title: Oneirophobia

text:
Oneirophobia (from Greek όνειρο (oneiro), meaning "dream", and φόβος (phobos), meaning "fear") is the fear of dreams. It is discussed in The Dream Frontier, a book by Mark Blechner, a neuro-psychoanalyst at the William Alanson White Institute.

The fear involves suffering due to experiences with frightening dreams (nightmares and/or night terrors) or by negative events in the life affecting those dreams. Some sufferers try to avoid sleep or falling asleep altogether. Those with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, often re-experience their trauma in nightmares, so frequently that they attempt to avoid these painful symptoms through alcohol or other drugs. Sleep itself is feared for its capacity to bring on the repressed trauma.

However, not all oneirophobia is strictly a function of post-traumatic stress disorder, as most dream content, and thus the fear of its manifestation, is related to the daily functions of the unconscious. In traditional Freudian thought, the dreamer channels their thoughts, feelings, desires and fears through dreams, but in a disguised and nonrational way. When these dreams are recalled and experienced as disturbing events- especially if they are of frequent recurrence- the dreamer may begin to develop anxiety over the expression of their unconscious. Many sufferers may also be frightened by the unusual or surreal nature of dreams.

In Popular Culture
In Destiny 2 Lightfall, there is a music piece called Oneirophobia. This plays during the raid, Root of Nightmares during the final boss fight with Nezarec.

text:
Dominique Dupuy (born 1930) is a French dancer and choreographer of modern dance. He is best known as a pioneer of modern dance in France. Additionally, he runs a choreographic centre as well as an annual dance festival in Provence.

Biography

Early life
Dominique Dupuy was born on 31 October 1930 in Paris. He was first trained as an eight-year-old by choreographer Jean Weidt and later by Doryta Brown. He was then trained by the American choreographer Jerome Andrews. During the Second World War, he left Paris for rural France, and he learned how to act. Shortly after the war, he resumed lessons with Weidt, and took lessons in classical dance with Olga Preobrajenska, Nicolas Zverev, and Merce Cunningham. Additionally, he took more acting lessons with Charles Dullin and Marcel Marceau.

Career
He started his career as a dancer for his former teacher, Jean Weidt, where he met his future wife. Shortly afterwards, as Weidt returned to Germany, he established a dance company with his wife called Les Ballets Modernes de Paris. Together, they have choreographed many dance performances. Their dances have been inspired by Vaslav Nijinsky, Deryk Mendel, Michel Fokine and Régine Chopinot. One of their main dancers has been José Montalvo.

Later, they also established the Mas de la danse, a choreographic center in Fontvieille, Bouches-du-Rhône, in the South of France. On top of dance performances, they also organize conferences on dance open to the public. Additionally, they established the annual Les Baux-de-Provence Dance Festival in Les Baux-de-Provence.

He has also taught dance and practised as a choreographer on his own. For example, he served as the Director of the Dance Department at the Institute of Musical and Choreographic Pedagogy from 1991 to 1995. More recently, in 2012–2013, he choreographed Act Without Words I and Act Without Words II, two short plays by Samuel Beckett.  The first one was performed at the Théâtre national de Chaillot in Paris.

He has been called a pioneer of modern dance in France.

Personal life
He has been married to Françoise Dupuy, the daughter of art critic Marcel Michaud (1898-1958), and also a dancer, since 1951. They met during a dance class taught by Jean Weidt. Françoise died in September 2022.

title: KK Olimpas

text:
KK Olimpas is a basketball team based in Plungė, Lithuania. The team currently competes in the third-tier Regional Basketball League (RKL). The club previously competed in the first-tier Lithuanian Basketball League (LKL) and second-tier National Basketball League (NKL).

History
The team was founded in 1989. In 1993, the club competed in the Lithuanian Basketball League (LKL), falling to BC Lavera in the quarterfinals. The team was led by Augenijus Vaškys, who averaged the highest number of points per game for that season – 22.9. The next season, the team signed two Americans – Patrick Jones and Tim Brooks. The team finished in seventh place in the group stage, upsetting Žalgiris Kaunas and Atletas Kaunas in the last few group stage games to secure a ticket to the LKL playoffs. However, the team again lost in the quarterfinals, this time to the star–studded BC Atletas 2–1.

Patrick Jones, who was second in the league in points per game with 24.4, left the team before the start of the 1995–1996 season. He was replaced by the Canadian sharpshooter Joey Vickery, who continued the Olimpas tradition of nearly leading the LKL in points per game with 21.7. After a successful run in the group stage, the team finally won the quarterfinal match and advanced to the semifinal, where it lost to Žalgiris in two close matches. The team also participated in the FIBA European Cup Second Qualifying Round that season, losing to Dynamo Moscow.

The team opened a new chapter in its history the following season by merging with the LKKA champion BC Mažeikiai and forming BC Žemaitijos Lokiai, or Žemaitijos Olimpas, as the team was known in the LKL. The team lost many of its leaders; Vickery and Brooks left the team, as well as head coach Rimantas Endrijaitis, who successfully coached Olimpas for two seasons. The team, however, acquired new talent: Latvian Olympian Igors Miglinieks, American center Willie B. Kelly, and former Mažeikiai leader Darius Staugaitis. With those players at the helm, the team won the 1997 Korać Cup qualifying round against Dinamo Tbilisi, but finished third in the preliminary round and did not advance further. Coaching changes in the middle of the season brought Valdemaras Chomičius and Jeremiah Walker into the team, with the former serving as a playing coach. Chomičius' team made it to the LKL finals for the first time in its history, where it lost to Žalgiris Kaunas in three games.

Such success in the LKL guaranteed Žemaitijos Lokiai a spot in the FIBA European Cup for the 1997–1998 season. Although the team lost Miglinieks, Kelly, Walker and Staugaitis, it celebrated Brooks' return, who had spent the year playing in France. Brooks and Vaškys led the team in its efforts to advance to the second round of the European Cup; however, they were not enough as the team finished in fifth place in the group stage with 2 wins and 8 losses. The team's performance in the LKL also waned; the team lost to Lietuvos rytas in the quarterfinals.

In 1998, the team's name was changed back to Olimpas Plungė. Financial difficulties forced the team to forego participation in the LKL, and soon afterwards, the team disbanded.

Olimpas was reestablished in 2011 and participated in the third-tier RKL. The very first season, Olimpas finished first in the league and was promoted to the NKL.

title: Notes on Ornette

text:
Notes on Ornette is an album by pianist Paul Bley recorded in 1997 and released on the Danish SteepleChase label.

Reception
All About Jazz said "Bley, at times, can be a brooding musician, although the more carefree exuberance of be-bop is not a foreign concept to him. Here with Notes on Ornette, the darker aspects of Bley’s musical personality suits the pointed and slightly melancholy nature of Coleman’s work... Another fine item to be added to Bley’s list of SteepleChase classics, this set not only speaks to this trio’s collective veracity but also to Coleman’s enduring genius as a writer. In fact, I’m sure the composer would be proud." JazzTimes observed "There have been so many Bley records over the last 20-odd years that only diehards try to keep up with all of them, but anyone who has ever enjoyed the pianist should seek out Notes on Ornette. Bley still enjoys throwing seemingly unrelated bits of improvised melody together, but here he often goes to the other extreme, spinning out lines that seem endless in which a few simple ideas continually transmogrify."

title: John Angelos of Syrmia

text:
John Angelos or Angelus (, ; c. 1193 – 1253), also known as Good John ( / Kaloiōannēs, ), was a Byzantine prince who migrated to Hungary, and served as governor of various southern regions, including Syrmia, from 1227 until 1253, during the reign of Hungarian kings Andrew II and Béla IV, who were his maternal relatives.

Life
John Angelos was the son of Isaac II Angelos, the Byzantine Emperor from 1185 to 1195, and again from 1203 to 1204; and Margaret of Hungary, the daughter of King Béla III (r. 1172–1196) and sister of King Emeric (r. 1196–1204). John had three older half-siblings from his father's first marriage: Anna-Euphrosyne, Irene Angelina and Alexios IV Angelos, while he had a younger full brother, Manuel Angelos (b. after 1195 – d. 1212).

The family found refuge in the Hungarian court in 1222.

King Andrew II of Hungary (r. 1205–1235), his uncle, gave him "Syrmia and beyond", i.e. south of the Sava river, including Belgrade and Macsó, which he ruled until 1253.

In 1221, Pope Honorius III demanded that the "heretics" (Bogomils) be exterminated in Bosnia. His chaplain Aconcio was unable to gain any followers in Ragusa, and died while in Bosnia. Ugrin Csák, the Archbishop of Kalocsa, proposed to Andrew II of Hungary that he would lead the Bosnian Crusade, and the king and pope promised him all lands that he would clear of heretics. Ugrin overrated himself, and instead gave 200 silver marks to John Angelos, the ruler of Syrmia, to perform the task. John took the money but never acted against the Bogomils, despite being reminded of his obligation by Pope Honorius III in 1227.

King Béla IV appointed John Angelos as the governor of Syrmia, and Rostislav Mikhailovich as the governor of Slavonia, securing his southern boundaries while heading towards the Adriatic. Another source claims that he ruled Syrmia and Bačka from ca. 1230.

He died by 1253, since documents related to marriage of his daughter Maria mention him as deceased.

Issue
John was married to Matilda of Vianden (ca. 1216–), daughter of Henry I, Count of Vianden and Margaret Courtenay, Matilda's mother Margaret was daughter of Peter Courtenay, Latin emperor of Constantinople, and thus sister of Latin emperors Robert and Baldwin II.

Their daughter Maria was married to "Anselm of Keu". Their marriage licenses were issued in 1253 and 1254, by the papal chancellery. The first document mentions the marriage "inter Anselmum de Keu ac Mariam, natam Matildis dominae de Posaga, natae comitissae Viennensis", while the second document mentions "Maria, nate quondam Calojohanni" and also mentions Maria's maternal uncle as "imperatore Constantinopolitano, eiusdem Matildis avunculo". Those data allowed Gordon McDaniel to identify Maria's father as John Angelos, lord of Syrmia, and Maria's mother as Matilda, daughter of Henry I, Count of Vianden and Margaret Courtenay (sister of the Latin emperors Robert and Baldwin II).

Identity of Maria's husband was a subject of several genealogical and historical studies, that tried to resolve complex questions related to attribution of sources on at least two persons (father and son) who had the same name: Anseau de Cayeux.

Gordon McDaniel proposed that Maria, daughter of John Angelos, is the same person as Maria, who is mentioned in several sources from the 1270s and 1280s as widow of Anseau de Cayeux, and also as sister of queen Jelena of Serbia. Based on that assumption, he concluded that Jelena's father was John Angelos of Syrmia.

In the summer of 1280, king Charles I of Sicily issued a document, allowing lady Maria to travel from Apulia to Serbia, to visit her sister, the queen of Serbia (). In later documents, issued in 1281, Maria was mentioned by king Charles as his cousin (), and widow of Anselm "de Chau" ().

If those assumptions are correct, John Angelos would be maternal grandfather of Serbian kings Stefan Dragutin and Stefan Milutin.

General Order No. 143 was an 1863 military directive of the United States War Department which authorized the establishment of a bureau regulating the recruitment, training and organization of the U.S. Army's first regiments composed entirely of African-American soldiers. While state-raised units like the 1st South Carolina Volunteers and the 54th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment had already begun recruitment and training, the order issued May 22, 1863, directly created a new designation among regular U.S. Army regiments: United States Colored Troops.

A legend says that he performed many miracles. In one story, he was taken prisoner by Saracen invaders and he was locked in the Tower of Castel-Blancat, Saccourvielle. To escape he leapt from the top of the Tower, crossed the entire Valley and fell back without harm on the other side, printing his footprint in a stone. This stone is still visible on the threshold of the chapel built at this location.

In another, Aventin was beheaded but picked up his head and walked to the place where would be his tomb. Centuries later, this location was revealed to a shepherd who put the remains of Aventine on a sledge drawn by cows, which stopped at the place where now the village of Saint-Aventin stands.

After his death there occurred an outbreak of plague ravaging the region. The local population appealed to the protection of Saint Aventin and the scourge disappeared.

Veneration
The cult of saint Aventin is found in the Val d'Aran and Aragon. On his birthday, 13 June, there was a pilgrimage to his village. The Revolution saw the end of this tradition.

title: Same-sex marriage in the Tenth Circuit

text:
On June 25, 2014, the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a ruling striking down Utah's same-sex marriage ban, setting a precedent in other states under the Tenth Circuit's jurisdiction. In addition,  on July 18, 2014, the same panel of the Tenth Circuit invalidated Oklahoma's ban as well. Both Circuit Court rulings were stayed pending certiorari review from the Supreme Court of the United States. The Tenth Circuit consists of Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Utah, and Wyoming. New Mexico is the only state in the circuit where same-sex marriage was legal prior to the decisions. Utah is the only state in the circuit where same-sex marriage was temporarily legal after its ban was struck down. A ruling requiring the state of Utah to recognize same-sex marriages performed within the state was temporarily stayed and was originally set to expire on July 21, 2014, at 8:00 a.m. The Supreme Court of the United States extended the stay on July 18, 2014.

A federal judge struck down Colorado's same-sex marriage ban and issued a temporary stay that was set to expire on August 25 at 8:00 a.m. but was later extended. The same-sex marriage ban was also struck down in Colorado by a state district court judge and was stayed pending appeal. Following the circuit court ruling, licenses were issued in Boulder County, Colorado. Attorney General John Suthers declared that they would be invalid. After a state district court judge refused, on July 10, 2014, to order the clerk to stop issuing the licenses, the Denver County clerk's office began issuing licenses to same-sex couples as well. The clerk of Pueblo County began issuing licenses to same-sex couples the next day. The Colorado Supreme Court ordered clerks in Denver and Adams counties not to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples even though Adams County didn't issue any marriage licenses to same-sex couples. On July 21, 2014, it was announced that Pueblo County would stop issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples, yet Boulder County continued to issue licenses. On July 29, 2014, the Colorado Supreme Court ordered the clerk in Boulder County not to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples.

On October 6, 2014, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected petitions for certiorari from five states where same-sex marriage bans had been struck down, including Utah and Oklahoma. The same day, the Tenth Circuit dissolved the stays it had previously issued on its rulings allowing for same-sex marriages in those states.

On October 7, the Tenth Circuit lifted its own stay, at the request of state officials, on the case Burns v. Hickenlooper which struck down Colorado's same-sex marriage ban, legalizing same-sex marriage throughout all of Colorado. The Colorado Supreme Court also dissolved stays against several county clerks who were prohibited from issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples.

On November 4, 2014, a preliminary injunction barring the Secretary of the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, Douglas County and Sedgwick County from enforcing Kansas's same-sex marriage ban was issued. The Kansas attorney general contended that Crabtree's preliminary injunction only applied to the two counties and one state official involved in the lawsuit. However, many counties began issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples on their own initiative. The state government refused to recognize same-sex marriages until July 6, 2015, after the Supreme Court of the United States' landmark ruled in Obergefell v. Hodges on June 26, 2015. By June 30, 2015, all 31 judicial districts and all 105 Kansas counties were issuing licenses to same-sex couples or had agreed to do so. All states and all but one territory are complying with the ruling, which set a precedent that same-sex marriage bans are unconstitutional. Kansas was the last state in the country to recognize same-sex marriages.

title: New Horizons Youth Ministries

text:
New Horizons Youth Ministries was a Christian organization focused on child reform headquartered in Marion, Indiana and was shut down when the state of Indiana revoked its license as a childcare facility in 2009.

It was founded by Gordon C. Blossom (1921 - 1996).

Blossom developed the controversial "Culture Shock Therapy" and "Christian Milieu Therapy". New Horizons Youth Ministries was founded in 1971 in Grand Rapids, MI with his son Timothy G. Blossom, operating an overseas facility called Caribe Vista Youth Safari located in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. After facing the threat of immediate deportation of 43 staff and students due to failure to reinstate visas for over two years, the school relocated to La Vega, Dominican Republic and eventually settled in the remote mountain regions of Jarabacoa, Dominican Republic, calling itself Caribe Vista School/Escuela Caribe, described in the film Kidnapped for Christ and the bestseller Jesus Land.

Thousands of former students and parents of the students have alleged experiencing and witnessing widespread psychological, emotional, physical and sexual abuse.

title: Late preterm infant

text:
Late preterm infants are infants born at a gestational age between  weeks and  weeks. They have higher morbidity and mortality rates than term infants (gestational age ≥37 weeks) due to their relative physiologic and metabolic immaturity, even though they are often the size and weight of some term infants. "Late preterm" has replaced "near term" to describe this group of infants, since near term incorrectly implies that these infants are "almost term" and only require routine neonatal care.

In 2005, late-preterm births accounted for more than 70% of all preterm births (<37 weeks’ gestation), or approximately 377,000 infants. In fact, much of the increase in the preterm birth rate in recent years can be attributed to increases in late-preterm births.

Risk Factors
Several important factors that may predispose late-preterm infants to medical conditions associated with immaturity:
 respiratory distress
 apnea
 temperature instability
 hypoglycemia
 hyperbilirubinemia
 poor feeding

At 34–35 weeks, the brain weight is only about  that of a full-term baby.  This may lead to an increased risk of:
 Mental retardation
 Developmental delay/disability
 Special needs – education
 Retention in kindergarten
 Cerebral palsy

Neonatal Nutrition
Late preterm infants have immature gastrointestinal function and feeding difficulties that predispose them to in increase in enterohepatic circulation, decreased stool frequency, dehydration, and hyperbilirubinemia. Feeding during the birth hospitalization may be transiently successful, but not sustained after discharge. Feeding difficulties are associated with relatively low oromotor tone, function, and neural maturation also predispose these infants to dehydration and hyperbilirubinemia.

Late Preterm Infants have an increased risk of being underweight and stunted at 12 and 24 months of age versus term infants.

Proper nutrition is essential for normal growth, optimal neurologic and cognitive development, immune protection, and long-term health.

Feeding
The last trimester of pregnancy the fetus is expressing active amino acid transport, calcium, lipid transfer, and glucose facilitated diffusion.  Delivery of the premature infant requires higher energy expenditure, but with inadequate intake the infant will have negative nitrogen balance.  There are higher needs for Calcium, Phosphorus, and Vitamin D.

Early Nutrition and Cognitive Outcome
For every 10 kcal/kg increase in energy intake in the first week of life, there is a 4.6 points increase in MDI (Mental Development Index) at 18 months. For every 1 g/kg increase in protein intake in the first week of life, 8.2 point increase in MDI at 18 months.

Challenges to Feeding
 Small mouth and immature oral muscle
 Weak suck and poor latch
 Easily tire with feeding
 Maternal delayed milk production

When To Start Feeding

Factors such as hemodynamic stability, severe IUGR, respiratory, abdominal exam, whether feeding cues are present, and stable glucose could all effect the timing of nutrition.  Some preterm infants will be NPO (nil per os).  If infants are unable to start oral or enteral intake intravenous fluids may begin with amino acids or total parenteral nutrition.

According to the American Academy of Pediatrics section on breastfeeding recommendations are all infants should receive human milk.

Nutrient Needs by Gestational Age

Fortifiers
Use caution when fortifying single nutrients to prevent alteration of protein/energy ratio.  Center for Disease Control (CDC) recommends that sterile formulas and fortifiers be used when mom is not available.  Powdered formula and HMF may be contaminants. Start with the mom's diet during breastfeeding.  Mom should be eating adequate calories, protein, B vitamins and DHA.

How Much

Colostrum Production
Colostrum production can range from 26 to 56 mL the first day to 113-185 mL for day two.  Although colostrum production is not voluminous, it can still meet the needs of the newborn.

Feeding Methods
 Direct Breast Feeding
 Feeding tube at breast
 Cup/Finger feeding
 Bottle Feeding
 Gavage Tube (bolus feeding)

Strategies to Improve Outcome

Early Nutrition

 Colostrum Diet; Mother's own milk [Contains: Lactoferrin, Secretory IgA, Lysozyme, contains oligosaccharides (beneficial growth of good gut bacteria), and hormones]
 Trophic Feeds (beneficial effect on maturation of the intestinal tract)
 Donor Milk
 Fortify human milk
 Consistency in feedings important

title: Uterine epithelium

text:
The internal surface of the uterus is lined by uterine epithelial cells which undergo dramatic changes during pregnancy. The role of the uterine epithelial cells is to selectively allow the blastocyst to implant at a specific time (the time of implantation). All other times of the cycle, these uterine epithelial cells are refractory to blastocyst implantation. Uterine epithelial cells have a similar structure in most species and the changes which occur in the uterine epithelial cells at the time of blastocyst implantation are also conserved among most species.

Structure

The cytoplasm of uterine epithelial cells contains typical organelles found in other cells, including a nucleus, which is located towards the bottom of the cell with one or more prominent nucleoli, mitochondria, golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, free ribosomes, lysosomes, vesicles and lipid droplets. Like all epithelial cells, the uterine epithelial cells lie on a basal lamina.

Apical plasma membrane

The apical plasma membrane displays compositional variations that change at the time of implantation. The apical domain is specialized for the initial interaction with the embryo as well as controlling secretory and absorptive processes including endocytosis and pinocytosis. The apical surface of the uterine epithelial cells is covered with microvilli that are under hormonal control and vary in length and number with the oestrous cycle and during pregnancy. A hormonally dependent glycocalyx is found outside the microvilli while the center of the microvilli consists of an actin filament core which is embedded into the terminal web. The terminal web is a meshwork of actin filaments, which lies immediately below the microvilli and is important in maintaining the structural integrity of the cell surface as well as acting as a barrier to movement of cellular organelles.

Lateral plasma membrane

The lateral plasma membrane domain is responsible for cell adhesion and is believed to control the paracellular transport of fluid and electrolytes, that is transport of fluid between the cells. A junctional complex characterises this domain and consists of three specialized areas; the zonula occludens (tight junction), zonula adherens (adherens junction) and macula adherens (desmosome). The zonula occludens and zonula adherens form a continuous belt around the cell that provides a barrier to paracellular transport and are thought to be important in cell-cell communication.

Basal plasma membrane

The basal domain is essential for adhesion between the epithelium and underlying stroma as well as possible communication between these two regions. The uterine epithelial cells produce the basal lamina on which they rest. The basal lamina is composed of two regions; the lamina lucida that is an electron lucent layer adjacent to the basal plasma membrane and the lamina densa that is a closely packed network of fibers.

Changes at implantation

There are dramatic changes in the morphology and biochemical characteristics of the uterine epithelial cells in preparation for blastocyst implantation. These features include a loss of apical microvilli such that the apical plasma membrane becomes flattened. There is also a decrease in the amount of glycocalyx covering the apical surface  which leads to a reduction  in the negative charge of the uterine epithelial cells. Collectively, these plasma membrane changes have been termed the plasma membrane transformation. Changes in the lateral junctional complex are important in the regulation of fluid movement along the paracellular pathway, between the epithelial cells.

Tight junction changes during early pregnancy

During the early stages of pregnancy, prior to implantation, the tight junction complex, which is the main regulator of paracellular flow, extends 0.4 µm down the lateral plasma membrane with little cross-linking of the tight junctional strands. At this time, the tight junctions are quite 'leaky' allowing movement of fluid and solutes between the epithelial cells.

At the time of implantation the tight junctions extended further down the lateral plasma membrane (1 µm) and there was a significant increase in the cross-linking of the tight junctional strands. At the time of implantation the tight junctions are electrochemically 'tighter’ and prevent the movement of fluids and electrolytes between the cells. These changes were also found in ovariectomised rats treated with exogenous hormones. Animals treated with oestrogen displayed a picture of tight junctions similar to that seen on day 1 of pregnancy while rats treated with either progesterone alone or in combination with oestrogen had tight junctions with similar morphology to that seen at the time of implantation. Various components of the tight junctions regulate the selectivity of this paracellular pathway. For example, it has been shown that it is the claudin component of tight junctions regulates the charge selectivity of the tight junctions.

Fluid transport across cells

At the time of implantation in a number of species the uterine lumen closes down, which allows uterine epithelial cells to come into contact with each other and ‘fixes’ the blastocyst in place. Uterine closure involves mild generalised oedema and reabsorption of luminal fluid. Fluid absorption could occur through one or a combination of mechanisms; escape of uterine fluid through the cervix, which is unlikely, as this would have the potential to displace implanting blastocysts; endocytosis by pinopods, which develop at the time of attachment, or by transcellular means. This is influenced by the tight junction molecules and ion/water channels in the apical plasma membrane of uterine epithelial cells.

Studies have found an increase in claudin-4 within the tight junctions of uterine epithelial cells at the time of implantation and an increase in ENaC in the apical membrane of uterine epithelial cells. The increase in claudin-4 prevents the movement of Na+ ions between the cells, and the appearance of ENaC in the apical membrane allows movement of Na+ ions through the cell, from the lumen into the underlying stroma.  There is also an increase in AQP5 in the apical plasma membrane of uterine epithelial cells at time of implantation. The osmotic gradient created by the reabsorption of Na+ ions leads to reabsorption of water through AQP5 channels in the apical plasma membrane, which causes the uterine epithelial cells to come into contact with each other and the blastocyst.

title: Joseph D. Bernard House

text:
The Joseph D. Bernard House (also known as the Bernard-Bertrand House) is a historic house located in Rayne, Louisiana in the United States. The house is the former home of the first mayor of the city of Rayne, Joseph Bernard. As one of the oldest homes in Rayne. Today, the house serves as the Rayne Cultural Center.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on June 29, 2001.

History

The house, built in 1881, is the former home of Joseph D. Bernard, co-founder and first mayor of Rayne, Louisiana, which was incorporated in 1883. The house was built on West South 1st Street. Bernard sold the house in 1918 to E.J. Bertrand, who ran the town power plant.  Around 1999, the house was threatened to be demolished. That year, it was moved to its current location to avoid demolition.

title: European Technical Center

text:
The European Technical Center (ETC) is a U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) signals intelligence facility in Mainz-Kastel, Wiesbaden, Germany.  Located in Building 4009 of the U.S. Army's Mainz-Kastel Storage Station, the facility serves as the NSA's "primary communications hub" in Europe. The center was known by the code name "GODLIKELESION".

History
In December 2005, a metal object discovered near the facility was suspected of being an undetonated World War II explosive. On January 24, 2006, NSA analysts evacuated the ETC while the object was investigated, shutting down the center for a full day. The suspicious ordnance proved to be merely a "pile of junk".

In 2010, the center began experiencing technical difficulties, losing power over 150 times over the period of a few months. These events prompted the United States to expand and refurbish the facility, which was completed on September 19, 2011. Since then, the center has served as the NSA's "primary communications hub" in Europe, intercepting and forwarding large amounts of data to the NSA, U.S. military, and U.S. strategic partners in Europe, Africa and the Middle East.

The facility was disclosed in 2014 in documents released by the former NSA contractor Edward Snowden.

title: Gunung Ambang Nature Reserve

text:
Gunung Ambang Nature Reserve is a preserved area in the north of the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia. It is in a mountainous, little-explored region and contains a large number of indigenous plants and animals.

Geography
The Gunung Ambang Nature Reserve has an area of about 8,000 hectares and is situated close to the equator in the mountainous area to the east of Bogani Nani Wartabone National Park in the northern peninsula of Sulawesi. It ranges in altitude from  to the summit of Mount Moyayat at  andconsists mostly of valleys and steep-sided mountains. The lower parts are covered by evergreen rainforest with few palms and a canopy of up to  with some emergent trees. In the higher parts the trees are not so tall and there is a dense understorey of palms and other vegetation. There are a number of marshes and small lakes and, particularly near the edge of the park, trees have been felled and there are clearings and the growth of secondary forest.

The reserve is best accessed from the village of Singsingon, which is an hour's drive from Kotamobagu. Visitors need a permit to visit the park and these can be obtained from the National Park Office in Kotamobagu.

Flora and fauna
Trees in the lowland rainforest area of the reserve include Calophyllum, Eugenia, Knema, Litsea, Sterculia insularis, Acalypha caturus and Cryptocarya celebicum with the largest trees being Pometia pinnata, Endospermum peltatum and Canarium asperum. On higher slopes Eugenia sp., Lithocarpus celebicus, Lithocarpus bancanus, Calophyllum treubii, Calophyllum soulattri, Derris dalbergoides and Vaccinium sp. predominated with an understorey which included many palms.

The Gunung Ambang Nature Reserve is of particular interest to bird watchers and many species of bird endemic to Sulawesi can be seen here. One of the rarest is the cinnabar hawk owl, first described in 1999. Other nocturnal birds include the Sulawesi masked owl, the Sulawesi scops owl and the great eared nightjar.

A number of species of flycatcher can be seen in the canopy, often in mixed-species flocks, a rarity being the Matinan blue flycatcher. More common species include the citrine canary-flycatcher, the snowy-browed flycatcher, the little pied flycatcher and the turquoise flycatcher. Also present in these flocks among the trees are the sulphur-vented whistler, the Sulawesi babbler, the streak-headed white-eye, the crimson-crowned flowerpecker, the cerulean cuckooshrike and the Sulawesi leaf warbler. Also often present nearby are the scarlet myzomela and the dark-eared myza. The call of Malia grata can often be heard, and the Sulawesi drongo, the yellow-billed malkoha and the Sulawesi fantail are also present. The purple-bearded bee-eater is an elusive denizen of woodland verges and open areas and the olive-flanked whistler is a rare upland species. Other birds that occur in the forest under-storey and on the ground include the mountain tailorbird and the scaly-breasted kingfisher.

Raptors are chiefly found at the edge of the forest and in areas under cultivation. In the upland areas of the nature reserve are pigeons, lorikeets, parrots, including the golden-mantled racket-tail, and hornbills, although these large-billed birds are uncommon.

There are a number of mammals in the reserve although these face hunting pressure, with traps being set, mostly for small mammals. The Celebes crested macaque is found in the reserve and the spectral tarsier is also present but both of these are very wary of humans. Rare mammals include the anoa, the Celebes warty pig, the Sulawesi bear cuscus and the Sulawesi dwarf cuscus, and there are plenty of forest rats which emerge into the open at night.

title: Jiles–Atherton model

text:
In electromagnetism and materials science, the Jiles–Atherton model of magnetic hysteresis was introduced in 1984 by David Jiles and D. L. Atherton. This is one of the most popular models of magnetic hysteresis. Its main advantage is the fact that this model enables connection with physical parameters of the magnetic material. Jiles–Atherton model enables calculation of minor and major hysteresis loops.
The original Jiles–Atherton model is suitable only for isotropic materials. However, an extension of this model presented by Ramesh et al. and corrected by Szewczyk  enables the modeling of anisotropic magnetic materials.

Principles

Magnetization  of the magnetic material sample in Jiles–Atherton model is calculated in the following steps  for each value of the magnetizing field :
 effective magnetic field  is calculated considering interdomain coupling  and magnetization ,
 anhysteretic magnetization  is calculated for effective magnetic field ,
 magnetization  of the sample is calculated by solving ordinary differential equation taking into account sign of derivative of magnetizing field  (which is the source of hysteresis).

Parameters

Original Jiles–Atherton model considers following parameters:

Extension considering uniaxial anisotropy introduced by Ramesh et al. and corrected by Szewczyk  requires additional parameters:

Modelling the magnetic hysteresis loops

Effective magnetic field
Effective magnetic field  influencing on magnetic moments within the material may be calculated from the following equation:

This effective magnetic field is analogous to the Weiss mean field acting on magnetic moments within a magnetic domain.

Anhysteretic magnetization

Anhysteretic magnetization can be observed experimentally, when magnetic material is demagnetized under the influence of constant magnetic field. However, measurements of anhysteretic magnetization are very sophisticated due to the fact, that the fluxmeter has to keep accuracy of integration during the demagnetization process. As a result, experimental verification of the model of anhysteretic magnetization is possible only for materials with negligible hysteresis loop.
Anhysteretic magnetization of typical magnetic material can be calculated as a weighted sum of isotropic and anisotropic anhysteretic magnetization:

Isotropic

Isotropic anhysteretic magnetization  is determined on the base of Boltzmann distribution. In the case of isotropic magnetic materials, Boltzmann distribution can be reduced to Langevin function connecting isotropic anhysteretic magnetization with effective magnetic field :

Anisotropic

Anisotropic anhysteretic magnetization  is also determined on the base of Boltzmann distribution. However, in such a case, there is no antiderivative for the Boltzmann distribution function. For this reason, integration has to be made numerically. In the original publication, anisotropic anhysteretic magnetization  is given as:

where

It should be highlighted, that a typing mistake occurred in the original Ramesh et al. publication. As a result, for an isotropic material (where ), the presented form of anisotropic anhysteretic magnetization  is not consistent with the isotropic anhysteretic magnetization  given by the Langevin equation. Physical analysis leads to the conclusion that the equation for anisotropic anhysteretic magnetization  has to be corrected to the following form:

In the corrected form, the model for anisotropic anhysteretic magnetization  was confirmed experimentally for anisotropic amorphous alloys.

Magnetization as a function of magnetizing field

In Jiles–Atherton model, M(H) dependence is given in form of following ordinary differential equation:

where  depends on direction of changes of magnetizing field  ( for increasing field,  for decreasing field)

Flux density as a function of magnetizing field
Flux density  in the material is given as:

where  is magnetic constant.

Vectorized Jiles–Atherton model

Vectorized Jiles–Atherton model is constructed as the superposition of three scalar models one for each principal axis. This model is especially suitable for finite element method computations.

Numerical implementation

The Jiles–Atherton model is implemented in JAmodel, a MATLAB/OCTAVE toolbox. It uses the Runge-Kutta algorithm for solving ordinary differential equations. JAmodel is open-source is under MIT license.

The two most important computational problems connected with the Jiles–Atherton model were identified:
 numerical integration of the anisotropic anhysteretic magnetization
 solving the ordinary differential equation for  dependence.
For numerical integration of the anisotropic anhysteretic magnetization  the Gauss–Kronrod quadrature formula has to be used. In GNU Octave this quadrature is implemented as quadgk() function.

For solving ordinary differential equation for  dependence, the Runge–Kutta methods are recommended. It was observed, that the best performing was 4-th order fixed step method.

Further development

Since its introduction in 1984, Jiles–Atherton model was intensively developed. As a result, this model may be applied for the  modeling of:
 frequency dependence of magnetic hysteresis loop in conductive materials
 influence of stresses on magnetic hysteresis loops
 magnetostriction of soft magnetic materials

Moreover, different corrections were implemented, especially:
 to avoid unphysical states when reversible permeability is negative
 to consider changes of average energy required to break pinning site

Applications

Jiles–Atherton model may be applied for modeling:
 rotating electric machines
 power transformers
 magnetostrictive actuators
 magnetoelastic sensors
 magnetic field sensors (e. g. fluxgates)

It is also widely used for electronic circuit simulation, especially for models of inductive components, such as transformers or chokes.

title: Christina Tosi

text:
Christina Tosi (born 1981) is an American chef and cookbook author. She is founder and co-owner with Momofuku of Milk Bar and serves as its chef and chief executive officer. Food & Wine magazine included her in their 2014 list of "Most Innovative Women in Food and Drink".

She is the author of several cookbooks. She has served as a judge on the reality competition MasterChef and presented for the Netflix series Bake Squad. She has won two James Beard Foundation awards.

She created Milk Bar Pie and Cereal Milk.

Early life and education
Tosi was born in 1981 in Berea, Ohio; her father, Gino Tosi, was an agricultural economist and her mother managing partner in an accounting firm. The couple divorced while Tosi was a teenager, and she was raised primarily in Springfield, Virginia. She has an older sister, Angela. Tosi recalls not being allowed to say "I can't" or "I'm bored".

Her interest in baking dates to her childhood; both of her grandmothers are "avid bakers", according to Tosi. Her parents both had a sweet tooth. She ran track in high school and still runs regularly. She was interested in math and foreign languages. In college she worked serving tables and then as a prep cook and baker.

Tosi studied electrical engineering for one year at the University of Virginia and graduated from James Madison University with degrees in applied mathematics and Italian, then enrolled in the French Culinary Institute's pastry arts program. While attending culinary school she worked as a host at Aquagrill, eventually being promoted to maître d’hotel.

Culinary career
Tosi externed and then worked at Bouley, interned at Saveur, and then worked at wd~50. She found the exacting plating required in fine dining wasn't something she enjoyed and decided she didn't want to work as an executive pastry chef in fine dining restaurants. Tosi had In 2005 helped to write wd~50s Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point plan. On the recommendation of Wylie Dufresne, David Chang hired Tosi in 2005 at Momofuku to create a plan for Momofuku, which had just discovered they needed such a plan in order to cook with a vacuum-sealing system. Chang hired Tosi to create the plan, then eventually to do other administrative work and liaise with the NYC Department of Health. According to the New York Times the job was "so loosely defined" that her duties were described as "et cetera". Now not baking professionally, Tosi started baking at home again and brought her homebaked items in for other staff. Chang eventually moved her to a position developing and overseeing the restaurant group's pastry program.

There were no desserts on Chang's menu when Tosi came on board, and she created her own pastries inspired by the flavors of childhood favorites, developing recipes such as Cereal Milk-flavored panna cotta.
In 2008, a space next door to Momofuku Ssam Bar's became available, and Chang encouraged Tosi to open her own shop, which she named Milk Bar. Tosi created the original logo herself by simply typing 'milk' in Brush Script Medium.

Milk Bar first opened its doors on November 15, 2008. When they first opened, Milk Bar had a team of only five people and were often open for 16 hours a day. Tosi's approach was to use pastry chef techniques to create comfort-food influenced desserts served in a casual setting. She serves as Milk Bar's chef and chief executive officer.

Culinary influence
She developed recipes such as Cereal Milk, Compost Cookies, Crack Pie (now known as Milk Bar Pie) and Candy Bar Pie.

In 2017 Ben & Jerry's introduced a line of flavors that Eater called a [blatant ripoff] of Tosi's Cereal Milk.

According to the New York Times in 2021, "Nothing bears the trademark of the pastry chef Christina Tosi more than her cereal milk flavor." According to the Seattle Times in 2022, Tosi is "often credited with starting the soft-serve craze in restaurants".

Axios in 2022 called Tosi's cereal milk and crack pie creations "cult favorites". Francis Fabricant said Tosi "made Cereal Milk soft-serve and the Compost Cookie household names".

Books

Tosi has written several cookbooks and a memoir.

Tosi's Momofuku Milk Bar (2011), a cookbook containing recipes from the restaurant, was published by Clarkson Potter.  Susan Chang in The Washington Post called it "a hard-core baking book, dense with text, full of sub-recipes", recipes which are ingredients for the main recipe and need to be prepared prior to preparing the main recipe. Melanie Haupt in the Austin Chronicle agreed that preparation of some of the recipes was "a massive pain" to prepare due to the many sub-recipes required.

Tosi's Milk Bar Life (2015) was published by Random House. Washington Post reviewer Chang said "There’s something intellectually provocative about 'Milk Bar Life,' with its mad juxtapositions of Fruity Pebbles and slow-simmered sauces", but that "after the chemical party in your mouth subsides, you might just find yourself longing for a poached pear". Jenny Rosenstrach of the New York Times Book Review wrote of her second book, "It's impossible not to be charmed by the chatty Tosi and her hot pink and bubble-letter-filled never-never land..."

Tosi's Dessert Can Save the World (2022) was described by Publishers Weekly as a "clumpy mix of memoir and self-help", saying that "Despite the delicious premise, the filling leaves much to be desired."

Media
Tosi joined the judging panel of MasterChef on Fox beginning with its sixth season, which premiered May 20, 2015, as well as the fourth season of MasterChef Junior, which premiered November 6, 2015. In April 2018 she was featured in an episode of Chef's Table: Pastry. She has presented for the Netflix series Bake Squad and been a judge on Chopped.

At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, Tosi launched Bake Club, a virtual space where participants could bake alongside her daily.

Tosi has made advertising appearances for Subaru, American Express, Kellogg's, and Estée Lauder.

Recognition
In 2014 Food and Wine Magazine named Tosi to their list of "Most Innovative Women in Food and Drink". The New York Times. called her Cereal Milk "the brilliant idea of making soft-serve from the milk at the bottom of a cereal bowl."

Tosi received the James Beard Foundation award for Rising Star Chef of the Year for her work at Milk Bar in 2012, the first pastry chef to do so. In 2015, she received the James Beard Outstanding Pastry Chef award. In 2016, Crain's New York Business included Tosi in their annual list of the top 40 business persons working in New York City who are under the age of 40.

Personal life
The New York Times describes Tosi as "an introvert in overalls who carries math problems in her purse, along with embroidery thread to make friendship bracelets". She makes popsicle stick art and runs daily.

On July 30, 2016, Tosi married New York City-based restaurateur Will Guidara, co-owner of Eleven Madison Park. In March 2021, the couple had a daughter. They lived in a Flatiron penthouse which according to the New York Times they purchased in 2016 for $3.7 million. The penthouse was eventually sold in October 2022 for $4.4 million.
