Autism Spectrum Disorder May Be Caused by Defects in the Mitochondria of Brain Cells
TOPICS:Autism Spectrum DisorderChildren's Hospital of Philadelphia
By Children's Hospital of Philadelphia February 1, 2021
Early research shows how mild defects in the 'batteries' of cells in brain tissue can lead to behaviors similar to those of autism.
Researchers at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) have demonstrated that autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may be caused by defects in the mitochondria of brain cells. The findings were published online by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Multiple studies have revealed hundreds of mutations associated with autism spectrum disorder, but there is no consensus as to how these genetic changes cause the condition. Biochemical and physiological analyses have suggested that deficiencies in mitochondria, the "batteries" of the cell that produce most of the body's energy, might be a possible cause. Recent studies have shown that variants of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) are associated with autism spectrum disorder.
The study team hypothesized that if defects in the mitochondria do predispose patients to ASD, then a mouse model in which relevant mtDNA mutations have been introduced should present with autism endophenotypes, measurable traits similar to those seen in patients. For this model, the traits related to autism included behavioral, neurophysiological, and biochemical features.
"Autism spectrum disorder is highly genetically heterogeneous, and many of the previously identified copy number and loss of function variants could have an impact on the mitochondria," said Douglas C. Wallace, PhD, Director of the Center for Mitochondrial and Epigenomic Medicine and the Michael and Charles Barnett Endowed Chair in Pediatric Mitochondrial Medicine and Metabolic Diseases at CHOP, co-senior author of the study, with Eric D. Marsh, MD, PhD, attending pediatric neurologist, Division of Child Neurology at CHOP.
The researchers – including co-first authors Tal Yardeni, PhD and Ana G. Cristancho, MD, PhD – introduced a mild missense mutation in the mtDNA ND6 gene into a mouse strain. The resulting mouse exhibited impaired social interactions, increased repetitive behaviors and anxiety, all of which are common behavioral features associated with autism spectrum disorder. The researchers also noted aberrations in electroencephalograms (EEG), more seizures, and brain-region specific defects on mitochondrial function. Despite these observations, the researchers found no obvious change in the brain's anatomy. These findings suggest that mitochondrial energetic defects appear to be sufficient to cause autism.
"Our study shows that mild systemic mitochondrial defects can result in autism spectrum disorder without causing apparent neuroanatomical defects," Wallace said. "These mutations appear to cause tissue-specific brain defects. While our findings warrant further study, there is reason to believe that this could lead to better diagnosis of autism and potentially treatments directed toward mitochondrial function."

Yeah, studies of the mitochrodria are very enlightening, as our mitochondria are basically our batteries. You might meditate on your own mitochrondia, and wish them all well. Its a rough world down there at the mitochrodial level. 🙂

I'm Autistic and a self Advocate and we are not defective or a disease. We are people who just happen to be Autistic and Auesome.
We don't want a cure either. Stop pathologizing us and trying to find out what causes Autism. I wouldn't change who I am for all the money in the world I love being Autistic.

But you can't speak for all autistic people, right? Some of them actually want to be cured. Also, this research is useful for future autism prevention. If everyone thought like you, no one would even try to help autistic people.

Re: The Lavry Gold A/D and Slamming It!!
Has this loudness disease finally gotten to the point that it now sounds better to clip the ADC?
My understanding is that the race for loudness is about making it louder without having a "clipped sound". I am not for clipping or for loud, but it does sell. There are few that do it well - it sounds loud, not clipped. Unfortunately, there are many that clip and it sounds clipped.

Huawei announces a new procurement for the next five years of £3bn to the UK
Posted by Zenobia HegdeFebruary 6, 2018
Huawei Technologies has announced a major new commitment to the UK with a promise of procurement over the next five years of £3billion (€3.38 billion). On 1st February, Madam Sun Yafang, chairwoman of Huawei met with the UK prime minister Theresa May in Beijing, and reaffirmed the company's long-term commitment to the UK.
Huawei, which is a key investor in Europe, has announced that the company will procure a total of £3billion (€3.38 billion) in the UK over the next five years, helping UK companies to increase exports to China.
This new commitment builds on the pledge made by Huawei in 2012 to invest and procure £1.3billion (€1.46 billion) in the UK over the five years from 2013-17. Huawei announced that this target was significantly exceeded, and Huawei has invested and procured £2billion (€2.25 billion) in that period. The company now employs more than 1,500 people in the UK in 15 offices, including its head office in Green Park, Reading.
Prime minister, Theresa May, said: "Thanks to the drive and innovation of UK business, backed by this Government, trade between the UK and China is already at record levels. This visit is an opportunity to further showcase the best of British and boost jobs and prosperity throughout the UK."
International Trade secretary, Dr Liam Fox, said: "Huawei's £3 billion (€3.38 billion) announcement is yet another significant vote of confidence in our world-leading tech industry and I'm delighted to welcome their increased commitment to the UK. With 90% of global growth forecast to come from outside the EU, my international economic department is working to ensure Britain continues to benefit from the vast opportunities available as we leave the EU."
Madam Sun Yafang, chairwoman of Huawei met with the UK prime minister Theresa May in Beijing and confirmed the company will procure a total of £3billion in the UK over the next five years
Madam Sun Yafang, Huawei Group, chairwoman said: "Huawei values long-term partnership. The UK was one of the first international markets we entered, when we opened our first office there in 2001. We have now been working with our major customers in the UK for more than twelve years, helping to build a better connected UK. Over the coming years we look forward to continuing to collaborate with our customers and partners to help keep the UK at the very forefront of the digital age."
Long-term customer partnerships
Huawei has worked with both BT Group and Vodafone Group for over 12 years, and these customer partnerships are central to the company's success in the UK. Huawei has two joint innovation centres in the UK, one in Ipswich with BT, and one in Newbury with Vodafone. Huawei plans to continue making a significant contribution by exploring vital future technologies, including 5G, alongside its customers at these centres in the years ahead.
Research presence in the UK
Huawei has a strong focus on R&D and has three Research & Development (R&D) sites in the UK: the Centre for Integrated Photonics in Ipswich; Neul in Cambridge; and a centre in Bristol. Huawei's ongoing co-operation with UK universities has seen the company work with more than 20 different universities on over 100 individual research projects over the last five years.
The company will continue to grow its investment in R&D and collaborate with UK universities over the next five years, with plans for an expanded range of topics to research and more university partnerships.

Lawrence city sidewalk ordinance ruled unconstitutional
Feb 9, 2012 - 5:15pm
George Diepenbrock
Robert Gilmore, also known as Simon, walks along 10th Street in this file photo.
A Lawrence Municipal Court judge has declared part of a city ordinance that makes it illegal to obstruct traffic on a sidewalk vague and unconstitutional.
Judge Randy McGrath made the ruling Wednesday in a trial of Robert Gilmore, 54, who faced three misdemeanor counts of prohibited use of a right of way for incidents last year on Massachusetts Street.
Prosecutors accused Gilmore, who sometimes goes by "Simon" and is often seen downtown wearing a robe or bed sheet, of blocking the sidewalk under the ordinance. Elizabeth Hafoka, a city prosecutor who handled the Jan. 27 trial, said the alleged incidents occurred June 14, Sept. 30 and Oct. 26.
The city commission on a 3-2 vote in 2005 approved the ordinance making it illegal to walk, stand, lie or sit on a sidewalk to block the lawful passage by another person or require the person to take evasive action to avoid physical contact. The ordinance was drafted in 2005 along with an "aggressive panhandling" ordinance.
Attorneys said McGrath found one subsection of the ordinance that makes it illegal to "continue to obstruct traffic" and the definition about people having to walk around someone was vague and violated the First Amendment. The leaving of objects in a right of way and intentionally obstructing traffic were said to be OK.
Gilmore's defense attorney, Shelley Hickman Clark, said the ruling was important because the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled the First Amendment gave people a right to be on a public street or "walking at whim."
She said McGrath gave examples that it can be difficult to walk through an area if people are standing on the sidewalk downtown waiting to get a table for a crowded restaurant.
"It's difficult to walk through that crowd, but it's not criminal activity," said Hickman Clark, an associate clinical specialist with Douglas County Legal Aid. "I think it's very important for people who want to be downtown just to be part of the community."
Gilmore was released from custody Wednesday after McGrath made his ruling. According to past Journal-World stories, Gilmore's mother said he received a diagnosis of paranoid schizophrenia in childhood.
Social services agencies have been unsuccessful in attempting to help him.
Hafoka said the city has until Feb. 22 to decide whether to appeal the decision to Douglas County District Court.
McGrath, who retired as municipal court judge last year, heard the case because Judge Scott Miller recused himself. Miller was a city staff attorney starting in 2005 who crafted much of the city's newer criminal ordinances and codes.

Welcome to my Set Theory Page
Set Theory: Foundations of Mathematics
The two axioms which define Intuitive Set Theory are discussed below.
Ackermann Functions and Transfinite Ordinals
An important part of Cantor's set theory, which forms the foundations of mathematics, is the concept of transfinite ordinals. A systematic way of writing the sequence of ordinals is given.
Justification of the Continuum Hypothesis
Intuitive arguments are given to suggest that Continuum Hypothesis should be accepted.
Axiomatic Derivation of the Continuum Hypothesis
Continuum Hypothesis is derived from an axiom called Axiom of Monotonicity.
Real Set Theory
A set theory is defined in which Generalized Continuum Hypothesis and Axiom of Choice are theorems.
Intuitive Set Theory
A set theory is defined in which Skolem Paradox does not arise. Also, there are no sets which are not Lebesgue measurable.
Two Axioms to Extend Zermelo-Fraenkel Theory
Axiom of Monotonicity is used along with Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory to derive Generalized Continuum Hypothesis. Axiom of Fusion is used to investigate the cardinality of the set of points in a unit interval.
Visualization of Intuitive Set Theory
Intuitive Set Theory is defined as the theory we get when axioms of Monotonicity and Fusion are added to ZF theory. Cardinals in the theory are visualized using illustrations.
White Hole, Black Whole, and The Book
Physical and intellectual spaces are visualized making use of concepts from Intuitive Set Theory. A book containing all the proofs of mathematics is called The Book.
The Essence of Intuitive Set Theory
The ideas which motivated the defintion of intuitive set theory are explained. Only a passing acquaintance with the transfinite cardinals of Cantor is assumed on the part of the reader.
Generalized Continuum Hypothesis and the Method of Fusing
The method of fusing explains the basis for the formulation of the axioms of monotonicity and fusion, the two axioms which define intuitive set theory.
Generalized Continuum Hypothesis and the Axiom of Combinatorial Sets
Axiom of Combinatorial Sets is defined and used to derive generalized continuum hypothesis.
Definition of Intuitive Set Theory
Two axioms which define intuitive set theory, Axiom of Combinatorial Sets and Axiom of Infinitesimals, are stated. Generalized continuum hypothesis is derived from the first axiom, and the infinitesimal is visualized using the latter axiom.
Two Open Problems and a Conjecture in Mathematical Logic
The open problems attempt to extend Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory and the conjecture suggests an extension of Godel's incompleteness theorems.
Teaching Generalized Continuum Hypothesis
Generalized Continuum Hypothesis is derived from a simple axiom called Axiom of Combinatorial Sets.
The Mathematical Universe in a Nutshell
The mathematical universe discussed here gives models of possible structures our physical universe can have.
Derivation of Continuum Hypothesis from Axiom of Combinatorial Sets
Continuum Hypothesis is derived from an axiom called Axiom of Combinatorial Sets. The derivation is simple enough to be understood by any novice, who has a passing acquintance with cardinals of Cantor.
The advantage with the intuitive set theory is that it allows us to have a simple visualization of our physical and intellectual spaces.

Непере́рвна фу́нкція — в математичному аналізі це функція, у якій малим змінам аргумента відповідають малі зміни значення функції. Це означає, що графік неперервної функції не має стрибків, тобто може бути накреслений «не відриваючи олівець від паперу».

Усі елементарні функції — неперервні на своїй області визначення.

Неперервні функції трапляються набагато частіше, ніж диференційовні, множина всіх неперервних функцій замкнена відносно арифметичних операцій (за винятком ділення) і композиції та утворює чи не найважливіший клас функцій в аналізі.

Означення

Функція  дійсної змінної, яка означена в області , неперервна в точці  якщо для довільного  знайдеться таке  (яке залежить від ), що з  випливає

Функція  неперервна в області , якщо  неперервна в кожній точці цієї області.

Нехай  — гранична точка множини A.

Означення неперервності в точці x0
Функція f називається неперервною в точці  якщо:
 функція f(x) визначена в точці x0.
 існує границя
 .

Означення неперервності в точці x0 за Коші
Функція f називається неперервною в точці  якщо:

Означення неперервності в точці x0 за Гейне
Функція f називається неперервною в точці  якщо:
 .

Точки розриву
Якщо умова, що входить у визначення неперервності функції, в деякій точці порушується, то кажуть, що розглянута функція має в даній точці розрив. Інакше кажучи, якщо —  значення функції в точці , то межа такої функції (якщо він існує) не збігається з . Мовою околів умова розривності функції   в точці  є запереченням умови неперервності розглянутої функції в даній точці, а саме: існує такий окіл точки  в області значень функції , що як би ми близько не підходили до точки  в області визначення функції завжди знайдуться такі точки, образи яких будуть за межами околу точки .

Класифікація точок розриву в R¹

Класифікація розривів функцій залежить від того, як влаштовані множини X та Y. Далі наведено класифікацію для найпростішого випадку функції . Подібним чином класифікують і особливі точки  (точки, де функція не визначена).

Якщо функція має розрив в даній точці (тобто границя функції в даній точці відсутня або не збігається зі значенням функції в даній точці), то для числових функцій виникає два можливих варіанти, пов'язаних з існуванням у числових функцій односторонніх границь:
 якщо обидві односторонні границі існують і скінченні, то таку точку називають точкою розриву першого роду. До точок розриву першого роду відносять усувні розриви і стрибки.
 якщо хоча б одна з односторонніх границь не існує або не є скінченою величиною, то таку точку називають точкою розриву другого роду. До точок розриву другого роду відносять полюси і точки суттєвого розриву.

Усувна точка розриву

Якщо границя функції існує і скінченна, але функція не визначена в цій точці, або границя не збігається зі значенням функції в даній точці: ,
то точка  називається точкою усувного розриву функції  (в комплексному аналізі — усувна особлива точка).
Якщо «виправити» функцію  у точці усувного розриву і покласти , то вийде функція, неперервна в даній точці. Така операція над функцією називається довизначенням функції до неперервної або довизначенням функції за неперервністю, що і обґрунтовує назву точки, як точки усувного розриву.

Точка розриву «стрибок»

Розрив «стрибок» виникає, якщо
 .

Точка розриву «полюс»

Розрив «полюс» виникає, якщо одна з односторонніх границь нескінченна.
  або .

Точка суттєвого розриву

У точці суттєвого розриву одна з односторонніх границь взагалі відсутня.

Класифікація ізольованих особливих точок в Rn, n>1

Для функцій  та  немає потреби працювати з точками розриву, але нерідко доводиться працювати з особливими точками (точками, де функція не визначена). Класифікація подібна.
 Якщо , то це усувна особлива точка (аналогічно функції дійсного аргументу).
 Полюс визначається як . В багатовимірних просторах, якщо модуль числа росте, вважається, що , яким шляхом б він не ріс.
 Якщо границя взагалі не існує, це суттєва особлива точка.

Поняття «стрибок» відсутнє. Те, що в  вважається стрибком, в просторах більших розмірностей — суттєва особлива точка.

Властивості

Локальні
 Функція, неперервна в точці , є обмеженою в деякому околі цієї точки.
 Якщо функція  неперервна в точці  і  (або ), то  (або ) для всіх, досить близьких до .
 Якщо функції  та  неперервні в точці ,то функції  та  теж неперервні в точці .
 Якщо функції  та  неперервні в точці  і при цьому , то функція  теж неперервна в точці .
 Якщо функція  неперервна в точці  та функція  неперервна в точці , то їх композиція  неперервна в точці .

Глобальні
 Функція, неперервна на відрізку (або будь-якій іншій компактній множині), рівномірно неперервна на ньому.
 Функція, неперервна на відрізку (або будь-якій іншій компактній множині), обмежена і досягає на ній своє максимальне і мінімальне значення.
 Областю значень функції , неперервної на відрізку , є відрізок  де мінімум і максимум беруться по відрізку .
 Якщо функція  неперервна на відрізку  та  то існує точка  в якій .
 Якщо функція  неперервна на відрізку  і число  задовольняє нерівності  або нерівності  то існує точка  у котрій .
 Неперервне відображення відрізка в дійсну пряму ін'єктивне в тому і тільки в тому випадку, коли дана функція на відрізку строго монотонна .
 Монотонна функція на відрізку  неперервна в тому і тільки в тому випадку, коли область її значень є відрізком з кінцями  та .
 Якщо функції  и  неперервні на відрізку  , причому  та  то існує точка  в якій  Звідси, зокрема, випливає, що будь-яке неперервне відображення відрізка в себе має хоча б одну нерухому точку.

Топологічні
Вивчення топологічних властивостей неперервних функцій відбувається шляхом їх розшарування на гомотопічні класи, де кожний клас складається з функцій, які можуть неперервно деформуватися одна в одну. Нехай  та  — топологічні простори, а  та  — неперервні функції, які відображають  в . Відзначимо одиничний інтервал  на дійсній прямій  Тоді функції  та  є гомотопними, якщо існує неперервна функція , яка відображає  у , для якої  а  Неперервна функція , яка описує неперервну деформацію функції  у , називається гомотопією. Кожний гомотопічний клас характеризується степенем відображення  яку називають топологічним індексом. Усі функції, які відображають  у , можна розбити на гомотопічні класи, такі, що дві функції належать одному класові, якщо вони є гомотопними.

Приклади

Елементарні функції

Довільні многочлени, раціональні функції, показові функції, логарифми, тригонометричні функції (прямі і зворотні) неперервні скрізь у своїй області визначення.

Функція з усувним розривом

Функція  задається формулою

неперервна в будь-якій точці  Точка  є точкою усувного розриву, бо границя функції

Функція знака

функція

називається функцією знака.

Ця функція неперервна в кожній точці .

Точка  є точкою розриву першого роду, причому
 , в той час як в самій точці функція обертається в нуль.

Ступінчаста функція

Ступінчаста функція, яка визначається як

є всюди неперервна, крім точки , де функція терпить розрив першого роду. Проте, в точці  існує правобічна границя, яка збігається зі значенням функції в даній точці. Таким чином, дана функція є прикладом неперервної справа функції на всій області визначення .

Аналогічно, ступінчаста функція, яка визначається як

є прикладом неперервної зліва функції на всій області визначення .

Функція Діріхле

функція

називається функцією Діріхле . По суті, функція Діріхле — це характеристична функція множини раціональних чисел . Ця функція є всюди розривної функцією, оскільки на кожному інтервалі існують як раціональні, так і ірраціональні числа.

Функція Рімана
функція

називається функцією Рімана або функцією Тома.

Ця функція є неперервною всюди у множині ірраціональних чисел (), оскільки границя функції в кожній точці дорівнює нулю.

Варіації і узагальнення

Рівномірна неперервність

Функція  називається рівномірно неперервної на , якщо для будь-якого  існує  таке, що для будь-яких двох точок  і  яких, що , виконується .

Кожна рівномірно неперервна на множині  функція, очевидно, є також і неперервною на ньому. Зворотне, взагалі кажучи, невірно. Однак, якщо область визначення — компакт, то неперервна функція виявляється також і рівномірно неперервною на даному відрізку.

Напівнеперервність

Існує дві симетричні одна до одної властивості — напівнеперервна знизу і напівнеперервна зверху :
 функція  напівнеперервна знизу в точці , якщо для будь-якого  існує така околиця , що  для будь-якого ;
 функція  називається напівнеперервна зверху в точці , якщо для будь-якого  існує такий окіл точки , що  для будь-якого .
Між неперервністю і напівнеперервністю є такий зв'язок:
 якщо взяти функцію , неперервну в точці , і зменшити значення  (на кінцеву величину), то ми отримаємо функцію, напівнеперервну знизу в точці ;
 якщо взяти функцію , неперервну в точці , і збільшити значення  на кінцеву величину), то ми отримаємо функцію, напівнеперервну зверху в точці .
Відповідно до цього можна допустити для напівнеперервних функцій нескінченні значення:
 якщо , то будемо вважати таку функцію напівнеперервна знизу в точці ;
 якщо ,то будемо вважати таку функцію напівнеперервна зверху в точці .

Одностороння неперервність

Функція  називається односторонньо неперервною зліва (справа) в кожній точці  її області визначення, якщо для односторонньої границі виконується рівняння:

Неперервність майже всюди

На дійсній прямій зазвичай розглядається проста лінійна міра Лебега. Якщо функція  така, що вона неперервна всюди на , крім, можливо, множини міри нуль, то така функція називається неперервною майже всюди .

У тому випадку, коли множина точок розриву функції не більше ніж зліченна, ми отримуємо клас інтегрованих за Ріманом функцій (див. Критерій інтегрованості функції за Ріманом).

Hair-doers
"You look ridiculous. We can fix that."
So said a sign last month outside The Hive Hair Studio, an upstart salon opened just last year on Whitney Avenue. An earlier iteration said, "We fix $8 haircuts."
It's not mean. It's provocative and cheeky, which might be exactly what you're looking for in a new haircut.
Anyway, it's all in good fun. "We have a really killer sense of sarcasm," owner/stylist Jenna Vollono says. "And we have a really good time here."
When I arrived for a recent appointment, Vollono was giving a touch-up to one of her regulars, a Yale Business School student getting ready for a job interview. It was a gratis, between-cuts seating, covering quick clean-ups like bang trims.
Complimentary touch-ups are a nice perk of getting hair done at The Hive. Another is the French-press coffee offered upon walking inside, where a large Buddha painting and a spherical lantern laced with honeycomb-like hexagons hang among warm yellow walls. Small displays showcase locally crafted jewelry, and a vase full of lollipops pings a nostalgic part of sitting for a haircut as a kid, when you'd get to choose a flavor at the end.
She's been hairstyling for about ten years, beginning her training early, in high school. She worked at well-regarded New Haven spots like Broadway Hair and Capture Salon before opening The Hive—where, for the record, men are quite welcome, too.
Men were even considered in the naming of the place. "The Hive" refers to the '60s Beehive hairstyle for women, which to Vollono is really an emblem for a broader retro aesthetic that she loves. Not wanting to put off male clientele, however, she left out the "bee" part. Meanwhile, one of her latest hires, Maurizio Genovesi, does straight-razor shaves.
There are three other employees as well: receptionists Rachel Reynolds and Heather Dinneen; and color and curly hair specialist Amanda Castillo. Castillo's presence allows The Hive to feature special curly haircuts, each ending with a "hair class," where Castillo shows customers tricks for styling themselves away from the salon. "We are all about education," Vollono says. "We want to make sure you can replicate it at home."
As for her own education, Vollono spent a month at the Vidal Sassoon hairstyling school in Santa Monica when she first started out, and the rest has been on-the-job. When she was younger, she says she "had no idea" what she was going to do with her life. Giving hairstyling a go, she discovered she had a knack for it.
She's also got a knack for chatting up customers. During my cut, which turned out exactly as I'd hoped—short, easy and fun, but not "a mom haircut"—we passed the time talking about the best food in the area, our shared interest in writing (Vollono also runs a New Haven based writer's group) and her local roots. I also discovered that she comes from a background of business-minded women. Her mother, Carol Vollono, and sister, Brenda DePonte, own Sugar Bakery in East Haven, where she grew up.
In terms of pricing, those used to local salon prices won't blink an eye. A women's cut at Hive starts at $45, while a men's begins at $25. Color appointments start at $55 and a cut and color gets you a bit of a deal at $95. Highlights usually hang around $75, depending on what the client wants.
Those curious for examples should check out The Hive's well-updated Facebook page. A wide-ranging set of client photos—of bold turquoise streaks, sleek pixie cuts and that of-the-moment men's style with the short sides and longer top—celebrate the work and the customer in the same breath.
Vollono's intention is to make a place where you can breathe easy, where you can bring your baby or your dog, where you can explore daring hair decisions with confidence, then leave with still more of it.

Near the Rialto Bridge, and more precisely in the Campiello del Remer, overlooking the Grand Canal near the Rialto Bridge you might happen to witness a chilling sight: the body of Fosco Loredan that emerges from the water with the head of his wife Elena in his hands, which he cut off in a fit of jealousy.
The noble Fosco Loredan was jealous of the beautiful Elena, one of the daughters of the brother of Doge Marino Grimani. One evening the doge, from those parts, he heard a woman screaming from fear chased by a man with a drawn sword. The doge immediately ran finding them in their Campiello del Remer. The doge did not even turn around time that Fosco cut off the head to his wife. Marino Grimani, furious, restrained himself to do the same thing on the assassin who begged him to let him live and the ordered him to decide his fate by the Pope. And so he did, he departed, and went to Rome. After five months, the Pope did not want it either receive. He returned to Venice, went into the Campiello del Remer and there, in the Grand Canal, let himself drown.

Q: MooTools - Object.contains with wildcard I want to search for a value in an Object. For example:
I am searching for "boy". In the Object there is a value of "boy1" but Object.contains doesn't return true. Only when I actually search for "boy1".
Is it possible to use wildcards or is there any other function?
if(Object.contains(object, 'boy')) {
  console.log("FOUND!");
}

A: I had found the answer by myself:
Object.each(arrayWithObjects, function(object, index) {
   Object.each(object, function(value, key) {
       if(value.indexOf(searchTerm) > -1) {
           foundContacts.push(object);
       }
   });
});

A: I would consider extending Array instead with something resembling the where in lodash/underscore.
var a = [{
    name: 'bob',
    age: 31,
    colour: 'red'
}, {
    name: 'john',
    age: 38,
    colour: 'blue',
    job: 'chef'
}];

Array.implement({
    where: function(match){
        return Array.filter(this, function(el, index){
            var allMatch = false, k;
            for (k in match){
                if (el.hasOwnProperty(k)){
                    allMatch = (typeof match[k] === 'function') ?
                        match[k].call(el, el[k], k, index) :
                        el[k] == match[k];
                }
                else {
                    // missing key we needed
                    allMatch = false;
                }
            }
            return allMatch;
        });
    }
});

// call from native, match by string / value.
var r = Array.where(a, { name: 'bob' });
console.log('native, value match string', r);
r = Array.where(a, { age: 31 });
console.log('native, value match number', r);

// call from prototype, match by function callback
r = a.where({
    name: function startsWith(value, key){
        return value.indexOf('joh') === 0;
    }
});

console.log('proto, single fn', r);

// multiple matches combos
r = a.where({
    job: function hasAJob(job){
        return !!job.length;
    },
    age: function(age){
        return age > 35;
    },
    colour: 'red'
});

console.log('multiple matches combos', r);

this provides a flexible enough way to iterate your collection of objects.
in action: http://jsfiddle.net/c8gaxkny/
have a look at this fun thing i did ages ago - allows you to use CSS-like expressions to find objects in your array:
http://epitome-mvc.github.io/Epitome/#epitomecollection/find
code is at https://github.com/epitome-mvc/Epitome/blob/master/src/epitome-collection.js#L220

A: You could use var foundContacts = arrayWithObjects.filter(... and Object.some() to do that:

Object.some():
  Returns true if at least one value in the object satisfies the provided testing function.

var foundContacts = arrayWithObjects.filter(function(object){
   return Object.some(object, function(value, key) {
       return value.indexOf(searchTerm) > -1;
   });
});

This way you map the initial array and dont have to iterate all keys of the object since Object.some returns early when a matching item is found.

Photo blogger and roaster Steve Ford was traded from team Ecco to team Ritual for Drew Caitlin and a bag of coffee to be named later. Details of the across the bay blockbuster are still mum.
Rumors of a Ryan Brown (Ritual) for Aleco (Stumptown) trade still swirl but appear unlikely in the wake of this deal. With a starting rotation bolstered by the addition of crafty veteran Ford, it relieves the pressure on rookie Owens and the oft injured Brown. It is rumored team Ritual will now be looking for an acquisition to bolster it's offense.
and now back to your normal non sucka free program of things that actually make sense.

Q: Spring 3 Annotations I can't get spring annotations to work at all, I'm just trying to get the simplest thing to work...
.../mycontext/something -> invokes method:
@RequestMapping(value = "/something")
@ResponseBody
public String helloWorld() {
    System.out.println("hello world");
    return "Hello World";
}

My main problem is no matter how hard I try, I can't find a complete SIMPLE example of the configuration files needed, every spring tutorial is filled with junk, I just one one controller to handle a request with a mapping and can't get it to work
does anyone know of a simple and complete spring example.  pet-clinic is no good, it's way too complicated, I have a tiny basic use case and it's proving to be a real pain to get working (this always happens with Spring)

A: You should try Spring Roo. It will generate a simple Spring application for you using simple commands and then you can incrementally extend it. It is a great tool for learning Spring as well as for rapid application development.
You can also find several examples of Spring 3.0 MVC framework.

A: the absolute simplest alternative if you're familiar with Eclipse is to use SpringSource Tool Suite (Eclipse plugins)
This product has a tcServer bundled inside.
By default, STS will start with "dashboard" page in the editor window. From here, you can click on creating a controller as demonstrated by this screenshot:

This is a quite simple controller and all you have to do to get it deployed on the bundled tcServer (Tomcat with some extra management features) is to click "next" a few times in the wizard.
That's a very good starting point for doing your own testing!

A: I'd recommend you checkout some of projects from here
and try going trough book spring in action(manning) they give very good example on how to use aspects
or refer to this question

A: I endorse this blog post,Layered architecture with Hibernate and Spring. It was a great help for me when I tried to move from the declared xml approach to annotations. It contains the usages of annotations in Entity, Dao and Service layers.


Our recent experiences with the West Virginians for Reliability front guys, reminded me of a post I did last July titled "The System Is Not Outdated, Just Misused". The post contains a link to an article by Eric Lerner in the journal The Industrial Physicist that explains the reasons why there are problems with today's transmission grid.
Lerner presents the science, not the propaganda. What does Lerner say? He says that deregulation engineered by big energy traders has caused current grid problems, not old lines or inadequate capacity. We have plenty of transmission capacity to meet our electrical needs. We don't have capacity for energy traders who are bent on using our grid to generate new sources of profit.
Here is a link to the article. See for yourself.
So if the power companies want West Virginia land owners like the Ives to "get over it," is this because there is some great national interest in grid reliability?
So Barbarados [ph] commercial office people deserve a great deal of credit. The Energy Trading Group has been conservative but successful.
It really looks like Mr. Morris supports the national interest (sarcasm alert). The AEP Energy Trading Group, the most profitable division of AEP in 2009, is based in Barbados so it doesn't have to pay US taxes.
So West Virginia land owners can rest assured that they are giving up their land for a "higher interest", but that isn't the national interest. The ones benefiting from TrAIL and PATH are the tax dodging power companies like AEP.
No state or federal agency has yet done an independent analysis of PJM Interconnection's claims about the need for the PATH power line. Now we have such an analysis in the form of written testimony filed in the VA SCC case by Robert Fagan, Hyde Merrill and George Loehr, leading national experts on transmission operation and grid reliability.
Richard Klein, a consultant to community groups based in Maryland, has just written an excellent summary of their testimony with a point by point comparison to the claims made by PJM/AEP/Allegheny in their public statements and PSC applications.
If you want to get up to speed quickly on what independent experts say about PATH, Klein's summary will do it for you. Here is a link to Klein's summary.
Klein also shows clearly how the current state PSC processes do not do a very good job of assessing the value or feasibility of projects like PATH. He calls for a much more comprehensive energy planning process at the state level to protect citizens and rate payers from corporate boondoggles and federal interference.
If you want to educate your local legislators, county commissioners and newspapers about the PATH situation, download Klein's report and print copies for them. All of us who are trying to stop PATH need to get this information in front of anyone who will read it.
I have included a link to Klein's report in the right hand column under Educate Yourself About the Facts so you can find it quickly in the future.
Yesterday was the deadline set by the WV PSC for all pleadings concerning the dismissal or delay of the PATH case. Two pleadings stand out.
AEP/Allegheny "revised" their "proposal" once again. Here is a link to their "revision." The PSC's "untenable morass" comment in its order last week appears to have had an impact on the power companies. They have dropped their "conditions" and stated they no longer want to bifurcate the case schedule. They couldn't just drop it completely, though, because they included a reference to it in a footnote.
The power companies also accepted the PSC staff's recommendation to extend the case deadline by 247 days, not the 217 days they initially requested. The PSC staff, although willing to accept delay, is still insisting on dismissal as the best solution to the problem that the power companies have created in Maryland.
The other excellent pleading that you should read was filed by the Sierra Club/WV Highlands Conservancy. Here is the link to the memorandum filed by the SC/WVHC. The memorandum makes a clear and detailed argument that the power companies created the current mess by failing to answer the MD PSC's questions promptly and clearly and should not be allowed to dictate the terms of a solution.
SC/WVHC also point out that their expert testimony in the VA SCC case that is now public utterly destroys claims by PJM/AEP/Allegheny that PATH is needed. Delaying the WV case, when we have no idea what the power companies plan to do in Maryland, makes no sense. Delay only gives PJM and the power companies time to "adjust" their "planning" to address the killer evidence presented by independent engineers Robert Fagan, Hyde Merrill and George Loehr.
SC/WVHC say in their memorandum that we should start all over with a revised application in all three states. SC/WVHC state that power company claims that they will file something somewhere by December 31 is just more smoke and mirrors and does nothing to resolve any of the problems created by the power companies in Maryland.
The best solution would be to dismiss applications in WV and VA and let the power companies re-apply when they have told us what they will do in MD.
Expert testimony on PATH by electrical grid engineer Hyde Merrill has just been filed with the East Virginia State Corporation Commission. Here is a link to Mr. Merrill's testimony.
If you are an intervenor in the WV PSC PATH case, you need to read Merrill's testimony carefully. You have been reading for the last year on The Power Line that PATH is not needed. Now, Merrill's testimony tells us why.
November 17 is the deadline for all intervenors to file their written direct testimony in the WV PSC case. If you do not take advantage of Mr. Merrill's facts in your own testimony, you will have missed a major opportunity to stop PATH in WV.
Merrill's testimony will also be filed in the WV case by Nov. 17, but the early filing in East Virginia gives WV intervenors access to his arguments now.
PJM has recently revised its estimates of projected power flows in its CETO models downward, but has not adjusted its justification for PATH. These lower power flows, if included in the PATH plan, would eliminate several of the NERC violations PJM is claiming.
Even PJM's revised CETO values are too high, compared with similar projections used in New York and New England. Merrill points to these higher than industry standard power flow estimates as the main way that PJM has rigged its argument for PATH. Correct CETO values used in PJM modeling would completely eliminate all NERC violations claimed by PJM engineers in the PATH application.
PJM applies NERC standards incorrectly in its identification of NERC violations.
By including only demand management actions that have cleared PJM markets, PJM has completely inaccurate power demand estimates for time periods more than three years in the future. PJM essentially eliminates the reductions demand management after 2012, resulting in much higher power flow estimates that would be expected.
PJM changed its assessment of voltage instability between 2008 and 2009 which resulted in identification of voltage drops appearing for the first time in the PATH argument. Merrill could find no explanation of why this change was made in PJM's testimony and believes that the changes may have been the result of calculation errors.
Merrill shows clearly how PJM has rigged how it counts or excludes new east coast power generators to suit its conclusion that PATH is needed. Merrill shows how PJM undercounts new generators that would solve east coast power shortages, but overcounts generators to show how existing circuits are overloaded.
Investment of a few hundred million dollars in reactive power capacitors and transformers, much of which PJM is already planning to do even if PATH were built, would solve most of PJM's NERC violations and all of its voltage instability problems.
Intervenors are the only way that citizens of West Virginia can really participate in the PSC decision process. We intervenors have an obligation to make the best case we can against PATH. Hyde Merrill gives us that opportunity.
Now it's up to us to use what he has provided.
Experts in the East Virginia PATH case before the State Corporation Commission have filed testimony providing a detailed description of why PJM Interconnection's reasoning about PATH is wrong.
Engineer George Loehr is one of the leading grid reliability experts in the US. In his testimony, Loehr states that PATH is more about profit for AEP/Allegheny than reliability.
PATH would effectively provide a subsidy to existing and future western [PJM] generators – access to the lucrative eastern load centers without cost to themselves. Conversely, the western subsidies would place eastern generators at a significant disadvantage.
Ken Ward has more information about the testimony on Coal Tattoo, plus links to the testimony of Loehr, engineer Hyde Merrill and engineer/economist Robert Fagan.
Read this remarkable testimony if you want to know in detail why AEP, Allegheny and PJM are wrong about their claimed need for PATH.
In 2008, consulting engineer Hyde Merrill provided testimony to the East VA State Corporation Commission concerning Allegheny Energy/PJM's TrAIL project that was planned for PA, WV and VA. Mr. Merrill was testifying as an expert on behalf of the Piedmont Environmental Council, a strong opponent of the line.
Mr. Merrill completely refutes all the arguments presented by Allegheny Energy and Dominion Virginia Power and PJM in support of the proposed power line.
Mr. Merrill's testimony will give PATH intervenors in the WV PSC case a good look at one expert's testimony in the case.
While Mr. Merrill's testimony is somewhat technical, with a little patience, the general reader can begin to understand why both PATH and TrAIL are not needed, even using PJM Interconnection's own data and now refuted predictions of power demand.
This testimony was about the impact of the TrAIL line specifically on East VA, but almost all the data and arguments are a part of the PATH case as well.
Last summer, George Loehr, an electrical engineer with 45 years experience managing grid operations in New York and the eastern US, testified before the Senate Energy Committee.
That testimony is a clear, complete and succinct statement of why PATH is not a cure for grid reliability problems. In fact, as Mr. Loehr demonstrates, PATH will create many new reliability problems.
The passage of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct) was heralded as a major step forward in improving the grid and reducing the likelihood of large blackouts. One drawback, however, is its almost exclusive focus on transmission. It does not address generating capacity sited close to the load centers, or demand side management programs. These strategies are often preferable to transmission as a means of improving overall system reliability. They have the added benefit of adding to the system's installed reserve margin. My own experience over the years has indicated that a certain minimum amount of capacity – in the neighborhood of 80% of the peak demand – must be located within a load center to provide voltage/reactive power support, black start capability, network security, etc.
If we wish to address electric power energy issues, we must address them in a more comprehensive manner. At present, the EPAct, and policies adopted thereunder, encourages the construction of new transmission not needed for reliability. It subsidizes remote generators, discriminates against local and distributed generation and demand side resources, forces many customers to pay for someone else's benefits, increases the likelihood of blackouts, and makes our grids more vulnerable to terrorist attack.
Every single point that Mr. Loehr makes in these introductory paragraphs illustrates why PATH will fail to do what PJM Interconnection and the power companies claim.


There's a lot of talk about smartwatches recently, not just because Apple has well and truly entered the market, but because there are questions on whether or not these are actually watches. Wonder no more, because one of the originals is about to make a watch, as TAG gears up for Android Wear.
Three of the world's most known names have assembled this week in Switzerland for Baselworld, one of the world's largest watch expos, coming together to make an announcement about smartwatches, of all things.
The news was made at a joint press conference between TAG Heuer, Intel, and Google to say that TAG was working on a product that would bring the Android Wear smartwatch platform to a watch designed by the Swiss watch experts at TAG.
From what we understand, Google and Intel will be providing the guts of this concept, while TAG will be looking at the style and design, bringing the watch together in a way we haven't seen previously with a smartwatch, as a watch company makes a smartwatch and not a technology company.
"Swiss watchmaking and Silicon Valley is a marriage of technological innovation with watchmaking credibility," said Jean-Claude Biver, CEO of TAG Heuer.
Little is known about the watch TAG, Intel, and Google will be creating, and there's no firm release date either, though we can't imagine it will take longer than a year or two for the three companies to put the work in and come up with a first generation of product that not only looks the part, but does what we expect big well-made watches to do, and that is outlast other products in this category.
"As we work to enable technology experiences that provide greater utility and value to people, Intel is confident that a collective approach will inspire new innovation in wearable technology," said Michael Bell, General Manager of Intel's New Devices Group.

Live review: Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds – Riverstage, Brisbane – 25/1/17
January 27, 2017 February 7, 2017 / Paul McBride
"It's always so f**king hot in Brisbane," says Nick Cave, four songs into the set. "How do you even tolerate it?"
The answer to that question probably includes tonight's audience being willing to endure the heat and a whole lot more for the chance to spend the night before a public holiday in the company of one of Australia's finest artists (somehow the words 'musician', 'singer' or 'songwriter' fall pathetically short when applied to Cave).
It may be hot, hot, hot at Brisbane's Riverstage, but such trivialities melt into the background when faced with the all-conquering qualities of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds; whose latest album 'Skeleton Tree' is getting its first airing in these parts. For that reason, themes of loss and death are particularly heavy in the set, but nothing exists in a single dimension with Cave. Despite the darkness, frustration, and anger in much of his music, the show is a remarkably humorous affair. Cave urges the audience to write to the City Council over the "fucking absurd" 10pm curfew, playfully shouts "Sexual harassment!" when a female audience member gets a bit too hands-on, makes a subtle dig at that Trump guy, and gloriously messes up his vocal timing at a couple of points: all adding to the enjoyment of the spectacle.
An opening trio of 'Anthrocene', 'Jesus Alone' and 'Magneto' confirm it is going to be a special night, before a slithering and emphatic 'Higgs Boson Blues' provides an early highlight, followed by the towering 'From Her to Eternity'. Cave dominates the stage as he slides left and right, arms gesticulating wildly and face contorted with intensity. At almost 60 he is still as magnetic and charismatic a frontman as you are likely to encounter, adding to the near-ritualistic nature of the show.
'Tupelo', 'Jubilee Street', 'The Ship Song' and 'Into My Arms' are up next, with Cave describing the latter as the best version they have done in 15 years, and, with a cheeky smirk, asks the audience to "leave it to the professionals" when song requests are hollered. 'Red Right Hand' brings perhaps the biggest highlight of the second half of the show, and sees Cave once again getting among his worshippers at front-and-centre.
'Skeleton Tree' is the obvious closer, and with one eye on a clock showing 9:50pm, the band reappear quickly to run through 'Mermaids' and an apocalyptic 'Stagger Lee'. There's a lingering question over whether the "fucking absurd" curfew has robbed us of at least one or two more tracks, but if the feeling in the chests of several thousand people leaving the Riverstage isn't 100% gig-going satisfaction, I don't know what is.

Ocean acidification stress index for shellfish (OASIS): Linking Pacific oyster larval survival and exposure to variable carbonate chemistry regimes
Published 24 July 2018	Science Leave a Comment
Tags: biological response, chemistry, laboratory, methods, mollusks, North Pacific, survival
Understanding larval bivalve responses to variable regimes of seawater carbonate chemistry requires realistic quantification of physiological stress. Based on a degree-day modeling approach, we developed a new metric, the ocean acidification stress index for shellfish (OASIS), for this purpose. OASIS integrates over the entire larval period the instantaneous stress associated with deviations from published sensitivity thresholds to aragonite saturation state (ΩAr) while experiencing variable carbonate chemistry. We measured survival to D-hinge and pre-settlement stage of four Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) cohorts with different histories of carbonate chemistry exposure at the Whiskey Creek Hatchery, Netarts Bay, OR, to test the utility of OASIS as a stress metric and document the effects of buffering seawater in mitigating acute and chronic exposure to ocean acidification. Each cohort was divided into four groups and reared under the following conditions: 1) stable, buffered seawater for the entire larval period; 2) stable, buffered seawater for the first 48 hours, then naturally variable, unbuffered seawater; 3) stable, unbuffered seawater for the first 48 hours, then buffered seawater; and 4) stable, unbuffered seawater for the first 48 hours, then naturally variable, unbuffered seawater. Patterns in Netarts Bay carbonate chemistry were dominated by seasonal upwelling at the time of the experimental work, resulting in naturally highly variable ΩAr for the larvae raised in the unbuffered treatments. Two of the four cohorts showed strongly positive responses to buffering in survival to 48 hours; three of the four, in survival to pre-settlement. OASIS accurately predicted survival for two of the three cohorts tested (the fourth excluded due to other environmental factors), suggesting that this new metric could be used to better understand larval bivalve survival in naturally variable environments. OASIS may also be useful to an array of diverse stakeholders with increasing access to highly resolved temporal measurements of carbonate chemistry.

Assessing the impacts of ocean acidification upon tropical tuna
Published 3 April 2014	Science Leave a Comment
Tags: biological response, fish, laboratory, morphology, reproduction, survival
Increasing concentrations of CO2 in the Earth's atmosphere (IPCC 2007) are causing a gradual warming and acidification of the Earth's oceans (e.g. Barnett et al. 2005; Caldeira and Wickett 2003; Feely et al. 2004). Both warming and acidification have the potential to affect the distribution and population dynamics of many marine organisms (IPCC 2007; Raven et al. 2005; Fabry et al. 2008). Significant advances in knowledge have been made over the last decade that have advanced understanding of how increasing ocean acidity will impact nearshore and coral reef ecosystems (Fabry et al. 2008). Our understanding about the effects of acidification on pelagic ecosystems, however, remains rudimentary. In the Pacific Ocean, improving our knowledge on the possible impacts on the pelagic environment is important, as the Pacific's tuna populations are of one of the largest and most valuable fisheries in the world (Williams and Terawasi 2009). The income derived from tuna fisheries provides a significant contribution to the economies of many Pacific Island countries and territories (Gillett 2009). To ensure such economic benefits are maintainedthrough the sustainable management of this fishery requires an understanding of not only fishery impacts, but impacts of other factors upon population biomass and structure over time. While fishery scientists are now attempting to predict how ocean warming will affect Pacific tuna populations (Lehodey et al. 2010, 2013), no one has previously investigated how ocean acidification (OA) may affect these species and associated fisheries.

Mangrove habitats provide refuge from climate change for reef-building corals
Tags: abundance, adaptation, biological response, chemistry, corals, field, light, multiple factors, North Atlantic, otherprocess, salinity, survival, temperature
Risk analyses indicate that more than 90% of the world's reefs will be threatened by climate change and local anthropogenic impacts by the year 2030 under "business as usual" climate scenarios. Increasing temperatures and solar radiation cause coral bleaching that has resulted in extensive coral mortality. Increasing carbon dioxide reduces seawater pH, slows coral growth, and may cause loss of reef structure. Management strategies include establishment of marine protected areas with environmental conditions that promote reef resiliency. However, few resilient reefs have been identified, and resiliency factors are poorly defined.
Here we characterize the first natural, non-reef, coral refuge from thermal stress and ocean acidification and identify resiliency factors for mangrove–coral habitats. We measured diurnal and seasonal variations in temperature, salinity, photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), and seawater chemistry; characterized substrate parameters; and examined water circulation patterns in mangrove communities where scleractinian corals are growing attached to and under mangrove prop roots in Hurricane Hole, St. John, US Virgin Islands. Additionally, we inventoried the coral species and quantified incidences of coral bleaching, mortality and recovery for two major reef-building corals, Colpophyllia natans and Diploria labyrinthiformis, growing in mangrove shaded and exposed (unshaded) areas.
At least 33 species of scleractinian corals were growing in association with mangroves. Corals were thriving in low-light (more than 70% attenuation of incident PAR) from mangrove shading and at higher temperatures than nearby reef tract corals. A higher percentage of C. natans colonies was living shaded by mangroves, and no shaded colonies bleached. Fewer D. labyrinthiformis colonies were shaded by mangroves, however more unshaded colonies bleached. A combination of substrate and habitat heterogeniety, proximity of different habitat types, hydrographic conditions, and biological influences on seawater chemistry generate chemical conditions that buffer against ocean acidification. This previously undocumented refuge for corals provides evidence for adaptation of coastal organisms and ecosystem transition due to recent climate change. Identifying and protecting other natural, non-reef coral refuges is critical for sustaining corals and other reef species into the future.

Effects of elevated CO2 in the early life stages of summer flounder, Paralichthys dentatus, and potential consequences of ocean acidification (update)
Tags: biological response, fish, laboratory, morphology, multiple factors, North Atlantic, reproduction, survival, temperature
The limited available evidence about effects on marine fishes of high CO2 and associated acidification of oceans suggests that effects will differ across species, be subtle, and may interact with other stressors. This report is on the responses of an array of early life history features of summer flounder (Paralichthys dentatus), an ecologically and economically important flatfish of the inshore and nearshore waters of the Mid-Atlantic Bight (USA), to experimental manipulation of CO2 levels. Relative survival of summer flounder embryos in local ambient conditions (775 μatm pCO2, 7.8 pH) was reduced to 48% when maintained at intermediate experimental conditions (1808 μatm pCO2, 7.5 pH), and to 16% when maintained at the most elevated CO2 treatment (4714 ppm pCO2, 7.1 pH). This pattern of reduced survival of embryos at high-CO2 levels at constant temperature was consistent among offspring of three females used as experimental subjects. No reduction in survival with CO2 was observed for larvae during the first four weeks of larval life (experiment ended at 28 d post-hatching (dph) when larvae were initiating metamorphosis). Estimates of sizes, shapes, and developmental status of larvae based on images of live larvae showed larvae were initially longer and faster growing when reared at intermediate- and high-CO2 levels. This pattern of longer larvae – but with less energy reserves at hatching – was expressed through the first half of the larval period (14 dph). Larvae from the highest-CO2 conditions initiated metamorphosis at earlier ages and smaller sizes than those from intermediate- and ambient-CO2 conditions. Tissue damage was evident in larvae as early as 7 dph from both elevated-CO2 levels. Damage included dilation of liver sinusoids and veins, focal hyperplasia on the epithelium, and separation of the trunk muscle bundles. Cranio-facial features changed with CO2 levels in an age-dependent manner. Skeletal elements of larvae from ambient-CO2 environments were comparable or smaller than those from elevated-CO2 environments when younger (7 and 14 dph) but were larger at developmental stage at older ages (21 to 28 dph), a result consistent with the accelerated size-development trajectory of larvae at higher-CO2 environments based on analysis of external features. The degree of alterations in the survival, growth, and development of early life stages of summer flounder due to elevated-CO2 levels suggests that this species will be increasingly challenged by future ocean acidification. Further experimental studies on marine fishes and comparative analyses among those studies are warranted in order to identify the species, life stages, ecologies, and responses likely to be most sensitive to increased levels of CO2 and acidity in future ocean waters. A strategy is proposed for achieving these goals.

Experimental influence of pH on the early life-stages of sea urchins II: increasing parental exposure times gives rise to different responses
Published 19 February 2014	Science Leave a Comment
Tags: adaptation, biological response, echinoderms, laboratory, methods, morphology, otherprocess, reproduction, survival
Many studies into the responses of early life-stages to ocean acidification utilise offspring obtained from parents reared under present-day conditions. Their offspring are directly introduced to altered-pH conditions. This study determined whether this approach is suitable by pre-exposing parent sea urchins (Psammechinus miliaris) to altered seawater pH (~1000 μatm) for several durations, spawning them and rearing their offspring to settlement. Parents acclimated when exposed to low seawater pH for extended periods (>42 d). Longer adult pre-exposures reduced larval survival and less competent offspring were removed from populations earlier than in controls. Control offspring were larger during earlier development stages (2–7 d), but smaller during later development stages (14 + d) than offspring reared under low pH conditions. Juvenile settlement levels were similar across all treatments. After 17 d, offspring sourced from parents pre-exposed to low pH for 42 and 70 d were larger than those pre-exposed for 28 d and ambient sourced offspring directly transferred to low pH. These different responses show that the use of ambient derived offspring utilised in many studies is likely not an ideal approach when assessing larval development responses via morphometric measurements and survivorship prior to settlement. This study also suggests that calcifying organisms have capacities to acclimate and possibly adapt towards conditions beyond natural rates of ocean acidification.

Population trajectories for the Antarctic bivalve Laternula elliptica: identifying demographic bottlenecks in differing environmental futures
Published 29 January 2014	Science Leave a Comment
Tags: abundance, Antarctic, biological response, community, modeling, mollusks, multiple factors, physiology, reproduction, survival, temperature
The world's oceans are changing, and dramatic shifts have been documented in the Southern Ocean. The consequences of these shifts to coastal benthic organisms are difficult to predict at present, as ocean warming may increase primary production and food resources for benthic consumers, whilst OA may have negative impacts that differentially affect various species and life stages. A model was developed to investigate how different scenarios of change may influence population size of the Antarctic bivalve Laternula elliptica. The model describes potential implications of both pH and temperature change on survivorship and reproductive output of a population of this bivalve species in McMurdo Sound, Ross Sea. Implications of increases and decreases in mortality rate across different life stages of the population (early, mid and late) were assessed. Additionally, effects on energetic resource partitioning and dictating reproductive potential (RP) were also investigated. Significant declines in RP, due to increased basal metabolic demand, were associated with even relatively small changes in temperature and pH, resulting in populations declining to 25 % of the starting equilibrium density within 60 years. As L. elliptica is a pivotal species to the functionality of the Antarctic coastal benthic ecosystem, wide spread repercussions are expected if populations are impacted as the model predicts. Although further model development is required to explore the ecosystem implications of the population decline described in this paper, this work allows a better understanding of the consequences of change as soon as data on the direction and magnitude of the changes affecting Antarctic seas become available.

Multiple abiotic changes and species interactions mediate responses to climate change on rocky shores (PhD thesis)
Tags: abundance, biological response, community, echinoderms, modeling, mollusks, morphology, multiple factors, North Pacific, performance, salinity, survival, temperature
Anthropogenic climate change poses a serious threat to biodiversity. Accurate predictions of the ecological consequences of future abiotic change will require a broad perspective that takes into account multiple climate variables, species-specific responses, and intra- and interspecific dynamics. I addressed these issues in the context of a marine rocky intertidal community to determine how abiotic and biotic factors can mediate the effects of climate change. I began with two studies on the organismal-level effects of multiple abiotic variables. In the first study, I found that acute exposure to low salinity reduced the survival of littorine snails facing thermal stress, but that ocean acidification (OA) had no such effect. In a second study, I showed that sustained exposure to increased temperature and OA had positive and additive effects on the growth and feeding of the purple ochre sea star. These findings demonstrate that studies of multiple climate variables will be important not only to identify additive and non-additive effects, but also to determine which climate variables will be detrimental for a given species. Next, I measured how species-specific responses to climate change can alter species interactions. By quantifying the effects of body size on the feeding behaviours of sea stars preying on mussels, I demonstrated that climate-driven changes in body size can have profound impacts on the strength of this interaction. Finally, I investigated how population-level responses to multiple abiotic variables can be affected by the presence of an interacting species. I built a predator-prey model that simulates the ecologically important interaction between the purple ochre sea star and its preferred prey, mussels. Using empirical estimates of sea star and mussel responses to increased temperature and OA, I simulated their interaction under various climate scenarios. I found that predation exacerbated the effects of climate change on mussel populations, and that climate change increased the strength of the sea star-mussel interaction. My work demonstrates that the effects of climate change will likely be mediated by a combination of biotic and abiotic factors, and that these factors should be considered when making predictions about the ecological consequences of climate change.

Chapter XXII.—Studied ambiguity of Plato.
Plato accordingly having learned this in Egypt, and being greatly taken with what was said about one God, did indeed consider it unsafe to mention the name of Moses, on account of his teaching the doctrine of one only God, for he dreaded the Areopagus; but what is very well expressed by him in his elaborate treatise, the Timæus, he has written in exact correspondence with what Moses said regarding God, though he has done so, not as if he had learned it from him, but as if he were expressing his own opinion. For he said, "In my opinion, then, we must first define what that is which exists eternally, and has no generation,25512551 That is, "is not produced or created; has no birth." and what that is which is always being generated, but never really is." Does not this, ye men of Greece, seem to those who are able to understand the matter to be one and the same thing, saving only the difference of the article? For Moses said, "He who is," and Plato, "That which is." But either of the expressions seems to apply to the ever-existent God. For He is the only one who eternally exists, and has no generation. What, then, that other thing is which is contrasted with the ever-existent, and of which he said, "And what that is which is always being generated, but never really is," we must attentively consider. For we shall find him clearly and evidently saying that He who is unbegotten is eternal, but that those that are begotten and made are generated and perish25522552 Or, "are born and die." —as he said of the same class, "gods of gods, of whom I am maker"—for he speaks in the following words: "In my opinion, then, we must first define what that is which is always existent and has no birth, and what that is which is always being generated but never really is. The former, indeed, which is apprehended by reflection combined with reason, always exists in the same way;25532553 κατὰ ταὐτά "according to the same things," i.e., in eternal immutability. while the latter, on the other hand, is conjectured by opinion formed by the perception of the senses unaided by reason, since it never really is, but is coming into being and perishing." These expressions declare to those who can rightly understand them the death and destruction of the gods that have been brought into being. And I think it necessary to attend to this also, that Plato never names him the creator, but the fashioner25542554 Or, "demiurge or maker." of the gods, although, in the opinion of Plato, there is considerable difference between these two. For the creator creates the creature by his own capability and power, being in need of nothing else; but the fashioner frames his production when he has received from matter the capability for his work.
2551 That is, "is not produced or created; has no birth."
2552 Or, "are born and die."
2553 κατὰ ταὐτά "according to the same things," i.e., in eternal immutability.
2554 Or, "demiurge or maker."

Mississauga Man Arrested Following Child Luring Investigation in Burlington
Traffic Delays Expected in the GTA Due to Flooding
The Iconic Port Credit Lighthouse is About to Get a New Look
by Ashley Newport on October 29, 2017
If you're big fan of Port Credit's iconic lighthouse, you might be happy to hear that the long-standing structure is about to enjoy a very significant enhancement.
Recently, Mississauga City Council agreed to commit $6,000 to the upcoming launch of a project that involves lighting the popular lighthouse to mark holidays, events and other special occasions.
Karen Priest, president at Diamond Marketing and Communications Inc., recently appeared before council to ask the city to contribute the remaining $6,000 needed to complete the $41,000 project.
"Port Credit is recognized as a tourist destination and the lighthouse is the Port Credit icon. It's a visual centerpiece and with the upcoming waterfront renewal process, it's something unique to Port Credit and it needs attention," Priest said.
Priest went on to say the idea was spurred by discussions with representatives of industrial lighting company Champion Commercial Products—a company that she says has experience with the CN Tower.
"Think of the CN Tower, we too can have a lighthouse LED light show that celebrates historical events, our local festivals and events, as well as milestones," said Priest.
Going forward, the lighthouse will be lit up in various colours depending on the holiday or event.
Naturally, red and green will be used at Christmas and orange on Halloween.
"Pink could be for breast cancer [month] or Mother's Day," Priest added. "Yellow could be Easter, and we could add some purple in there as well."
Priest also said that blue could be used to celebrate the Leafs, Jays or Steelheads and that Mardi Gras colours can be used during the Southside Shuffle music festival.
"We have developed a calendar for approximately 50 different events so far," she told council. "We can celebrate the anniversary of Vimy Ridge, we can recognize Canadian Multiculturalism Day, Remembrance Day or, more recently, purple for child abuse prevention."
While the entire project will cost slightly over $41,000 to execute, Priest has managed to secure the lion's share of the necessary funding from community organizations. The organizations who provided funds include Birnie Electric, the Port Credit BIA, the Port Credit Community Foundation and the Port Credit West Village Partners.
City council voted unanimously to commit the remaining $6,000 to the project after the motion was moved by Councillor Jim Tovey.
Councillors Pat Saito and Carolyn Parrish also spoke out in favour of the initiative.
"I personally think it's a great idea, we promote through Mississauga Tourism the Lighthouse as one of our prime locations to visit in the City of Mississauga," said Saito. "It's on our website, it's in our visitor guide. Given the donations you received, I think $6,000 is a very small amount."
Priest said the Port Credit BIA will maintain the project going forward.
The lighting should begin on Dec. 2 at the Christmas at the Lighthouse celebration in Port Credit.

Q: Vue-3 sort List A-Z of v-for in v-for I am trying to sort the following v-for list alphabetically (i.e., A-Z). I am aware of the following computed property method used to sort v-for lists alphabetically;
sortedList() {
            const res = []
            this.itemtwo.song.forEach(data => {
                data.albums.forEach(album => {
                    album.songsinalbum.forEach((song) => {
                        res.push(song)
                    })
                })
            })

            return res.sort((a, b) => {
                if (a.song > b.song) return 1
                else return -1
            })
        }

However, I need this to be done on a v-for within a v-for, since I need the data from the first v-for for vue-router use. If I use the above computed property, I cannot access the corresponding data from higher up in my data structure hierarchy;
Here is my data structure;
export const datatwo = [
{id: "1", artist: "Yaakov Shwekey", dateadded: "07/04/2022", artistroute: "/yaakovshwekey",
albums: [{album:'Shomati', songsinalbum: [
        { song : 'MaMaMa', keys: [
            {key: "Am"},
            {key: "Em"}
        ]},
        { song : 'Al Naharos Bavel', keys: [
            {key: "Am"},
            {key: "Em"}
        ]},
        { song : 'Levinyomin', keys: [
            {key: "Am"},
            {key: "Em"}
        ]}, ]},

        {album : 'Simcha', songsinalbum: [
            { song : 'Kolot', keys: [
                {key: "Am"},
                {key: "Em"}
            ]},
            { song : 'Kalu Kol Hakotzim', keys: [
                {key: "Am"},
                {key: "Em"}
            ]},
            { song : 'Vehi Sheamdah', keys: [
                {key: "Am"},
                {key: "Em"}
            ]}, ]},   ]
},]

Here is my current v-for;

                        <router-link v-if="albumname == item.album" class="routerlink" :key="item.songsinalbum" :to="'/albumselected/' + item.album + '/artist/' + album.artist">

{{itemtwo.song}}

                        </router-link>

Not sure if this is possible, would really appreciate help. Thank you.

A: One could theoretically use

          a.song > b.song ? 1 : -1
        )"
        :key="i"
      >
        <router-link
          class="routerlink"
          :key="item.songsinalbum"
          :to="'/albumselected/' + item.album + '/artist/' + album.artist"
        >

{{ itemtwo.song }}

        </router-link>

Directly in the template. Or extract the sort function into a method like so: Template:

Script (I would use typescript here to be safe):
const sortFunction = (arr) => {
      return arr.sort((a, b) => {
        if (a.song > b.song) return 1;
        else return -1;
      });
    };

Lastly, and probably the best way would be to mimic the v-for you're looking for into the computed method, as you were attempting. Computed caches so it only changes when the input changes. I'm not exactly sure how often using a regular method solution would rerender. I came up with this solution using computed functions:
You need to create a couple wrapper components to drill down to get the correct items you want, namely the songs. I created a wrapper component for each step down. This may not be the best solution, but I can't think of a better solution In each situation you need the context of each array in order to sort correctly. I believe this solution may be the most performant, but not elegant. Rather than display each of the wrappers on stackoverflow, I submit this sandbox. https://codesandbox.io/s/quirky-cartwright-wfo1ot In each, you can see that I drill down into each own context. You can style how you see fit, but at the end of it, each albums' album will correctly sort the songs alphabetically. However, even this solution might be beat out by simply sorting in the template, I'd rather just clean up the sort function and use it in the template if it's too long of a process.


A former President of the Auckland Malayali Samajam has appealed to all New Zealander to extend their financial support to help victims of the devastating floods that ravaged the State of Kerala last month.
Sasi Nambissan, who currently works in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates is in daily contact with a number of his friends throughout New Zealand coordinating efforts to bring relief to the people of his home state who are still under a state of shock and despair.
He visited Kerala soon after the floods and has had first-hand information about the extent of destruction wrought by torrential rains and floods.
"The relief work being undertaken is on a massive scale. I am grateful to our people at the grassroots level who are on the forefront of relief efforts.
"Our young people in Auckland and Rotorua, including Dijo John Thottappally, Justin Matthew Kavapurackal, Nithin and Jomin Antony have been working relentlessly to mobilise funds for flood relief in Kerala. In view of the large extent of the damages and a very large amount required (more than US$ 1 billion, these efforts will continue for sometime," he said.
Mr Nambissan quoted Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan as saying to the 'One-Day State Assembly' on Thursday, September 20, 2018 that about 485 people died in flood-related incidents and that 14 persons were still missing.
"Excessive rainfall, floods and landslides have destroyed roads, bridges, buildings and houses, forcing a large part of the state's population to take shelter in relief camps. According to an Indian Express report, on August 21, at the height of the floods, a total of 1.45 million people belonging to 39.1 million families had to be rushed to nearby relief camps. The latest figure is that there are 59,296 people in 305 relief camps," he said.
Mr Nambissan, who was President of the Auckland Malayali Samajam in 2009 and its Vice-President in 2013-2014, said that more than 100,000 families have lost their homes, belongings and are now living in temporary shelters.
"Many of them have lost their immediate family members and friends. Several are still trapped under mud, fallen buildings. We hope and pray that there would be no more rains and the resultant floods and damages," Mr Nambissan said.

Another report on a fundraising event on Thursday, September 27, 2018 at Kairali Restaurant, 754 Manukau Road, Royal Oaks, Auckland will appear shortly.
