Very cool. I'm curious, how do you think this will compare/contrast/fight with the Data One project – https://www.dataone.org/ – or is this a different beast altogether?
As I started to answer it I realized that my thoughts on the matter were better served by a full post, both because they are a bit lengthy and because I don't actually know much about DataONE and would love to have some of their folks come by, correct my mistaken impressions, and just chat about this stuff in general.
To begin with I should say that I'm still trying to figure this out myself, both because I'm still figuring out exactly what DataONE is going to be, and because EcologicalData is still evolving. I think that both projects goals could be largely defined as "Organizing Ecology's Data," but that's a pretty difficult task, involving a lot of components and a lot of different ways to tackle them. So, my general perspective is that the more folks we have trying the merrier. I suspect there will be plenty of room for multiple related projects, but I'd be just as happy (even happier probably) if we could eventually find a single centralized location for handling all of this. All I want is solution to the challenge.
1. Approach. There are currently two major paradigms for organizing large amounts of information. The first is to figure out a way to tell computers how to do it for us (e.g., Google), the second is to crowdsource it's development and curation (e.g., Wikipedia). DataONE is taking the computer based approach. It's heavy on metadata, ontologies, etc. The goal is to manage the complexities of ecological data by providing the computer with very detailed descriptions of the data that it can understand. We're taking the human approach, keeping things simple and trying to leverage the collective knowledge and effort of the field. As part of this difference in approach I suspect that EcologicalData will be much more interactive and community driven (the goal is for the community to actually run the site, just like Wikipedia) whereas DataONE will tend to be more centralized and hierarchical. I honestly couldn't tell you which will turn out better (perhaps the two approaches will each turn out to be better for different things) but I'm really glad that we're trying both at the same time to figure out what will work and where their relative strengths might be.
2. Actually serving data. DataONE will do this; we won't. This is part of the difference in approach. If the computer can handle all of the thinking with respect to the data then you want it to do that and just spit out what you want. Centralizing the distribution of heterogeneous data is a really complicated task and I'm excited the folks at DataONE are tackling the challenge.
a. One of the other challenges for serving data is that is that you have to get all of the folks who "own" the data to let you provide it. This is one of the reasons I came up with the Data Wiki idea. By serving as a portal it helps circumvent the challenges of getting all of the individual stake holders to agree to participate.
b. We do provide a tool for data acquisition, the EcoData Retriever, that likewise focuses on circumventing the need to negotiate with data providers by allowing each individual investigator to automatically download the data from the source. But, this just sets up each dataset independently, whereas I'm presuming that DataONE will let you just run one big query of all the data (which I'm totally looking forward to by the way) .
3. Focus. The primary motivation behind the Data Wiki goes beyond identifying datasets and really focuses on how you should use them. Having worked with other folks' data for a number of years I can say that the biggest challenging (for me anyway) is actually figuring out all of the details of when and how the dataset should be used. This isn't just a question of reading metadata either. It's a question of integrating thoughts and approaches from across the literature. What I would like to see develop on the Data Wiki pages is the development of concise descriptions for how to go about using these datasets in the best way possible. This is a very difficult task to automate and one where I think a crowdsourced solution is likely the most effective. We haven't done a great job of this yet, but Allen Hurlbert and I have some plans to develop a couple of good examples early in the fall to help demonstrate the idea.
4. We're open for business. Ha ha, eat our dust DataONE. But seriously, we've taken a super simple approach which means we can get up and running quickly. DataONE is doing something much more complicated and so things may take some time to roll out. I'm hoping to get a better idea of what their time lines look like at ESA. I'm sure their tools will be well worth the wait.
5. Oh, and their budget is a little over $2,000,000/year, which is just slightly larger than our budget of around $5,000/year.
So, there is my lengthy and meandering response to Jarrett's question. I'm looking forward to chatting with DataONE folks at ESA to find out more about what they are up to, and I'd love to have them stop by here to chat and clear up my presumably numerous misconceptions.
 Though we do have some ideas for managing something somewhat similar, so stay tuned for EcoData Retriever 2.0. Hopefully coming to an internet near you sometime this spring.
An increasingly large number of folks doing research in ecology and other biological disciplines spend a substantial portion of their time writing computer programs to analyze data and simulate the outcomes of biological models. However, most ecologists have little formal training in software development¹. A recent survey suggests that we are not only; with 96% of scientists reporting that they are mostly self-taught when it comes to writing code. This makes sense because there are only so many hours in the day, and scientists are typically more interested in answering important questions in their field than in sitting through a bachelors degree worth of computer science classes. But, it also means that we spend longer than necessary writing our software, it contains more bugs, and it is less useful to other scientists than it could be².
along with lots of treatment of best practices for writing code that is clear and easy to read both for other people and for yourself a year from now when you sit down and try to figure out exactly what you did³.
The great thing about Software Carpentry is that it skips over all of the theory and detail that you'd get when taking the relevant courses in computer science and gets straight to crux – how to use the available tools most effectively to conduct scientific research. This means that in about 40 hours of lecture and 100-200 hours of practice you can be a much, much, better programmer who rights code more quickly, with fewer bugs, that be easily reused. I think of it as boot camp for scientific software development. You won't be an expert marksman or a black belt in Jiu-Jitsu when you're finished, but you will know how to fire a gun and throw a punch.
I can say without hesitation that taking this course is one of the most important things I've done in terms of tool development in my entire scientific career. If you are going to write more than 100 lines of code per year for your research then you need to either take this course or find someone to offer something equivalent at your university. Watch the lectures, do the exercises, and it will save you time and energy on programming; giving you more of both to dedicate to asking and answering important scientific questions.
¹I took 3 computer science courses in college and I get the impression that that is about 2-3 more courses than most ecologists have taken.
²I don't know of any data on this, but my impression is that over 90% of code written by ecologists is written by a single individual and never read or used by anyone else. This is in part because we have no culture of writing code in such a way that other people can understand what we've done and therefore modify it for their own use.
A while ago there was a bit of discussion around the academic blogosphere recently regarding the importance of developing a digital presence and what the best form of that presence might be. Recently as I've been looking around at academics' websites as part of faculty, postdoc and graduate student searchers going on in my department/lab I've been reminded of the importance of having a digital presence.
It seems pretty clear to me that the web is the primary source of information acquisition for most academics, at least up through the young associate professors. There are no doubt some senior folk who would still rather have a paper copy of a journal sent to them via snail mail and who rarely open their currently installed copy of Internet Explorer 6, but I would be very surprised if most folks who are evaluating graduate student, postdoctoral and faculty job candidates aren't dropping the name of the applicant into their favorite search engines and seeing what comes up. They aren't looking around for dirt like all those scary news stories that were meant to stop college students from posting drunken photos of themselves on social networking sites. They're just procrastinating looking for more information to get a clearer picture of you as a scientist/academic. I also do a quick web search when I meet someone interesting at a conference, get a paper/grant to review with authors I haven't heard of before, read an interesting study by someone I don't know, etc. Many folks who apply to join my lab for graduate school find me through the web.
When folks go looking around for you on the web you want them to find something (not finding anything is the digital equivalent of "being a nobody"), and better yet you want them to find something that puts your best foot forward. But what should this be? Should you Tweet, Buzz, be LinkedIn, start a Blog, have a Wiki*, or maybe just get freaked out by all of this technology and move to the wilderness somewhere and never speak to anyone ever again.
I think the answer here is simple: start with a website. This is the simplest way to present yourself to the outside world and you can (and should) start one as soon as you begin graduate school. The website can be very simple. All you need is a homepage of some kind, a page providing more detailed descriptions of your research interests, a CV, a page listing your publications†, and a page with your contact information. Keep this updated and looking decent and you'll have as good an online presence as most academics.
While putting together your own website might seem a little intimidating it's actually very easy these days. The simplest approach is to use one of the really easy hosted solutions out there. These include things like Google Sites, which are specifically designed to let you make websites; or you can easily turn a hosted blogging system into a website (WordPress.com is often used for this). There are lots of other good options out there (let us know about your favorites in the comments). In addition many universities have some sort of system set up for letting you easily make websites, just ask around. Alternatively, you can get a static .html based template and then add your own content to it. Open Source Web Design is the best place I've found for templates. You can either open up the actual html files or you can use a WYSIWYG editor to replace the sample text with your own content. SeaMonkey is a good option for a WYSIWYG editor. Just ask your IT folks how to get these files up on the web when you're done.
So, setting up a website is easy, but should you be doing other things as well and if so what. At the moment I would say that if you're interested in trying out a new mode of academic communication then you should pick one that sounds like fun to you and give it a try; but this is by no means a necessity as an academic at the moment. If you do try to do some of these other things, then do them in moderation. It's easy to get caught up in the rapid rewards of finishing a blog post or posting a tweet on Twitter, not to mention keeping up with others blogs and tweets, but this stuff can rapidly eat up your day and for the foreseeable future you won't be getting a job based on your awesome stream of 140 character or less insights.
*Yep, that's right, it's a link to the Wikipedia page on Wiki's.
†And links to copies of them if you are comfortable flaunting the absurd copyright/licensing policies of many of the academic publishers (or if you only published in open access journals).
I have been very encouraged of late to see more and more ecologists embracing the potential of the web for communication and interaction. I've recently blogrolled some graduate student blogs and in the last few weeks I've come across American Naturalist's trial run of a forum system, Ecological Monographs' blog, and a blog soliciting feedback on a new initiative to digitize existing biological collections.
A few months ago Mike Kaspari over at Getting Things Done in Academia emailed me to ask "how do you use your Lab Wiki? Has it been worth it?". I sent back much of what is included below and Mike asked if he could use some of my thoughts for a post on wikis. I of course said yes, but since GTDA has been silent for quite a while now I figured I'd go ahead and post on it myself.
First, for those of you whose only exposure to wikis is wikipedia, a wiki is basically just a group of web pages that can be edited online (i.e., inside a browser). These pages might be editable by anyone (like wikipedia) or only by users with permission. They also might be viewable by anyone, or only by a small set of people. For a lab wiki I'd recommend that most of the wiki only be accessible and editable by members of the lab with some areas accessible by specific external collaborators.
So, why have a lab wiki?
1. Collaboration – The wiki provides a central place for idea development, conversation, posting of results and interpretation, etc. It is particularly valuable for remote collaboration in that it switches the paradigm from one or a few people taking the lead and dealing with keeping everyone else informed to a system where it is the participants responsibility to keep an eye on what is going on and everyone decides their own level of involvement.
2. Idea generation, motivation and storage – Have you ever had a cool idea but didn't have time to think about it at the moment. I jot down 2 sentences on the research ideas page of my wiki. The idea of this page is to put interesting ideas out in front of larger audiences and see if anyone is interesting in working on them. This has already lead progress being made on one project that I wouldn't have gotten around to otherwise. At the very least the idea is there for later if I want to go back to it myself.
3. Progress in small steps – If I have an idea about something, even a small one, I just login and jot it down on that projects page. If I have 20 minutes of spare time I can do one simple analysis, or learn how to do a single step in an statistical or computational problem and post the answer. A small step might allow one of my collaborators to make their next step on a project, or seeing progress may motivate them to do something themselves. In general I find that this medium encourages and allows progress to be accomplished with more smaller steps, thus lowering the activation energy for some projects.
4. Information aggregation – When someone in the lab finds a useful tool, good advice on some academic task (e.g., writing papers), etc. this information can be stored on the wiki. This sort of thing can be done via email or via blog, but I think that permanent archiving in well structured pages combined with the inherently improved potential for participation by members of the lab makes the wiki superior for this task. For example, a third year student who is starting to write papers in 2012 can just go to the wiki page on advice for writing and get going. If I'd just emailed the relevent link to my current students then it won't reach future students and it won't even reach many current students at a time when it's useful to them.
5. Lab openness – Most of the pages on our wiki are open to anyone in the lab (though we do have the ability to restrict access and do for outside guests and in a few other circumstances). My hope is that this will help with a variety of minor issues I've observed over the years (not in my labs, but in labs I've been a member of and/or known people in) including territorial disputes resulting from a lack of communication and the classic graduate student mistake of thinking that because it took your advisor three weeks to read your paper that it's because they're at home playing Xbox all evening. I don't know if this will work but my feeling is that openness is in general a good solution to a lot of problems and the wiki makes such openness happen almost by default and provides a historical record for cases where disputes still occur.
So, that's my plug for having a lab wiki. There are a variety of ways to setup a wiki, with the easiest being to use one of several online hosts. We use PBwiki, which I can't say enough great things about, but there are a variety of options. Many of these wiki sites have full WYSIWYG editors so editing a page is just as easy as editing a Word document. So, go find a wiki provider, set up a free wiki, and try it out. Maybe you'll find it as essential a tool for a modern academic lab as we do.

\section{Introduction}
Among the many relevant questions still open in Quantum Chromodynamics a very
interesting one is how to describe scattering amplitudes in the so--called
Regge limit. In Regge asymptotic the center--of--mass energy, $s$, is much
larger than all other Mandelstam invariants and mass scales present in the
process under investigation. It is possible to perturbatively keep track of
the different contributions to the amplitude if some hard scale is present so
that the strong coupling remains small. It is then needed to resum
logarithmically enhanced contributions of the form
$\left(\alpha_s \ln{s}\right)^n$ to all orders. This is achieved using the
leading--logarithmic (LL) Balistky--Fadin--Kuraev--Lipatov (BFKL) evolution
equation~\cite{FKL}.

The BFKL approach predicts a power--like rise in $s$ of total cross sections.
A lot of attention has been given to the search for BFKL effects in deep
inelastic scattering (DIS) due to the rapid growth of structure functions at
small values of Bjorken $x$. However, the golden process where the resummation
of $\ln{s}$ is most important is the total cross section of two
photons with large and similar virtualities. In this configuration the small
$x$ resummation, which includes ordering in rapidity and not in transverse
scales, should be the dominant contribution to the scattering. This is not
necessarily the case in DIS where ordering in $k_t$ is important given that
parton evolution takes place between an object with large transverse size, the
proton, and a small highly virtual photon.

Observables where BFKL effects should prevail then require of enough
energy to build up the parton evolution, and the presence of two large and
similar
transverse scales. In this work an example of this kind is investigated in
detail by analytic means: the inclusive hadroproduction of two jets with
large and similar transverse momenta  and a big relative separation in
rapidity, the so--called Mueller--Navelet jets. When Y, the distance in
rapidity between the most forward and backward jets, is not large a fixed
order perturbative analysis should be enough to describe the cross section but
when it increases a BFKL resummation of $\left(\alpha_s {\rm Y}\right)^n$
terms is needed.

Mueller--Navelet jets were first proposed in Ref.~\cite{Mueller:1986ey} as
a clean
configuration to look for BFKL effects at hadron colliders. A typical
power--like rise for the partonic cross section was predicted in agreement
with the value of the asymptotic LL hard Pomeron intercept. However, at
hadronic level, forward and backward jets are produced in a region of fast
falling of the parton distributions, reducing the rise of the cross section.
A way to make small $x$ resummation
effects more explicit is to look into the azimuthal angle
decorrelation of the pair of jets. The relevant subprocess  is
parton + parton $\rightarrow$ jet + jet + any number of soft emissions
inside the rapidity interval
separating the two jets. BFKL enhances soft real emission as Y
increases reducing in this way the amount of angular correlation originally
present in the back--to--back in transverse plane Born configuration. The LL
prediction for this azimuthal dependence was first investigated in
Ref.~\cite{LLResults}.

The results at LL are known to overestimate the rate of decorrelation and
to lie quite far from the experimental
data~\cite{Tevatron} as obtained from the Tevatron and subleading higher
order effects have been
called for an explanation of this discrepancy. Running coupling effects and
kinematic constraints have been considered in Ref.~\cite{MNConstraints}.
In the present work
the main target is to analytically understand how to include the
$\alpha_s \left(\alpha_s {\rm Y}\right)^n$
next--to--leading logarithmic (NLL) corrections to the BFKL kernel~\cite{FLCC}.
The effects of this
kernel were numerically investigated using an
implementation~\cite{Andersen:2003wy} of the
NLL iterative solution proposed in Ref.~\cite{Andersen:2003an}
(different reviews can be found in~\cite{reviews}). It is left for
future analysis the
inclusion of the next--to--leading order (NLO) jet vertex~\cite{impactfactors}, the investigation of
more convergent versions of the kernel~\cite{improvedkernel} and a
study of parton
distributions effects in order to make reliable phenomenological predictions at a hadron collider.
Mueller--Navelet jets should be an important test of our understanding of
small $x$ resummation to be performed at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN.

After this brief Introduction, in Section 2 the normalization for the gluon
Green's function is indicated together with the formulae for the
partonic cross section. Then the operator formalism suggested by Ivanov and Papa
in Ref.~\cite{Ivanov:2005gn} is
extended to introduce angular dependences. The form of the NLL kernel for
all conformal spins calculated by Kotikov and Lipatov in
Ref.~\cite{Kotikov:2000pm}
is also discussed.
Towards the end of the section a compact expression for the angular
differential cross section
 which includes the NLL contributions is derived. In Section 3 the numerical
study of the previous formul{\ae} is discussed in detail.
Finally, several Conclusions are drawn and different lines for future research
highlighted.

\section{Calculation of the dijet partonic cross section}

As indicated in the Introduction, in this analysis the object of interest is
the partonic cross
section parton + parton $\rightarrow$ jet + jet + soft emission, with the two jets having transverse momenta $\vec{q}_1$ and $\vec{q}_2$ and being produced
at a large relative rapidity separation Y. This can be related to the external
hadrons by its approximate relation to the longitudinal momentum fractions
 carried by the jets, {\it i.e.}, ${\rm Y} \sim \ln{x_1 x_2 s/\sqrt{q_1^2 q_2^2}}$, and a convolution with parton distribution functions whose analysis is left for a future work. In the present framework the resummed differential partonic cross section for the particular case of gluon--gluon scattering is
\begin{eqnarray}
\frac{d {\hat \sigma}}{d^2\vec{q}_1 d^2\vec{q}_2} &=& \frac{\pi^2 {\bar \alpha}_s^2}{2}
\frac{f \left(\vec{q}_1,\vec{q}_2,{\rm Y}\right)}{q_1^2 q_2^2},
\end{eqnarray}
with the usual notation ${\bar \alpha}_s = \alpha_s N_c/\pi$. One can now introduce the Mellin
transform of the BFKL gluon Green's function in rapidity space:
\begin{eqnarray}
f \left(\vec{q}_1,\vec{q}_2,{\rm Y}\right) &=& \int \frac{d\omega}{2 \pi i} e^{\omega {\rm Y}} f_\omega \left(\vec{q}_1,\vec{q}_2\right).
\end{eqnarray}
The normalization for the BFKL integral equation, including for simplicity only the LL terms,
then reads
\begin{eqnarray}
\omega f_\omega \left(\vec{q}_1,\vec{q}_2\right) &=&
\delta^{(2)} \left(\vec{q}_1-\vec{q}_2\right) \nonumber\\
&+&{\bar \alpha}_s \int\frac{d^2 \vec{k}}{\pi \left(\vec{q}_1-\vec{k}\right)^2}
\left(f_\omega \left(\vec{k},\vec{q}_2\right)-\frac{q_1^2 f_\omega \left(\vec{q}_1,\vec{q}_2\right)}{\vec{k}^2+\left(\vec{q}_1-\vec{k}\right)^2}\right).
\label{LLbfkl}
\end{eqnarray}
As it is well known, including the angular dependence on the transverse plane
of $\vec{q}_1$ and $\vec{q}_2$, the LL solution to Eq.~(\ref{LLbfkl}) can
be written as
\begin{eqnarray}
f_\omega \left(\vec{q}_1,\vec{q}_2\right) &=& \frac{1}{2 \pi^2} \sum_{n = -\infty}^\infty
\int_{-\infty}^\infty d \nu \,{\left(q_1^2\right)}^{-i \nu -\frac{1}{2}} {\left(q_2^2\right)}^{i \nu -\frac{1}{2}} \frac{e^{i n \left(\theta_1-\theta_2\right)}}{\omega - {\bar \alpha}_s \chi_0 \left(\left|n\right|,\nu\right)}
\end{eqnarray}
where the eigenvalue of the LL kernel,
\begin{eqnarray}
\chi_0 \left(n,\nu\right) &=& 2 \psi \left(1\right) - \psi \left(\frac{1}{2}+ i \nu + \frac{n}{2}\right) - \psi\left(\frac{1}{2}- i \nu +\frac{n}{2}\right),
\end{eqnarray}
is expressed in terms of the logarithmic derivative of the Euler Gamma
function. As it stands the $n$ variable corresponds to a Fourier transform
in the angular sector. A more sophisticated interpretation arises if
Eq.~(\ref{LLbfkl}) is considered for non--zero momentum transfer
(see, {\it e.g.},~\cite{nf-bfkl}). In this case, if a representation in the
complex plane for the transverse momenta of the form $\vec{q} = q_x + i q_y$
is introduced, it can be shown how the BFKL equation corresponds to a
Schr{\"o}dinger--like equation with a holomorphically separable Hamiltonian
where $- i \,{\rm Y}$ is the time variable. Both the holomorphic and
antiholomorphic sectors in the
Hamiltonian are invariant under spin zero M{\"o}bius transformations with
eigenfunctions carrying a conformal weight of the form
$\gamma = \frac{1}{2} + i \nu + \frac{n}{2} $. In the principal series of the
unitary representation $\nu$ is real and $\left|n\right|$ the integer
conformal spin~\cite{Lipatov:1985uk}.

The partonic cross section is obtained by integration over the
phase space of the two emitted gluons together with some general jet vertices, {\it i.e.}
\begin{eqnarray}
{\hat \sigma} \left(\alpha_s, {\rm Y},p^2_{1,2}\right) &=&
\int d^2{\vec{q}_1} \int d^2{\vec{q}_2} \,
\Phi_{\rm jet_1}\left(\vec{q}_1,p_1^2\right)
\,\Phi_{\rm jet_2}\left(\vec{q}_2,p_2^2\right)\frac{d {\hat \sigma}}{d^2\vec{q}_1 d^2\vec{q}_2}.
\end{eqnarray}
In the perturbative expansion of these jet vertices,
$\Phi_{\rm jet_i} = \Phi_{\rm jet_i}^{(0)}+ {\bar \alpha}_s \Phi_{\rm jet_i}^{(1)} + \dots$, only leading--order terms are kept:
\begin{eqnarray}
\Phi_{\rm jet_i}^{(0)} \left(\vec{q},p_i^2\right)&=& \theta \left(q^2-p_i^2\right),
\end{eqnarray}
where $p_i^2$ corresponds to a resolution scale for the transverse momentum of
the gluon jet. In this way a full NLO accuracy is not
achieved but it is possible to pin down those effects stemming
from  the gluon Green's function. To extend this analysis it would be needed to calculate the
Mellin transform of the NLO jet vertices in Ref.~\cite{impactfactors} where
the definition of a jet is much more involved than
here. Therefore one can proceed and write
\begin{eqnarray}
{\hat \sigma} \left(\alpha_s, {\rm Y},p_{1,2}^2\right) =
\frac{\pi^2 {\bar \alpha}_s^2}{2} \int d^2{\vec{q}_1} \int d^2{\vec{q}_2} \,
\frac{\Phi_{\rm jet_1}^{(0)}\left(\vec{q}_1,p_1^2\right)}{q_1^2}
\,\frac{\Phi_{\rm jet_2}^{(0)}\left(\vec{q}_2,p_2^2\right)}{q_2^2}
f \left(\vec{q}_1,\vec{q}_2,{\rm Y}\right).
\end{eqnarray}
At this stage it is very convenient to recall the work of Ref.~\cite{Ivanov:2005gn} and to
introduce the following transverse momenta operator representation:
\begin{eqnarray}
{\hat q} \left|\vec{q}_i\right> &=& \vec{q}_i \left|\vec{q}_i\right>
\end{eqnarray}
with the normalization
\begin{eqnarray}
\left<\vec{q}_1\right|{\hat 1}\left|\vec{q}_2\right> &=& \delta^{(2)} \left(\vec{q}_1-\vec{q}_2\right).
\end{eqnarray}
In this notation the BFKL equation simply reads
\begin{eqnarray}
\left(\omega - {\hat K}\right) {\hat f}_\omega &=& {\hat 1}
\end{eqnarray}
where the kernel has the  expansion
\begin{eqnarray}
{\hat K} &=& {\bar \alpha}_s {\hat K}_0 + {\bar \alpha}_s^2 {\hat K}_1 + \dots
\end{eqnarray}
To NLO accuracy this implies that the solution can be written as
\begin{eqnarray}
{\hat f}_\omega = \left(\omega - {\bar \alpha}_s {\hat K}_0\right)^{-1}
+ {\bar \alpha}_s^2 \left(\omega - {\bar \alpha}_s {\hat K}_0\right)^{-1}
{\hat K}_1 \left(\omega - {\bar \alpha}_s {\hat K}_0\right)^{-1} +
{\cal O}\left({\bar \alpha}_s^3\right).
\label{opGGF}
\end{eqnarray}
The next step is to define a basis on which to express the cross section.
To generalize
 the study in Ref.~\cite{Ivanov:2005gn} this basis should carry not only
the dependence on the modulus of the transverse momenta but also
the dependence on their angle on the transverse plane:
\begin{eqnarray}
\left< \vec{q}\right|\left.\nu,n\right> &=& \frac{1}{\pi \sqrt{2}}
\left(q^2\right)^{i \nu -\frac{1}{2}} \, e^{i n \theta}.
\label{eignfns}
\end{eqnarray}
The projection $\left<n,\nu\right.\left|\vec{q}\right>$ would be the complex conjugate of
the previous expression. This basis has been chosen such that it is orthonormal:
\begin{eqnarray}
\left<n',\nu'\right.\left|\nu,n\right>&=& \delta\left(\nu-\nu'\right)
\delta_{n n'}.
\end{eqnarray}
The action of the NLO kernel on this basis, which was calculated in
Ref.~\cite{Kotikov:2000pm}, contains non--diagonal terms and can be written as
\begin{eqnarray}
{\hat K} \left|\nu,n\right> &=& \left\{\frac{}{}{\bar \alpha}_s \, \chi_0\left(\left|n\right|,\nu\right) + {\bar \alpha}_s^2 \, \chi_1\left(\left|n\right|,\nu\right) \right.\nonumber\\
&&\left.\hspace{-2cm}+\,{\bar \alpha}_s^2 \,\frac{\beta_0}{8 N_c}\left[2\,\chi_0\left(\left|n\right|,\nu\right) \left(i \frac{\partial}{\partial \nu}+ \log{\mu^2}\right)+\left(i\frac{\partial}{\partial \nu}\chi_0\left(\left|n\right|,\nu\right)\right)\right]\right\} \left|\nu,n\right>,
\label{opKernel}
\end{eqnarray}
where, from now on, ${\bar \alpha}_s$ stands for ${\bar \alpha}_s \left(\mu^2\right)$, the coupling evaluated at the renormalization point $\mu$ in the $\overline{\rm MS}$ scheme. The first line of Eq.~(\ref{opKernel}) corresponds
to the scale invariant sector of the kernel. The function $\chi_1$ for a general conformal spin
reads
\begin{eqnarray}
\chi_1\left(n,\gamma \right) &=& {\cal S} \chi_0 \left(n, \gamma\right)
+ \frac{3}{2} \zeta\left(3\right) - \frac{\beta_0}{8 N_c}\chi_0^2\left(n,\gamma\right)\nonumber\\
&+&\frac{1}{4}\left[\psi''\left(\gamma+\frac{n}{2}\right)+\psi''\left(1-\gamma+\frac{n}{2}\right)-2 \,\phi\left(n,\gamma\right)-2 \,\phi\left(n,1-\gamma\right)\right]\nonumber\\
&-&\frac{\pi^2 \cos{\left(\pi \gamma\right)}}{4 \sin^2\left(\pi \gamma\right)\left(1-2\gamma\right)}\left\{\left[3+\left(1+\frac{n_f}{N_c^3}\right)\frac{2+3\gamma\left(1-\gamma\right)}{\left(3-2\gamma\right)\left(1+2\gamma\right)}\right]\delta_{n 0}\right.\nonumber\\
&&\left.\hspace{2cm}-\left(1+\frac{n_f}{N_c^3}\right)\frac{\gamma\left(1-\gamma\right)}{2\left(3-2\gamma\right)\left(1+2\gamma\right)}\delta_{n 2}\right\}.
\end{eqnarray}
The definitions ${\cal S}=\left(4-\pi^2+5 \beta_0/N_c\right)/12$, and
$\beta_0 = (11 N_c-2 n_f)/3$, have been used. The function $\phi$ can be
found in Ref.~\cite{Kotikov:2000pm} and reads
\begin{eqnarray}
\phi(n,\gamma) &=& \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}
\frac{(-1)^{(k+1)}}{k+\gamma+\frac{n}{2}}
\left(\frac{}{}\psi'(k+n+1)-\psi'(k+1)\right.\nonumber\\
&&\left.\hspace{-2cm}+(-1)^{(k+1)} \left(\beta'(k+n+1)+\beta'(k+1)\right)+\frac{\psi(k+1)-\psi(k+n+1)}{k+\gamma+\frac{n}{2}}\right),
\end{eqnarray}
with
\begin{eqnarray}
4 \,\beta'(\gamma) &=& \psi'\left(\frac{1+\gamma}{2}\right)-\psi'\left(\frac{\gamma}{2}\right).
\end{eqnarray}

In this basis terms with derivatives are associated to the running of the
coupling~\cite{Forshaw:2000hv}, this is the case in the second line of
Eq.~(\ref{opKernel}). In particular, the part containing
$i \frac{\partial \chi_0}{\partial \nu}$, which
breaks the $\nu \rightarrow -\nu$ symmetry, will be shown to give a
zero contribution to the cross section when $p_1^2 = p_2^2$. It will also be
shown how the term with $i \chi_0 \frac{\partial }{\partial \nu}$ mixes in a
non--trivial way the Green's function with the jet vertices.

To represent the cross section in the present formalism the starting point is
to project the jet vertices on the basis in Eq.~(\ref{eignfns}):
\begin{eqnarray}
\int d^2{\vec{q}}\,\frac{\Phi_{\rm jet_1}^{(0)}\left(\vec{q},p_1^2\right)}{q^2} \left<\vec{q}\right.\left|\nu,n\right> =
\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\frac{1}{\left(\frac{1}{2}-i \nu\right)}\left(p_1^2\right)^{i \nu - \frac{1}{2}} \delta_{n,0} \equiv c_1\left(\nu\right) \delta_{n,0}.
\label{IFproj}
\end{eqnarray}
The $c_2\left(\nu\right)$ projection of $\Phi_{\rm jet_2}^{(0)}$ on $\left<n,\nu\right|\left.\vec{q}\right>$ is the complex conjugate of~(\ref{IFproj}) with $p_1^2$ being replaced by $p_2^2$. The corresponding inverse relations are
\begin{eqnarray}
\frac{\Phi_{\rm jet_1}^{(0)}\left(\vec{q},p_1^2\right)}{q^2} &=& \sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty} \int_{-\infty}^\infty d \nu \, c_1\left(\nu\right) \delta_{n,0} \left<n,\nu\right.\left|\vec{q}\right>,\\
\frac{\Phi_{\rm jet_2}^{(0)}\left(\vec{q},p_2^2\right)}{q^2} &=& \sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty} \int_{-\infty}^\infty  d \nu \, c_2\left(\nu\right) \delta_{n,0} \left<\vec{q}\right.\left|\nu,n\right>.
\end{eqnarray}
The cross section can then be rewritten as
\begin{eqnarray}
{\hat \sigma} \left(\alpha_s, {\rm Y},p_{1,2}^2\right) &=& \frac{\pi^2 {\bar \alpha}_s^2}{2} \sum_{n,n'=-\infty}^\infty \int_{-\infty}^\infty d \nu \int_{-\infty}^\infty d \nu' c_1\left(\nu\right) c_2\left(\nu'\right) \delta_{n,0}
\, \delta_{n',0} \nonumber \\
&&\hspace{1cm} \times \int \frac{d \omega}{2 \pi i} \, e^{\omega {\rm Y}} \left<n,\nu\right|{\hat f}_\omega \left|\nu',n'\right>.
\end{eqnarray}
Making use of the operator representation in Eq.~(\ref{opGGF}), the action
of the kernel in Eq.~(\ref{opKernel}) and integration by parts, ${\hat \sigma}$ can be expressed as
\begin{eqnarray}
{\hat \sigma} \left(\alpha_s, {\rm Y},p_{1,2}^2\right) &=&
\frac{\pi^2 {\bar \alpha}_s^2}{2} \sum_{n=-\infty}^\infty \int_{-\infty}^\infty d \nu
\,e^{{\bar \alpha}_s \chi_0\left(\left|n\right|,\nu\right) {\rm Y}}
c_1\left(\nu\right) c_2\left(\nu\right) \delta_{n,0} \label{logdercross}\\
&&\hspace{-3.3cm}\times \left\{1+{\bar \alpha}_s^2 \, {\rm Y} \left[\chi_1\left(\left|n\right|,\nu\right)+\frac{\beta_0}{4 N_c} \left(\log{(\mu^2)}+ \frac{i}{2} \frac{\partial}{\partial \nu}\log{\left(\frac{c_1\left(\nu\right)}{c_2\left(\nu\right)}\right)}+ \frac{i}{2} \frac{\partial}{\partial \nu}\right)\chi_0\left(\left|n\right|,\nu\right)\right]\right\}.\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
For the LO jet vertices the logarithmic derivative in
Eq.~(\ref{logdercross}) explicitly reads
\begin{eqnarray}
- i \frac{\partial}{\partial \nu}\log{\left(\frac{c_1\left(\nu\right)}{c_2\left(\nu\right)}\right)} &=& \log{\left(p_1^2p_2^2\right)}+ \frac{1}{\frac{1}{4}+\nu^2}.
\end{eqnarray}
The angular differential cross section can be calculated considering the
following representation of the $c_1 c_2$ product:
\begin{eqnarray}
c_1(\nu) \,c_2(\nu) \,\delta_{n,0}&=& \frac{1}{2 \sqrt{p_1^2 p_2^2}} \frac{1}{\left(\frac{1}{4}+\nu^2\right)}\left(\frac{p_1^2}{p_2^2}\right)^{i \nu}
\int_{-\pi}^\pi \frac{d \phi}{2 \pi}  e^{i n \phi},
\end{eqnarray}
with $\phi = \theta_1-\theta_2 - \pi$.
Therefore, in the case where the two resolution momenta are equal,
$p_1^2 = p_2^2 \equiv p^2$, the angular differential cross section can
be expressed as
\begin{eqnarray}
\frac{d {\hat \sigma}\left(\alpha_s, {\rm Y},p^2\right)}{d \phi}  &=&
\frac{\pi^2 {\bar \alpha}_s^2}{4 p^2} \sum_{n=-\infty}^\infty
\frac{1}{2 \pi}e^{i n \phi} \int_{-\infty}^\infty d \nu
\,e^{{\bar \alpha}_s \chi_0\left(\left|n\right|,\nu\right) {\rm Y}}
\frac{1}{\left(\frac{1}{4}+\nu^2\right)}\nonumber\\
&&\hspace{-3cm}\times \left\{1+{\bar \alpha}_s^2 \, {\rm Y} \left[\chi_1\left(\left|n\right|,\nu\right)-\frac{\beta_0}{8 N_c} \chi_0\left(\left|n\right|,\nu\right) \left(2 \log{\left(\frac{p^2}{\mu^2}\right)}+\frac{1}{\left(\frac{1}{4}+\nu^2\right)}\right)\right]\right\}.
\label{Noexp}
\end{eqnarray}
The term proportional to $\frac{\partial \chi_0}{\partial \nu}$ in
Eq.~(\ref{logdercross}) gives no contribution after
integration as it is an odd function in $\nu$. Within NLO accuracy there is
freedom to exponentiate the integrand of this result. In this work this is
done both for the scale invariant and for the scale dependent terms, in close
resemblance with the property of reggeization. Furthermore, renormalization
group improved perturbation theory is called for to introduce the replacement
\begin{eqnarray}
{\bar \alpha}_s - {\bar \alpha}_s^2 \frac{\beta_0}{4 N_c} \log{\left(\frac{p^2}{\mu^2}\right)} &\rightarrow& {\bar \alpha}_s
\left(p^2\right).
\end{eqnarray}
In this way the differential
distribution can be conveniently rewritten as
\begin{eqnarray}
\frac{d {\hat \sigma}\left(\alpha_s, {\rm Y},p^2\right)}{d \phi}  &=&
\frac{\pi^3 {\bar \alpha}_s^2}{2 p^2} \frac{1}{2 \pi}\sum_{n=-\infty}^\infty
e^{i n \phi} {\cal C}_n \left({\rm Y}\right),
\end{eqnarray}
with
\begin{eqnarray}
{\cal C}_n \left({\rm Y}\right) =
\int_{-\infty}^\infty \frac{d \nu}{2 \pi}\frac{e^{{\bar \alpha}_s \left(p^2\right){\rm Y} \left(\chi_0\left(\left|n\right|,\nu\right)+{\bar \alpha}_s  \left(p^2\right) \left(\chi_1\left(\left|n\right|,\nu\right)-\frac{\beta_0}{8 N_c} \frac{\chi_0\left(\left|n\right|,\nu\right)}{\left(\frac{1}{4}+\nu^2\right)}\right)\right)}}{\left(\frac{1}{4}+\nu^2\right)}.
\label{Cn}
\end{eqnarray}
Different interesting observables can be constructed with these coefficients
and they will be studied in detail in the next section. Due to the large and
negative, with respect to the LL terms, size of the NLL corrections it will
turn out that the exponentiated form in Eq.~(\ref{Cn}) is mandatory in order
to reach convergent results. This is discussed below.

\section{Analysis of convergence and study of observables}

To investigate the properties of the different parts of the kernel it is
useful to introduce five types of coefficients. The first one is
\begin{eqnarray}
{\cal C}_n^{\rm LL} \left({\rm Y}\right) &=&
\int_{-\infty}^\infty \frac{d \nu}{2\pi}
\frac{e^{{\bar \alpha}_s {\rm Y}\chi_0\left(\left|n\right|,\nu\right)}}{\left(\frac{1}{4}+\nu^2\right)},
\end{eqnarray}
defined at LL accuracy and previously studied in the literature (see last
reference in~\cite{LLResults}). When all the NLL terms are exponentiated as in
Eq.~(\ref{Cn}) it will be referred to as ${\cal C}_n^{\rm NLL}$, while if the
NLL pieces are not exponentiated, as in Eq.~(\ref{Noexp}), it is named
${\cal C}_n^{\rm Expansion}$. If in Eq.~(\ref{Cn}) the $\chi_1$ kernel is
removed then the coefficients correspond to the case of LL plus running
coupling and it is noted as ${\cal C}_n^{\rm Running\,coupling}$. Finally,
the scale invariant contributions can be isolated by setting $\beta_0$ to zero
in the exponent of Eq.~(\ref{Cn}) and this will be called
${\cal C}_n^{\rm Scale\,invariant}$.

The coefficient governing the energy dependence of the cross section
corresponds to $n=0$:
\begin{eqnarray}
{\hat \sigma}\left(\alpha_s, {\rm Y},p^2\right) &=&
\frac{\pi^3 {\bar \alpha}_s^2}{2 p^2} \, {\cal C}_0 \left({\rm Y}\right).
\end{eqnarray}
As the NLL corrections are large and negative, when not exponentiated
they lead to a non--convergent behavior. This is seen in Fig.~\ref{CnvsY0}
where the resolution scale $p = 30 \, {\rm GeV}$ has been chosen. The
values $n_f = 4$ and $\Lambda_{\rm QCD} = 0.1416$ GeV were taken in
${\bar \alpha}_s \left(p^2\right) = 4 N_c / \left(\beta_0
\ln{\left(p^2/\Lambda_{\rm QCD}^2\right)}\right)$. In this plot it can be
seen how the coefficient ${\cal C}_0^{\rm Expansion}$ generates an unphysical
behaviour in contrast to the exponential rise associated to the other
coefficients. Nevertheless it should be noticed that the term proportional to
${\bar \alpha_s}^2 {\rm Y}$
\begin{eqnarray}
\chi_0  \left(\frac{c_1^{(1)}}{c_1^{(0)}}+\frac{c_2^{(1)}}{c_2^{(0)}}\right)
\end{eqnarray}
would be added to $\chi_1$ in Eq.~(\ref{Noexp}) if the NLO jet vertex
$c^{(0)} + {\bar \alpha_s} c^{(1)}$ was
brought into the calculation. The convergence properties of Eq.~(\ref{Noexp})
might well change in that case.

A familiar consequence of introducing the effects of the running of the
coupling is that the LL intercept is reduced as can be seen also in
Fig.~\ref{CnvsY0}. Meanwhile, if the scale
invariant sector of the NLL kernel, $\chi_1$, is also introduced then a further decrease of this rise takes place. The $n = 0$ coefficient is directly related
to the normalized cross section
\begin{eqnarray}
\frac{{\hat \sigma} \left({\rm Y}\right)}{{\hat \sigma} \left(0\right)}
&=& \frac{{\cal C}_0 \left({\rm Y}\right)}{{\cal C}_0\left(0\right)}.
\end{eqnarray}
\begin{figure}[tbp]
\epsfig{width=8cm,file=C0.ps,angle=-90}
\caption{Evolution in Y of the ${\cal C}_0 ({\rm Y})$ coefficient.}
\label{CnvsY0}
\end{figure}

The rise in rapidity of this observable is shown in
Fig.~\ref{SectionconY}. Clearly the NLL intercept is very much reduced with
respect to the LL case. In Fig.~\ref{Inter} large values of Y are
considered in order to approach the asymptotic regime. The LL intercept
tends to the asymptotic value of $4 \,{\bar \alpha}_s (30) \ln{2} \sim 0.37$
while the NLL result lies around one third of this number.
\begin{figure}[tbp]
\centering
  \epsfig{width=8cm,file=SigmaY.ps,angle=-90}
\caption{Evolution of the partonic cross section with the rapidity separation of the dijets. }
\label{SectionconY}

\hspace{0.4cm}
\epsfig{width=8cm,file=Intercepts.ps,angle=-90}
\caption{Intercepts for the cross section as a function of rapidity.}
\label{Inter}
\end{figure}

Independently of the NLL kernel being exponentiated or not, the remaining
coefficients with $n \geq 1$ all decrease with Y. This can be seen in the
plots of Fig.~\ref{CnvsY123}.
\begin{figure}[tbp]
\centering
\hspace{0.4cm}
\epsfig{width=6cm,file=C1.ps,angle=-90}

\epsfig{width=6cm,file=C3.ps,angle=-90}
\caption{Evolution in Y of the ${\cal C}_n ({\rm Y})$ coefficients for $n=1,2,3$.}
\label{CnvsY123}
\end{figure}
The consequence of this decrease is that the angular correlations also
diminish as the rapidity interval between the jets gets larger. This point
can be studied in detail using the mean values
\begin{eqnarray}
\left<\cos{\left( m \phi \right)}\right> &=& \frac{{\cal C}_m \left({\rm Y}\right)}{{\cal C}_0\left({\rm Y}\right)}.
\end{eqnarray}
$\left<\cos{\left(\phi\right)}\right>$ is calculated in Fig.~\ref{Cos1Y}. The
most important consequence of this plot is that the NLL effects dramatically
decrease the azimuthal angle decorrelation. This is already the case when
only the running of the coupling is introduced but the scale invariant terms
make this effect much bigger. This is encouraging from the
phenomenological point of view given that the data at the Tevatron typically
have lower decorrelation than predicted by LL BFKL or LL with running coupling.
\begin{figure}[tbp]
\centering
  \epsfig{width=8cm,file=Cos1vsY.ps ,angle=-90}
\caption{Dijet azimuthal angle decorrelation as a function of their separation in rapidity.}
\label{Cos1Y}
\end{figure}
It is worth noting that the
difference in the prediction for decorrelation between
LL and NLL is mostly driven by the $n=0$ conformal spin. This can be
understood looking at the ratio
\begin{eqnarray}
\frac{\left<\cos{\left(\phi \right)}\right>^{\rm NLL}}{\left<\cos{\left(\phi \right)}\right>^{\rm LL}} &=& \frac{{\cal C}_1^{\rm NLL} \left({\rm Y}\right)}{{\cal C}_0^{\rm NLL}\left({\rm Y}\right)}\frac{{\cal C}_0^{\rm LL} \left({\rm Y}\right)}{{\cal C}_1^{\rm LL}\left({\rm Y}\right)},
\end{eqnarray}
and noticing that
\begin{eqnarray}
1.2 > \frac{{\cal C}_1^{\rm NLL} \left({\rm Y}\right)}{{\cal C}_1^{\rm LL}\left({\rm Y}\right)} > 1.
\end{eqnarray}
This ratio is calculated in Fig.~\ref{CosRatio}.
\begin{figure}[tbp]
\centering
  \epsfig{width=8cm,file=C1NLL-LL.ps ,angle=-90}
\caption{Comparative ratio between the NLL and LL coefficients for $n=1$ conformal
spin.}
\label{CosRatio}
\end{figure}
This point is a consequence of the good convergence in terms of asymptotic
intercepts of the NLL BFKL calculation for conformal spins larger than zero.
In particular the $n=1$ case is special in that the property of zero intercept
at LL, $\chi_0(1,1/2) = 0$, is preserved under radiative corrections since
\begin{eqnarray}
\chi_1\left(1,\frac{1}{2}\right) =
{\cal S} \chi_0 \left(1, \frac{1}{2}\right)
+ \frac{3}{2} \zeta\left(3\right)
- \frac{\beta_0}{8 N_c}\chi_0^2\left(1, \frac{1}{2}\right)
+\frac{\psi''\left(1\right)}{2} - \phi\left(1, \frac{1}{2}\right)
\end{eqnarray}
is also zero.
For completeness the $m=2,3$ cases for $\left<\cos{\left(m \phi\right)}\right>$
are shown in Fig.~\ref{Cos23Y}.
These distributions are relevant because they prove the structure of the
higher conformal spins. The trend is the same as previously discussed: the
correlation increases as higher order corrections in the small $x$ resummation
are included.

\section{Conclusions}

An analytic procedure has been presented to calculate the effect of higher order
corrections in the description of Mueller--Navelet
jets where two jets with moderately high and similar transverse momentum
 are produced at a large
relative rapidity separation in hadron--hadron collisions. This is a
promising observable to study small $x$ physics at the Large Hadron Collider
at CERN given its large energy range. The focus of
the analysis has been on those effects with direct origin in the NLO BFKL kernel,
while the jet vertices have been considered at LO accuracy. It
has been shown how the growth with energy of the cross section is reduced
when going from a LL to a NLL approximation,
and how the azimuthal angle decorrelations largely decrease due to the
higher order effects. The present study has been performed at partonic
level while the implementation of a full analysis, including parton
distribution
functions, NLO jet vertices and the investigation of
collinearly improved kernels, will be published elsewhere.

Q: Disable password request from suspend - 18.04 How can I disable password request after suspend in Ubuntu 18.04? I have already turned off the screen lock but that didn't fix it.
I am new Ubuntu user. There seems to be lots of information on how to fix this in older versions.

A: You can disable the password from suspend in 18.04 by going into Settings -> Privacy -> Screen Lock -> [Click he Slider from On to Off]

A: Type the following in the terminal after the $ prompt:
gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.screensaver ubuntu-lock-on-suspend

If the result displayed is true then set it to false using:
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver ubuntu-lock-on-suspend false

NOTE: The above question and this answer is for Ubuntu 18.04.

A: Disable screen lock after suspend by installing dconf-editor
sudo apt install dconf-editor

then navigate to
org/gnome/desktop/screensaver and turn off
ubuntu-lock-on-suspend.

A: In Ubuntu 19.04, there is finally a method to configure this without executing commands:

*

*Open the "Settings" program, or start it with gnome-control-center.

*Navigate to "Privacy" and click on "Screen locking".

*Disable "Lock the screen in standby".
Internally, it has just the same effect as the command mentioned in another answer here:
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver ubuntu-lock-on-suspend false

A car with six people inside crashed following a high-speed pursuit late Saturday night after police responded to a domestic dispute in Oxnard, authorities said.
In the end, four adults were arrested and one adult and one juvenile were taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
The incident unfolded around 11:13 p.m. when a domestic dispute call brought Oxnard Police Department officers to the 4900 block of Terrace Avenue, the department reported. The block is located on the north side of Pleasant Valley Road, west of Rose Avenue, in the Terrace Estates neighborhood near the city's southern end.
The reporting party said one of the people involved had a firearm and that he had left in a black Chrysler 300 sedan, officials said, although police ultimately did not locate a firearm.
As officers arrived, they saw the black Chrysler leaving, authorities said. Officers tried to stop the car, but the driver allegedly failed to yield, according to the police account, and a pursuit started.

The Chrysler headed north on Rose Avenue and got on southbound Highway 101, authorities said. The chase quickly exceeded speeds of 100 mph, and the pursuit was terminated, with officers backing off, officials said.
The Chrysler got off the freeway at the next exit, Del Norte Avenue, where it crashed while trying to turn on Del Norte, authorities said. The car rolled down an embankment and landed upside-down on its roof, officials said. Officers who had been chasing the vehicle saw a big cloud of smoke where the Chrysler had gotten off the freeway and called for medical assistance, authorities said.
Six people in the car got out without assistance, were treated at the scene and taken to a local hospital, police said.
At the Terrace Avenue residence, officers who spoke with the victim were told one suspect, identified as Luis Alfaro, 20, had allegedly assaulted the victim, police said.
A young child was reportedly present during the assault, police say. Other people at the scene also allegedly began assaulting the victim with glass bottles before fleeing, with the victim suffering minor injuries, authorities said.
Four of the people in the vehicle, including Alfaro, were arrested on suspicion of felony offenses. All are Oxnard residents.
Alfaro was arrested on suspicion of felony assault with a deadly weapon, felony domestic abuse and on suspicion of misdemeanor-level child endangerment, according to police and online jail records. He remained in Ventura County jail Sunday afternoon with bail set at $35,000.
The driver, Marcos Cervantes, 18, was arrested on suspicion of felony vehicular evading causing injury and felony driving under the combined influence of alcohol and drugs with injury, records show. He remained in Ventura County jail Sunday with bail set at $110,000.
Adrian Perez, 20, was arrested on suspicion of felony assault with a deadly weapon and remained in jail Sunday in lieu of $20,000 bail. Angelica Hernandez, 18, was arrested on suspicion of the same offense and was also in jail with bail set at $20,000, jail records show.
Another adult and a female juvenile in the Chrysler was not immediately arrested as they were being treated for non-life threatening injuries suffered during the crash, police said.
Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call the Oxnard Police Department at 805-385-7600. Anonymous calls can be made to Ventura County Crimestoppers at 800-222-8477.

I have never felt like just another client among many with Red Canyon Management, they have always made a special effort to know me as person, my hobbies, my interests as well as my aspirations as an actor. As a result I have always felt fully supported, if I call them with a problem or if I need advice they are always there and time is never an issue. It is this personal touch which makes the difference.
I just want to say thank you so much for being incredible on Sunday at the EE BAFTA's, it's a wonderful feeling having such a strong and sincere support guiding me. Thank you!
In an industry as challenging and fast paced as ours, it's essential for a performer to choose their representation wisely. All too often, the relationship feels one sided and deeply frustrating, getting lost in a sea of faces with little to no contact or proactive support. Red Canyon understands that the actor/agent/presenter relationship is a partnership and one which requires trust and understanding. Red Canyon understand who I am, where I came from, where I need to be and how best to achieve my goals. In fact, I see my management more as friends rather than representation and I can offer no better recommendation than that!
I have been represented by Red Canyon Management since 2006; right from the start we have had clear dialogue about my vision for my career and how together we can achieve it. I have worked on some great projects and each time Sarah has rang me to confirm I got the job, I think she was perhaps even happier than me, it felt like family. It really feels like I have total support and guidance in this challenging industry. Thank you RCM team.
I am really grateful for the supportive representation that Red Canyon Management offer. I have been extremely impressed by their commitment to stand up for their actors and I firmly believe that they have my interests at heart. That can be rare in this industry and so I think they are priceless. They work really hard behind the scenes and this pays off as I am currently touring with a show they put me forward for.
Red Canyon Management make you feel as if you're their only client. Always on hand to answer emergency and non-emergency queries, even though you know they're working hard securing your next role.

China's Claims in the South China Sea Rejected
I'm honored to participate in this conversation with leading experts including Peter Dutton, M. Taylor Fravel, Orville Schell, and Jessica Chen Weiss.
Andrew S. Erickson, "China's Claims in the South China Sea Rejected," ChinaFile, 12 July 2016.
The Arbitration Tribunal at the Hague regarding the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) has just made a big splash with its landmark ruling in Permanent Court of Arbitration Case No. 2013-19—The South China Sea Arbitration (The Republic of the Philippines v. The People's Republic of China).
"The Philippines welcomes the issuance today…on the arbitration proceedings initiated by the Philippines with regard to the South China Sea," Foreign Affairs Secretary Perfecto Yasay rightly told the press this morning.
His welcoming is rippling across the Asia-Pacific and around the world: This is a great victory for Manila, Washington, and all other parties committed to international law; and for the peaceful, open global system that they rightly support.
The Tribunal's full-length "award" document is a 500-plus-page doorstop, readily digestible by only the most determined of legal experts. Many will be struck by the fact that the Tribunal found Beijing to have violated no fewer than 14 UNCLOS provisions, 6 International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS) rules, and one general rule of international law.
Fortunately for non-specialists, the Tribunal's the bottom line is clear: China's sweeping yet undefined South China Sea claims don't hold water.
Here are the principal related findings:
China's "nine-dash line" and related "historic rights" claims have no legal basis.
The Spratly features that China claims cannot, individually or collectively, generate an Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) for Beijing.
China has violated sovereign rights of the Philippines, illegally interfered with traditional fishing rights of the Philippines, and unlawfully created serious risk of collision by engaging in unsafe navigational practices and obstructing Philippine vessels.
China has violated obligations to preserve and protect the maritime environment generally, conserve fishing stocks, and prevent Chinese fishermen from large-scale harvesting of endangered species. Experts find major damage to reefs.
China's industrial-scale land reclamation and artificial island construction violates obligations during dispute resolution proceedings and does not confer any additional maritime legal rights to the features themselves.
China doesn't have to like the Tribunal's ruling, but—having ratified UNCLOS—it is legally bound to respect it in practice.
Any failure to do so will tarnish Beijing's reputation badly, and sharply increase already-growing costs in the court of world opinion by stoking broader fears that as it becomes increasingly powerful China will:
Abandon previous restraint in word and deed
Bully its smaller neighbors
Implicitly or explicitly threaten the use of force to resolve disputes
Attempt to change precipitously—or else run roughshod over—important international norms that preserve peace across Asia and underwrite the global system on which mutual prosperity depends
Meanwhile, all parties concerned must remain vigilant and prevent China from destabilizing a vital yet vulnerable region that remains haunted by history; or, worse still, from grabbing with coercion or force what it could not—and now clearly cannot—obtain legally.

Main upward pressure came from cost of food and alcoholic beverages (+0.1 percent following a +0.9 percent in August); restaurants and hotels (+0.8 percent from +0.9 percent in August). Prices also increased for miscellaneous goods and services (+0.3 percent from +0.4 percent in August); health (+0.2 percent from +0.3 percent in August); recreation and culture (+0.3 percent from +0.8 percent in August); furnishing and household equipment (+0.3 percent from +0.4 percent in August); clothing and footwear (+0.4 percent, the same as August).
Meantime prices went down at slower pace for transport (-0.1 percent, from -2.3 percent in August) and housing and utilities (-1.4 percent, from -2.3 percent in August) while communication cost fell further (-1 percent from -0.4 percent in August).
On a monthly basis, consumer prices fell 0.2 percent, following a 0.2 percent rise in the preceding month and below market expectations of 0.3 percent decline. The decreased was mainly due lower prices of transport (-1.3 percent) and food (-0.1 percent).
The harmonized index on the month and on the year, both rose by 1.9 and 0.1 percent, respectively.


Happy Tuesday Everyone! I hope any Monday blues are being followed up with the tuesday groove. You know where you have accepted it's a work week and it isn't that bad… go by your favorite coffee shop or play your favorite music on the way to work with a happy heart? Be there people, it's only Tuesday. My Monday on the other hand started off kind of odd. I woke up bright and early at 4:45am to head to the gym for barbell but my foot was still bothering me. It is very weird because I only feel it when I put on my shoe like its bruised or something. I walked all the way up to the door and turned around because I just didn't want to chance anything before the race this weekend. I came home and got a pretty good workout though thanks to my pinterest workout board, I can feel my abs today that is for sure! I ended up doing the 9 minute plank workout (a personal favorite) with the best time I've ever done of 10:30 minutes (some day I'm gonna make it to 9 minutes… hey I use to cheat and still only be able to do it in around 12 minutes so I'm getting there!), 300 Abs Workout, and the an Arm Burner. In total I worked out for about 30 minutes, not the full hour I would have done in barbell but safer for my foot.
I followed my workout up with a pumpkin (kind of) green smoothie, I was so desperate to put some spinach in it I picked the spinach out of the spring mix we bought at Costco Sunday night. Paul watched in amazement… he is hardly ever speechless but I think I kind of stunned him this time in my desperation for spinach.
I got enough spinach leaves to make it green and made Paul speechless, Monday TOTAL SUCCESS!!!!
After that I did more grocery shopping then I ever care to do again. Don't get me wrong the grocery store is kind of relaxing for me, I love looking at new products and finding new recipe ideas. Aside from Hobby being my last name (for now), food is a very relaxing Hobby for me. However, more than one store at a time is overkill and stressful, thats just the way it is.
It started with Sunday nights quick Costco run.
(Yes that is the spring mix I picked the spinach out of.) Can I just tell you I had a proud parent moment at Costco with Paul (weird because he is my fiance but just roll with me a minute.) He is on a corn dog obsession at the moment, we go through a box of Trader Joe's turkey corn dogs each week. So, he HAD to look at the Costco box of 96 corn dogs. He pulled it out, turned over the label and READ IT. I would have been happy with that, but then he went a step further and interpreted it. Making comments like "thats kind of a lot of calories for one… well they are bigger so I could have two for dinner… whoa the sodium is really high…. but they are chicken…" If we had room in the tiny apartment freezer for them I would have actually let 96 corn dogs into my house just because of that, but we don't. It just reminded me that I do a lot of shoving nutrition down his throat (and other people sorry family and friends) but you never know by your example what people will pick up on without you telling them.
Thanks for letting me share that, now here is what I picked up at Sprouts.
I was super excited about the uncured chicken dogs, till I saw the same thing with more protein at TJ's for a dollar cheaper. Shopping Fail.
Then Target for a new blow dryer and random other things, and meeting my mom for Lunch and then wedding planning. Then the day was already over and I spent FOUR hours baking three batches of Cinnamon Apple Quinoa Bars (which I pumpkinfied, recipe coming soon), prepping Spaghetti Squash for tonight, and making dinner. Whew, thats some crazy kitchen time, plus it looked like World War 4 after, but it was worth it for the ease of the rest of the week.
Thats it, off to tackle my to do list and four mile run (depending on what it feels like when I put on my shoe.) Have a good day!

Empire State Building Shooter Didn't Expect to Return Home After Shooting
By Erin McLaughlin August 26, 2012
(ABC News)
A search of the apartment of the gunman killed by police outside the Empire State Building showed the shooter apparently had no intention of returning home after shooting his former co-worker.
Police found an envelope with his keys left behind for his landlord, leading investigators to believe he did not expect to be back.
Jeffrey Johnson was killed by police Friday in midtown Manhattan, after killing a former co-worker on the street and raising his .45-calibre semi-automatic gun at police officers. Although he did not get off any shots, officers fired 16 shots, killing Johnson, and wounding nine bystanders.
Witnesses told ABC News that police shouted to Johnson to stop before the shooting began.
Despite initial reports on social media of a mass shooting spree, all nine bystanders were hit by police gunfire.
None of the bystanders, who were hit by bullets or shrapnel, were seriously injured. It isn't that unusual for bystanders to get caught in crossfire between police and a suspect.
Even on a crowded street, like the one outside the Empire State Building, police officers are trained to shoot if they have a clear shot at somebody they consider to be a threat.
Steve Kardian, a former Westchester police officer, told ABC News it's a matter of public safety.
"If he has to be neutralized in a crowd, it is better to take him out than to risk him shooting the officers and shooting other people in the vicinity," Kardian said.
In cases such as this, where bystanders were injured by police bullets, the victims often sue the police department or the city. Some win large settlements, but if the police can show the suspect they shot posed a threat, courts may rule in favor of the police and grant them immunity for liability.
In this case, police could argue that a man pointing a loaded gun at police, as surveillance video shows Johnson did, is certainly such a threat.
Johnson had been in a long-standing dispute with Steven Ercolino, an employee at Hazan Imports Corp., where Johnson used to work. His employment there ended bitterly, and the two men had filed complaints against each other.

Prime Minister unveils striking digital artwork in Auckland's Aotea Centre
A large-scale digital work by renowned New Zealand artist Lisa Reihana is immersing viewers in a visual spectacle, telling the traditional Māori story of the origins of our world.
View of ihi from the Stalls Foyer of Aotea Centre

Jacinda Ardern (Prime Minister and Minister for Arts, Culture and Heritage)
Andrew Barnes (Chairperson, Regional Facilities Auckland)
Commissioned by Regional Facilities Auckland (RFA), the permanent installation was officially unveiled by Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern on 29 January 2020 in her capacity as Minister for Culture and Heritage.
Ihi fills two floor-to-ceiling spaces in the Aotea Centre foyer, enthralling viewers with the story of Ranginui and Papatūānuku playing out on 65 square metre digital screens. This makes it one of the largest and most significant works of contemporary Māori art in Aotearoa New Zealand. Lisa's previous work, which includes Digital Marae 2001 and the iconic in Pursuit of Venus [infected] received international renown and has had a significant impact on the reputation of Auckland and New Zealand. The new piece is set to become one of the country's iconic works of art.
In his speech, Auckland Mayor Phil Goff said the work will be a significant draw card to Auckland's Aotea Arts Quarter. "Like other world-class cities, such as Melbourne with its Federation Square, and London with the Southbank, Auckland needs public spaces that proudly showcase our identity and our stories.
"Ihi is not only a fitting centrepiece for our Aotea Arts Quarter, it is also an important addition to our rich Māori arts and cultural landscape."
RFA Board Chair Andrew Barnes said his organisation has a mission to enrich life in Auckland and create unique spaces the community can enjoy, noting Aotea Centre's recent comprehensive internal refurbishment.
"Aotea Centre forms the heart of so many important arts and cultural activities in Auckland," he said. "We now have a modern venue that is accessible for all, and this stunning artwork makes it even more inviting for our visitors.
"Most importantly, it celebrates Te Ao Māori. As kaitiaki for arts and culture, our role is to nurture and celebrate this heritage.
"We recently renamed Aotea Centre's Kiri Te Kanawa Theatre to recognise a great ambassador for the arts and for New Zealand. Now we have Ihi, by one of our country's most celebrated Māori artists."
Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki Director Kirsten Paisley said the unveiling of Ihi marks a significant contribution to Māori art, and to Auckland's public art legacy.
"I am especially delighted that a contemporary work of architectural scale is telling this timeless Māori story in one of Auckland's most important public buildings," she said.
"It is incredibly exciting to see a spiritually rich and poignant relationship between mother and son told in an active public space. Ihi, is a slowly revolving, cosmic journey which collapses the creation of the universe, as an ancient narrative that is at once alive and ever more present within us for Lisa's telling of it. This commission is ambitious, brave and entirely transforms the Aotea Centre. Ihi will have a profound impact on our public art environment and future ambitions. A new benchmark has been set."
