title: In vivo bioreactor

text:
The in vivo bioreactor is a tissue engineering paradigm that uses bioreactor methodology to grow neotissue in vivo that augments or replaces malfunctioning native tissue. Tissue engineering principles are used to construct a confined, artificial bioreactor space in vivo that hosts a tissue scaffold and key biomolecules necessary for neotissue growth. Said space often requires inoculation with pluripotent or specific stem cells to encourage initial growth, and access to a blood source. A blood source allows for recruitment of stem cells from the body alongside nutrient delivery for continual growth. This delivery of cells and nutrients to the bioreactor eventually results in the formation of a neotissue product.

Overview
Conceptually, the in vivo bioreactor was borne from complications in a repair method of bone fracture, bone loss, necrosis, and tumor reconstruction known as bone grafting. Traditional bone grafting strategies require fresh, autologous bone harvested from the iliac crest; this harvest site is limited by the amount of bone that can safely be removed, as well as associated pain and morbidity. Other methods include cadaverous allografts and synthetic options (often made of hydroxyapatite) that have become available in recent years. In response to the question of limited bone sourcing, it has been posited that bone can be grown to fit a damaged region within the body through the application of tissue engineering principles.

Tissue engineering is a biomedical engineering discipline that combines biology, chemistry, and engineering to design neotissue (newly formed tissue) on a scaffold. Tissues scaffolds are functionally identical to the extracellular matrix found, acting as a site upon which regenerative cellular components adsorb to encourage cellular growth. This cellular growth is then artificially stimulated by additive growth factors in the environment that encourage tissue formation. The scaffold is often seeded with stem cells and growth additives to encourage a smooth transition from cells to tissues, and more recently, organs. Traditionally, this method of tissue engineering is performed in vitro, where scaffold components and environmental manipulation recreate in vivo stimuli that direct growth. Environmental manipulation includes changes in physical stimulation, pH, potential gradients, cytokine gradients, and oxygen concentration. The overarching goal of in vitro tissue engineering is to create a functional tissue that is equivalent to native tissue in terms of composition, biomechanical properties, and physiological performance. However, in vitro tissue engineering suffers from a limited ability to mimic in vitro conditions, often leading to inadequate tissue substitutes. Therefore, in vivo tissue engineering has been suggested as a method to circumvent the tedium of environmental manipulation and use native in vivo stimuli to direct cell growth. To achieve in vivo tissue growth, an artificial bioreactor space must be established in which cells may grow. The in vivo bioreactor depends on harnessing the reparative qualities of the body to recruit stem cells into an implanted scaffold, and utilize vasculature to supply all necessary growth components.

Design

Cells
Tissue engineering done in vivo is capable of recruiting local cellular populations into a bioreactor space. Indeed a range of neotissue growth has been shown: bone, cartilage, fat, and muscle. In theory, any tissue type could be grown in this manner if all necessary components (growth factors, environmental and physical ques) are met. Recruitment of stem cells require a complex process of mobilization from their niche, though research suggests that mature cells transplanted upon the bioreactor scaffold can improve stem cell recruitment. These cells secrete growth factors that promote repair and can be co-cultured with stem cells to improve tissue formation.

Scaffolds
Scaffold materials are designed to enhance tissue formation through control of the local and surrounding environments. Scaffolds are critical in regulating cellular growth and provide a volume in which vascularization and stem cell differentiation can occur. Scaffold geometry significantly affects tissue differentiation through physical growth ques. Predicting tissue formation computationally requires theories that link physical growth ques to cell differentiation. Current models rely on mechano-regulation theory, widely shaped by Prendergast et al. for predicting cell growth. Thus a quantitative analysis of geometry and materials commonly used in tissue scaffolds is capable.

Such materials include:

 Porous ceramic and demineralized bone matrix supports
 Coralline cylinders
 Biodegradable material such as poly(α-hydroxy esters)
 Decellularized tissue matrices
 Injectable biomaterials or hydrogels are typically composed of polysaccharides, proteins/peptide mimetics, or synthetic polymers such as (poly(ethylene glycol)).
 Peptide amphiphile (PA) systems are self assembling and can form solid bioactive scaffolds after injection within the body.
 Inert systems have been proven to be adequate for tissue formation. Cartilage formation has occurred by injecting an inert agarose gel beneath the periosteum in a rabbit model, vascularization was restricted.
 fibrin
 Sponges made from collagen

Bioreactors

Methods
Initially, focusing on bone growth, subcutaneous pockets were used for bone prefabrication as a simple in vivo bioreactor model. The pocket is an artificially created space between varying levels of subcutaneous fascia. The location provides regenerative ques to the bioreactor implant but does not rely on pre-existing bone tissue as a substrate. Furthermore, these bioreactors may be wrapped with muscle tissue to encourage vascularization and bone growth. Another strategy is through the use of a periosteal flap wrapped around the bioreactor, or the scaffold itself to create an in vivo bioreactor. This strategy utilizes the guided bone regeneration treatment scheme, and is a safe method for bone prefabrication. These ‘flap’ methods of packing the bioreactor within fascia, or wrapping it in tissue is effective, though somewhat random due to the non-directed vascularization these methods incur. The axial vascular bundle (AVB) strategy requires that an artery and vein are inserted in an in vitro bioreactor to transport growth factors, cells, and remove waste. This ultimately results in extensive vascularization of the bioreactor space and a vast improvement in growth capability. This vascularization, though effective, is limited by the surface contact that it can achieve between the scaffold and the capillaries filling the bioreactor space. Thus, a combination of the flap and AVB techniques can maximize the growth rate and vascular contact of the bioreactor as suggested by Han and Dai, by inserting a vascular bundle into a scaffold wrapped in either musculature or periosteum. If inadequate pre-existing vasculature is present in the growth site due to damage or disease, an arteriovenous loop (AVL) can be used. The AVL strategy requires a surgical connection be made between an artery of vein to form an arteriovenous fistula which is then placed within an in vitro bioreactor space containing a scaffold. A capillary network will form from this loop and accelerate the vascularization of new tissue.

Materials
Materials used in the construction of an in vivo bioreactor space vary widely depending on the type of substrate, type of tissue, and mechanical demands of said tissue being grown. At its simplest, a bioreactor space will be created between tissue layers through the use of hydrogel injections to create a bioreactor space. Early models used an impermeable silicone shroud to encase a scaffold, though more recent studies have begun 3D printing custom bioreactor molds to further enhance the mechanical growth properties of the bioreactors. The choice of bioreactor chamber material generally requires that it is nontoxic and medical grade, examples include: “silicon, polycarbonate, and acrylic polymer”. Recently both Teflon and titanium have been used in the growth of bone. One study utilized Polymethyl methacrylate as a chamber material and 3D printed hollow rectangular blocks. Yet another study pushed the limits of the in vivo bioreactor by proving that the omentum is suitable as a bioreactor space and chamber. Specifically, highly vascularized and functional bladder tissue was grown within the omentum space.

Examples
An example of the implementation of the IVB approach was in the engineering of autologous bone by injecting calcium alginate in a sub-periosteal location.  The periosteum is a membrane that covers the long bones, jawbone, ribs and the skull. This membrane contains an endogenous population of pluripotent cells called the periosteal cells, which are a type of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), which reside in the cambium layer, i.e., the side facing the bone. A key step in the procedure is the elevation of the periosteum without damaging the cambium surface and to ensure this a new technique called hydraulic elevation was developed.

The choice of the sub-periosteum site is used because stimulation of the cambium layer using transforming growth factor–beta resulted in enhanced chondrogenesis, i.e., formation of cartilage. In development the formation of bone can either occur via a Cartilage template initially formed by the MSCs that then gets ossified through a process called endochondral ossification or directly from MSC differentiation to bone via a process termed intra-membranous ossification.  Upon exposure of the periosteal cells to calcium from the alginate gel, these cells become bone cells and start producing bone matrix through the intra-membranous ossification process, recapitulating all steps of bone matrix deposition.  The extension of the IVB paradigm to engineering autologous hyaline cartilage was also recently demonstrated.  In this case, agarose is injected and this triggers local hypoxia, which then results in the differentiation of the periosteal MSCs into articular chondrocytes, i.e. cells similar to those found in the joint cartilage. Since this processes occurs in a relative short period of less than two weeks and cartilage can remodel into bone, this approach might provide some advantages in treatment of both cartilage and bone loss. The IVB concept needs to be however realized in humans and this is currently being undertaken.

title: Utah State Route 228

text:
State Route 228 (SR-228) is a primarily north–south highway located completely within Leeds, Utah, that begins at the northbound off-ramp at an interchange with Interstate 15 (I-15) and runs northeast to another interchange on I-15. There is also a spur that connects with the southbound on-ramp of the southern interchange.

Route description
From its southern terminus at the northbound off-ramp of the interchange on I-15 at exit 22 in Leeds, SR-228 heads northeast, roughly paralleling I-15 along Main Street, until it turns northwest onto Silver Reef Road. After passing under I-15 it reaches it northern terminus at the southbound off-ramp of the interchange with I-15 at exit 23. The spur begins at the southbound on-ramp  at exit 22 and heads southeast along Cemetery Road until it reaches its terminus at South Main Street (SR-228).

History
SR-228 received its designation in 1981 when the existing local roads were granted state highway status by the Utah State Legislature. Originally, the route began with the current spur (Cemetery Road) and then headed northeast along Main Street for the remainder of the current route (including the portion on Silver Reef Road), but did not include any portion of South Main Street south of Cemetery Road. However, sometime prior to 1998, the official designation had been amended to reflect the current route. It was formerly part of U.S. Route 91.

title: Euphrosina Heldina von Dieffenau

text:
Euphrosina Heldina von Dieffenau, or Heldin (died 1636), was a Swedish courtier.

Originally from Germany, she became courtier to Catherine of Sweden, Countess Palatine of Kleeburg in 1590. After the death of Catherine's  mother, Maria of the Palatinate-Simmern, she became the lady-in-waiting, nurse and in practice foster mother of Catherine. She were the confidant of Catherine and the two of them had a close relationship for the rest of their life, sometimes by letters, which are preserved. She married a German officer in Swedish service, but remained in the service of Catherine also after Catherine's marriage as her Mistress of the Robes. She was described as educated and seen as a role model for female nobles in this regard, could speak Latin and was given the task to practice reading and prayer with the heir to the throne, Gustav II Adolf of Sweden, and converse with foreign ambassadors.

title: Opinion polling for the 2014 Indian general election

text:
In the run up to the 2014 Indian general election, various organisations carried out opinion polls to gauge voting intention in India. Results of such polls are displayed in this article. The date range for these opinion polls are from the Jan 2013 to April 2014.  Many organisations have gone on to conduct exit polls and post-poll surveys as well, which too are displayed.

Background
Opinion polls in India can be controversial. These charges include partisan manipulation.

Opinion poll methodology has heavily improved and agencies like CSDS have got it absolutely correct on 16 occasions, roughly correct on 7 occasions and wrong on 4 occasions.

Post-poll surveys, widely published, are fundamentally different from opinion polls. According to a study, post-poll surveys in the past have consistently overestimated BJP seats.

Other findings

The eight largest metropolises in India are considered important because they constitute 31 seats, larger than some regions altogether. In the previous election, the INC-led UPA won 24 of these seats, but the UPA is trailing in these areas. A NDTV opinion poll in Uttar Pradesh indicated that the BJP would win its largest share of seats in the region by winning 40 of the 80 seats. BSP would get 15 seats, SP would get 13 seats, INC-RLD will get 12 seats, amongst its losses will Ajit Singh. The poll also asked those in Gujarat if Modi should run from U.P., of which 67% responded negatively, while those in U.P. said by 62% that they would like to see him run from there. A survey of first time voters suggested Modi was the most popular prime ministerial candidate and Mamata Banerjee was the most popular outside the BJP or INC. Latest survey by CNN-IBN-Lokniti predicts the decline (by 5%) in popularity of Narendra Modi as PM candidate.

Exit polls

Controversy

Polling agencies have been criticised by some political parties, intellectuals and political scholars. One of the limitations in making predictions is the modelling the relationship between vote share and the number of seats.

A controversy erupted when a lowly rated news channel News Express released footage of a sting operation named Operation Polly which alleged that a number of polling agencies were involved in malpractices such as juggling with the statistics and results. The sting was aimed to suggest that Polling agencies are fudging numbers. The allegation included global research Giants like Ipsos and CVoter, whose contract with the India Today group was suspended briefly.

title: The Other Europe

text:
The Other Europe (), whose full name was The Other Europe with Tsipras (L'Altra Europa con Tsipras, AET), was a left-wing political organisation in Italy. It took part in the 2014 European Parliament election in support of Alexis Tsipras, the candidate of the Party of the European Left for President of the European Commission.

History
In the 2014 EP election the list obtained 4.0% of the vote, just above the 4% threshold, and 3 elects to the European Parliament: Eleonora Forenza (Communist Refoundation Party), Curzio Maltese (independent, later Left Ecology Freedom) and Barbara Spinelli (independent). After the election, they joined the European United Left–Nordic Green Left (GUE/NGL) Group. In May 2015 Spinelli left AET, becoming an independent MEP within GUE/NGL.

In July 2015 two senators, Fabrizio Bocchino and Francesco Campanella, elected in the 2013 general election with the Five Star Movement and later founding members of the short-lived Italy Work in Progress party, launched a sub-group named "The Other Europe with Tsipras" within the Mixed Group of the Senate. In March 2016 the sub-group was folded into Italian Left, which had been launched primarily by Left Ecology Freedom and dissidents of the Democratic Party.

Composition
AET was founded on 5 March 2014 in Rome by some Italian intellectuals, Andrea Camilleri, Paolo Flores d'Arcais, Luciano Gallino, Marco Revelli, Barbara Spinelli and Guido Viale. The alliance was then composed of the following parties:

title: The Voice of Greece (season 2)

text:
The second season of the Greek and Cypriot reality talent show The Voice of Greece premiered on February 15, 2015 on ANT1. Based on the reality singing competition The Voice of Holland, the series was created by Dutch television producer John de Mol. It is part of an international series.

On July 16, 2014, it was confirmed that both the presenters and the coaches of the previous season would return. The winner receives a record deal with Minos EMI and a Peugeot 108 as part of his prizes.

Teams
Each coach of the season had, after the blind auditions, sixteen acts in his team. During the battles each coach lost half of his acts. During the live shows, the coaches were losing two (first and second live) or one act (third to fifth live) until the final live where each coach had one act.
Color key

Blind auditions
The blind auditions took place in the Kapa Studios in Spata, Attica. Each coach had the length of the artists' performance to decide if they wanted that artist on their team. If two or more coaches have wanted the same artist, then the artist chose their coach. If only one wanted the artist, then the artist was defaulted in his team. Once the coaches picked their team, they pitted them against each other in the Battles.

title: U-Boat Worx

text:
U-Boat Worx is a Dutch submersible manufacturer. Its headquarters are based in Breda, the Netherlands. The company was founded in 2005 by Dutch entrepreneur Bert Houtman. U-Boat Worx delivers crewed submersibles for exploration, research, yachts and tourism applications.

History
In the early 2000s, after a successful career in the software industry culminating in the Stock Exchange listing of his company, Exact Software, Houtman commenced looking for a personal submarine for his own enjoyment, only to find that submersibles were the sole domain of military or institutional scientific users.

In his quest to personalise submarines for everyday use, Bert teamed up with a Canadian inventor, Peter Mitton, who had pioneered a small one person Sub (C - Quester) that provided the template for what was to follow.

That partnership ended in 2005; Bert Houtman founded U-Boat Worx determined to expand the audience for private submersibles.

U-Boat Worx delivered in 2015 a private submarine for a Cruise Ship, this was the first cruise ship with a submarine operation onboard. Later the Crystal Esprit and Genting Dream also took delivery of a U-Boat Worx submersibles.

Today the company produces a range of versatile subs for all underwater activities, including the flagship model that can dive to 3,000 meters (9,845 feet).

The Name
The name "U-Boat Worx" is derived from "underwater boat”, referring to the boat-like handling that was distinctive in the original C-Quester design". A so-called double-hull principle that did not only use diving tanks to achieve positive buoyancy, but also a secondary boat-like hull that could be pumped empty was to make the submersible suitable for longer surface voyage and provide "boat-like" characteristics.

The second part "Worx" is an abbreviation or alteration of "Works", which refers to the industrial nature of the production process.

Models
U-Boat Worx now has different series of submarines. The following models are in production.

NEMO series
 NEMO-1 – one-person submarine, capable of diving to 100 meters
 NEMO-2 – two-person submarine, capable of diving to 100 meters
Super Yacht Sub series
 Super Yacht Sub 3 –three-person submarine, designed for yachts, capable of diving to 300 meters
C-Researcher series
 C-Researcher 2 – 500 - two-person submarine capable of diving to 500 meters
 C-Researcher 2 – 1140 - two-person submarine capable of diving to 1,140 meters
 C-Researcher 2 – 3000 - two-person submarine capable of diving to 3,000 meters
 C-Researcher 3 – 300 - three-person submarine capable of diving to 300 meters
 C-Researcher 3 – 1140 - three-person submarine capable of diving to 1,140 meters
 C-Researcher 3 – 2500 – three-person submarine capable of diving to 2,500 meters
 C-Researcher 5 – 300 – three-person submarine capable of diving to 300 meters
Cruise Sub series
 Cruise Sub 5 – 500 – five-person submarine, capable of diving to 500 meters
 Cruise Sub 5 – 1140 – five-person submarine, capable of diving to 1,140 meters
 Cruise Sub 5 – 1700 – five-person submarine, capable of diving to 1,700 meters
 Cruise Sub 7 – 300 – seven-person submarine, capable of diving to 300 meters
 Cruise Sub 7 – 1140 – seven-person submarine, capable of diving to 1,140 meters
 Cruise Sub 9 – 300 – nine-person submarine, capable of diving to 300 meters
Super Sub
 Super Sub – 300 – three-person submarine, capable of diving to 300 meters
C-Explorer series
 C-Explorer 3 – three-person submersible, capable of diving to 300 meters
 C-Explorer 5 – five-person submersible, capable of diving to 200 meters

The following U-Boat Worx models are no longer in production.
 C-Quester 1 - one-person submarine
 C-Quester 2 – two-person submarine
 C-Quester 3 – three-person submarine
 C-Explorer 2 – two-person submarine

Applications
70% of U-Boat Worx clients are private yacht owners who use their private submersible for exploration most of the time. Some of these clients make their private submersibles available for researchers. Other applications U-Boat Worx private submersibles are being used for are tourism and research. Several cruise ships have a U-Boat Worx private submersible available onboard for dive excursions to entertain guests.

Many clients of U-Boat Worx are private owners - as a result the following list is not complete. Known dive operations with U-Boat Worx submersibles are:
 Motor Yacht Legend - a Class 1 ice-breaking charter yacht, which is used on expeditions to remote destinations like Antarctica and Greenland.
 The Russian Geographical Society used two U-Boat Worx submarines during a search and rescue operation - a C-Quester 2 and C-Explorer 3 - at the site of the fall of aircraft Tu-154 in Sochi. This model of sub is usually deployed for research expeditions.
 Cruise Ship Genting Dream of Dream Cruises carries a C-Explorer 5 submarine on each side of the ship.
 Cruise Ship Crystal Esprit, a high-end luxurious cruise ship operated by Crystal Cruises has a C-Explorer 3 onboard to entertain guests.
 Cruise Ship Taipan of star Cruise is the first cruise ship who takes delivery of a private submarine. The C-Explorer 3 can be booked for diving trips during your stay.
 Aurora Trust Foundations partnered with SubSea Explorers and U-Boat Worx to explorer ancient Roman shipwrecks.
 Motor Yacht Sofia, a 42-meter Moonen Yacht carries a C-Quester 3.

Technology
MANTA Controller – to allow for supervised passenger steering U-Boat Worx developed the MANTA Controller. The pilot can hand over the controller to an untrained guest to let them navigate, under supervision.

MARLIN Controller – To make launch and recovery of the submersible easy and safe, U-Boat Worx developed the MARLIN Controller. This controller allows for wireless control and navigation on the surface without having a person inside the submarine.

U-Boat Worx was the first submarine manufacturer who applied Lithium-ion batteries in her submarines with classification by DNV GL.

Pressure tolerant Battery technology – U-Boat Worx developed a pressure tolerant battery system with an increased capacity of 350% when compared to lead-acid batteries used non U-Boat Worx submersibles. The technology has been tested to 13,000 feet and stores a total of 62 kWh on compact battery modules.

title: BRS Resources

text:
BRS Resources, Limited was a publicly traded, international exploration and production company headquartered in Dallas, Texas, and listed on the TSX Venture Exchange in Canada. The company is focused on building a European presence in the upstream oil and gas business, primarily natural gas production in Italy.

BRS Resources was actively pursuing opportunities in the Mediterranean Basin and North Africa, with its primary focus in Italy.

Italy has been a major gas-producing region in Europe since the late 1940s, with more than 4,300 wells drilled in several geologic provinces. The Po Valley is the most prolific gas basin in Italy with over 45 trillion cubic feet of gas recovered from high quality sandstone reservoirs at shallow depths.

History
In February 2011, the company changed its name from Bonanza Resources Corporation to BRS Resources.

BRS Resources' first entry into the European market was through the purchase of a membership interest in AleAnna Resources LLC, a privately owned company with a portfolio of oil and gas assets strategically located in the Po Valley and Bradano basins of Italy. In July 2010, the company announced it had acquired interests in AleAnna Resources, which has assembled a land position currently encompassing  in the Po Valley and Bradano basins of onshore Italy.

Corporate leadership
In June 2010, Steve Moore joined the Board of Directors of BRS Resources and became the President of BRS Resources.

Moore has more than 25 years of financial experience in the oil and gas industry, including a position as editor of an oil and gas technical publication and director of communications and strategic planning for Halliburton Company. He has an engineering degree and MBA from Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas.

In February 2011, BRS Resources announced Sioux Sinnott as a Director of the company and as President of Bonanza Resources (Texas) Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of BRS Resources Ltd.

Sinnott has more than 35 years of international oil and gas experience and was instrumental in securing the membership interest in AleAnna Energy LLC, placing BRS Resources in the second-largest land position onshore Italy. Sinnott's area of expertise is project management. Prior to joining BRS, she was the president of Heartland Rig International (HRI) Inc., a global manufacturer of drilling rigs and equipment. She also held positions at Arco Oil and Gas, Exxon Neftegaz Limited, Nimir Petroleum and Petrosakh USA. She attended Southern Methodist University in Dallas.

Projects

Le Saline and Tre Ponti
In August 2006, the Tre Ponti and the Le Saline exploration permit applications were filed with the Ministry of Economic Development and subsequently published in the Official Bulletin of Hydrocarbons and Geothermal Resources No. L – 9. Awarding of both permits was expected in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Directly north of the Ponte del Diavolo and Corte dei Signori permits, the  Tre Ponti and the  Le Saline exploration permit applications are primarily located in the Veneto Region and some of the Emilia-Romagna Region.

Fantozza
In December 2010, the  Fantozza exploration permit was awarded and published in the Official Bulletin of Hydrocarbons and Geothermal Resources LIV-12.

Found in the central Po Valley Basin, the Fantozza concession is a topographically flat area, typical of the Po Valley landscape, again, with exploration targets in the Miocene, Pliocene and Pleistocene turbidites. Deeper targets in the Mesozoic limestone may also be considered.

Molino
In July 2010, the  Molino exploration permit was awarded, adjacent to the Cortemaggiore field, one of the oldest and largest existing fields in the basin, having produced nearly 12 million barrels of oil, 371 Bcf of natural gas and 80,000 barrels of condensate from 1949 to 1992 from several Miocene sands.

Ponte Del Diavolo
Northwest of the Corte dei Signori permit area, the Ponte del Diavolo permit was awarded on February 2, 2009. This permit covers an area of  with natural gas exploration targets within the Plio-Pleistocene turbiditic sands of the Apennines foredeep. On trend with large existing gas fields, this makes for a very attractive permit area.

Acquisition of a new 3-D seismic survey is planned for 2011.

Belgioiosa
In December 2010, the Belgioioso exploration permit covering  in the Emilia Romagna Region and Lombardia Region was awarded and published in the Official Bulletin of Hydrocarbons and Geothermal Resources No. LIV-12.

Primary targets in Belgioioso block are located in the Miocene, Plio-Pleistocene turbiditic sands of the Apennines foredeep. Related to the final phases of the Apenninic orogeny, the traps can be either structural or mixed.

Bugia
In October 2010, the  Bugia exploration permit was awarded and published in the Official Bulletin of Hydrocarbons and Geothermal Resources No. LIV – 10.

It is anticipated that in the Bugia block the likely hydrocarbon targets will again be located in the Miocene, Plio-Pleistocene turbiditic sands of the Apennines foredeep. Related to the final phases of the Apenninic orogeny, the traps can be either structural or mixed.

Ponte dei Grilli
Covering a surface of  in the south-eastern region of the Po Valley, the Ponte dei Grilli exploration permit was awarded March 2009.

Also on trend with large existing fields, the exploration targets in the Ponte dei Grilli permit area are gas accumulations trapped in thrusted anticlines, stratigraphic pinch outs and structural features in the Plio-Pleistocene turbiditic sands located in the Apennines foredeep.

Corte dei Signori
In March 2008, the Corte dei Signori exploration permit was awarded.

Seeking a better definition of the existing hydrocarbon traps in the Plio-Pleistocene as well as older sections, the company acquired  of high-resolution 3-D seismic in 2009. Utilizing this new data, several prospective areas in the block have been identified with the first well planned to be drilled in the first half of 2011.

In December 2011, BRS Resources announced that the drilling permit for the company's first well in Italy – the Gallare 6d – had been issued by the Italian Ministry of Economic Development. The permit was issued to the operator AleAnna Resources LLC, an Italian oil and gas exploration company in which BRS Resources owns a membership interest. At the same time, AleAnna finalized a land usage agreement with the landowner.

title: Safari Motorcoach Corporation

text:
Safari Motorcoach Corporation (also known as Safari Coach) is a defunct American motor coach manufacturing company that was based in Oregon. The company's manufacturing plant was initially located in Harrisburg. The Safari Coach brand name was purchased by Monaco in 2002, however the Safari Coach name was no longer being used as of 2009.

History

Safari was founded in the 1980s by Mat Perlot and Curt Lawler, former employees of Beaver Motorcoach Corporation. The company started building diesel- and gas-powered Class A motorhomes. Safari bought Beaver in 1994 for $7.6 million after outbidding Country Coach. In 2002, Monaco Coach purchased Safari and Beaver brand names. In 2006 Beaver moved its  assembly plant.  Safari was able to keep its plant in Harrisburg open. Safari also shared ownership in Beaver's Bend assembly plant. In 2006 the Beaver plant moved and Safari had to vacate.  Throughout his career, Mat Perlot stayed in touch with his customer base. He knew that once you owned one of his coaches, you were a candidate for another, newer one down the road.  One of the ways he did this was to create Safari International, a chapter of the Family Motor Coach Association.  With over 4,000 members at one time Mat knew what they wanted in a motor coach and he was excited to market to their desires.  Today, Safari International still exists, albeit much smaller in size, but they still maintain their beautiful coaches with pride.  They can be found at Safari-International.org

Bankruptcy And Closure Of Brand

In 2009, Monaco filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The following year Navistar International purchased Monaco, but Navistar did not purchase the Safari Coach brand name, the Safari and Beaver brand names were no longer used.

Multifocal micronodular pneumocyte hyperplasia (MMPH) is a subtype of pneumocytic hyperplasia (hyperplasia of pneumocytes lining pulmonary alveoli).

Several synonymous terms have been done for this entity: adenomatoid proliferation of alveolar epithelium, papillary alveolar hamartoma, multifocal alveolar hyperplasia, multinodular pneumocyte hyperplasia.

These multifocal lesions are observed in tuberous sclerosis, and can be associated with lymphangioleiomyomatosis and perivascular epithelioid cell tumour (PEComa or clear cell "sugar tumor")).

It can be diagnosed through lung biopsy using thoracoscopy.

Microscopy
 Well-demarcated, nodular lesions ranging 2–5 mm in pulmonary parenchyma.
 Type II pneumocytes without nuclear atypia lined thickened alveolar septa and proliferated papillary structures.
 Enlarged cuboidal cells lining mildly thickened alveolar septa.
 Enlarged cuboidal cells have abundant, eosinophilic cytoplasm and large, round nuclei.
 Papillary pattern with irregular margin and lymphocyte infiltration in the stroma.
 No proliferation of immature smooth muscle cells suggestive of lymphangioleiomyomatosis.

title: KTM 690 Duke

text:
The KTM 690 Duke is the latest generation in KTM's line of midrange single-cylinder engine supermoto, or naked motorcycles that began with the 1994  displacement Duke 620 or Duke I, followed by the 1998  Duke 640 or Duke II, followed by the  Duke III, and finally the  Duke IV made since 2012. Both the Duke III and Duke IV are called the 690 Duke

The Duke was KTM's first street bike, and first supermoto, having previously made only off-road and racing motorcycles. In 1998 KTM introduced the 640 Supermoto, so the Duke line became a more street oriented standard or streetfighter, while retaining some off-road characteristics like a relatively long suspension travel. Initially the Duke was KTM's entry level street bike, but later KTM partnered with Bajaj Auto to produce the 125 Duke, 200 Duke, and 390 Duke in India, placing the 600 cc class Dukes in the middle of their range. In 2005, KTM introduced the Super Duke to expand the range above the middle Duke, initially  and later growing to .

title: Michelle Elisabeth d'Ivry

text:
Michelle Elisabeth d'Ivry (c. 1731 - 12 February 1795) was a Swedish (originally French) spy.

D'Ivry was from France and married to a Monsieur d'Ivry in Paris. She arrived in Sweden as the mistress of the royal court jeweler Sutzer. From 1776 to 1782, she was the Kammarfru of the Queen Dowager Louisa Ulrika. She made herself the trusted confidant of Louisa Ulrika; it was reportedly she who introduced Lolotte Forssberg to Louisa Ulrika, and she was also entrusted secret political tasks by the queen dowager.
She functioned as the paid agent of King Gustav III of Sweden at the court of his mother. This was regarded to be a vital task especially during the conflict of 1778–82, when Louisa Ulrika accused the King of having another man father the heir to the throne for him.

After the death of Louisa Ulrika in 1782, Michelle Elisabeth d'Ivry was awarded double the pension given to the other members of the court of the Queen Dowager, which had a position of the same rank as she, with the condition that she did not leave the country and did not participate in social life. She died during the minority of King Gustav IV Adolf of Sweden, upon which her left papers was sealed and confiscated by representatives of the guardian government.

title: Yeast Metabolome Database

text:
The Yeast Metabolome Database (YMDB) is a comprehensive, high-quality, freely accessible, online database of small molecule metabolites found in or produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Baker’s yeast). The YMDB was designed to facilitate yeast metabolomics research, specifically in the areas of general fermentation as well as wine, beer and fermented food analysis. YMDB supports the identification and characterization of yeast metabolites using NMR spectroscopy, GC-MS spectrometry and Liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS spectrometry).  The YMDB contains two kinds of data: 1) chemical data and 2) molecular biology/biochemistry data. The chemical data includes 2027 metabolite structures with detailed metabolite descriptions along with nearly 4000 NMR, GC-MS and LC/MS spectra.

The biochemical data includes 1104 protein (and DNA) sequences and more than 900 biochemical reactions (Fig. 1) that are linked to these metabolite entries. Each metabolite entry in the YMDB contains more than 80 data fields with 2/3 of the information being devoted to chemical data and the other 1/3 devoted to enzymatic or biochemical data. Many data fields are hyperlinked to other databases (KEGG, PubChem, MetaCyc, ChEBI, Protein Data Bank, UniProt, and GenBank) and a variety of structure and pathway viewing applets. The YMDB database supports extensive text, sequence, spectral, chemical structure and relational query searches.

Scope and access

All data in YMDB is non-proprietary or is derived from a non-proprietary source. It is freely accessible and available to anyone. In addition, nearly every data item is fully traceable and explicitly referenced to the original source. YMDB data is available through a public web interface and downloads.

Users may search through the YMDB using a variety of database-specific tools. The simple text query supports general text queries of the textual component of the database. By selecting either metabolites or proteins in the “search for” field it is possible to restrict the search and the returned results to only those data associated with metabolites or with proteins. YMDB’s browse tool generates a tabular synopsis of YMDB's content (Fig. 2). This browser view allows users to casually scroll through the database or re-sort its contents. Clicking on a given MetaboCard button brings up the full data content for the corresponding metabolite (Fig. 3). Under the Search link users will find a number of search options listed in a pull-down menu. The Chem Query option allows users to draw (using MarvinSketch applet or a ChemSketch applet) or to type (SMILES string) a chemical compound and to search the YMDB for chemicals similar or identical to the query compound. The Advanced Search option supports a more sophisticated text search of the text portion of YMDB. The Sequence Search button allows users to conduct BLAST (protein) sequence searches of all sequences contained in YMDB. Both single and multiple sequence (i.e. whole proteome) BLAST queries are supported. YMDB also supports a Data Extractor option that allows specific data fields or combinations of data fields to be searched and/or extracted. Spectral searches of YMDB’s reference compound NMR and MS spectral data are also supported through its MS, MS/MS, GC-MS and NMR Spectra Search links. Users may download YMDB’s complete textual data, chemical structures and sequence data by clicking on the Download button.

title: Polyphrasmon

text:
Polyphrasmon (, gen.: Πολυφράσμονος) was a Greek tragic playwright.  He won the City Dionysia for tragedy in or about 471 BC, and came in third place in 467 BC for a tragic trilogy based on the story of Lycurgus (Lykourgeia); the names of the individual plays in the trilogy are not known, and Aeschylus took first prize in the competition that year.  No fragments of Polyphrasmon's plays have survived.

Polyphrasmon was the son of tragic poet Phrynichus, and was named after his grandfather.

title: Klang Bell

text:
The Klang Bell is an ancient bronze bell found in the city of Klang, Selangor state, western Malaysia. Estimated to date from the late Iron Age, the bell is a rare object of its genre and since 1949 has been part of the British Museum's Asian Collections.

Discovery
Found with a number of iron tools in the city of Klang, the cast bronze artefact was one of three unearthed there; it is very similar to other bells that have been found in Battambang in Cambodia. One bell has been dated to AD 150.

Description
The Klang Bell has a high, narrow body crowned by a cup-like lid and was designed to be worn by an elephant. The entire bell is decorated with vertical bands of rectangles composed of double spirals with central eyes motifs. In the lower part of the bell, three irregularly fashioned rows lie above a plain band. The bell is decorated in a similar way to the Dong Son drums that were produced in large quantities in Vietnam and elsewhere in southeast Asia between 600 BC and the third century AD, and are some of the region's finest examples of metalworking from this period.

title: Gail Karp

text:
Gail Ilene Posner Karp (born in the mid 1950s in Detroit, Michigan) served as the cantor of the Reform Jewish synagogue Temple Emanuel in Davenport, Iowa from 1987 - 2016.  She is also employed by the Department of Defense.

Early life and education
Karp attended the Hebrew Union College - Jewish Institute of Religion, Debbie Friedman School of Sacred Music in New York City (HUC-JIR), where Gail was ordained as the fourth female Jewish Cantor in 1978, and subsequently received a master's degree in voice performance and musicology from University of Nebraska in 1980.  She became a member of the professional women’s music fraternity, Sigma Alpha Iota, while a student.

Early career
While in seminary, Gail Posner Karp served Temple Beth Torah on Long Island as their first cantor in the late 70’s. In the years that followed, she was affiliated with Temple Israel of Omaha and Congregation B’nai Jeshurun of Lincoln in Nebraska, Temple Beth El of Aptos and Temple Emanuel of San Jose. She was the first credentialed, licensed cantor to serve these congregations.

Advocacy
In 1986, the Karps’ middle child, Joshua, was diagnosed with autism at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics, Division of Child Psychiatry.  The diagnosis resulted in a second career that included local, state and national leadership roles with the Autism Societies of the Quad Cities, state of Iowa and nationally from the mid-80’s until the turn of the century.  During this time, Gail Karp was also appointed to the Iowa Governor’s Task Force on Autism, worked on the establishment of the Autism Tissue Program, and consulted with numerous other funded special projects of regional and national significance (SPRANS grant programs) that impacted the lives of persons with disabilities.  Cantor Karp has served on the editorial boards of The Journal of Information and Referral Services, The Advocate (a quarterly publication of the Autism Society of America), and the Iowa COMPASS.  In 2003, she received an honorary doctorate from the Hebrew Union College, citing her work on behalf of this special population.  The Jewish value of tikkun olam (repairing the world) continues to serve as a theme in her life.

Private life
Karp is married to Rabbi Henry Karp, rabbi emeritus of Temple Emanuel in Davenport.  They have three children. According to Henry Karp, he and Gail Posner Karp were the first Rabbi-Cantor clergy couple to become engaged and married during their seminary studies at HUC (1973–1978).

Fund Development
Shortly after the initial diagnosis of her son, Karp expanded her efforts to include improving the quality of life for all persons with autism (and, as time progressed, persons who experience disabilities with both related and disparate diagnoses).  The skills she developed as a Jewish cultural arts event initiator and organizational leader of volunteer organizations enabled her to transition seamlessly into the fundraising profession.  Karp had been affiliated with the Association of Fundraising Professionals (including service as a Chapter President) and met the requirements for a professional designation as a Certified Fundraising Professional (CFRE) in 2000. Additional certification included a Grant Professional Credential (GPC).

Other professional memberships have included The Partnership for Philanthropic Planning (formerly the National Committee for Planned Giving, where she served as a local council past president) and the American Conference of Cantors (both as a past board member and as a member on numerous committees).

title: Honda Verza

text:
The Honda Verza (known as CB150 Verza since 2018) is a  single-cylinder standard/naked bike made by Astra Honda Motor in Indonesia since 2013. It is the stripped-down counterpart of the CB Trigger and Unicorn, two related motorcycles sold in India, lacking some features of the Trigger and Unicorn.

The Verza is positioned below the more expensive CB150R StreetFire in Astra Honda Motor's sport motorcycles lineup, and intended for more economical purposes rather than performance outlook.

History
The Verza was introduced by Honda in January 2013 as the cheaper alternative to the CB150R StreetFire. The second iteration, called CB150 Verza, was launched in February 2018. This model has a retro-styling approach rather than modern approach from the previous model.

2013–2018

The Verza was introduced in January 2013. The engine is claimed to have a maximum power output of  @ 8,500 rpm and maximum torque of  @ 6,000 rpm. It is also claimed to have a 0– acceleration in 11.5 seconds and a top speed of .

In August 2015, the Verza received a minor cosmetic update, such as chromed exhaust cover, black (previously red) rear shocks and carbon fiber-look instrument panel background.

Performance

2018–present
In February 2018, Astra Honda Motor released an updated version of the Verza, called CB150 Verza. The update consists of circular headlamp, digital instrument panel and reworked side shroud. The engine remains the same as the previous model, though produces less power and more torque instead.

title: Storyman (band)

text:
Storyman is the songwriting partnership of Kevin May and Mick Lynch. Both hail from Ireland and first achieved success as members of the band The Guggenheim Grotto. After raising funds for a new album through PledgeMusic, the duo worked with producer Chris Kuffner on new material. The resulting album was different enough from their previous work as The Guggenheim Grotto that they decided to change their name to reflect the new project.  They released their first album as Storyman, entitled This Time Round, on November 12, 2013.

Biography
As part of The Guggenheim Grotto, Kevin and Mick broke through with their 2006 debut Waltzing Alone. Two more critically acclaimed albums followed, 2008’s Happy The Man and 2010’s The Universe Is Laughing.

The stylistic difference of Storyman is a reflection of Kevin and Mick's time living in Brooklyn for three years and feeling inspiration from the musical landscape of the city. This Time Round features New York based musicians Chris Kuffner (electric guitars, bass, synths), Elliott Jacobson (drums/percussion), and Katie Costello, Lelia Broussard and Hannah Winkler (vocals). The album shows their singer-songwriter roots with an expanded sonic and lyrical palette. This Time Round was featured as one of Brave New World’s Best Albums of 2013, and the duo also won The Deli’s year end New York City songwriter poll.

In support of the album, Storyman joined Ingrid Michaelson on her Lights Out Tour in 2014. having toured with her once before as The Guggenheim Grotto. Michaelson included a cover of Storyman's “You Got Me” on the album, which she performed with May and Lynch.

title: Robert Mersey

text:
Robert David Mirsky (April 7, 1917 – December 14, 1994), known as Robert Mersey, was an American musician, arranger, and record producer.

Life and career
In the 1950s, Mersey worked as an arranger with Leiber and Stoller. In 1959, he recorded "Tracy's Theme", an instrumental written by Robert Ascher which was used in a new NBC production of The Philadelphia Story. The production company thought the tune had hit potential, so they worked out a deal with Columbia Records to issue it as a single. However, Mersey was under contract with the new Big Top label as its musical director and had already released a single, "Bittersweet September," on the label. Devon Music, the publishing firm of Talent Associates owned by David Susskind and Howie Richmond at the time, created a fictitious artist named Spencer Ross, and retained ownership of the pseudonym for potential future use. Mersey's recording, under the pseudonym "Spencer Ross", peaked at number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100. After "Tracy's Theme" became a hit, Mersey received permission to use the name Spencer Ross on his next Big Top single, "Theme of a Lonely Evening", but after that, the rights to the Ross name reverted to Devon Music.

Mersey married English lyricist Pam Sawyer in May 1956; they later divorced. From the early 1960s he was employed as an arranger and producer at Columbia Records, where he was responsible for records by singers such as Andy Williams, Barbra Streisand, Bobby Vinton, Dion, Johnny Mathis, Julie Andrews, Mel Tormé, Patti Page and Ray Peterson. In 1960, he conducted the orchestra in the song "Good Timin'", sung by Jimmy Jones. The song also later became a hit for Kyu Sakamoto. He was also responsible for many of Aretha Franklin's early recordings at Columbia, including her 1964 tribute album to Dinah Washington, Unforgettable. According to writer Ursula Rivera, Mersey "was able to provide musical arrangements that highlighted Aretha's unique voice whether she was singing a noisy blues number or a heartbreaking ballad." Mersey also arranged and composed for CBS Television and films, and produced several albums of incidental music, including Great Jazz from Great TV, credited to "Det Moor".

He died in Baltimore, Maryland, at the age of 77.

title: James Hare (British politician)

text:
James Hare (1747–1804) was an English politician, diplomat and wit.

Life
He was the son of Joseph Hare, an apothecary of Wells, Somerset. He was educated at Eton College, and entered King's College, Cambridge in December 1765. He graduated B.A. in 1770, having become a fellow in 1768, a position he held to 1774.

Hare entered London life, where his status as a wit was generally recognised. Georgiana Cavendish, Duchess of Devonshire described Hare as having "a manner of placing every object in so new a light that his kind of wit always surprises as much as it pleases." He associated with the fashionable set of Frederick Howard, 5th Earl of Carlisle, Earl Fitzwilliam, General Richard FitzPatrick, Charles James Fox, and Anthony Morris Storer. He sat for the borough of , in Hampshire, from May 1772 to 1774, and then for , a constituency controlled by the Duke of Devonshire, from 3 July 1781 until his death in 1804. He  broke down in his maiden parliamentary speech, and never made a second attempt.

One of the few trustworthy and discreet members of the Ton (le bon ton), Hare was a loyal, kind friend to Georgiana Cavendish, Duchess of Devonshire to his death. For example, Hare had several illegitimate children of his own, and was sympathetic to the plight of Georgiana's friend Lady Elizabeth Foster's illegitimate children; he went out of his way to check on Foster's illegitimate children in France in the midst of the French Revolution. Hare brushed off his kindness, writing to Foster, "The constant anxiety which I feel for my own children would of itself sufficiently dispose me to assist almost anybody when children are concerned." He helped convince Georgiana to allow Foster's illegitimate daughter Caroline St. Jules to publicly become a member of the family by allowing her to live at Devonshire House.

Of his physical appearance, he was "stick-thin, with a face so white he appeared more dead than alive."

Hare was a gambling addict, and he was always in debt. His seat in Parliament —courtesy of the Duke of Devonshire— was the only reason he was not sent to debtors' prison. While his grandfather was a bishop, his father was a mere apothecary. Hare had gambled away his small inheritance and thereafter remained dependent on his rich Whig friends as a house guest.

From October 1779 to January 1782 he was minister plenipotentiary in Poland.

In 1802 he was very ill in Paris, and Fox paid him frequent visits. After taking a stroll with Georgiana's mother Georgiana Spencer, Countess Spencer, he caught a head-cold that turned into pneumonia; he died at Bath, Somerset 10 March 1804. Hare was greatly mourned by his friends, including Georgiana, the Duke of Devonshire, and Bess Foster.

Works
Hare was believed to have been one of the writers of the Rolliad.
