Q: Css my custom buttons in Mathjax- CkEditor Where should i write the css to edit my buttons in Mathjax ckEditor? I have read the documentation but i can't find a way.
Where are html and css files stored?
My buttons were created in Mathjax.js with this code:
{
  id: 'button1',
  type: 'button',
  button: 'button1',
  label: 'button1',
}

A: I see you gave an ID (button1) to the button with a label (button1). You can apply CSS using the ID this way -
#button1{
     // Your css here
}

But, by default that button will have some CSS applied already. So if you want your CSS to override those CSS, you'll have to link your CSS file after the CSS file of Mathjax. Otherwise, you'll have to use !important to force override the CSS of the button.

Wall Street Reform Bill Debate to Cover Office of Financial Research
Up until now, the proposals for the creation of a reference data utility in the form of the Office of Financial Research have largely passed under the radar during the regulatory reform debates in the US. However, data issues are set to be a key topic of discussion this week with the Office of Financial Research and living wills on the agenda for the regulatory conference on the Wall Street reform bill.
The Office of Financial Research debate is categorised under the headline of "technical expertise" and is due for discussion today. The plan to establish the new office within the Treasury to be staffed with a "highly sophisticated staff of economists, accountants, lawyers, former supervisors, and other specialists to support the council's work by collecting financial data and conducting economic analysis" has, thus far, failed to provoke much in the way of political debate.
However, given his previous criticism of the proposed government funding of the utility, US Republican senator Richard Shelby is sure to raise some issues. He is concerned that the utility will be granted "unprecedented authority, including abilities to obtain virtually any type of data it wants from financial companies, to the level of detail of what you buy on your credit card." Moreover, he feels that the very fact it is aimed at helping Wall Street firms to cut down their data costs with public money is flawed.
If the issue has failed to raise few other questions thus far within political circles, it is likely because of a lack of appreciation of the scale of the challenge facing those charged with setting up such a utility. The same cannot be said of the industry, which has been struggling with reference data challenges and a lack of standardisation for decades. The scepticism with which many in the industry view the utility proposals is in accordance with this experience and a fear that the naivety of the regulatory community may pose a threat to the industry as a whole. The imposition of regulatory defined standards is not considered desirable by many, although the backing of the regulator in helping to increase the usage of current standard formats would be much better received.
For now, the political discussion about the Office of Financial Research remains on its potential to help the regulatory community track systemic risk, rather than its wider impact on the market. As noted by the conference plan: "Through the Office of Financial Research and member agencies the council will collect and analyse data to identify and monitor emerging risks to the economy and make this information public in periodic reports and testimony to Congress every year."
Greater risk transparency is certainly a key focus for the regulators but more consideration should certainly be given to how making this information public will impact the financial services industry. Check back next week to see if any of these issues are raised (odds on they won't be).
A full list of the topics up for debate is available here.

Disparities in minimum wages across the EU
Disparities in minimum wages across the EU - Products Eurostat News
Back Disparities in minimum wages across the EU
Print Disparities in minimum wages across the EU
As of 1 January 2021, 21 out of the 27 Member States of the EU have national minimum wages: only Denmark, Italy, Cyprus, Austria, Finland and Sweden do not.
Monthly minimum wages generally below €700 in east and above €1 500 in northwest of the EU
The 21 EU Member States that have national minimum wages can be divided into three main groups based on their levels in euro.
In January 2021, ten Member States, located in the east of the EU, had minimum wages* below €700 per month: Bulgaria (€332), Hungary (€442), Romania (€458), Latvia (€500), Croatia (€563), Czechia (€579), Estonia (€584), Poland (€614), Slovakia (€623) and Lithuania (€642).
In five other Member States, located mainly in the south of the EU, minimum wages ranged between €700 and just over €1 100 per month: Greece (€758), Portugal (€776), Malta (€785), Slovenia (€1 024) and Spain (€1 108).
In the remaining six Member States, all located in the west and north of the EU, minimum wages were above €1 500 per month: France (€1 555), Germany (€1 614), Belgium (€1 626), the Netherlands (€1 685), Ireland (€1 724) and Luxembourg (€2 202).
For comparison, the federal minimum wage in the United States was €1 024 in January 2021.
The source dataset is available here.
Smaller gaps in minimum wages once price level differences are eliminated
Across the 21 Member States concerned, the highest minimum wage in the EU was 6.6 times higher than the lowest.
However, the disparities in minimum wages across the EU Member States are considerably smaller once price level differences are taken into account: when expressed in purchasing power standard (PPS), minimum wages in Member States with lower price levels become relatively higher and relatively lower in Member States with higher price levels.
By eliminating price differences, minimum wages ranged from 623 PPS per month in Bulgaria to 1 668 PPS in Luxembourg, meaning that the highest minimum wage was 2.7 times higher than the lowest.
Minimum wages above 60% of median gross monthly earnings in France, Portugal, Slovenia and Romania
Minimum wages may also be measured in relative terms, i.e. as proportion of the median earnings**. Based on the last available data from the four-yearly Structure of Earnings Survey, in 2018 minimum wages represented over 60% of the median gross monthly earnings in only four Member States: France (66%), Portugal (64%), Slovenia (62%) and Romania (61%). By contrast, minimum wages were less than half of the median earnings in six Member States: Croatia, Czechia and Latvia (all 49%), Spain (44%), Malta (43%) and Estonia (42%).
Further information is provided in the Statistics Explained article Minimum wage statistics.
* Before any tax and social security contributions are deducted
** Data refer to the gross monthly earnings covering wages and salaries earned by full-time and part-time (in full-time equivalent) employees in the reference month (October 2018 in most countries). They exclude overtime pay and other extra payments and are calculated before any tax and social security contributions are deducted.
Eurostat provides national minimum wages at monthly rates. When the minimum wage is paid for more than 12 months per year (as in Greece, Spain and Portugal, where it is paid for 14 months a year), data have been adjusted to take these payments into account.

Father Kenneth Walker (seatofwisdom.org)
| Jun. 16, 2014
Bishop Calls for 'Love and Forgiveness' in Wake of Priest Slaying
Young Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter Father Kenneth Walker said to have 'fulfilled his heart's desire in becoming a priest.'
KATHLEEN NAAB
PHOENIX — As his diocese mourns the shooting death of a 28-year-old priest, the bishop of Phoenix says that the only response to violence is "always love and forgiveness."
Bishop Thomas Olmsted said this on EWTN News Nightly in response to questions regarding the June 11 murder of Father Kenneth Walker, a priest ordained only two years ago for the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter.
Father Walker served as assistant priest at Mater Misericordiae Parish in Phoenix. He and his Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter confrere, Father Joseph Terra, 56, the pastor, were attacked late Wednesday evening in what might have been an attempted robbery. Phoenix police said they believe Father Terra was attacked first and that Father Walker tried to intervene and was shot. He died later at the hospital.
A solemn high requiem Mass will be offered for the repose of Father Walker's soul at 10am Monday, June 16, at St. Catherine of Siena Parish in Phoenix.
The details of the injuries sustained by Father Terra have not been released. On Sunday, Church officials said that he had been moved the previous night from an intensive care unit and was expected to make a full recover but would need time to recuperate, CBS5AZ.com reported. Father Terra made the 911 call that brought law enforcement to the rectory.
There was a reward offered for witnesses to come forward with more information. Father Walker's car was stolen but later found abandoned.
On June 16, CBS5AZ.com reported that a 54-year-old homeless ex-convict was arrested on charges for Father's Walker's death on June 15.
"We live in a very violent society, sadly," Bishop Olmsted said.
Consolation in Christ
Recognizing there might be a temptation to anger, the bishop insisted that the response to the violence must be as "people of great faith and especially of confidence that Christ is with us at this time," he said.
Father Fred Adamson, vicar general of the Phoenix Diocese, said at a Thursday press conference that Father Terra was reportedly able to give last rites to Father Walker, despite his own injuries.
This brings a "great deal of comfort and consolation to us as Catholics, that [Father Terra] was able to extend that in his own suffering," the priest said.
Bishop Olmstead spoke also of that consolation when he reflected on how the Catholic community must respond to such an incident.
"The first thing we do is that we pray for one another; we pray for them especially. But the second thing is, I think, we remind ourselves that our faith prepares us for every circumstance and that Jesus is always with us; and that we believe not only in the dignity of every person, but in the destiny of every person; we are created with an eternal destiny.
"And death for us who have been baptized into Christ, into his death and resurrection, means that death is really a doorway into eternal life. So we pray with great hope, and there's a great consolation that comes with that — even as our hearts really mourn for the loss of Father Walker and the great injuries done to Father Terra."
Kenneth Walker was ordained a priest on May 19, 2012, with four other deacons of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter (FSSP). The fraternity was established in 1988 by Pope John Paul II and is dedicated to offering the traditional Latin Mass and sacraments according to the liturgical books of 1962. There are just over 400 priests in the fraternity, according to the order's website.
Father Walker's sister, Sasha Keyes, told the Register that her brother "fulfilled his heart's desire in becoming a priest."
She remembered her younger brother as living always "in the pursuit of more knowledge."
"He wanted so much to know more," Keyes said. "He loved Latin and loved philosophy and logic. Basically, he loved being a priest. Every time I saw him, he would always be telling me, 'I'm so happy I'm a priest.'"
"He was a brilliant young man," she said, adding that he "was always learning more," from science to photography. "It didn't seem to matter what the subject was; he wanted to learn it," she said, chuckling.
Keyes mentioned the joy the family is experiencing through their tears: "I think all of us are able to smile because we know that he is in heaven at this point. He had last rites, and it gives us so much peace knowing that he was able to have those special graces."
Funds are being raised to aid his large family in traveling to the funeral, which will be held in Kansas, where his parents now live. Keyes said relatives would need to travel from as far away as New York and Alaska.
Bishop Olmsted spoke about the tragedy from the U.S. bishops' spring meeting in New Orleans.
"We all have to band together and not lose our hope in God's presence with us; and that he is more strong than even death itself," he said.
The prelate noted his concern for the parishioners of Mater Misericordiae Parish, saying the faithful of the Latin Mass parish "love their priests very much."
"I am also concerned for our brother priests," Bishop Olmsted added. "We are all shaken by something like this, and so we are concerned about safety, I suppose. And when one of your brother priests dies, it is just very deeply moving. It touches a very deep level. I think we pray for one another, that this communion that binds us together in the love of Christ will be deepened by this and will offer us much consolation."
Kathleen Naab writes from Houston, where she covers news of the Church as a coordinator for Zenit News Service.

I'll see what I can do, but I'm going on 'vacation' for a week starting tomorrow. I'll be off the grid.
If it replaces the drivers in I1, do you use a modified inf to support the other non-4 GPUs?
No, check out the .inf files yourself. The HWIDs in both are exact duplicates, with no additional HWIDs added.
I uploaded the G_B 8.08a testpack.
I'll be gone in 12-hrs. See you all when I get back.
No more posts from me until then.
Isn't the current level 14.36?
Yet Another Reason to NOT bother the pack developers about fresh releases. They know full well when things come out. Waiting a week or more hurts no one and prevents the premature release of packs with 'withdrawn' drivers.
and i have a present waiting for you too... did you see it?
Yes, and you got mail!
Acer 5315: Not installed drivers version 14.36.1.4977! Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator Driver for WindowsXP 14.36.2.4980 8/27/2008 works fine! and 14.35 works fine too!
On same other PCs trubles too with I1\ 06/27/2008,6.14.10.4964 - on the I1\ 12/19/2007,6.14.10.4906 works fine!
v14.36.2.4980 is now official, title updated.
OK, once I get G_A rc4 out the door, I'll be all over G_B updates!


Overview of Stellar Evolution - Stars shine as a result of nuclear reactions deep in their interior. As a star's nuclear energy supplies are used up, it evolves toward an end state that depends on its mass.
In this section we focus on the youth and middle age of stars. Chandra and other X-ray telescopes focus on the high-energy action of this drama - the turbulent, multimillion degree outer atmospheres and gale-force outflows of gas from hot, luminous stars.
The stellar end game inevitably produces dense, collapsed stars - white dwarf, neutron stars, and black holes - where gravity is strong and conditions are often violent. X-ray telescopes are especially suited to explore these objects, so separate sections are devoted to them.
Young Stars and Star Clusters - Young stars are much brighter in X-rays than middle-aged stars such as the sun. Stars do not form in isolation, but in clusters which can have thousands of members, so most young stars are found in clusters.
Clusters of young stars are irregularly shaped and are called open clusters, to distinguish them from globular clusters, spherically shaped clusters of very old stars.
Normal Stars - Normal, middle-aged stars such as our sun have hot, X-ray- emitting outer atmospheres, or coronas. X-ray observations have proven to be a useful tracer for studying how the turbulent heating near the surface of stars depends on the age, rotation and type of the star, and how the flaring activity of stars changes as stars evolve.
Binary Star Systems - The evolution of stars can be changed dramatically if they are in a close binary system. These changes depend on how close the stars are to one another, and how massive the stars are. Some of the strongest X-ray sources in our galaxy are close binary systems containing neutron stars and black holes.

Fouling Our Own Nest
greenspun.com : LUSENET : Unk's Troll-free Private Saloon : One Thread
uly 4, 2002
By BOB HERBERT
Do you remember the character Pig-Pen in the "Peanuts" cartoons? He was always covered with dirt and grime. He was cute, but he was a walking sludge heap, filthy and proud of it. He once told Charlie Brown, "I have affixed to me the dirt and dust of countless ages. Who am I to disturb history?"
For me, Pig-Pen's attitude embodies President Bush's approach to the environment. We've been trashing, soiling, even destroying the wonders of nature for countless ages. Why stop now? Who is Mr. Bush to step in and curb this venerable orgy of pollution, this grand tradition of fouling our own nest?
Oh, the skies may once have been clear and the waters sparkling and clean. But you can't have that and progress, too. Can you?
This week we learned that the Bush administration plans to cut funding for the cleanup of 33 toxic waste sites in 18 states. As The Times's Katharine Seelye reported, this means "that work is likely to grind to a halt on some of the most seriously polluted sites in the country."
The cuts were ordered because the Superfund toxic waste cleanup program is running out of money. Rather than showing the leadership necessary to replenish the fund, the president plans to reduce its payouts by cleaning up fewer sites. Pig-Pen would have been proud.
This is not a minor matter. The sites targeted by the Superfund program are horribly polluted, in many cases with cancer-causing substances. Millions of Americans live within a few miles of these sites.
The Superfund decision is the kind of environmental move we've come to expect from the Bush administration. Mother Nature has been known to tremble at the sound of the president's approaching footsteps. He's an environmental disaster zone.
In February a top enforcement official at the Environmental Protection Agency, Eric Schaeffer, quit because of Bush administration policies that he said undermined the agency's efforts to crack down on industrial polluters. Mr. Schaeffer said he felt he was "fighting a White House that seems determined to weaken the rules we are trying to enforce."
That, of course, is exactly what this White House is doing. Within weeks of Mr. Schaeffer's resignation came official word that the administration was relaxing the air quality regulations that applied to older coal-fired power plants, a step backward that delighted the administration's industrial pals.
During this same period, the president broke his campaign promise to regulate the industrial emissions of carbon dioxide, a move that, among other things, would have helped in the fight to slow the increase in global warming. Mr. Bush has also turned his back on the Kyoto Protocol, which would require industrial nations to reduce their emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases.
The president was even disdainful of his own administration's report on global warming, which acknowledged that the U.S. would experience far-reaching and, in some cases, devastating environmental consequences as a result of the climate change.
The president's views on global warming seem aligned with those of the muddle-headed conservative groups in Texas that have been forcing rewrites in textbooks to fit their political and spiritual agendas. In one environmental science textbook, the following was added:
"In the past, the earth has been much warmer than it is now, and fossils of sea creatures show us that the sea level was much higher than it is today. So does it really matter if the world gets warmer?"
Senator Joseph Lieberman, not exactly a left-winger on the environment or anything else, gave a speech in California in February in which he assailed the president's lack of leadership on global warming and other environmental issues. He characterized the president's energy policy as "mired in crude oil" and said Mr. Bush had been "AWOL in the war against environmental pollution."
Several states, fed up with Mr. Bush's capitulation to industry on these matters, have moved on their own to protect the environment and develop more progressive energy policies.
Simply stated, the president has behaved irresponsibly toward the environment and shows no sign of changing his ways. You could laugh at Pig-Pen. He was just a comic strip character. But Mr. Bush is no joke. His trashing of the environment is a deadly serious matter.

Toxic Smear Job
The Times "Slashes" Bush with its bogus Superfund budget-cuts story.
The terrifying headline, "Bush Slashing Aid for E.P.A. Cleanup at 33 Toxic Sites," which fronted the New York Times on Monday, July 1, was enough to make you zip your hazmat suit. Quoting a report by the inspector general of the Environmental Protection Agency, Times scribe Katharine Q. Seelye found that some of the nation's "most seriously polluted" Superfund cleanup sites in 18 states would go wanting for dollars this year because of Bush administration stinginess. Seelye writes:
Among the sites that for now would receive less money—in some cases, none—are a manufacturing plant in Edison, N.J., where the herbicide Agent Orange was produced, several chemical plants in Florida and two old mines in Montana.
As the American media's news-agenda dictator, the Times inspired dozens of pieces by newspapers, wire services, and broadcasters across the country. Many papers, such as the Orlando Sentinel and the Bergen County Record, localized their stories by mentioning Superfund site cutbacks in their backyards.
Although the Times story spewed Superfund hysteria, it never went as far as the Record, which reported (erroneously) that the administration planned "to reduce spending for the nation's Superfund program." That's not the case. The "slashing" cuts of the Times headline, delineated in the seventh paragraph of the story, were merely the difference between what EPA regional offices had requested from the EPA's Washington headquarters ($450 million) and what headquarters had deigned to allocate ($228 million) to clean up 33 specific sites in FY 2002. It's as if you asked Santa for a BMW and accused him of dealing you a cutback when he only gave you a Honda.
In fact, spending on Superfund has remained steady in recent years, with $1.4 billion budgeted in FY 2000, $1.27 billion in 2001, $1.27 billion in FY 2002 (not counting homeland security add-ins), and a projected $1.3 billion for FY 2003, if the Bushies get their way. (Among other things, the Superfund budget covers legal enforcement, engineering, office overhead, and direct cleanup of sites.) Seelye notes the current budget in her piece but doesn't put it in the context of previous years' spending or the Bush administration's 2003 intentions. Based on these numbers, Seelye could have just as easily written a story titled, "Bush Superfund Budget Grows Slightly."
Neither the next day's (July 2) Wall Street Journal or Washington Post bought the Times line. Both got a comment from the EPA, something Seelye didn't do. Agency spokesperson Joe Martyak told both papers that the numbers in the inspector general's report were only a "snapshot in time" and not accurate. Martyak added that some of the 33 Superfund sites didn't need more money and that 11 would win more funds in a later quarter.
Why, then, all the horror show about the Superfund-slashing Bush? One can, in good conscience, criticize Bush as less aggressive than Clinton in his Superfund cleanup strategy, as National Journal did in its June 1 issue. Or one can argue that the program should be bumped up to $1.5 billion and $1.6 billion in this decade to complete the various projects, as Superfund maven Kathryn Probst at Resources for the Future holds.
But that's not what's driving this story. Hill Democrats want to reinstitute the "Superfund tax," which ran from 1980 to 1995. The tax dunned chemical and oil companies, among other industries, for money to clean up "orphan" Superfund sites—sites whose owners have absconded or have gone bankrupt. The sites affected by Bush "cutbacks" are orphans and constitute 30 percent of all Superfund cleanups. (Culpable corporate parties, snared by EPA cops, pay for the remaining 70 percent of Superfund-designated sites.)
The Superfund tax trust fund, which ballooned to $3.8 billion in 1996, is now nearly empty, and that's reignited the Hill debate about how to pay for the orphans' hygiene. Since 1995, Republicans have resolutely opposed a new Superfund tax and have largely agreed with industry that general tax revenues should cover the orphans (or that the feds should defer the matter to the states). The Democrats, led by Rep. John D. Dingell of Michigan and Rep. Frank Pallone Jr. of New Jersey, want the tax back, and they have been campaigning in the press since the beginning of the year for its return. In April, Dingell and Pallone commissioned the EPA inspector general—who is not an EPA employee—to investigate which Superfund cleanups the Bush administration was postponing or scaling back on. When they got the report, they delivered it to Seelye, apparently giving her one of the media's first peeks.
To her credit, Seelye acknowledges the provenance of the report, discloses who gave it to her, and describes her benefactors as "opposing the cuts." But after doing so, she carries the Democrats' water for them, essaying at great length about their desire for the Superfund tax. One of the piece's subheads, "Superfund Is Drying Up," should be its headline (but that's been true for the last six years). And she echoes the enviros' and Democrats' point of view, accepting their dubious rhetoric that under the Superfund tax, "the polluter pays." Actually, the Superfund tax conscripts many companies that have never polluted and had no role in creating the orphan sites. And in describing the "cuts," she compares what the EPA regional offices requested—which, given bureaucratic imperatives, is likely to be more than they planned to get—with what the Bush administration allocated. The fair way to compute budget "cuts," of course, would be to compare what EPA spent last year against this year. But she doesn't get that number.
Besides including no response by the EPA—not even a "no comment"—Seelye declines to talk to an industry flack or a think-tanker who might take issue with their Superfund alarmism. (Spokespersons from the Edison Wetlands and the League of Conservation Voters get their say.) Do any of the affected 33 sites pose immediate, grave danger to the public health? Are some better candidates for containment rather than immediate cleanup? Is the Bush administration actually doing the environment a favor by performing budget triage, funneling the most money to the neediest sites?
I'm prepared to believe that the Bush administration's Superfund strategy poses serious health risks to hundreds, thousands, or maybe even millions. Or that George W. Bush personally poisons my tap water. But Seelye's rewrite of the inspector general's report hypes a legitimate debate about who should pay to clean up orphan Superfund sites by falsely suggesting that Bush is gutting the program.

Celebrating Irfan Habib
Excursus in History: Essays on Some Ideas of Irfan Habib edited by Prabhat Patnaik (Delhi: Tulika Books), 2011; pp xvi + 377, Rs 790 (HC), Rs 450 (PB).
Prabhat Patnaik deserves our congratulations for bringing together eminent scholars to write on the ideas and theories of the staunch Marxist historian and public intellectual Irfan Habib whose writings have made major departures from traditional Indian historiography and have influenced the thinking of his colleagues, generations of students and social scientists at large. Grouped under such broad rubrics as history and historiography, medieval India, and political economy and theory, the articles in the volume are heterogeneous. The range and variety of their themes give us an idea of his wide academic canvas and his path-breaking research that has promoted scientific history writing and shaped our understanding of Indian society during the last five decades.

Accepted Manuscript: On Emergent Communication in Competitive Multi-Agent Teams
Title: On Emergent Communication in Competitive Multi-Agent Teams
Several recent works have found the emergence of grounded com-positional language in the communication protocols developed bymostly cooperative multi-agent systems when learned end-to-endto maximize performance on a downstream task. However, humanpopulations learn to solve complex tasks involving communicativebehaviors not only in fully cooperative settings but also in scenar-ios where competition acts as an additional external pressure forimprovement. In this work, we investigate whether competitionfor performance from an external, similar agent team could actas a social influence that encourages multi-agent populations todevelop better communication protocols for improved performance,compositionality, and convergence speed. We start fromTask &Talk, a previously proposed referential game between two coopera-tive agents as our testbed and extend it intoTask, Talk & Compete,a game involving two competitive teams each consisting of twoaforementioned cooperative agents. Using this new setting, we pro-vide an empirical study demonstrating the impact of competitiveinfluence on multi-agent teams. Our results show that an externalcompetitive influence leads to improved accuracy and generaliza-tion, as well as faster emergence of communicative languages thatare more informative and compositional.

Evolutionary Constraints on Connectivity Patterns in the Mammalian Suprachiasmatic Nucleus
https://doi.org/10.3389/fnetp.2021.716883
Spencer, Connor ; Tripp, Elizabeth ; Fu, Feng ; Pauls, Scott ( August 2021 , Frontiers in Network Physiology)
The mammalian suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) comprises about 20,000 interconnected oscillatory neurons that create and maintain a robust circadian signal which matches to external light cues. Here, we use an evolutionary game theoretic framework to explore how evolutionary constraints can influence the synchronization of the system under various assumptions on the connection topology, contributing to the understanding of the structure of interneuron connectivity. Our basic model represents the SCN as a network of agents each with two properties—a phase and a flag that determines if it communicates with its neighbors or not. Communication comes at a cost to the agent, but synchronization of phases with its neighbors bears a benefit. Earlier work shows that when we have "all-to-all" connectivity, where every agent potentially communicates with every other agent, there is often a simple trade-off that leads to complete communication and synchronization of the system: the benefit must be greater than twice the cost. This trade-off for all-to-all connectivity gives us a baseline to compare to when looking at other topologies. Using simulations, we compare three plausible topologies to the all-to-all case, finding that convergence to synchronous dynamics occurs in all considered topologies under similar benefit and cost trade-offs. Consequently, sparser, lessmore »biologically costly topologies are reasonable evolutionary outcomes for organisms that develop a synchronizable oscillatory network. Our simulations also shed light on constraints imposed by the time scale on which we observe the SCN to arise in mammals. We find two conditions that allow for a synchronizable system to arise in relatively few generations. First, the benefits of connectivity must outweigh the cost of facilitating the connectivity in the network. Second, the game at the core of the model needs to be more cooperative than antagonistic games such as the Prisoner's Dilemma. These results again imply that evolutionary pressure may have driven the system towards sparser topologies, as they are less costly to create and maintain. Last, our simulations indicate that models based on the mutualism game fare the best in uptake of communication and synchronization compared to more antagonistic games such as the Prisoner's Dilemma.« less
Adaptive Agent Architecture for Real-time Human-Agent Teaming
Ni, T. ( January 2021 , AAAI Workshop on Plan, Activity, and Intent Recognition)
Teamwork is a set of interrelated reasoning, actions and behaviors of team members that facilitate common objectives. Teamwork theory and experiments have resulted in a set of states and processes for team effectiveness in both human-human and agent-agent teams. However, human-agent teaming is less well studied because it is so new and involves asymmetry in policy and intent not present in human teams. To optimize team performance in human-agent teaming, it is critical that agents infer human intent and adapt their polices for smooth coordination. Most literature in human-agent teaming builds agents referencing a learned human model. Though these agents are guaranteed to perform well with the learned model, they lay heavy assumptions on human policy such as optimality and consistency, which is unlikely in many real-world scenarios. In this paper, we propose a novel adaptive agent architecture in human-model-free setting on a two-player cooperative game, namely Team Space Fortress (TSF). Previous human-human team research have shown complementary policies in TSF game and diversity in human players' skill, which encourages us to relax the assumptions on human policy. Therefore, we discard learning human models from human data, and instead use an adaptation strategy on a pre-trained library of exemplar policiesmore »composed of RL algorithms or rule-based methods with minimal assumptions of human behavior. The adaptation strategy relies on a novel similarity metric to infer human policy and then selects the most complementary policy in our library to maximize the team performance. The adaptive agent architecture can be deployed in real-time and generalize to any off-the-shelf static agents. We conducted human-agent experiments to evaluate the proposed adaptive agent framework, and demonstrated the suboptimality, diversity, and adaptability of human policies in human-agent teams.« less
Stable and Efficient Shapley Value-Based Reward Reallocation for Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning of Autonomous Vehicles
Songyang Han, He Wang ( May 2022 , 2022 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation)
With the development of sensing and communica- tion technologies in networked cyber-physical systems (CPSs), multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL)-based methodolo- gies are integrated into the control process of physical systems and demonstrate prominent performance in a wide array of CPS domains, such as connected autonomous vehicles (CAVs). However, it remains challenging to mathematically characterize the improvement of the performance of CAVs with commu- nication and cooperation capability. When each individual autonomous vehicle is originally self-interest, we can not assume that all agents would cooperate naturally during the training process. In this work, we propose to reallocate the system's total reward efficiently to motivate stable cooperation among autonomous vehicles. We formally define and quantify how to reallocate the system's total reward to each agent under the proposed transferable utility game, such that communication- based cooperation among multi-agents increases the system's total reward. We prove that Shapley value-based reward reallocation of MARL locates in the core if the transferable utility game is a convex game. Hence, the cooperation is stable and efficient and the agents should stay in the coalition or the cooperating group. We then propose a cooperative policy learning algorithm with Shapley value reward reallocation. In experiments, compared with several literaturemore »algorithms, we show the improvement of the mean episode system reward of CAV systems using our proposed algorithm.« less
Service Function Chain Placement in Cloud Data Center Networks: a Cooperative Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning Approach
Gao Lynn ; Chen Yutian ; Tang Bin ( January 2021 , 11th EAI International Conference on Game Theory for Networks (GameNets 2021))
Service function chaining (SFC), consisting of a sequence of virtual network functions (VNFs) (i.e., firewalls and load balancers), is an effective service provision technique in modern data center networks. By requiring cloud user traffic to traverse the VNFs in order, SFC im- proves the security and performance of the cloud user applications. In this paper, we study how to place an SFC inside a data center to mini- mize the network traffic of the virtual machine (VM) communication. We take a cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning approach, wherein multiple agents collaboratively figure out the traffic-efficient route for the VM communication. Underlying the SFC placement is a fundamental graph-theoretical prob- lem called the k-stroll problem. Given a weighted graph G(V, E), two nodes s, t ∈ V , and an integer k, the k-stroll problem is to find the shortest path from s to t that visits at least k other nodes in the graph. Our work is the first to take a multi-agent learning approach to solve k- stroll problem. We compare our learning algorithm with an optimal and exhaustive algorithm and an existing dynamic programming(DP)-based heuristic algorithm. We show that our learning algorithm, although lack- ing the complete knowledge ofmore »the network assumed by existing research, delivers comparable or even better VM communication time while taking two orders of magnitude of less execution time.« less
Coordinate to cooperate or compete: Abstract goals and joint intentions in social interaction
Kleiman-Weiner, Max ; Ho, Mark K. ; Austerweil, Joseph L. ; Littman, Michael L. ; Tenenbaum, Joshua B. ( January 2016 , COGSCI)
Successfully navigating the social world requires reasoning about both high-level strategic goals, such as whether to cooperate or compete, as well as the low-level actions needed to achieve those goals. While previous work in experimental game theory has examined the former and work on multi-agent systems has examined the later, there has been little work investigating behavior in environments that require simultaneous planning and inference across both levels. We develop a hierarchical model of social agency that infers the intentions of other agents, strategically decides whether to cooperate or compete with them, and then executes either a cooperative or competitive planning program. Learning occurs across both high-level strategic decisions and low-level actions leading to the emergence of social norms. We test predictions of this model in multi-agent behavioral experiments using rich video-game like environments. By grounding strategic behavior in a formal model of planning, we develop abstract notions of both cooperation and competition and shed light on the computational nature of joint intentionality.

"Dr. Kem Ley's wife decided to seek a lawyer from CENTRAL to file a complaint to find justice for her husband," said Moeun Tola, executive director of the Center for Alliance of Labor and Human Rights. CENTRAL is a labor-oriented NGO that aims to give Cambodian working people transparent and accountable governance for labor and human rights through legal aid and other actions.
While authorities charged former soldier Oueth Ang with the killing, many in Cambodia don't believe the government's story that he was killed by the former soldier over a debt.
Kem Ley was buried in southwestern Cambodia's Takeo province two weeks later after a weekend funeral procession that drew around two million mourners.
Deputy prosecutor and Phnom Penh Municipal Court spokesman Ly Sophanna who is handling the case, told RFA's Khmer Service on Thursday that the prosecuting judge is continuing the government's investigation.
While the government investigation moves ahead, various nongovernmental agencies are gearing up for more action related to Kem Ley's slaying and preserving his legacy, Moeun Tola told RFA.
In addition to the legal action, NGOs are dividing up into groups that seek to explain the political and human rights situation in Cambodia to the national and international community, place a Kem Ley statue in Freedom Park in the capital, Phnom Penh, and safeguard Kem Ley's family's security.

The Atlantic Politics & Policy Daily: The Final Countdown
Attorney General William Barr says he plans to share Mueller's report with Congress by mid-April. It's unclear how much of the nearly 400 page report will be redacted.
By Elaine Godfrey and Madeleine Carlisle
Jacquelyn Martin / AP
What We're Following Today
It's Friday, March 29.
‣ Linda McMahon, a former pro-wrestling executive and the current head of the Small Business Administration, will reportedly resign from her position to chair President Donald Trump's super PAC, America First Action.
Here's what else we're watching:
Will the Public Ever See the Mueller Report?: Attorney General William Barr said he plans to share with Congress Special Counsel Robert Mueller's report by mid-April, if not sooner. In his letter to Senator Lindsey Graham and Representative Jerry Nadler, heads of Congress's two judiciary committees, Barr also said that he will not share the contents of the report with the White House before releasing it, and noted that his summary of the findings from last week was "not an exhaustive recounting" of Mueller's report, which is nearly 400 pages long.
But that doesn't mean the public will see the review in full, reports Natasha Bertrand. "Between the withholding of grand-jury and privileged material and the redaction of classified information, the public could be left with a shell of the original report."
Listen to this week's episode of Radio Atlantic, in which the staff writers Edward-Issac Dovere and McKay Coppins discuss what all this means for 2020.
Remember the Pee Tape?: Many of the president's critics were disappointed last week when Barr declared that Mueller's investigation all but cleared the president of wrongdoing. But the "seeds of the disappointment" were planted two years ago, when BuzzFeed News first published an unverified—and unverifiable—dossier compiled by the British-intelligence operative Christopher Steele, argues David Graham. The salacious document "set the stage for the political response to investigations to come—inflating expectations in the public, moving the goalposts for Trump in a way that has fostered bad behavior, and tainting the press's standing."
Call Me a Socialist!: Joe Sanberg, a multimillionaire investor, might be running for president. Sanberg supports Medicare for all, the Green New Deal, increased regulation, and expanding the social safety net. He has no name recognition, but in an election where Trump has painted the Democrats as radical socialists, Sanberg thinks he has an edge: "Good luck to them if they want to call me a socialist, because businesspeople aren't socialists," he told Edward-Isaac Dovere.

Ideas From The Atlantic
Barbara Bush's Long-Hidden 'Thoughts on Abortion' (Susan Page)
"In 1980, when George H. W. Bush was making his first bid for the presidency, Barbara Bush covered four sheets of lined paper with her bold handwriting, then tucked the pages into a folder with her diary and some personal letters. She was trying to sort out what she believed about one of the most divisive issues of the day." → Read on.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act Is Confusing Taxpayers (Mark Mazur)
"Although the most recent IRS data show that average income-tax refunds are closely tracking the average refund from last year, taxpayers have been complaining in interviews with journalists and on social media that their refund is smaller than expected or that they unexpectedly owe additional tax. Given that the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was all about tax cuts, how can this be?" → Read on.
Quit Harping on U.S. Aid to Israel (James Kirchick)
"U.S. assistance to Israel demands far less—in both blood and treasure—than many other American defense relationships around the world." → Read on.

Ariana Grande covers up in chic white jumpsuit for Radio 1 appearance
Posted on January 24, 2023 by Rana Abdullah Leave a Comment on Ariana Grande covers up in chic white jumpsuit for Radio 1 appearance
Her latest video sees her transform into a blonde bombshell. But Ariana Grande swapped her skimpy ensembles for something far more stylish as she was pictured arriving at the BBC Radio 1 studios in central London. The Focus singer cut an uncharacteristically effortless figure as she prioritised style over hotness for her appearance on the popular station.
Ariana slipped into a chic white jumpsuit which mostly concealed her lithe frame, aside from the plunging neckline which offered a glimpse of her pert assets. The chart star teamed the simple one-piece with a see-through mac coat which protected her from the autumnal downpours although she deliberately let it hang off her body for a high-fashion feel.
She heightened her petite figure with her favourite pair of two tone heels which perfectly co-ordinated with the rest of her outfit. Ariana was professionally made up with fluttering fake lashes and bronze eyeshadow tones drawing attention to her bold brown eyes. She appeared in high spirits despite the miserable day as she was greeted by a small crowd of admirers on arrival to the venue.
She made time to entertain the fans, briefly talking to them and blowing kisses as she made her way into the building. Ariana's career continues to go from strength to strength as not only has she recently been named the new face of MAC Cosmetics' Viva Glam line but she also tops the bill at Capital's Jingle Bell Ball in December.
The Focus songstress will perform at the annual event at London's O2 alongside ex-boyfriend and former The Wanted singer Nathan Sykes as well as a handful of chart acts. The pop pair dated for four months from August in 2013 before going their separate ways just before Christmas.
However, the former couple are still close, according to Nathan, anyhow. When the question was put to him in a recent interview, he responded: 'Yeah, of course. When some things don't work out they don't work out. Long distances and stuff like that. On different schedules and touring in different parts of the world. It's like sometimes it doesn't happen so easily.

Bangladesh tourism sector seeks special incentive package
Published 12 Jul,2020 via The Financial Express - Business associations in Cox's Bazar demanded a special incentive package in order to overcome the crises in the tourism sector of the country which emerged due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The associations also spoke for effective implementation of the government announced incentive package through banks so that local small entrepreneurs can take advantage of those incentive packages.
The Cox's Bazar Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Cox's Bazar Hotel Owners' Association, District Restaurant Owners' Association, Dry Fish Producers' Association, Salt Mill Owners' Association, Small and Medium Entrepreneurs' Foundation and other business organisations demanded that in a webinar on Saturday.
Md Abu Murshed Chowdhury, president of Cox's Bazar Chamber of Commerce and Industry, moderated the discussion.
Helal Uddin, senior secretary at local government ministry, Md Kamal Hossain, deputy commissioner of Cox's Bazar, Md Mahbub Alam, president of Chittagong Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Rezaul Karim Chowdhury, executive director of COAST Trust spoke at the webinar, among others.
Helal Uddin said that Cox's Bazar has a tourism based economy which is closed now because of the Covid-19 crises, and so we could resume all business activities following health hygiene rules.
Deputy Commissioner Md Kamal Hossain said that
about 300,000 people involved in the tourism sector got unemployed at the moment. We are thinking about their livelihood, we can talk to the banks so that they can collaborate with small entrepreneurs and they can start businesses, he added.
Abu Murshed Chowdhury discussed the details of the incentive package of the government and placed a seven-point demand that included an announcement of a special incentive package for the tourism sector in Cox's Bazar.
It also included protecting the salt farmers and forming a salt development board, lifting the lockdown and allowing economic activities and businesses especially opening hotels, restaurants and airlines maintaining health rules.
He also mentioned that the payment of VAT and utility bill to be withheld for a substantial period, a chilling centre should be established for dairy farmers and international markets should be explored to strengthen shrimp export, so that shrimp hatcheries can run sustainably.

I knew it was going to be a good day when I woke up this morning, turned on the computer to browse the news on CNN.com, and came across a hot naked man singing to a ham sandwich.
Admittedly, such imagery isn't to everyone's taste (seriously? But there's cured meat!). But that's not why Britain's Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) banned this witty commercial for Richmond Ham. It got, uh, canned, for a failure to uphold truthful standards in advertising, by declaring itself "Britain's only natural ham made with 100% natural ingredients." The ham is actually made in Ireland.
