art marking a departure from the Walking Dead's traditional pen and ink style.

"More short-sighted people would probably see it as me not being particularly imaginative and going from a bunch of zombies to a bunch of vampires."

But he said the contemporary setting and emphasis on action over horror appealed.

Vampire State Building is planned as a two-book story, with the second part due out in France in the autumn.

Adlard has also been taken "out of his comfort zone" on his upcoming collaboration with Shrewsbury-based 2000AD writer Robbie Morrison.

Provisionally titled Heretic, it will feature Cornelius Agrippa, a real-life character from the Spanish Inquisition era in a fictional, supernatural setting.

Adlard said the story, a "sort of thriller in the vein of something like In the Name of the Rose", centred around the German mystic and his protégé.

"It's something I've never done before.

"It excites me because I've never done historical drama."

image copyright Charlie Adlard image caption His new venture, Vampire State Building, right, has a different look to his acclaimed comic drawings

Adlard is also considering working on a biographical story and mulling a number of other offers.

While he won't be changing his art style, he plans to experiment more with his materials.

He said Heretic would probably be drawn digitally, like Vampire State, but would make more use of pencil-tools "to try and roughen it up, make it more textural".

But he may return to pen and paper, relying less on his ruler to make his "lines sort of shaky".

And although he confessed a love for drawing characters such as Negan, he vowed that the Walking Dead comics, unlike their namesake, would not come back to life.

"We don't want to short-change the fans" he said.

"It just feels really disingenuous to do something like that.<|endoftext|>Many commercial compositions containing moisture curable silylated polymers are known, and have many commercial applications. For example, silylated polyurethanes are useful as coatings, adhesives, sealants and industrial elastomeric goods.
Silylated polyurethanes are typically prepared by reacting an isocyanate-containing prepolymer with an aminosilane; yielding products having generally high viscosity, and as a consequence, difficult processability. This high viscosity can be related to hydrogen bonding due to the presence of urea and urethane groups, so current solutions have focused on decreasing/eliminating the urethane/urea content in these silylated polyurethanes.
In the art, several methods have been described for decreasing/eliminating the urethane/urea content in silylated polyurethanes.
For example, long chain-polyether polyols can be used for preparing the polyurethane. However, the method requires polyether polyols with a high functionality and a low level of unsaturation and polydispersity and not all the hydrogen bond density can be eliminated.
Another example involves the reaction of OH-functional prepolymer with an isocyanatosilane, yielding an urea-free polyurethane. However, isocyanatosilanes may be objectionable from a toxicological standpoint. Additionally, raw material availability and price are often an issue.
Another example involves the partial or complete allophanatization and/or biuretization of the urethane/urea groups with mono-isocyanates, which sterically hinder hydrogen bond formation. This method however, requires an additional synthetic step after preparation of the silylated polyurethane, which increases production costs. In addition, monoisocyanates have environmental, health and safety issues.
Therefore, there remains a need for silylated polyurethanes and processes to prepare said polyurethanes that overcome one or more of the aforementioned issues. It is an object of the present invention to overcome one or more of the aforementioned issues.<|endoftext|>Limited Edition - Oodle Doodle

The present invention relates to a lock, and more particularly to a gun lock that can prevent a gun from being discharged accidentally.
2. Description of Related Art
A gun is regarded as a lawful self-defense weapon in many countries. People can apply for a license to own a gun for self-defense in a lawful way. A gun sometimes can protect you from being held up or any other situations in which you may be hurt. Even though acquiring a gun is simple in many countries, how to use it safely is a serious problem because guns are lethal weapons. Two unfortunate situations are frequently seen.
1. Some teenagers steal guns from their parents to show off to his contemporaries or even to fight. Many children lose their lives like this every year.
2. Some people just collect guns. However, accidental discharge of a loaded gun is always a possibility when the gun is being handled or cleaned.
The present invention has arisen to mitigate and/or obviate the disadvantages.
In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, a gun lock includes a key operated lock mounted in the trigger guard of a gun to prevent the gun from discharging, and a metal rod is inserted in the barrel of the gun to prevent the bullet from moving into the chamber. The key operated lock and the metal rod are connected by a cable and a connecting block. The free end of the cable forms multiple ratchets that can be inserted into the key operated lock to hold the gun lock in place.
Further benefits and advantages of the present invention will become apparent after a careful reading of the detailed description with appropriate reference to the accompanying drawings.<|endoftext|>O cantor Virgul, que se destacou na banda Da Weasel, foi ontem de madrugada detido após ter agredido um militar da GNR à cotovelada nas imediações de uma discoteca na zona de Vilamoura, no Algarve.

Foi uma madrugada de diversão entre amigos mas que acabou por levar Virgul até ao tribunal de Loulé. O cantor seguia como passageiro num automóvel Porsche, que tinha estado a fazer peões no estacionamento da discoteca Bliss, em Vilamoura, quando os militares da GNR lhe deram ordem de paragem.

O condutor da viatura acatou a ordem de paragem dos GNR e os vários ocupantes saíram normalmente do carro. No entanto, já no exterior, Virgul começou a exaltar-se e começou a injuriar os militares.

Os elementos do Grupo de Intervenção da Ordem Pública da GNR foram então chamados ao local, mas quando um deles se preparava para fazer uma revista ao músico,

joint. Thus ${\mathcal{Q}}'  :=  (Q_{j_1},\dots,Q_{j_s})$ is an $s$-segmentation of $P$.

The lemma has the following consequence which we will use frequently below.

\[cor:split-minimal\] Let $H$ be a digraph and let ${\mathcal{Q}}^*$ be a linkage in $H$ and let ${\mathcal{Q}}\subseteq {\mathcal{Q}}^*$ be a linkage of order $q$. Let $P\subseteq H$ be a path intersecting every path in ${\mathcal{Q}}$. Let $c\geq 0$ be such that for every edge $e\in E(P)-E({\mathcal{Q}}^*)$ there are no $c$ pairwise vertex disjoint paths in $H-e$ from $P_1$ to $P_2$, where $P = P_1eP_2$. For all $s,
  r\geq 0$, if $q\geq (r+c)\cdot s$ then

1.  there is an $s$-segmentation ${\mathcal{Q}}'\subseteq {\mathcal{Q}}$ of $P$ with respect to ${\mathcal{Q}}^*$ or

2.  a $2$-split $\big( (P_1, P_2), {\mathcal{Q}}''\big)$ of $(P, {\mathcal{Q}})$ of order $r$ with respect to ${\mathcal{Q}}^*$.

By Lemma \[lem:split-or-segment-path\], there is a $s$-segmentation of $P$ or an $(r+c)$-splittable edge $e\in E(P)-E({\mathcal{Q}}^*)$. In the second case, let $P = P_1eP_2$ and let ${\mathcal{Q}}' \subseteq {\mathcal{Q}}$ of order $(r+c)$ witnessing that $e$ is $(r+c)$-splittable. Thus, every path in ${\mathcal{Q}}'$ intersects $P_1$ and $P_2$. As there are at most $c$ disjoint paths from $P_1$ to $P_2$ in $H-e$, at most $c$ of the paths in ${\mathcal{Q}}'$ hit $P_1$ before they hit $P_2$. Hence, there is a subset ${\mathcal{Q}}''\subseteq {\mathcal{Q}}'$ of order $r$ such that for all $Q\in {\mathcal{Q}}''$ the last vertex of $V(P_2\cap Q)$ occurs before the first vertex of $V(P_1\cap Q)$. Hence, $\big((P_1,
  P_2), {\mathcal{Q}}''\big)$ is a $2$-split of $(P, {\mathcal{Q}})$ of order $r$.

We will mostly apply the previous lemma in a case where $H\subseteq G$ is a subgraph induced by two linkages ${\mathcal{P}}$ and ${\mathcal{Q}}$, and $P\in {\mathcal{P}}$.

We now present one of our main constructions showing that for every $x, y, q$ every web of high enough order either contains an $x$-segmentation of order $q$ or a $y$-split of order $q$. This construction will again be used in Section \[sec:cylindrical-grids\] below. We first refine the definition of webs from Section \[sec:bramble\]. The difference between the webs (with avoidance $0$) used in Section \[sec:bramble\] and the webs with linkedness $c$ defined here is that we no longer require that in a web $({\mathcal{P}}, {\mathcal{Q}})$, ${\mathcal{P}}$ is ${\mathcal{Q}}$-minimal. Instead we require that in every path $P$, if we split $P$ at an edge $e$, i.e. $P = P_1eP_2$, then there are at most $c$ paths from $P_1$ to $P_2$ in ${\mathcal{P}}\cup {\mathcal{Q}}$. This is necessary as in the various constructions below, minimality will not be preserved but this forward path property is preserved. We give a formal definition now.

\[def:web-linkedness\] Let $p,q, c \geq 0$ be integers and let ${\mathcal{Q}}^*$ be a linkage. A *$(p,q)$-web with linkedness $c$ with respect to ${\mathcal{Q}}^*$* in a digraph $G$ consists of two linkages $\mathcal{P}=\{P_1,\dots,P_p\}$ and $\mathcal{Q}=\{Q_1,\dots,Q_q\} \subseteq {\mathcal{Q}}^*$ such that

1.  $\mathcal{Q}$ is a $C{-}D$ linkage for two distinct vertex sets $C,D \subseteq V(G)$ and $\mathcal{P}$ is an $A{-}B$ linkage for two distinct vertex sets $A,B \subseteq V(G)$,

2.  for $1 \leq i \leq q$, $Q_i$ intersects every path $\mathcal{P}\in{\mathcal{P}}$,

3.  for every $P\in {\mathcal{P}}$ and every edge $e\in E(P)\setminus
        E({\mathcal{Q}}^*)$ there are at most $c$ disjoint paths from $P_1$ to $P_2$ in ${\mathcal{P}}\cup {\mathcal{Q}}$ where $P_1, P_2$ are the subpaths of $P$ such that $P=P_1eP_2$.

The set $C\cap V({\mathcal{Q}})$ is called the *top* of the web, denoted ${\textit{top}}\big( ({\mathcal{P}},
  {\mathcal{Q}}) \big)$, and $D\cap V({\mathcal{Q}})$ is the *bottom* ${\textit{bot}}\big( ({\mathcal{P}},
  {\mathcal{Q}}) \big)$. The web $({\mathcal{P}}, {\mathcal{Q}})$ is *well linked* if $C\cup D$ is well linked.

Note that every $(p,q)$-web with avoidance $0$ is a $(p,q)$-web with linkedness $p$.

\[lem:split-or-segment\] For all $p,q,r,s, c\geq 0$ and all $x, y\geq 0$ with $p\geq x$ there is a number $q' := \big(p\cdot q\cdot (q+c)\big)^{2^{(x-1)y+1}}$ such that if $G$ contains a $(p, q')$-web ${\mathcal{W}}:=  ({\mathcal{P}}, {\mathcal{Q}})$ with linkedness $c$, then $G$ contains a $y$-split $({\mathcal{P}}', {\mathcal{Q}}')$ of $({\mathcal{P}}, {\mathcal{Q}})$ of order $q$ or an $x$-segmentation $({\mathcal{P}}', {\mathcal{Q}}')$ of $({\mathcal{P}}, {\mathcal{Q}})$ of order $q$. Furthermore, if ${\mathcal{W}}$ is well linked then so is $({\mathcal{P}}',
  {\mathcal{Q}}')$.

We set $q' := \big(p\cdot q\cdot (q+c)\big)^{2^{(x-1)y+1}}$. We will provide an algorithmic proof of the lemma. Fix ${\mathcal{Q}}^*
  := {\mathcal{Q}}$ for the rest of the proof. All applications of Corollary \[cor:split-minimal\] will be with respect to this original linkage ${\mathcal{Q}}^*$.

For all $0\leq i\leq (x-1)y+1$ we define $q_i := \big(p\cdot q\cdot
  (q+c)\big)^{2^{(x-1)y+1-i}}$. Let $({\mathcal{P}},{\mathcal{Q}})$ be a $(p, q_0)$-web. For $0\leq i\leq
  (x-1)y+1$ we will construct a sequence ${\mathcal{M}}_i := ({\mathcal{P}}^i, {\mathcal{Q}}^i, {\ensuremath{\mathcal{S}}_{\textit{seg}}}^i, {\ensuremath{\mathcal{S}}_{\textit{split}}}^i)$, where ${\mathcal{P}}^i,
  {\mathcal{Q}}^i, {\ensuremath{\mathcal{S}}_{\textit{seg}}}^i, {\ensuremath{\mathcal{S}}_{\textit{split}}}^i$ are linkages of order $p,
  q_i, x_i$ and $y_i$ respectively and such that ${\mathcal{Q}}^i\subseteq{\mathcal{Q}}^*$ is an $x_i$-segmentation of ${\ensuremath{\mathcal{S}}_{\textit{seg}}}^i$ and $({\ensuremath{\mathcal{S}}_{\textit{split}}}, {\mathcal{Q}}^i)$ is a $y_i$-split of $({\mathcal{P}}, {\mathcal{Q}})$. Recall that in particular this means that the paths in ${\ensuremath{\mathcal{S}}_{\textit{split}}}$ are the subpaths of a single path in ${\mathcal{P}}$ split at edges $e\in E(P)\setminus E({\mathcal{Q}}^*)$.

We first set ${\mathcal{M}}_

To obtain reliable data on the epidemiology of arteriosclerosis and the comorbidities in patients with hypertension (HP), coronary heart disease (CHD), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and stroke, we evaluated the clinical significance of pulse wave velocity (PWV) as an indicator of arteriosclerosis and its comorbidities in Chinese patients. A total of 910 subjects, including 748 Chinese patients with one or more cardiovascular risk factors (80.2% male, mean age 73.69+/-5.03 years) and 162 healthy volunteers (78.4% male, mean age 73.60+/-5.32 years) were recruited into the study. PWV was measured in 910 subjects, and large artery arteriosclerosis was defined as PWV >or=12 m/s. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors associated with arteriosclerosis. The prevalence of large artery arteriosclerosis in the patients overall was 67.4%, and the prevalence was higher in patients with than in those without HP (63.3% vs. 34.0%; odds ratio [OR]: 3.451), T2DM (24.8% vs. 11.1%; OR: 2.854), CHD (56.1% vs. 45.1%; OR: 1.246) and stroke (26.6% vs. 19.2%; OR: 1.236), but the OR values of CHD and stroke did not differ significantly (p>0.05). After multiple logistic regression analysis, female sex, older age, HP and T2DM were risk factors for large artery arteriosclerosis. In conclusion, PWV can be used as a routine measurement to scan arteriosclerosis in patients with HP or T2DM.<|endoftext|>// Copyright 2013 The Go Authors. All rights reserved.

 state, and show everybody – ’cause again, your name’s on that test. So, it’s not my name, it’s your name. So everyone looks at you and said, ‘Look at this person, how smart they are. Look at this person – that means they struggled here. So do your best. It’s a reflection of you, your parents, your teacher, your principal, your school – it’s everyone.” Now, there’s too much on the line. I know what the principal is trying to do for the kids, and I know what he’s trying to do for his school. I’m sure he’s a fine person, but he’s caught in a messed up system – because the tests don’t show “how smart” Don’jae is. To the extent that the test reflects the child, parents, teacher, principal, or school, it’s a rather small and imprecise reflection, and it shouldn’t be that significant. And we certainly shouldn’t lay that much on a little kid before they spend days being examined with a rather shoddy test. We shouldn’t run a school, district, or state according to the results that little kids generate on these lousy tests.

A ray of hope… at the end of the day, Don’jae explained what he liked about school: learning things you don’t know, like “how to times bigger numbers.” And why would that be worthwhile? Why try hard in school? “So you could get your education and maybe one day you might start your own career, and you might start you own business. Just be yourself and do your own thing, and that’s how you be a student. And listen to the teacher.”

Every year I struggle with the big assemblies we have to acknowledge the test. My current school site has an awards assembly early in the year to recognize the kids that scored proficient or advanced – while their peers who scored lower have to sit and think about the fact that they didn’t do well enough. Jealous much? Embarrassed maybe? Ugh. Then in April, we have our STAR assembly where every grade level (including kinder and first who know nothing about it) make up songs, dances, cheers, and even little skits to “encourage” the school to do their best on the test. I think that encouragement like that is great – the kids get ramped up, they see it as something exciting… until a principal like the one at the Inglewood school takes it to an awful low by putting so much pressure on the students like the world revolves around this one test. Double ugh…
Next year I am moving from teaching kindergarten to teaching 5th grade – a move I am looking forward to tremendously. I fully intend to facilitate the learning of every child in my class based on our state standards – including actual rocket launching. I still remember my 5th grade teacher Mr. Heath who had us all create rockets, bring them to school, and have a whole day devoted to launching our rockets out in the school field, then writing about it. If he were still alive today, I can promise you his students would get a rigorous education where fun and exploration are still the driving component of his lesson planning… and he would deplore the state of education today.

Thanks for your reading and sharing your comments, Cheryl. I’m glad you’ll have a chance to do some meaningful and authentic teaching and learning with your class next year – including the rockets! To be fair, I don’t know for sure what the curriculum looks like outside of this test prep segment we heard – but the idea of wasting time on that is so sad to me. If Oak Creek is like the other PI schools I hear about and read about, I’d wager they do a fair amount of this stuff. I might do a blog post on the tests themselves, using the sample questions. There are too many people willing to promote test scores as policy levers without knowing the poor quality of the tests – maybe they should take a look.

As for those assemblies, wouldn’t it be cute to see skits and songs that promoted school unity, community involvement, character development, etc.? Put that energy to better use! Then I hear about test-day advice: get lots of sleep, a healthy breakfast, drink enough water, etc. And I think to myself, gosh, if those tips help academic performance, why aren’t they being mentioned all year long? If snacks are good for brain function, why don’t we provide snacks all the time? It’s kind of backwards, isn’t it, to put this extra investment into showing what you’ve learned, rather than putting extra effort into learning?

I appreciate your points Cheryl. It helped me look at this post a little different. Personally, I am one who sees potential in every kid. I’m not in education but through my church I spend time getting to know the youth and they open up about their struggles from time to time. Not every one of them is a star athlete or exceptional scholar but through patience I have been able to identify strengths in each them. This has helped me figure out how to appeal to them when teaching and help them realize the potential in their own talents.

I am a parent in a small community here in Southern California. Our schools here are all in the last stages of PI. For this coming year the School Board has voted to lay off 83 teachers, more than 20% of our educators. Our children will be in classes of 40-45 students. They will have subs rotating every 30 days. As a community we are rallying to get this reversed. It is amazing that this can happen to our children. We can’t find a solution against a board that serves their own best interest.

You are so right. We are not teaching our children how to think and how to engage in actually learning, but teaching to the myriad of tests the children in this country need to endure which in reality do NOT really show that they learned anything. Testing in this country is BIG BUSINESS and SHAME ON US. Most educators in Europe are agog at what we put our students through. However, I am sure you are aware of Linda Darling-Hammond and Diane Ravich who are trying to get REAL educational reform begun and not just trying to “bandage” what we have now. We need to totally dismantle what we have and begin anew; we must make children want to learn (but to me, does NOT always mean using technology and the computer) and to see the value in it with emphasis on our minority students as they will become the majority of this nation when they are into adulthood.

I just retired from teaching, and have jumped on the bandwagon of these two to stop the insanity; and to be honest, I don’t see how the approach to the common core standards will rectify this. I do think we should have a national “common core” like most countries do, but they should not be in the hundreds like we tend to do, but be a more manageable number where our students CAN prove they have mastered them in a way that is NOT always a multiple-choice test. If you have not seen the Linda Darling-Hammond’s webinar on this topic that she gave, I think 3 years ago, I would be happy to send it to you.

Thank you for all that you are doing both in and out of the classroom.
PS. I think the title of this article would be an interesting one for this educational reform or at least a book about it when it is done. 🙂

Hopes were still very high that somewhere out there we would find a family or two or a dozen in which a scrap of variant DNA could be traced from one affected individual to all of his or her affected relatives. Step one was to collect families, hundreds of them, the more the better, and encode the information about who had what and who begat whom into pedigree diagrams. To study these pedigrees was to move from knowledge about psychiatric epidemiology over an abstract population toward a vivid portrait of the human cost of mental illness on a real family.

We have gotten away from that kind of work, mainly because the technology to study DNA has advanced at least as swiftly as computer technology. Remember when it cost thousands of dollars to buy a slow, suitcase-sized desktop computer that could do far less than today's disposable cell phone? Genetics has gone through the same sort of evolution. Now that we can afford to comb through the DNA of tens of thousands of individuals, we can no longer afford to conduct detailed interviews with all of them and their family members, the way we once did with the more manageable number of individuals in multigenerational pedigrees. And so, to an old-fashioned family geneticist, psychology and health author Victoria Costello's description of her family tree in her book *A Lethal Inheritance* brings back those simpler times when we were as interested in phenotypes---the nature and varieties of the way an illness presents itself---as we were in genotypes.

Ms. Costello's family tree, as she describes it in the book, appears below, drawn as a pedigree diagram. She devotes chapters to each of the individuals identified by name. Psychiatric geneticists used to study a lot of these diagrams, studded with darkened circles that indicated a mother or daughter or

<Kamion> ah, idn -u manages it
<Kinnison> Morning
<Kinnison> Kamion coerced me into joining here.
<daniels> about time
* Kinnison has said that he'll join the desktop team if (and only if) colin writes lucille
<daniels> writing Lucille would be pretty rad
<Kinnison> fsvo. rad
<Kinnison> :-)
<daniels> heh
<|trey|> What is Lucille?
<|trey|> (link?)
<Kinnison> Never mind
<|trey|> :(
<lifeless> Kinnison: see the bug in cscvs native protocol?
<sabdfl> |trey|: lucille is the tool we are writing that will let us publish ubuntu packages more effectively
<|trey|> hmm  :)
<sabdfl> i don't think Kinnison was talking to you with the "never mind"

* Kamion tries to clean up his last-minute hacks on the cdimage machine
<Kamion> thom: could I have gpg on little, please? signed archives and all that...
<thom> done
<Kamion> ta
<thom> interestingly, while there were way more torrented downloads of PPC for the preview, amd64 is about double for the RC
<azeem> so this means amd64 users reinstall each time they download a new iso
<elmo> duh.. do we want the daily d-i images to still go in?
<elmo> I guess so, but we should add "disable warty daily d-i build" to the final's release TODO list
<Kamion> elmo: right
<Kamion> probably won't need it between now and release, but I haven't quite got a feel for what mdz is going to want me to change
<sabdfl> i suspect it just means that someone in the amd64 community pointed out the rc
<Mithrandir> amd64 people are more likely to be early adopters as well, as it's a fairly new architecture, so you'll get tinkerers who, well, tinker with their machines
<sabdfl> pr0n lovers
<Mithrandir> yeah, and the amd64 is so pr0n loving and heard about the artwork, so...
<Mithrandir> ;P
<sabdfl> anybody know when we can expect to see gfx cards that do >8bit per channel?
<Mithrandir> so you could get true truecolor?
<sabdfl> isn't truecolor 8bits per rg and b?
<sabdfl> we really need more
<Mithrandir> you have 32 bits as well, since most computers are faster at working with 32 bit increments than 24 bits.
<sabdfl> apparently the film industry uses specialised monitors and gfx cards that do 16 bit depth per channel
<Mithrandir> ok
<sabdfl> a hoary question...
<Mithrandir> personally, I don't need more, but then, I'm not making movies. :)
<sabdfl> could we bring the machine up sanely without networking?
<sabdfl> and have services discover networks as they are brought up?
<sabdfl> the pause during dhcp is... irritating
<thom> sabdfl: that is how NetworkManager (and by extension, fedora core 3) works
<Mithrandir> problem with ifplugd (or an equivalent) is broken hardware.
<sabdfl> is this something we could aim for with hoary?
<Mithrandir> oh, you mean just running the dhcp client in the background?
<sabdfl> together with dependency-based init?
<thom> sabdfl: networkmanager is a release goal
<thom> so yeah, we'll be looking at it
<sabdfl> Mithrandir: i think that runs the risk that a service like apache comes up before dhcp has bound to an address
<sabdfl> thom: great, thanks
<Mithrandir> sabdfl: doesn't matter if it listens to 0.0.0.0
<thom> dependency based init would be nice too
<sabdfl> Mithrandir: or 127.0.0.1 for that matter
<Mithrandir> sabdfl: for 127.0.0.1 it matters, since then it only listens on loopback, but if you listen on 0.0.0.0, it'll automatically listen on newly created interfaces.

SNP selection for SNP array design and genotype calling in polyploid species {#s4}
============================================================================

Technically, two platforms have been used for SNP array in polyploid species, Illumina (Dalton-Morgan et al., [@B32]; Vos et al., [@B118]; Clarke et al., [@B24]) and Affymetrix (Bassil et al., [@B10]; Clevenger et al., [@B27]; Pandey et al., [@B87]). Different chemistries and computational algorithms are used for assay and genotype calling between Affymetrix and Illumina SNP arrays, the hybridization principle (complementary base pairing) and captured signal intensity principle (calculation of amount of target DNA and the affinity between target DNA and probes) are alike (LaFramboise, [@B66]).

For SNP marker selection in development of the array, most of the criteria are the same between Illumina and Affymetrix, except for two parameters: (1) sequence length on either side of the SNP (50 bp for Illumina vs. 20 bp for Affymetrix), and (2) evaluation parameters (Illumina Assay Design Tool (ADT) value vs. Affymetrix P-convert value). The general considerations for array SNP selection include SNP depth, SNP types, SNP frequency, additional variations within probe sequence of target SNPs, and probe sequence parameters. Specifically, (1) The average SNP read depth, or single genotype SNP depth is considered as it is related to the accuracy of SNPs called. If the depth is too low, the SNPs could be called due to sequence errors. If the depth is too high, the SNPs may be called from repetitive sequences. Thus, a range of depths for different crop species is recommended (Deulvot et al., [@B34]; Chagné et al., [@B19]; Bianco et al., [@B13]). (2) There are two types of SNPs: transition SNPs such as A/G, T/C, and transversion SNPs such as A/T, C/G, A/C, and T/G. For SNP array development, the transition SNP type is preferred and transversion SNPs, INDELs, or multiple allelic SNPs are typically excluded (Bianco et al., [@B12]; Clarke et al.,
