The Defence of Provocation
Topics: Criminal law, Murder, Manslaughter / Pages: 9 (2048 words) / Published: Oct 24th, 2012
Provocation is a defence which reduces the offence of murder to manslaughter. Even though there may be an intent to kill it can be deemed that, in some circumstances, it is not appropriate to be classified as murder. It is not saying the killing is justified or excused. What it is saying is that the circumstances, the response (which resulted in the killing) is within the normal range of behaviour of what can be expected of the ordinary person and that it represents an acknowledgement of human frailty. This is the traditional view of the law.[1] When the penalty for murder was death, often provocation was a way of reducing the punishment from the death penalty to life imprisonment. In jurisdictions where there was a mandatory life sentence, there was also an argument for this defence to be in existence. [2] In this paper, the issues of the relevant stakeholders, previous provocation cases, and the law will be discussed in regards to any amendments or recommendations that need to be made in changing the current law in regards to the defence of provocation and how it will affect the Queensland society and its stakeholders.
One of the main issues with the defence of provocation include the timing between the act relied on as being provocative and the assault or killing is very important. The longer the time between the provocative act and the assault or killing the more difficult it is going to be to use the defence.[3] This time limit for the provocation defence has caused difficulties in the case of 'battered spouse syndrome'. These are cases where one party to a relationship, usually the woman, puts up with serve physical, emotional abuse from her partner. Eventually she 'snaps' and acts violently towards her partner. Women in this situation, who have tried to use this defence, have often been unsuccessful in proving provocation. This applies only where the assault is proportional to the provocative act. So, killing a person because

Argument Against Provocation In Australia
Provocation – a partial defence for murder, originating in the Medieval times, 400 years ago, acting as a concession for human frailty. Its primary source was to ensure that one guilty of killing 'in the heat of passion' would not face the, then mandatory death penalty. Indeed, it has become quite the mockery that in the modern, civilized society that Australia exists in today, that Queensland refuses to abolish the defence; no matter its incapability of reaching many agreed upon criterions of a….

"I think that if you shake the tree, you ought to be around when the fruit falls to pick it up."
American Mary Cassatt was one of the leading artists in the Impressionist movement of the later part of the 1800s.
Mary Cassatt was s leading artists in the Impressionist movement. Moving to Paris, her home for the rest of her life, she was befriended by Edgar Degas. After 1910, her increasingly poor eyesight virtually put an end to her serious painting, and she died in 1926.
Mary Stevenson Cassatt was born on May 22, 1844, in Allegheny City, Pennsylvania. Cassatt was the daughter of a well-to-do real estate and investment broker, and her upbringing reflected her family's high social standing. Her schooling prepared her to be a proper wife and mother and included such classes as homemaking, embroidery, music, sketching and painting. During the 1850s, the Cassatts took their children abroad to live in Europe for several years.
Though women of her day were discouraged from pursuing a career, Cassatt enrolled in Philadelphia's Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts at age 16. Not surprisingly, she found the male faculty and her fellow students to be patronizing and resentful of her attendance. Cassatt also became frustrated by the curriculum's slow pace and inadequate course offerings. She decided to leave the program and move to Europe where she could study the works of the Old Masters on her own, firsthand.
Despite her family's strong objections (her father declared he would rather see his daughter dead than living abroad as a "bohemian"), Cassatt left for Paris in 1866. She began her study with private art lessons in the Louvre, where she would study and copy masterpieces. She continued to study and paint in relative obscurity until 1868, when one of her portraits was selected at the prestigious Paris Salon, an annual exhibition run by the French government. With her father's disapproving words echoing in her ears, Cassatt submitted the well-received painting under the name Mary Stevenson.
In 1870, soon after the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian War, Cassatt reluctantly returned home to live with her parents. The artistic freedom she enjoyed while living abroad was immediately extinguished upon her return to the outskirts of Philadelphia. Not only did she have trouble finding proper supplies, but her father refused to pay for anything connected with her art. To raise funds, she tried to sell some of her paintings in New York, but to no avail. When she tried again to sell them through a dealer in Chicago, the paintings were tragically destroyed in a fire in 1871.
In the midst of these obstacles, Cassatt was contacted by the archbishop of Pittsburgh. He wanted to commission the artist to paint copies of two works by the Italian master Correggio. Cassatt accepted the assignment and left immediately for Europe, where the originals were on display in Parma, Italy. With the money she earned from the commission, she was able to resume her career in Europe. The Paris Salon accepted her paintings for exhibitions in 1872, 1873 and 1874, which helped secure her status as an established artist. She continued to study and paint in Spain, Belgium and Rome, eventually settling permanently in Paris.
Though she felt indebted to the Salon for building her career, Cassatt began to feel increasingly constrained by its inflexible guidelines. No longer concerned with what was fashionable or commercial, she began to experiment artistically. Her new work drew criticism for its bright colors and unflattering accuracy of its subjects. During this time, she drew courage from painter Degas, whose pastels inspired her to press on in her own direction. "I used to go and flatten my nose against that window and absorb all I could of his art," she once wrote to a friend. "It changed my life. I saw art then as I wanted to see it."
Her admiration for Degas would soon blossom into a strong friendship, and Cassatt exhibited 11 of her paintings with the Impressionists in 1879. The show was a huge success both commercially and critically, and similar exhibits were staged in 1880 and 1881. Shortly thereafter marked a dormant period for Cassatt, who was forced to withdraw from the art world to care for her ill mother and sister. Her sister died in 1882, but after her mother regained her health, Cassatt was able to resume painting.
While many of her fellow Impressionists were focused on landscapes and street scenes, Cassatt became famous for her portraits. She was especially drawn to women in everyday domestic settings, especially mothers with their children. But unlike the Madonnas and cherubs of the Renaissance, Cassatt's portraits were unconventional in their direct and honest nature. Commenting in American Artist, Gemma Newman noted that "her constant objective was to achieve force, not sweetness; truth, not sentimentality or romance."
Cassatt's painting style continued to evolve away from Impressionism in favor of a simpler, more straightforward approach. Her final exhibition with the Impressionists was in 1886, and she subsequently stopped identifying herself with a particular movement or school. Her experimentation with a variety of techniques often led her to unexpected places. For example, drawing inspiration from Japanese master printmakers, she exhibited a series of colored prints, including Woman Bathing and The Coiffure, in 1891.
Soon after, Cassatt began taking an interest in young, American artists. She also sponsored fellow Impressionists and encouraged wealthy Americans to support the fledgling movement by purchasing artwork. She became an advisor to several major collectors, with the stipulation that their purchases would eventually be passed on to American art museums.
A 1910 trip to Egypt with her brother and his family would prove to be a turning a point in Cassatt's life. The magnificent ancient art made her question her own talent as an artist. Soon after their return home, her brother died unexpectedly from an illness he contracted during the journey. These two events deeply affected Cassatt's physical and emotional health, and she was unable to paint again until around 1912.
Three years later, she was forced to give up painting altogether as diabetes slowly stole her vision. For the next 11 years, until her death—on June 14, 1926, in Le Mesnil-Théribus, France — Cassatt lived in almost total blindness, bitterly unhappy to be robbed of her greatest source of pleasure.

Q: SonataAdminBundle with translatable fields (doctrine extensions) I'm having a table with all translations in a "ext_translations" table.
The translating works great. The problem is now: I want to manage those translations via sonata-admin bundle.
I have already found a documentation, how to get work doctrine extensions with sonata admin. But in my case I have ONE table/entity for all my translations (for multiple entities).
So according to this documentation: http://www.elao.com/blog/symfony-2/doctrine-2/how-to-manage-translations-for-your-object-using-sonataadminbundle.html what should be my mappedBy attribute (see below)?
ext_translations table:
mysql> show columns from ext_translations;
+--------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field        | Type         | Null | Key | Default | Extra          |
+--------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| id           | int(11)      | NO   | PRI | NULL    | auto_increment |
| locale       | varchar(8)   | NO   | MUL | NULL    |                |
| object_class | varchar(255) | NO   |     | NULL    |                |
| field        | varchar(32)  | NO   |     | NULL    |                |
| foreign_key  | varchar(64)  | NO   |     | NULL    |                |
| content      | longtext     | YES  |     | NULL    |                |
+--------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+

MappedBy:
   /**
     * @ORM\OneToMany(targetEntity="ProfileTranslation", mappedBy="object", cascade={"persist", "remove"})
     */
    protected $translations;

As far as I understood the problem here: "I have a composite key (objectclass (the entity) + name (of the attribute) + foreignKey (id of entity)), so how should the 'mappedBy' refer to this?
I don't want to create an extra class for each translatable entity (like in the tutorial from above)

A: Your situation is quite complex. Probably the best could be if you dont use any anotation, override the repository class, and build all your own logic.
We can try to leverage the new ability since Doctrine 2.1 of creating composite Composite Keys as Primary Key, as Feras said in his comment.

Doctrine 2 supports composite primary keys natively. Composite keys
  are a very powerful relational database concept and we took good care
  to make sure Doctrine 2 supports as many of the composite primary key
  use-cases. For Doctrine 2.0 composite keys of primitive data-types are
  supported, for Doctrine 2.1 even foreign keys as primary keys are
  supported.

In the docs, we have a good example to a use case that is more or less similar to yours:

Dynamic Attributes of an Entity (for example Article). Each Article
  has many attributes with primary key "article_id" and
  "attribute_name".

You can see the example here: http://docs.doctrine-project.org/en/latest/tutorials/composite-primary-keys.html#use-case-1-dynamic-attributes
But since that approach only considers one entity, we have to adapt it to your needs. We can follow this steps:

*

*Create a sort of views of your ext_translations table
CREATE VIEW profile_ext_translations
AS
SELECT *
FROM ext_translations
WHERE  object_class = 'Profile'

*Then create different entities, for that views, so i.e. you would have an entity ProfileExtTranslations with a composite primary key, as follows:
**
* @Entity
*/
class ProfileExtTranslations
{

  /**
  * @ORM\ManyToOne(targetEntity="Profile", inversedBy="translations")
  * @ORM\JoinColumn(name="foreign_key", referencedColumnName="id", onDelete="CASCADE")*/
   private $profile;

 /** @Id @Column(type="string") */
 private $field;

 //Other fields and methods

}

*And now, the code of the Profile entity, in the mappedBy of the translations, you just use:
/**
* @ORM\OneToMany(targetEntity="ProfileExtTranslation", mappedBy="profile", cascade={"persist", "remove"})
*/
protected $translations;

And with this and probably a litle  tunning, you should have it working.

\section{Introduction}

The Effective Field Theory (EFT) of Point-Like Interactions is a
model-independent approach to systems without infinite-range forces in Atomic,
Molecular and Nuclear Physics at very-low energies with shallow real or
virtual 2-body bound-states (``dimers''), see
e.g.~\cite{bedaque_bira_review,Braaten:2004rn} for reviews. When the size or
scattering length $a$ of a 2-body system is much larger than the size (or
interaction range) $R$ of the constituents, a small, dimension-less parameter
$Q=\frac{R}{a}$ allows to classify the typical size of neglected corrections
at $n$th order beyond leading order (\NXLO{n}) as about $Q^{n}$. For example,
$a\approx104$~\AA\ and $R\approx1$~\AA\ in the ${}^4\mathrm{He}_2$ molecule,
i.e.~$Q\approx\frac{1}{100}$, while $a\approx4.5\;\ensuremath{\mathrm{fm}}$ and $R\approx1.5$ in
the deuteron, i.e.~$Q\approx\frac{1}{3}$ in the ``pion-less'' EFT, EFT(${\pi\hskip-0.55em /}$)\xspace,
where pion-exchange between nucleons is not resolved as non-local. Thus, the
detailed dynamics on the ``high-energy'' scale $R$ can vary largely: For
example, attractive van-der-Waals forces $\propto\frac{1}{r^6}$ balance in
${}^4\mathrm{He}_2$ a repulsive core generated by QED; but in Nuclear Physics,
one-pion exchange $\propto\frac{1}{r^{[1\dots3]}}$ is balanced by a
short-range repulsion whose origin in QCD is not yet understood. It is a
pivotal advantage of an EFT that it allows predictions of pre-determined
accuracy without such detailed understanding -- as long as one is interested
in low-energy processes, i.e.~Physics at the scale $a$, and not $R$. Even when
possible (as in QED -- at least at scales $\ge1\;\ensuremath{\mathrm{fm}}$), EFTs reduce
numerically often highly involved computations of short-distance contributions
to low-energy observables by encoding them into a few simple,
model-independent constants of contact interactions between the constituents.
These in turn can be determined by simpler simulations of the underlying
theory, or -- when they are as in QCD not (yet) tenable -- by fit to data.
Universal aspects of few-body systems with shallow bound-states are manifest
in EFTs, with deviations systematically calculable. In 2-body scattering for
example, the EFT of Point-Like Interactions reproduces the Effective-Range
Expansion, but goes beyond it in the systematic, gauge-invariant inclusion of
external currents, relativistic effects, etc.

Take 3-body forces (3BFs): They parameterise interactions on scales much
smaller than what can be resolved by 2-body interactions, i.e.~in which 3
particles sit on top of each other in a volume smaller than $R^3$.
Traditionally, they were often introduced \emph{a posteriori} to cure
discrepancies between experiment and theory, but such an approach is of course
untenable when data are scarce or 1- and 2-body properties should be extracted
from 3-body data.  But how important are 3BFs in observables? The
classification in EFTs rests on the tenet that a 3BF is included if and only
if necessary to cancel cut-off dependences in low-energy observables. I
outline this philosophy and its results in the following, finding that --
independent of the underlying mechanism -- 3BFs behave very much alike in such
disparate systems as molecular trimers and 3-nucleon systems, but do not
follow simplistic expectations.

\section{Construction}

In the Faddeev equation of particle-dimer scattering without 3BFs,
Fig.~\ref{fig:kinematics}, the $\mathrm{S}$-wave 2-body scattering amplitude
is given by the LO-term of the Effective-Range Expansion.  This dimer and the
remaining particle ``interact'' via $\calK_l$, the one-particle propagator
projected onto relative angular momentum $l$.
\begin{figure}[!htb]
\begin{center}
  \includegraphics*[width=\textwidth]{GriesshammerFig1.eps}
  \caption{Left: integral equation of particle-dimer scattering. Right:
    generic loop correction (rectangle) at \NXLO{n}. Thick line ($D$):
    2-body propagator; thin line ($\calK_l$): propagator of the exchanged
    particle; ellipse: LO half off-shell amplitude $t_\lambda^{(l)}(p)$.}
\label{fig:kinematics}
\label{fig:higherorders}
\end{center}
\end{figure}
Even for small relative on-shell momenta $k$ between dimer and particle, we
need the scattering amplitude $t_\lambda^{(l)}(p)$ for \emph{all} off-shell
momenta $p$ to determine its value at the on-shell point $p=k$, and hence in
particular for $p$ beyond the scale $\frac{1}{R}$ on which a description in
terms of point-like constituents is tenable. It is therefore natural to demand
that all low-energy observables on a scale $k\sim\frac{1}{a}$ are insensitive
to derails of the amplitude at $p\gg\frac{1}{R}$, namely to form and value of
the regulator, form-factor or cut-off chosen.  If not, a 3BF must soak up the
dependence.  In an EFT, this is the fundamental tenet: Include a 3BF \emph{if
  and only if} it is needed as counter-term to cancel divergences which can
not be absorbed by renormalising 2-body interactions. Thus, only combinations
of 2- and 3BFs are physically meaningful. With the cut-off variation of the
3BF thus fixed, the initial condition leads to one free parameter fixed from a
3-body datum or knowledge of the underlying physics.  3BFs are thus not added
out of phenomenological needs but to guarantee that observables are
insensitive to off-shell effects.

A Mellin transformation $t_\lambda^{(l)}(p)\propto p^{-s_l(\lambda)-1}$ solves
the equation for $p\gg k,\frac{1}{a}$.  The spin-content is then encoded only
in the homogeneous term: $\lambda=-\frac{1}{2}$ for 3 nucleons with total spin
$\frac{3}{2}$, or for the totally spin and iso-spin
\mbox{(Wigner-)}\disc{}anti-symmetric part of the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$-channel;
$\lambda=1$ for 3 identical spin-less bosons and the totally spin and iso-spin
\mbox{(Wigner-)}\disc{}symmetric part of the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$-channel.  The
asymptotic exponent $s_l(\lambda)$ has to fulfil $\Re[s]>-1$,
$\Re[s]\not=\Re[l\pm2]$, and
\begin{equation}
  \label{eq:s}
  1=\left(-1\right)^l\;\frac{2^{1-l}\lambda}{\sqrt{3\pi}}\;
  \frac{\Gamma\left[\frac{l+s+1}{2}\right]\Gamma\left[\frac{l-s+1}{2}\right]}
  {\Gamma\left[\frac{2l+3}{2}\right]}\;
  {}_2F_1\left[\frac{l+s+1}{2},\frac{l-s+1}{2};
    \frac{2l+3}{2};\frac{1}{4}\right].
\end{equation}
This result was first derived in the hyper-spherical approach by Gasaneo and
Macek~\cite{lost}\footnote{My apologies to the authors that I found this
  reference only after \cite{Griesshammer:2005ga} was published.}.  The
asymptotics depends thus only but crucially on $\lambda$ and $l$. Relevant in
the UV-limit are the solutions for which $\Re[s+1]$ is minimal.

At first glance, we would expect the asymptotics to be given by the
asymptotics of the inhomogeneous (driving) term:
$t_\lambda^{(l)}(p)\stackrel{?}{\propto}\frac{k^l}{p^{l+2}}$,
i.e.~$s_{l}(\lambda)\stackrel{?}{=}l+1$. However, we must sum an infinite
number of graphs already at leading order. As Fig.~\ref{fig:s-lambdafixed}
shows, this modifies the asymptotics considerably.
\begin{figure}[!ht]
\begin{center}
  \includegraphics*[width=0.48\textwidth]{GriesshammerFig2a.eps}\hfill
  \includegraphics*[width=0.48\textwidth]{GriesshammerFig2b.eps}
\caption{The first two solutions $s_l(\lambda)$ at $\lambda=1$ (left) and
  $\lambda=-\frac{1}{2}$. Solid (dotted): real (imaginary) part; dashed: simplistic
  estimate.
  Dark/light: first/second solution. Limit cycle and Efimov effect occur only
  when the solid line lies below the dashed one, and $\Im[s]\not=0$.}
\label{fig:s-lambdafixed}
\end{center}
\end{figure}

How sensitive are higher-order corrections to the UV-behaviour of
$t_\lambda^{(l)}(p)$?  The 2-body scattering-amplitude is systematically
improved by including the effective range, higher partial waves etc.
Corrections to 3-body observables (including partial-wave mixing) are found by
perturbing around the LO solution as in Fig.~\ref{fig:kinematics}. Most
sensitive to unphysically high momenta is each correction at \NXLO{n} which is
proportional to the $n$th power of loop momenta. The question when it becomes
cut-off sensitive is now rephrased as: When does the correction diverge as the
cut-off is removed, i.e.~when is its \emph{superficial degree of divergence}
non-negative? The answer by simply counting loop momenta in the diagram:
\begin{equation}
  \label{eq:twobodydivs}
  \Re[n-s_l(\lambda)-s_{l^\prime}(\lambda^\prime)]\geq0\;\;.
\end{equation}
We therefore find at which order the first 3BF is needed just by determining
when a correction to the 3-body amplitude with only 2-body interactions
becomes dependent on unphysical short-distance behaviour.

It is instructive to re-visit these findings in position space.  The
Schr\"odinger equation for the wave-function in the hyper-radial
dimer-particle distance $r$,
\begin{equation}
  \label{eq:hyperradial}
  \left[-\frac{1}{r}\;\frac{\partial}{\partial r}\;r\;\frac{\partial}{\partial r}+
  \frac{s_l^2(\lambda)}{r^2}-ME\right] F(r)=0\;\;,
\end{equation}
looks like the one for a free particle with centrifugal barrier. One would
thus expect $s_l\stackrel{?}{=}l+1$ (hyper-spherical co-ordinates!). It had
however already been recognised by Minlos and Faddeev that the centrifugal
term is for three bosons ($\lambda=1$) despite expectations attractive, so
that the wave-function collapses to the origin and seems infinitely sensitive
to very-short-distance physics. In order to stabilise the system against
collapse -- or, equivalently, remove dependence on details of the cut-off --,
a 3BF must be added -- or, equivalently, a self-adjoint extension be specified
at the origin i.e.~a boundary condition for the wave-function must be fixed by
a 3-body datum. On the other hand, 3BFs are demoted if $s_l> l+1$: The
centrifugal barrier provides \emph{more} repulsion than expected, and hence
the wave-function is pushed further out, i.e.~\emph{less} sensitive to details
at distances $r\lesssim R$ where the constituents are resolved as extended.
Birse confirmed this recently by a renormalisation-group analysis in
position-space~\cite{Birse:2005pm}.

\section{Consequences}

About half of the 3BFs for $l\leq 2$ are \emph{weaker}, half \emph{stronger}
than one would expect simplistically, see Table~\ref{tab:ordering}. The higher
partial-waves follow expectation, as the Faddeev equation is then saturated by
the Born approximation.

  \label{tab:ordering}
\end{table}
The $\mathrm{S}$-wave 3BF of spin-less bosons is stronger, while the
$\mathrm{P}$-wave 3BF is weaker.

That the first $\mathrm{S}$-wave 3BF appears already at LO leads to a new
renormalisation-group phenomenon, the ``limit-cycle''. It explains the Efimov
and Thomas effects, and universal correlations e.g.~between particle-dimer
scattering length and trimer binding energy (the Phillips line).  In general,
it appears whenever the kernel of the integral equation not compact,
i.e.~$\Im[s]\not=0$ and $|\Re[s]|<\Re[l+1]$.
We finally note that the power-counting requires a new, independent 3BF with
$2l$ derivatives to enter at \NXLO{2l} and provides high-accuracy phase-shifts
in atom-dimer and nucleon-deuteron scattering, and loss rates close to
Feshbach resonances in Bose-Einstein condensates, see
e.g.~\cite{improve3body,bedaque_bira_review,Braaten:2004rn} for details.

Demotion might seem an academic dis-advantage -- to include some higher-order
corrections which are not accompanied by new divergences does not improve the
accuracy of the calculation; one only appears to have worked harder than
necessary. However, demotion is pivotal when one wants to predict the
experimental precision necessary to dis-entangle 3BFs in observables, and here
the error-estimate of EFTs is crucial.
In ${}^4\mathrm{He}$-atom-dimer scattering, where $Q\approx\frac{1}{100}$,
only high-precision experiments can however reveal contributions from 3BFs
beyond the one found in the $\mathrm{S}$-wave.

On the other hand, $Q\approx\frac{1}{3}$ in EFT(${\pi\hskip-0.55em /}$)\xspace of Nuclear Physics.
Now, the demotion or promotion of 3BFs makes all the difference whether an
experiment to determine 3BF effects is feasible at all.  For example, the
quartet-$\mathrm{S}$ wave scattering-length in the neutron-deuteron system
sets at present the experimental uncertainty in an indirect determination of
the doublet scattering length, which in turn is well-known to be sensitive to
3BFs.  Its value in EFT(${\pi\hskip-0.55em /}$)\xspace at \NXLO{2},
 \begin{equation}
   a(\wave{4}{S}{\frac{3}{2}})=[
   5.09(\mathrm{LO})+1.32(\mathrm{NLO})-0.06(\mathrm{\NXLO{2}})]\;\ensuremath{\mathrm{fm}}=
   [6.35\pm0.02]\;\ensuremath{\mathrm{fm}}\;\;,
 \end{equation}
 converges nicely and agrees very well with experiment, $[6.35\pm0.02]\;\ensuremath{\mathrm{fm}}$.
 The theoretical accuracy by neglecting higher-order terms is here estimated
conservatively by $Q\approx\frac{1}{3
$ of the difference between the NLO- and \NXLO{2}-result.
Table~\ref{tab:ordering} predicts that the first 3BF enters not earlier than
\NXLO{6}. Indeed, if the theoretical uncertainty continues to decreases
steadily as from NLO to \NXLO{2}, an accuracy of
$\pm(\frac{1}{3})^3\times0.02\;\ensuremath{\mathrm{fm}}\lesssim\pm0.001\;\ensuremath{\mathrm{fm}}$ with only 2-nucleon
scattering data as input can be reached in calculations.
This is comparable to the range over which modern high-precision
potential-model calculations differ: $[6.344\dots6.347]\;\ensuremath{\mathrm{fm}}$.  If the 3BF
would occur at \NXLO{4} as simplistically expected, the error by 3BFs would be
$(\frac{1}{3})^1\times0.02\;\ensuremath{\mathrm{fm}}\approx0.007\;\ensuremath{\mathrm{fm}}$, considerably larger than
the spread in the potential-model predictions.  Differential cross-sections
and partial-waves are also in excellent agreement with much more elaborate
state-of-the-art potential model calculations at energies up to $15\;\ensuremath{\mathrm{MeV}}$,
see e.g.~\cite{improve3body}.

The cross-section of triton radiative capture $nd \to t\gamma$ at thermal
energies provides another example~\cite{withSadeghi}. Nuclear Models give a
spread of $[0.49\dots0.66]\;\mathrm{mb}$, depending on the 2-nucleon
potential, and how the $\Delta(1232)$ as first nucleonic excitation is
included. On the other hand, a process at $0.0253$ eV [\emph{sic}] incident
neutron energy and less than $7\;\ensuremath{\mathrm{MeV}}$ photon energy should be insensitive to
details of the deuteron wave-function and of a resonance with an excitation
energy of $300\;\ensuremath{\mathrm{MeV}}$. Indeed, the power-counting of 3BFs applies equally with
external currents, only that the higher-order interaction in
Fig.~\ref{fig:higherorders} includes now also the momentum- or energy-transfer
from the external source as additional low-energy scales. As no new 3BFs are
needed up to \NXLO{2} to render cut-off independent results, the result is
completely determined by simple 2-body observables as
\begin{equation}
   \sigma_\mathrm{tot}=[
   0.485(\mathrm{LO})+0.011(\mathrm{NLO})+0.007(\text{\NXLO{2}})
   ]\;\mathrm{mb}=
   [0.503\pm0.003]\;\mathrm{mb}\;\;,
\end{equation}
which converges and compares well with the measured value,
$[0.509\pm0.015]\;\mathrm{mb}$.
The cross-section relevant for big-bang nucleo-synthesis
($E_n\approx0.020\dots0.4\;\mathrm{MeV}$) is also in excellent agreement with
data~\cite{Sadeghi:2004es}.

\section{Conclusions}

With these findings, the EFT of 3-body systems with only contact interactions
is a self-consistent, systematic field theory which contains the minimal
number of interactions at each order to render the theory renormalisable. Each
3-body counter-term gives rise to one subtraction-constant which is fixed by a
3-body datum.  Table~\ref{tab:ordering} sorts the 3BFs by their strengthes,
their symmetries and the channels in which they contribute at the necessary
level of accuracy.  Amongst the host of applications in Nuclear Physics are
triton and ${}^3$He properties, reactions in big-bang nucleo-synthesis,
neutrino astro-physics, the famed nuclear $A_y$-problem, and the experimental
determination of fundamental neutron properties.

The method presented here is applicable to any EFT in which an infinite number
of diagram needs to be summed at LO, e.g.~because of shallow bound-states. One
example is Chiral EFT, the EFT of pion-nucleon interactions. Only those local
$N$-body forces are added at each order which are necessary as counter-terms
to cancel divergences at short distances.  This mandates a careful look at the
ultraviolet-behaviour of the leading-order, non-perturbative scattering
amplitude. It leads at each order and to the prescribed level of accuracy to
a cut-off independent theory with the smallest number of experimental
input-parameters. The power-counting is thus not constructed by educated
guesswork but by rigorous investigations of the renormalisation-group
properties of couplings and observables using the methodology of EFT.

This is two coats each of Solar Flare and Salsa Pop, both with no topcoat. In real life there is a slight difference initially but as it dries that difference becomes less and less obvious. I don't know about you but I can't see much of a difference between these two here. Both are gorgeous bright oranges with great formula.
In my opinion, you don't need both. They are similar enough for me to consider them dupes. What do you think? Do you have one or both of these? Do you agree with me?
If you have any polishes you would like to see compared please let me know. I really enjoy doing these and I have a few more requests coming up soon.


The Minganie regions deffinately merits and deserves a detour. Its vast territory regroups 10 typical and enchanting villages, two indigenous communities, not to mention the majestic Anticosti islands and the fabulous rock formations in the St. Lawrence off the regional coast.
We discover in Minganie picturesque landscapes especially along its 360 km of coastline. The most recognize sites are the Archipelago National Par Mingan Reserves and the Anticosti National Park, two jewels of the Canadian and Quebec natural heritage.
In addition to the diversified nature and wildlife, Minganie is rich in natural resources. Mining, hydropower, fishing and gathering of forest products which are the engines of the regional economy.
By visiting Minganie you'll be able to discover its generous nature!

How to connect to my local site from another PC on my local network ?
Once we have set-up a Virtual Host, my problem is that I can't reach the corresponding local site from another PC on the local network (precisely, i would like to connect to my local site from a smartphone connected to the local network).
So, I have a local site on /var/www/html/asite/ with a index.php inside.
I have created a virtual host "asite.com" for this site and when i am on the PC, I can get to this site, either by typing "asite.com" or "localhost/asite".
By any chance, would you have an idea to solve this problem ?

Wellington.scoop.co.nz » Where's the seat?
On a blue-sky Sunday, tailor-made for a dog walk, we went up Harriet Street into Grant Road and headed up the Tinakori Hill. Looking back along the grass reserve next to Grant Road, my owner was livid at the Council for its inattention.
We were looking forward to sitting down on a seat above Elephant Rock but the seat that has been there for years was nowhere to be seen. Somebody had snaffled it. Either it's been stolen or the Council has taken it away for renovation but there is no sign to tell us when it will be back.
Onwards and upwards we went to be met with a proliferation of signs saying 'dogs must be on leads' and 'pick up your dog poo'. Okay we got the message the first time! It's a bit much to have signs every 20 metres and some have been scrawled over by protesting humans.
How about spending more on track and park maintenance and less on unnecessary and unsightly signing? Woof, woof we say to that! Oh and please put a seat back above Elephant Rock for my contemplative owner.
Great – a new seat is back, so my owner can sit down and recover his breath after ascending half way up Tinakori Hill. Being the contrary soul he is, he still grumbled about his wet bottom … "they should have sloped the seat inwards and left a wider gap to drain the water off". Hmmmm, unlike us Labradors, some humans are never happy with their lot.
I couldn't agree more with Harriet this extremely perceptive dog.Someone needs to put an economic value on properly maintained walking trails as opposed to poorly maintained ones – health-mental and physical, productivity &etc.
I am happy for my taxes to go to stewardship of the great green domain,a gift to NZ.
Dear Harriett. I completely agree that signs (not signage) have an excessive budget in our risk-averse world.
Of course I too am desperately keen to see the experts planting to replace the pines and smother the brambles.
As for the Elephant Rock seat I'm trusting it will be an old-fashioned "park bench" not a modern "bench" without a proper back or arms designed to prevent comfort. I know you hate seeing them in discomfort and moving along when you need a rest on your walks.
Good to see you again Harriet and yes I want to see my rates spent on maintaining what we have got.
I see no point in keeping dog poo off the track if the track itself isn't maintained.
I'm sure Harriet and co will be careful to clean up respectfully, I ask that the council follow suit.
There is still no seat.
We have been up Tinakori Hill for our regular walk this morning (11 April ) and still NO SEAT.
I'm so disappointed that the Council will put a lot of money into an Events Centre but not maintain our walkways.
I was walking In Courtenay Place yesterday and noticed the Council can't even be bothered changing the clock to reflect the end of daylight saving.
Thank you Council. It is nice to see the seat is back.
V G to see it's a Park Bench with a back. Not one of the modern benches without backs which are usually unsustainable & unaffordable heavy designs. WCC needs to follow the centuries of traditional designs rather than employ designers driven by a passion to be different to satisfy their vanities. We can't afford their egos.

Tesla Beats the Street: First Peek at Fourth-Quarter Results
Strong sales propel fourth-quarter results.
By James Temple Feb 19, 2014, 1:27pm EST
Share All sharing options for: Tesla Beats the Street: First Peek at Fourth-Quarter Results
Tesla on Wednesday reported fourth-quarter profit and revenue that beat Wall Street expectations on strong sales, sending shares soaring 14 percent in after-hours trading.
Excluding one-time items, the Palo Alto, Calif., luxury electric automaker posted net income of $46 million, or 33 cents per share, on revenue of $761 million.
Analysts were looking for earnings of 21 cents per share on $677 million in revenue, according to the average estimate from the Thomson Financial Network as of earlier Wednesday (those numbers climbed upward in the last few days).
On a GAAP basis, Tesla lost $16 million, or 13 cents per share, on revenue of $615 million.
Tesla pre-announced in January that it sold and delivered a record high 6,900 vehicles, exceeding earlier guidance by 20 percent. That final number landed at 6,892, Tesla said.
Company executives will hop on an investor conference call at 2:30 pm PT right here. As we wrote yesterday, analysts will be especially interested in anything Tesla has to say about plans for its gigantic battery plant or a second production line for the popular Model S sedans.
For the full year, the company said it expects to deliver 35,000 Model S sedans, a 55 percent leap over last year, as it pushes weekly production up to 1,000 cars. As of Tuesday, analysts at Robert W. Baird & Co. were only looking for 30,000 to 32,000 vehicles this year, above earlier estimates of 29,000.
Tesla said that battery supply will continue to constrain production during the first half. But it expects significant improvement during the latter end of the year. That raises the question of whether the company expects its "giga factory" to come online during that time.
Expenses will climb "significantly" this year, Tesla added.
"We plan to expand production capacity for Model S and Model X (the forthcoming sport utility vehicle), invest in our stores, service and Supercharger infrastructure, complete the development of Model X and start early design work on our third generation car," the company said.
At the end of its letter to shareholders, the company said: "Very shortly, we will be ready to share more information about the Tesla Gigafactory. This will allow us to achieve a major reduction in the cost of our battery packs and accelerate the pace of battery innovation. Working in partnership with our suppliers, we plan to integrate precursor material, cell, module and pack production into one facility. With this facility, we feel highly confident of being able to create a compelling and affordable electric car in approximately three years."

Mecha Anime 'The King of Braves GaoGaiGar' Is Getting A Blu-Ray Release
The final installment of the "Braves" mecha anime franchise 'The King of Braves GaoGaiGar' is getting a Blu-ray release in the United States through Discotek Media.
It will be released on January 31st, 2023, and will feature all forty-nine episodes of the show in high definition plus the English dubbed version of the first twenty-five. It is currently available for pre-order on the Right Stuf Anime website.
You can watch the opening theme below:
Wikipedia described the synopsis as follows,
"On a winter night, a mysterious mechanical lion came flying in front of a married couple, carrying a mysterious baby with it. As they took the baby in, the lion left them in confusion. About 7 years later, the space shuttle Spirits, in which high school astronaut Guy Shishioh is a passenger, collides with an unknown object bound to Earth. Despite being mortally wounded, he is rescued by the same mysterious lion and returns to Earth. In his hand, he holds a mysterious green jewel as Leo Shishioh uses it to revive Gai into a cyborg.
Two years later in 2005, the mysterious baby under the care of the Amami couple, now named Mamoru, is living his life normally. This is until the mysterious group known as Zonders begins their invasion of Earth. As a response, the Earth Defense Brigade Gutsy Geoid Guard, or GGG, was organized to fight against the Zonders. In an attack by the Zonders, the mysterious boy encountered Guy, who is now a member of GGG. Equipped with the green jewel, known as G-Stone, he becomes the pilot of the lion robot that saved him. Named Galeon, he fuses with it alongside 3 assist vehicles created by GGG to become the giant robot GaoGaiGar. After the battle against one of the Zonders, GGG discovered that Mamoru can purify people who became Zonders and wondered about his origins and how it was linked to the appearance of the Zonders."
The sci-fi anime was the eighth installment of the "Braves" franchise. It was directed by Yoshitomo Yonetani and was produced by Sunrise.

State v. Fuentes
Supreme Court of Nebraska
State of Nebraska, appellee,
Timothy L. Fuentes, appellant.
1. Postconviction: Evidence: Appeal and Error. In an evidentiary hearing on a motion for postconviction relief, the trial judge, as the trier of fact, resolves conflicts in the evidence and questions of fact. An appellate court upholds the trial court's factual findings unless they are clearly erroneous.
2. Effectiveness of Counsel. A claim that defense counsel provided ineffective assistance presents a mixed question of law and fact.
3. Effectiveness of Counsel: Appeal and Error. When reviewing a claim of ineffective assistance of counsel, an appellate court reviews the factual findings of the lower court for clear error. With regard to questions of counsel's performance or prejudice to the defendant as part of the two-pronged test articulated in Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668, 104 S.Ct. 2052, 80 L.Ed.2d 674 (1984), an appellate court reviews such legal determinations independently of the lower court's conclusion.
4. Constitutional Law: Due Process: Trial: Judges. The right to an impartial judge is guaranteed under the Due Process Clauses of the U.S. and Nebraska Constitutions, the parameters of which are coextensive.
5. Constitutional Law: Trial: Judges: Proof. In order to show a constitutional violation of the right to an impartial judge, a defendant must prove actual bias or structural error.
6. Trial: Judges: Words and Phrases. Structural error occurs when the defendant shows that a judge has such a strong personal or financial interest in the outcome of the trial that he or she was unable to hold the proper balance between the State and the accused.
7. Postconviction: Trial: Presumptions: Appeal and Error. Although structural error requires automatic dismissal if brought on direct appeal, [302 Neb. 920] not all structural error will result in a presumption of prejudice when raised in a motion for postconviction relief.
8. Judges: Recusal. Instances in which the judge's impartiality might reasonably be questioned specifically include where the judge has a personal bias or prejudice concerning a party or a party's lawyer.
9. Judges: Recusal: Presumptions. A defendant seeking to disqualify a judge on the basis of bias or prejudice bears the heavy burden of overcoming the presumption of judicial impartiality.
10. Constitutional Law: Identification Procedures: Due Process. An identification procedure is constitutionally invalid only when it is so unnecessarily suggestive and conducive to an irreparably mistaken identification that a defendant is denied due process of law.
11. Identification Procedures. Whether identification procedures were unduly suggestive and conducive to a substantial likelihood of irreparable mistaken identification is to be determined by a consideration of the totality of the circumstances surrounding the procedures.
12.___. The factors to be considered in determining whether identification procedures were unduly suggestive and conducive to a substantial likelihood of irreparable mistaken identification are the opportunity of the witness to view the criminal at the time of the crime, the witness' degree of attention, the accuracy of the witness' prior description of the criminal, the level of certainty demonstrated by the witness, and the length of time between the crime and the identification.
Appeal from the District Court for Scotts Bluff County: Andrea D. Miller, Judge.
Leonard G. Tabor for appellant.
Douglas J. Peterson, Attorney General, Erin E. Tangeman, Derek Bral, Senior Certified Law Student, and, on brief, Sarah E. Marfisi for appellant.
Heavican, C.J., Cassel, Stacy, Funke, and Papik, JJ.
HEAVICAN, C.J.
Timothy L. Fuentes was convicted of third degree sexual assault of a child, second offense, and sentenced to 50 to 50 years' imprisonment. His conviction and sentence were [302 Neb. 921] affirmed on direct appeal. Fuentes filed a motion seeking postconviction relief. Following an evidentiary hearing, the district court denied Fuentes' motion. He appeals. We affirm.
FACTUAL BACKGROUND
The facts leading to Fuentes' conviction show that on August 21, 2012, Fuentes visited the upstairs apartment of a converted house. The victim, Analicia B., was outside of the house at the time of Fuentes' visit. Analicia's family lived in the basement apartment of the same house. Analicia testified that Fuentes arrived at the home while her stepfather, Gabriel T, had been outside. Analicia further testified that Fuentes went into the upstairs apartment and that Gabriel went into the basement apartment, leaving Analicia and her sister outside. Fuentes left the upstairs apartment approximately 5 minutes later, while Gabriel was still in the basement apartment. Analicia testified that as he left, Fuentes "slid his finger" of his right hand up and then sideways on Analicia's genital area over her clothing.
Analicia immediately reported the touching to her parents, and law enforcement was contacted. A few days later, Analicia identified Fuentes out of a photographic array (photo array) that included photographs of Fuentes and five other individuals.
Fuentes was charged with third degree sexual assault of a child. A first jury trial ended in a mistrial because of a deadlocked jury; Fuentes was convicted following the second trial. His conviction and sentence were affirmed on direct appeal in a memorandum opinion filed by the Nebraska Court of Appeals on February 26, 2014, in case No. A-13-340.
Fuentes subsequently filed a pro se motion seeking post-conviction relief. Fuentes was represented by an attorney from the Scotts Bluff County public defender's office at trial and on direct appeal, and he is represented by appointed counsel in this appeal. Fuentes asserts that trial counsel was ineffective [302 Neb. 922] at trial and on appeal by failing to (1) argue ineffective assistance of counsel on direct appeal; (2) file a motion to suppress statements; (3) file a motion to recuse the trial judge; (4) file a motion in limine; (5) file a motion to suppress the photo array; (6) investigate and depose Analicia, an unknown adult, and Gabriel; (7) object to jury instructions Nos. 1 and 5; (8) object to exhibit 5; (9) object to the testimony of DelMaria B., Analicia's mother; and (10) file a motion to dismiss at the conclusion of the State's evidence.
Because the trial judge had retired, a new district court judge was appointed. Following an evidentiary hearing, the district court denied Fuentes' ...

Biden's $2 trillion climate plan: create millions of jobs, reverse climate change
News Politics Elections
Joe Biden announced his $2 trillion updated climate plan as part of his new "Build Back Better" economic agenda. It emphasizes creating new jobs with innovative input from national labs and universities, relying on American manufacturing and using small businesses to supply materials.
"The current coronavirus crisis destroyed millions of American jobs, including hundreds of thousands in clean energy," the plan reads. "It has exacerbated historic environmental injustices. And all this comes at a moment when the science tells us there is no time for delay on climate change." Biden exhorts the U.S. to chart "an irreversible path" to net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.
Related: Ocasio-Cortez and Kerry co-chair climate change task force
The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee's plan includes investing in infrastructure, the auto industry, transit, the power sector, buildings, housing, innovation, agriculture, conservation and environmental justice. He promises to create millions of union jobs to repair roads, bridges and electricity grids and to install universal broadband. Every American city with more than 100,000 residents would have zero-emissions public transportation, creating more union jobs. The plan would fund innovation in the areas of "clean energy technologies, including battery storage, negative emissions technologies, the next generation of building materials, renewable hydrogen, and advanced nuclear."
Biden recognized environmental justice as a key consideration in his climate plan. He aims to include BIPOC in these millions of promised union jobs and to right the wrongs in communities that suffer from unfair shares of pollution.
"When Donald Trump thinks about climate change, the only word he can muster is 'hoax,'" Biden said in his speech announcing the plan. "When I think about climate change, the word I think of is 'jobs' — good-paying union jobs that'll put Americans to work."

GENEVA, Switzerland, October 7, 2013/African Press Organization (APO)/ -- The Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) welcomed new members Bhutan and Somalia at the opening of its 129th Assembly in Geneva today whilst Egypt must wait to have a parliament again before it can rejoin the Organization. Somalia's re-affiliation to IPU was approved after the establishment of its parliament, the People's House, in August 2012 as part of the political transition process following two decades of civil war and unrest in the country.
"We welcome the Somali Parliament to the IPU fold in a decision that acknowledges the progress Somalia has made in putting in place a functioning democracy. It also reflects IPU's long history in helping post-conflict countries to rebuild and to establish permanent democratic institutions," said IPU President Abdelwahad Radi.
This is the fourth time Somalia is an IPU member since it first joined in 1963. Its departure from the Organization in 2009 was due to the political instability that has run throughout the country's recent history.
Bhutan, however, joins IPU for the first time. First established in 2008 and renewed through elections in July 2013, its National Assembly, the Tshogdu, has 47 directly elected members of which three are women.
"We look forward to being part of the global democratic forum and we are confident that our membership will go a long way in building strong and sustained democratic culture and values in our polity," said Jigme Zangpo, Speaker of Bhutan's National Assembly.
Recent developments in Egypt which saw the dissolution of its parliament on 3 July 2013 means the country no longer has an institution that can exercise its membership within the Organization. To be a member of IPU, there must be a functioning parliament.
In making the decision, its Governing Council expressed its full support of the Egyptian people and their desire for democracy. The Organization would be monitoring closely the situation and offered to continue mobilizing and providing support in the country's efforts to build a strong and democratic parliament.
IPU looked forward to welcoming Egypt back to IPU once elections for a new parliament had taken place.
The admission of the two countries brings to 163 the number of IPU member parliaments.
