Neotropical present, Pacific: Hawaii present ‒ present, Pantropical present, Polynesia present, Southeast Asia present, Southern America, tropical America present
The genus as well as a small number of species are pantropical, but most species have a more limited distribution in either Southeast Asia or Tropical America. The phylogeny and biogeography were analyzed by Hennequin et al. (2010) who found that the Neotropical and Paleotropical species form two distinct clades, with the widespread species N. abrupta, N. biserrata, N. cordifolia and N. undulata nested in the Paleotropical clade. Brown & Brown (1931) state for all species of Nephrolepis that they can "reasonably be considered as aboriginally introduced" in Southeast Polynesia. If true, that would suggest a contact between the native population on Hawaii with Caribbean tribes to explain the occurrence of N. exaltata on Hawaii.
The morphology of Nephrolepis has been studied extensively and in great detail (Heinricher 1907; Sen & Sen 1973; Nayar & Bajpai 1978).
The genus Nephrolepis was established by Schott (1834) to accommodate a number of species until then included in Aspidium, Nephrodium and Polypodium, which he distinguished on the basis of the venation pattern and soral position. The genus was quickly adopted by Presl (1836), who further diagnosed it by the presence of articulate pinnae. Presl added a number of species (including a few now no longer included in Nephrolepis), and erected the genus Leptopleuria for N. abrupta, a taxon with an aberrant soral position. The articulated pinnae were accepted as characteristic for the genus by Smith (1841, 1842), who also recognized the correct affinity of N. abrupta. The modern circumscription of Nephrolepis was attained when Smith (1857, 1866, 1875) distinguished both Nephrolepis and Arthropteris in the modern sense, using the differences in articulation and the stoloniferous habit of Nephrolepis as generic characters. Hooker (1862), mistakenly included Arthropteris palisotii (with the misapplied name N. obliterata) as a species "peculiar in the genus", and also introduced the erroneous notion that N. exaltata is a pantropical species, thus laying the groundwork for many misidentifications and the misconception that Nephrolepis is a particularly difficult genus, expressed by, e.g., Copeland (1947).
In the modern circumscription, Nephrolepis is accepted in most recent floristic and horticultural accounts, e.g., Nauman (1985, 1992), Proctor (1989), Hoshizaki & Moran (2001), Mickel & Smith (2004), Hovenkamp & Miyamoto (2005).
Basic chromosome number is 41 for all species investigated so far, and most species appear to contain diploids only, with additional tetraploids reported in two species (Löve et al. 1977; Tindale & Roy 2002): in N. hirsutula in South India (probably this record refers to N. brownii) and in N. pectinata in Jamaica. Hybridization under natural circumstances occurs occasionally (Nauman 1979), but is probably far less common than sometimes supposed; the rampant hybridity suggested by some authors can probably for a large part be explained by an incomplete understanding of the natural species. In cultivation, most of the variation being offered on the market is due to the occurrence of vegetative 'sports' (Benedict 1916) and artificial hybridization plays a minor role, if any at all.
In considering this a monogeneric family we follow the treatment in the Families and Genera of Vacular Plants (Kramer 1990). In the past, Nephrolepis was considered to be variously allied with Davallia, Oleandra and/or Arthropteris in Nephrolepidaceae, Oleandraceaea or Davalliaceaea (see Pichi Sermolli 1974 for a concise review), but both molecular phylogenies and morphological data disagree with that position. Molecular phylogenies (Hasebe et al. 1995; Liu et al. 2007; Schuettpelz & Pryer 2008) indicate separate positions for all of these genera, while morphologically, Nephrolepis is a highly distinct genus, with the unique character of the very distinctive stolons and although recent studies suggest that it should be aligned with Lomariopsis and Cyclopeltis (Smith et al. 2006) we here maintain it for the time being in its own family.

DWP publishes GMP conversion guidance: what next for trustees and employers?
United Kingdom April 25 2019
Since the High Court ruled in the Lloyds Bank case in October last year that pension benefits need to be equalised between men and women for the effect of guaranteed minimum pensions (GMPs), most pension scheme trustees have been awaiting guidance from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) on how to go about this.
The publication of DWP's guidance on 18 April 2019 is therefore an important development. However, on its own, it does not give pension schemes all the information they need in order to make substantial progress on this issue.
The DWP's guidance contains the following:
an overview of why GMP equalisation is a problem (for more detail on this, see GMP equalisation - what is the problem with equalisation and GMP equalisation - what now for trustees and employers);
a possible method to equalise GMPs, by using the GMP conversion legislation; and
some practical points and an acknowledgement that more work is still to be done by DWP and HM Revenue and Customs(HMRC).
What is the DWP's method?
The proposed method is broadly the same as that which the DWP put out to consultation in November 2016, although the description of it has been updated to take account of the Lloyds case.
In broad terms, it involves reshaping scheme benefits so that they no longer contain GMPs. For each member, an actuary can put a capital value on his or her pension. If that capital value would have been higher if the member had been of the opposite sex during the period to which GMP equalisation is relevant (17 May 1990 to 5 April 1997), then that higher value is used.
That capital value is then converted back into a pension, but of a different design which does not include a GMP.
More detail on the DWP's method is available in the first part of this Insight - DWP publishes guidance on GMP conversion: what does this mean for trustees and employers.
How does the DWP's method compare with the default method under Lloyds?
The judge in Lloyds set out a default method for equalising GMPs, which he called "Method C2". For those who are familiar with Lloyds jargon, the DWP method is equivalent to Method D2. Unlike Method C2, it can only be adopted with employer agreement.
Method C2 involves adjusting the pension continually throughout the time when it is in payment, to ensure that the amount received by the member is no less than they would have received if they had been of the opposite sex during the period from 17 May 1990 to 5 April 1997. The DWP method, with its use of conversion, avoids that complexity, because it is a one-off adjustment to benefits. However it achieves that simplicity at the cost of doing greater violence to the original benefit design that members were promised.
Although it will not be the right solution for everyone, we expect the DWP's method to be popular with many schemes and employers, because it avoids the complexities and costs of operating Method C2. The nature of the reshaping of the benefit under the DWP's method is therefore an important decision for trustees, on which legal advice will be required. Trustees will need assurance that whatever reshaping they adopt is consistent with their legal duties and safe from member challenge.
GMP conversion also creates possible opportunities to reshape benefits in a manner which facilitates the scheme's objectives more generally - again, schemes will need legal and actuarial advice on this.
Should schemes now take action to equalise GMPs?
Schemes which have a pressing reason to equalise GMPs now (for example, because they are in the process of securing benefits with an insurer) should take actuarial and legal advice on whether the DWP method is suitable and how to go about implementing it.
For schemes that do not have a pressing reason, however, it would make sense to await further developments, for the following reasons.
Adopting the DWP method may create tax issues for members. The guidance acknowledges this, and says that HMRC is considering its position on these. In the absence of a specific reason to proceed sooner, it makes sense to await comments from HMRC.
The DWP previously consulted on changes to the GMP conversion legislation to make it simpler to use. The new guidance confirms that these changes are still being considered, but gives no detail on when they may actually be implemented. Again, if there is no urgency to proceed, it makes sense to wait for those simplifications.
What should trustees be doing now?
Even if it is too soon for most schemes to begin converting GMPs, it does not follow that there is nothing that should be done now. We suggest the following actions which will be appropriate for most schemes.
First and most importantly, ensure you are speaking to your actuarial and legal advisers to agree a project plan for GMP equalisation, and have addressed the immediate issues (such as how to deal with transfer value requests).
Ensure that scheme data is ready for GMP equalisation (including completing any outstanding GMP reconciliation work).
Open a dialogue with the sponsoring employer - GMP conversion cannot be implemented without employer agreement, and the employer's views are a relevant consideration for trustees anyway.
Arrange any trustee training so that trustees are properly equipped to make decisions e.g. on whether to adopt GMP conversion in preference to Method C2, how to reshape the benefits, and how to deal with arrears due to current pensioners. Although trustees may not need to make those decisions yet, they need to understand the issues in order to be in a position to make good decisions at the appropriate time.

[. . .] " (Renshaw) design of this magnitude would be essential to the reduction of environmental pollutants. In addition a vehicle that could change shape while flying would be unprecedented. High speed transportation is just one of the many products that are being designed and will be produced in the near future by aerospace engineers.
Even though there are some very exciting things happening with aerospace engineering, the program will face some problems in the future. The most evident problem came earlier this year when the space shuttle Columbia disintegrated upon reentry. Seven astronauts were lost and questions about the safety of manned space vehicles came into question.
At the present time the NASA space shuttle program has been grounded, pending the investigation behind the loss of the space shuttle Columbia. The Columbia disaster certainly brings into question of the aerospace engineering program in the United States. In particular people question the government support of the program. Aerospace engineering can be very costly and sometimes results in the loss of human life and expensive aircraft. The government must examine the amount of support that it is offering to the aerospace program in the United States if the aerospace engineering industry is to survive into the future.
In addition to the Columbia disaster, the events of September 11, 2001 also took a toll on aerospace engineering. Many engineers found themselves out of work because Americans were afraid to fly and airlines had to lay off engineers. The layoffs and troubles with the space shuttle may lead some students to choose a different major when they enter college. The lack of interest in the field may leave companies without qualified aerospace engineers.
Recruitment is a challenge that will permeate throughout the future of the aerospace engineering program in the United States. Many students may not see any benefit to entering the field and will opt to choose another path. Organizations must began to sponsor programs that help students understand the importance of aerospace engineering and the ways in which the profession has aided in improving the everyday lives of people around the globe.
This discussion was designed to examine the field of aerospace engineering. Our investigation has shown that aerospace engineering involves the study of the design and creation of vehicles that can travel beyond the earth's atmosphere. We also found that many of the products that were created by aerospace engineers are now used as common household products. We can conclude that aerospace engineering has been an essential part of the creating the products that make our lives more convenient.
We then discussed the concepts behind the aerospace engineering team. We found that the team consists of engineers, scientists and technicians. Our research found that each group is essential to the research and development of vehicles and engineering processes. We also discovered that engineers and scientist usually work in a specific field.
Finally, we discussed the future of aerospace engineering. We explored the topics of education, new products and the challenges that aerospace engineering will face in the years to come. Educationally, we discovered that Seoul National University in South Korea has made great strides towards the security and improvement of aerospace engineering around the globe. We also found that universities in America are setting goals to ensure that aerospace engineering is properly taught.
We also took a look at the new products that are available now and some that will be available in the future. Our investigation uncovered that engineers had created a vest designed to aid pilots. We also discovered that the development of high speed transportation is just over the horizon.
Lastly, we discussed the idea the challenges facing aerospace engineering. We found that the space shuttle Columbia disaster and the events of 9/11 have greatly impacted aerospace engineering. We also found that the field may have difficulty recruiting students in the near future.

Q: $.post jquery result fill more than one field I use this jquery $.post to find some data in a form. Here my code
$.post('action.php', {name: name}, function(data){('#element_one').val(data)};

and this is ma action.php
if(isset( $_POST['name'])===true && empty($_POST['name'])===false){

$query=mysql_query("SELECT money as money FROM customer WHERE name='".mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['name']))."'");
echo (mysql_num_rows($query)!==0)? mysql_result($query, 0, 'name') : 'name not found';}

It work's perfectly if I must find the value of an input field (in this case the field with id="element_one").
Suppose now that I want to retrive more data from action.php and I'd like to fill more input field. How can archieve this?
In action php I can lunch a while but how changes the jquery code?

A: You can return a json object instead of single value in your php code and fetch it in the success function like following :
PHP code :
print_r( json_encode(array("val1", "val2")) );

JS code :
$.post('page.php', {name: name}, function(data){
     var data = JSON.parse(data);

     $('#element_one').val(data[0]); //data[0] return "val1"
     $('#element_two').val(data[1]); //data[1] return val2"
});

Hope this helps.

A: You could return a string with | separated String with different values.
Then, after success, you could split that string in different string objects like
responseText.split("|")[0];
responseText.split("|")[1];

and then you can use these values in the query.
Another way is to return your response in JSON form in key value pair .

Never one to back away from a challenge, certified legend Bryan Cranston refused to simply deliver one highly tweetable moment during his appearance on the iconic Inside the Actors Studio on Bravo. Instead, Walter White a.k.a. Dr. Tim Whatley a.k.a. Hal Wilkerson tossed in a vivid loss-of-virginity tale for good measure.
"We went to Europe for a month," Cranston recalls. "It cost us like seven or eight hundred dollars, if you don't include the prostitutes." Naturally, two of Cranston's pals (who were actually training with the Los Angeles Police Department at the time) urged a visit to Amsterdam's Red Light District. "We go to this house with a red light, which I thought was very convenient and subtle advertising."
Though young Cranston apparently didn't have quite enough money to engage in the offered services, apparently took him "to a room" anyway. Describing the encounter as both "awful and wonderful," Cranston says he nerves finally calmed once he found himself among friends again. "When I got back to the other 20 guys with the group, all 16 to 18 years old, I was good," laughs Cranston. To be fair, "awful and wonderful" is the exact wording of many tales of virginity loss.

Again, if by proof of a mathematical proposition we mean establishing its logical validity on the basis of a set of assumptions accepted as self-evident, then Pythagoras did not possess a proof of the theorem which bears his name; not because such a proof was beyond the ken of his period, but because he was temperamentally uninterested in proofs of this nature, as may readily be gleaned from the methods which he used in his numerological deductions. 10 am about to venture a conjecture, and I want to take the opportunity to emphasize that by advancing this and sundry other opinions which will appear in this work / neither invoke I 29 BEQUEST Otf THE GREEKS do not invoke authority, because documents opinion rests on imagination, and one imagination is as good or as bad as another.
Try as he might, he could not free himself of the tendency to attribute most achievements in philosophy and in mathematics to either Pythagoras or his adherents. What is more, there is little evidence that he tried to free himself of that bias. Thus, we find Thales barely mentioned in the vitiated Dialogues; as to Hippias, Hippocrates and Democritus, who had either kept aloof from the School or had openly opposed it, they were treated with contemptuous silence. In the second place, despite the vociferous claims of the ^latonists and Neoplatonists, Plato was not a mathematician, ^o Plato and his followers mathematics was largely a means to end being philosophy; they viewed the technical mathematics as a mere device for sharpening one's most as a course of training preparatory to handling the larger issues of philosophy.

Space might be the final frontier for humanity, but it is a pretty common environment for virtual reality.
You might recall a few years back that a beleaguered space exploration game, fueled by crowdfunding-hype (no, we're not talking about Star Citizen). Debuted to less-than-stellar reviews.
That title, No Man's Sky, has since improved upon its initial outing with subsequent updates that have not only expanded the core gameplay but also improved the way it runs as well as expanding gameplay options.
And a recent addition might just be enough to get VR fanatics to pick up a copy of No Man's Sky: Developer Hello Games added a virtual reality mode to the game to allow players to explore NMS's acid neon-drenched landscapes in full, immersive 3D.
Discussed during Sony's PlayStation State of Play update, the No Man's Sky addition could expand the audience for a game that is starting to gather a bit of dust as it ages.
Sure, those gamers that love the game have stuck around since the beginning, but we have to face the fact that it was definitely hampered by missed expectations when it first came out.
Perhaps VR could be just the thing to get No Man's Sky back on the radar.
At least, that is probably what is hoped.
Like we said earlier, there isn't a lack of space-based VR games, but No Man's Sky does have something that many of them lack.
That is a sense of depth and exploration that can only come from a mainline title.
All of this is part of Hello Games "No Man's Sky Beyond" project of bringing major updates to the game – free of charge.
A lot of these changes have had a massively positive impact on No Man's Sky, too.
Though it was initially forced to weather a rough release, it has since gone on to become a pretty solid game in nearly every respect. People who derided it at launch have since changed their tunes considerably.
A timeline for the VR update's release has it pegged for sometime this summer. It will be coming to Steam and PSVR.
Hello Games' Sean Murray described the update's implementation in organic terms, stating that the VR mode will be a mere enhancement of the first-person view, not an entirely separate game.
As we said, all of the updates will be free and No Man's Sky is currently available if you'd like to give it a try in the traditional format.

La gare de Lure est une gare ferroviaire française de la ligne de Paris-Est à Mulhouse-Ville, située sur le territoire de la commune de Lure, sous-préfecture du département de la Haute-Saône, en région Bourgogne-Franche-Comté.

Elle est mise en service en 1858, par la Compagnie des chemins de fer de l'Est. Lure a possédé quatre gares distinctes, mais à des époques différentes ; seulement trois gares fonctionnèrent en même temps.

C'est une gare de la Société nationale des chemins de fer français (SNCF), desservie par des trains TER Bourgogne-Franche-Comté et TER Grand Est.

Situation ferroviaire
La gare de bifurcation de Lure est située au point kilométrique (PK) 410,969 de la ligne de Paris-Est à Mulhouse-Ville, entre les gares ouvertes de Vesoul et de Ronchamp, au PK 126,696 de la ligne de Blainville - Damelevières à Lure et au PK 485,349 de la ligne de Montbozon à Lure fermée au service des voyageurs. Son altitude est de .

Histoire

La station de Lure est mise en service le 26 avril 1858 par la Compagnie des chemins de fer de l'Est, lorsqu'elle ouvre à l'exploitation la section de Vesoul à Belfort qui permet l'ouverture de la totalité de sa ligne de Paris à Mulhouse.

La ville a participé au financement et légué gratuitement 90 ares de terrains, malgré quelques refus notamment celui d'une famille bourgeoise qui stoppa provisoirement le projet. Ce terrain fut échangé le . La gare fut dotée d'un télégraphe à usage exclusivement professionnel. À l'époque, la gare n'était qu'un groupe de plusieurs bâtiments et d'un réservoir à eau pour les locomotives à vapeur.

Avec le succès du rail en France, tant pour le nombre de voyageurs que la quantité de marchandises transportée, la gare atteint ses limites. Il fut alors décidé d'un premier agrandissement en avril 1876. Les travaux dureront se 1878 à 1879. Parmi les nouveautés, on peut citer la présence de WC, d'une lampisterie, d'une passerelle et d'un foyer pour cheminots, sur deux étages, de  sur . Il servait comme hôtel, pour héberger, nourrir et proposer des lavabos aux équipes de relais et aux équipes présentes sur les trains qui, à l'époque, étaient beaucoup plus lents.

Malgré tous ces aménagements, la gare est toujours insuffisante en matière de capacités, de taille et de rendement. Des projets seront étudiés, et de nouveaux travaux seront exécutés en 1905. En 1910, la gare est rasée pour laisser la place à un plus grand complexe. Le bâtiment principal, le seul subsistant, sera très agrandi et remis à neuf. Il mesure une cinquantaine de mètres de longueur pour une quinzaine de mètres de largeur. La gare possède trois quais pour les voyageurs, soit un de plus. Les voies de manœuvre passent de 7 à 21. La gare fonctionne à plein rendement, ce qui rend la région économiquement prospère. Cent vingt cheminots y travaillent. Un nouveau château d'eau encore plus grand est en place.

Elle a été la cible de quelques bombes durant la Première Guerre mondiale et a participé à l'acheminement du matériel militaire allemand lorsque Lure a été envahie pendant la Deuxième Guerre mondiale.

D'innombrables sabotages ont eu lieu dans la Haute-Saône et dans la Franche-Comté ; plusieurs ponts ont été détruits et de multiples déraillements ont eu lieu. À Lure, peu de choses se sont passées pendant la guerre. Le 22 septembre 1941, une voie a été détruite par une explosion. Un autre sabotage visant une grue a échoué. Un train a été envoyé sans aucune personne à bord, mais il a été arrêté quelques dizaines de kilomètres plus loin. Trois employés ont été abattus par les Allemands : Louis Girard (auxiliaire), Marcel Vienot (homme d'équipage) et Jean Didier (auxiliaire). Ils n'étaient pas les seuls dans ce cas.

Pendant les années 1990, le château d'eau est retiré, et un parking fait face à la gare. Un arrêt de bus des lignes saônoises se trouve devant la gare.

La ville de Lure n'a pas toujours eu qu'un réseau de chemin de fer. Elle disposait également d'un tramway interurbain, dont le parcours commençait en gare de Lure, passait par le Mont Châtel, et continuait sa route sur plusieurs kilomètres. Il s'agissait des Chemins de fer vicinaux de la Haute-Saône. En 1910, lors de l'apogée du trafic, pas moins de 18 trains entraient et sortaient de la gare.

En 2016, selon les estimations de la SNCF, la fréquentation annuelle de la gare est de , ce nombre s'étant élevé à  en 2015 et à  en 2014.

agreement to cut spending by $1.2 trillion is not surprising.
lower the deficit. There's a simple problem with that approach: our country does not have a revenue problem; we have a spending problem.
Our government's addiction to runaway spending was just made crystal clear by the announcement that our national debt has topped $15 trillion.
"Over the next ten years, our nation is projected to spend $10.3 trillion on welfare spending, and with Obamacare expected to cost between $1.5 trillion and $2.5 trillion during the same time period, our debt will only continue to grow if we do not quickly reform our entitlement state. That is why I have joined with my Senate colleagues in supporting legislative measures that would reform our welfare entitlement programs and repeal Obamacare. Together, that could save well over $2.4 trillion in ten years. If we really want to cut our deficits and balance our budget – which is something we must do – then we should start by implementing these reforms and start the tough work of responsibly reforming Medicare and Social Security, which are on unsustainable paths as currently structured.
"We didn't need a Super Committee in the first place, because it should be up to Congress to make these tough decisions. Now that the Super Committee has failed, we're faced with the possibility of automatic defense cuts that will threaten our national security in the near term and beyond. If implemented, the budget cuts would translate into real and unsustainable reductions to our military's size and capability. To avoid these painful, long term consequences, which will have a lasting impact for decades, we must reduce the size and trajectory of our entitlement state. I will continue to work with my colleagues to ensure that our budget is balanced without crippling our economy or our defense capabilities. Defense spending did not get us into our current fiscal crisis. Years of living without a balanced budget, endless bailouts, failed stimulus programs, and runaway entitlement spending are to blame. We already ask our nation's fighting forces to pay a heavy price to defend our freedom while having billions in budget cuts. It is morally wrong for us to ask them to pay an even higher price to get us out of a mess they didn't create."

GUNYAMA
Our design celebrates and acknowledges the traditional custodians of this land the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation and its Elders past and present to the benefit of the local community ensuring engagement and inclusion of all.
Gunyama is an Aboriginal word meaning "wind from the southwest" which is reflective of the microclimate of the area. This environmental aerodynamic is another key influence on the projects goal to ensuring that the elements of earth, air and water are all integrated seamlessly into the artistry and sustainability of the design.
The building design is inspired by the shape of two linked boomerangs. The first, with a solar panel lined roof that will shimmer like the scales of a fish, under which the aquatic centre is housed. It's ceiling will have a pearl like finish, mirroring the Sydney rock oyster.
The second, which houses the Arts Hub, has a green roof incorporating and reintroducing local indigenous plant species to the area to attract native birds and insects. It's ceiling is of local timber, reinforcing the element of the boomerang in the interior.
Storm water from both boomerangs will be captured and harvested for landscape irrigation and sewage systems.
Both boomerangs will appear suspended, as the angled external walls are predominantly glass. A sculptural metal façade on the southern side of the aquatic centre represents a shield protecting the structure from the southerly winds. The artistic curved poles around the structure symbolize water pathways. The three transparent curved feature poles adjacent to the entrance will be used as visual water storage tanks.
The external swimming pools nestle between the two boomerangs like waterholes protected from the elements. The landscaping throughout the site incorporates the Aboriginal iconography in its design, in particular the symbols for meeting places in the outdoor spaces.
Gunyama Park incorporates a full size synthetic sports field, and recreation park.
Underneath the raised grass spectator area of the sports field are amenities including café, change rooms, public toilets, and storage areas, all of which are incorporated within converted recycled shipping containers.
The recreation park will feature BBQ/picnic areas, Fitness Park and a dedicated skate park, all which are linked by a series of joint cycle and pedestrian pathways. Dotted with rest stations and bubblers, these pathways lead to the entrance of the aquatic centre and a proposed pedestrian/cycle bridge over Joynton Avenue to the new Library precinct.
An inclusive approach to accessibility across the diversity of requirements of people with disabilities is incorporated in every aspect of the design.
Environmental sustainability is intrinsic in many of the physical features of the design, but equally important is social sustainability and accountability. What will truly give life to the structure is a design that will encourage and support a sense of community is itself. We feel that this is what is at the very heart of our design.


Techniques for the 3-D analysis of facial shape changes resulting from growth or surgical treatment have recently been proposed. These approaches rely on manual intervention for placing anatomical landmarks on 3-D facial models which is time consuming and error prone. In this paper, an automated approach to landmark extraction is described which uses a stereo-assisted active shape model. A landmark-based statistical analysis of facial shape change is then carried out using procrustes registration, principal component analysis and thin plate spline warping. The proposed method is validated both statistically and visually by characterizing shape changes induced by mandibular repositioning in a cross-sample of 20 orthodontic patients. It is shown that the method is capable of distinguishing between changes in facial morphology due to mandibular repositioning and changes due to other factors such as growth and normal variation within the patient sample.

2006 Amsterdam Admirals Season

The 2006 Amsterdam Admirals season was the 12th season for the team in the NFL Europe League.
The 2006 season of the Amsterdam Admirals started off full of hope. The previous season headcoach Bart Andrus and his team had managed to lay their hands on the coveted World Bowl trophee - for the first time in the Admirals' history - after beating Berlin Thunder 27 to 21 in World Bowl XIII. Furthermore, Gibran Hamdan had returned as starting quarterback after being injured halfway the 2005 season, ready to be the focal point of a passing offense.
After an initial loss in week 1 to their World Bowl XIII opponent Berlin Thunder, quarterback Gibran Hamdan, together with key players such as wide receivers Skyler Fulton, Noriaki Kinoshita, Chad Lucas and special teams players Glenn Pakulak and Ryan Killeen, led the Admirals to 6 straight wins before suffering two broken ankles in week 7 against the Hamburg Sea Devils. After that the well-oiled Admirals offense lost steam when second-string quarterback Jared Allen took over. Despite this, Allen and his team managed to defeat the 2006 NFLE league number two team Frankfurt Galaxy in week 9 on Galaxy home soil, resulting in the Amsterdam Admirals clinching their World Bowl berth.
Finally the Admirals met Frankfurt Galaxy again in week 11 in Düsseldorf in LTU Arena, the spot of World Bowl XIII. The hope from beating Galaxy in week 9, however, quickly dissipated when it became clear that the Admirals' offensive line without Hamdan was no match...

Star Wars: Mark Hamill thought Luke should have turned evil
Posted by The US Asian Post | Oct 22, 2015 | Entertainment, Videos | 0
Should Luke Skywalker have turned to the Dark Side? Actor Mark Hamill poses with Dark Vader
©AFP PHOTO / MIGUEL MEDINA
(Relaxnews) – Ten-year-old archive footage shows Luke Skywalker actor Mark Hamill dropping some character development knowledge in front of his future director J.J. Abrams; curious fans are now asking whether that could have influenced the storyline of December's "Star Wars: The Force Awakens."
Hosting the penultimate episode of chat show "Dinner for Five" was Kevin Smith, director of "Clerks" and partial "Star Wars" homage "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back"; among his guests were director J.J. Abrams, who had "Mission: Impossible III" in production, and Mark Hamill, observed Vulture.
Now fans are asking whether Hamill planted a seed in Abrams' mind that day, years before the up-and-coming creative was brought on board to craft "Star Wars"' future.
He'd wanted Luke Skywalker to turn evil in the franchise's third film — "full bore Dark Side," as Smith put it — and pitched the idea to "Star Wars" creator George Lucas.
"As an actor, that would be more fun to play," he explained. "When we finished [Episode II], I figured that's what will be the pivotal moment."
"I'll have Han Solo in my crosshairs, and I'll be about to kill him, or the Princess, or somebody that we care about."
Instead, that story arc formed the basis for Lucas's less well-received prequel trilogy, which had recently concluded at the time of the "Dinner for Five" episode, charting the transition of Anakin Skywalker from Jedi apprentice to Luke's father and nemesis, Darth Vader.
With questions surrounding Luke Skywalker's fate in "The Force Awakens," releasing December 18, fans are asking whether this discussion influenced Abrams' creative approach.
Hamill is known to be involved in the film, but his character has been conspicuously absent from promotional art and on-set photography.
A cloaked individual with robotic arm can be glimpsed in the trailer, and many have been comfortable assuming that character is Luke.
But thanks to clever editing, and like so many other details of the film, no one really knows for sure.
So, they say, perhaps Abrams took Hamill's idea and worked it into his new treatment. Perhaps Luke really has gone to the Dark Side.
Or perhaps it was the possibility that intrigued Abrams more than the act itself, sparking off new story ideas, and driving the wonderfully ambiguous teasers we have now.
After all, Luke believed there was still good in Darth Vader. Perhaps there still is.

Sometimes a dress stands out simply because it is beautiful. And sometimes, it stands out because the person who made said dress makes it shine with her inner beauty. That, in essence, is why the dress Kyemah McEntyre made herself and wore to her prom is so stunning.
Related story Amy Schumer's Honest New Swimsuit Photo Details Months of Medical Treatment — & Liposuction
Eighteen-year-old Kyemah McEntyre is a senior at Cecily Tyson School of Performing Arts in East Orange, New Jersey, so it would make sense that she'd have a knack for the creative. However, the dress that she ended up designing and creating herself goes several levels above creativity — it makes a bold statement about what effect she as an artist and a person wants to have on the world.

Through her dress (and her Instagram page), she eloquently shows and tells her peers to embrace what makes them different and to not be afraid of going against stereotypes. In her own words, "Throughout the world, we have people who do not notice each others essence and humanity. We Stunt our collective spiritual growth by allowing assumptions and stereotypes to cloud our mind and thus our physical reality[…]I believe that in order for society to gain a wider horizon, we have to be willing to acknowledge other people from differences, beliefs, morals, and values (sic)." The result of Kyemah McEntyre embracing her roots and personal identity is the definition of beauty and grace.

Naturally, she won prom (as well as the internet), and her date is now considered the luckiest senior on the planet. Kyemah has already been accepted to Parsons School of Design in the fall, arguably the best design school in the country, where she'll no doubt make a huge splash. From there, I see her taking over the fashion world, one ridiculously fierce outfit at a time.
It's quite something to see a girl elected prom queen who is so freaking beautiful on the inside and out, but that's what makes these rare moments and people so wonderful. No doubt her insightful, heartfelt words will inspire others to follow suit.
"I would like to take this moment to say that you have to understand who you are because if you leave that space open, you leave your identity in the hands of society. Don't let anyone define you. Beautiful things happen when you take pride in yourself." You go, Kyemah. Can't wait to see the great things you're sure to do in this world.

This will be a short blog posting, but I have spent months if not years trying to figure out just how to get SAP HANA XS Advanced to support an environment with multiple DNS alias used for the host name or in various URLs.
The problem with SAP HANA XSA (routing_mode = ports) is that out of the box, it only supports the URL that you specified during XSA installation. If your clients are using a URL where the FQDN does not match, the XSA controler and UAA security server will deny access all day long. Error 500 or unavailable are common error messages when trying to logon to XSA apps.
Assuming you have DNS configured properly, the solution is simple.
Establish a default FQDN that works both inside and outside the organization. You can specify this during the install or in the xscontroler.ini -> communication api_url and default_domain setting.
Make sure you can logon to the XSA apps before going further.
If you have DNS CNAME alias, add them (comma separated) to the xsuaaserver.ini -> uaa.yml -> zones.internal.hostnames setting. The domain listed here will be accepted in the host header and allowed by the UAA server.
The UAA server, out of the box, will only accept request where the default xs controller FQDN matches. Use the zones.internal.hostnames to white-list additional DNS alias for the environment.


Stargardt disease is a form of juvenile macular dystrophy and is a rare inherited condition causing loss of central vision.
Stargardt disease is a rare inherited condition affecting one in 8,000 to 10,000 people. In Stargardt's the light-sensitive layer of cells in the macular region of the eye degenerate. The macular is the area at the back of the eye which is responsible for the fine detailed vision necessary for activities such as watching TV and reading.
Whilst people with Stargardt's do not lose their peripheral (side) vision, many people will reach the point of severe vision loss.
The most common cause of the condition is genetic. There are three genes which have been associated with Stargardt's: ELOVL4, PROM1 and ABCA4.
UV-blocking sunglasses can offer some protection for remaining vision. At the moment, Stargardt's is untreatable.
A number of novel interventions are currently under investigation, including stem cell therapies. Stem cells are a special type of cell which, when put under the right conditions, can develop into many other types of cell including those found in the macular. It is hoped that new cells derived from stem cells can be grown in a laboratory to be transplanted into the eye to replace areas of dead or non-functioning cells. Stem cells can be sourced from a number of places including blood, bone marrow, umbilical cord and fertilized egg cells.
Researchers are involved in Europe's first ongoing stem cell trial for Stargardt's. More research will need to be undertaken in the future to determine to what extent stem cell therapy might help improve vision for people with Stargardt's.

The colorful characters of illustration design on 99
by	Kaitlyn Ellison
Ask any designer or illustrator: character illustration is not easy.
It's all about finding a way to capture that "je ne sais quoi" that makes someone unique, and showing it off only through imagery. It's a complicated task that requires the combination of lots of techniques. Design style, facial and body expressions, color, clothing – a lot of factors to consider.
It's something that these 99designs users have gotten right. Each character has it's own style and personality – each is unique and definitely functional.
The All-American Indian Girl by m.sc is a great example of design problem-solving. The design is simple, clean and bright with the perfect sparkle in her eye and upraised eyebrow to indicate the feisty character the CH wanted.
The CH also specifically requests a white background for this image and m.sc delivers it in a fantastic creative way, blending the character's dress into the background so that they can cleanly depict only the top half of her body, helping place more attention on her face.
Designer dorarpolhendra finds a way to bring fun to a pediatric dental illustration with his superhero version of the Cavity Cops. Friendly faces and bold colors appeal to the young audience this dentist wants to target – kids.
And it's all about the details: check out their tooth-belts and toothbrush tools, there's no doubt that these superheros will bring fun to taking care of teeth.
The CH from Turned on Digital was looking for line-drawn illustrations of the company's employees. In her simple and sophisticated winning design, Bashango captures the perfect balance between hand-drawn and graphically polished.
He gives each person their own unique look but keeps them similar enough to be consistent, so they look great as a group.
Estefanía Sanz had the task of creating "Vivi," a cute and bubbly videohost targeted towards women. With a hint of vintage TV classic Bewitched, the designer captures the character's feminine charm by using bright colors and a nostalgic design style.
Do you have other favorite character designs? Please share.

He has also been a board member for several years, serving as Chair of the Membership Committee, Vice President, and is currently the Chair of the Finance Committee and Treasurer.
Dr. Frank Navin - Frank's work in Road Safety started when he took over Transport Canada's Road Safety Research team for British Columbia over 40 years ago. Much of this research focused on civil and traffic engineering aspects of highway operations. His work at UBC has supported police road safety programs and involved full scale vehicle collision and dynamic experiments. Many of the vehicle experiments took place in cooperation with provincial ministries, policing as well as the University of North Florida.
As an Professional Engineer and Professor Frank has been involved in many different vehicle testing environments. His work has involved truck and car breaking experiments, static testing for rollovers including fully loaded tractor trailers, proof testing road side barriers, winter traction tests for cars and trucks, steep down hill breaking tests using different salt/sand mixes on the roadway and vehicle cornering tests to name a few.
Frank has published many papers over his career and has received numerous prestigious awards. The program he was responsible for produced eight PHD's and 16 masters's degree graduates, all with a focus on road safety. Frank also helped start ICBC's Road improvement Program, and his work has also included experiments in Traffic conflicts, implementing municipal safety improvements and conducting the first Canadian road safety audit on Highway 1. Frank was also a member of the Ontario professional Engineers Highway 407 Safety Review Team.
Frank has been a long time CARSP member and has presented 17 papers CARSP Conferences across Canada. He has been a member of the CARSP board for several years and chaired the 7th annual meeting held in Vancouver.

Manziel: Height matters; Browns coaches: No it doesn't
By | FoxSports
CINCINNATI, OH - NOVEMBER 5: Johnny Manziel #2 of the Cleveland Browns warms up prior to the start of the game against the Cincinnati Bengals at Paul Brown Stadium on November 5, 2015 in Cincinnati, Ohio. (Photo by Andy Lyons/Getty Images)
Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel can't use his height as an excuse for missing open receivers. Andy Lyons Andy Lyons/Getty Images
If Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel is selling his lack of height as a reason for his lack of progress, his coaches aren't buying.
A day after Manziel said he has had trouble seeing open receivers because of his shorter 6-foot stature, head coach Mike Pettine and offensive coordinator John DeFilippo said height, or lack thereof, is no excuse.
"There's other quarterbacks in this league that are his size and are having some success," DeFilippo said per ESPN.com.
Manziel conceded that he took off running prematurely instead of hitting open receivers several times in his start last Thursday in Cincinnati. The tall defensive ends for the Bengals -- Carlos Dunlap (6-foot-6) and Michael Johnson (6-foot-7) had something to do with that.
"I'm not going to be able to sit there like some of these taller quarterbacks in the league and just be able to see everything happen as it plays on," Manziel said. "I'm going to have to make a faith throw, knowing that, hey, this guy's here and this guy went there."
Pettine cited stars Drew Brees (also listed at 6-foot) and Russell Wilson (5-foot-11) as quarterbacks who have overcome physical limitations.
"Any quarterback who's in that position has to learn it," Pettine said. "Sometimes the only way to learn it is the live reps and get a sense of the game, and when you get a chance to get to the film and say, 'Wow, that guy is wide-open and I didn't see him.'"

Java Geology and Evolution
Neogene Java
Neogene Basin Evolution in a Volcanic Arc Setting
Lanu Cross, completed PhD project
The volcanic island of Java is located within the Indonesian archipelago at the Eurasian margin. To the south of Java there has been subduction of the Indo-Australian Plate beneath the Eurasian Plate along the Java Trench since the Middle Eocene. During the Middle Miocene there was a lull in volcanism followed by a Late Miocene renewal of activity along the axis of the modern arc. Contemporaneous with, or after, this resumption of volcanism the basins and the ancient arc were deformed and became elevated. The timing and cause of this deformation event is poorly constrained and not well understood. This study will involve the examination of the sedimentary and volcanic rocks deposited during the Neogene to better understand the timing and nature of deformation.
Java contains the products of ancient (Eocene-Miocene) and young volcanism (Late Miocene-Present). In addition to the volcanic rocks there are a number of sedimentary basins on and around Java, several of which contain abundant hydrocarbons. These basins developed above an accreted basement, in a variety of settings, during the Early Cenozoic and contain thick sequences of carbonate, siliciclastic, volcaniclastic and volcanic rocks. A volcanic arc was active throughout the Eocene to Early Miocene and provided abundant sediment to the basins. In addition, in West Java sediment was transported from the north by major rivers.
During the Neogene several events are postulated to have occurred that have shaped Java. The focus of volcanism shifted ~50 km north from its Paleogene position, and the old arc itself has been tilted and deformed. Large scale, possibly island wide compression has led to the uplift and inversion of the palaeo-depocentres to the north of the old island arc, forming new topographic highs. The East Java Basin in now a succession of anticlinoria as a result of this compression and rocks in West Java have been thrust northwards.
This event/succession of events are poorly constrained, primarily because of the lack of accurate chronostratigraphic data. Much of the sediment generated during these tectonic events contains abundant reworked material, meaning that chemical and biostratigraphical analyses often yield conflicting results. This project aims to acquire new stratigraphic and structural information from fieldwork in Java, integrated with existing information, in order to develop a viable and chronologically accurate model for the tectonic evolution of Java during the Neogene. It aims to build upon the previous studies by the SE Asia Research Group in order to develop a clearer understanding of the tectonic factors that have shaped Java and the surrounding regions between the Miocene and Recent.

Investing in the driverless car future
Analysis, Business
When will the driverless car become reality?
We know that driverless cars are the future. What we don't know for sure, however, is when that future will arrive. The most recent entrant into this exciting field is Cruise Automation, a startup based in San Francisco.
Cruise Automation will be testing its aftermarket automated highway driving kit in early 2015. For those who drive an Audi A4 or S4 and want to fork out $10,000, you could be one of the first to be able to read a book or safely check email while driving on the highway without paying any attention to where you're going.
Cruise is a very young company, founded in late 2013, so we should be a bit skeptical of its claims until a longer track record has been established.
Other companies are, however, making similarly bold announcements. Tesla's Elon Musk stated in early June, "I am confident that in less than a year you will be able to go from highway on-ramp to highway exits without touching any controls." This is a far cry from fully automated driving but it's a major improvement nonetheless. I look forward to taking long road trips and napping liberally as my car transports my snoring self safely down the road at 75 miles an hour.
Google, another major player in the driverless-car arena, surprised a lot of people by shifting its approach to cars with little human intervention. Rather than focus on humans as co-pilots in normal cars fitted with sensors, Google's revamped approach to the driverless car future now focuses more modestly on specially designed buggy cars that have very limited human controls. This is because Google has found that human co-pilots test driving its fleet of Lexus SUVs outfitted with sensors and automated controls shifted very quickly from disbelief and suspicion that computers could drive a car safely, to overconfidence in the computer's ability — and thus a tendency to check out as a co-driver. This, Google believes, isn't a safe option for cars that are intended to have an alert human co-pilot ready to step in if needed.
Google's new specially designed cars are like marshmallows on wheels, complete with a cute face on the front. Politico's Ben White expressed his concern about Google's new approach, saying, "Does no one else get that if you were going to design a soulless killing machine it would look exactly like this?"
Anyway, even if driverless cars are still years away, as may well be the case (particularly for fully automated cars), it is certainly not too early to think about how we can profit from this utopian future.
But first, I need to address the possible dystopian future. IEEE projects that up to 75 percent of vehicles in the U.S. will be fully automated by 2040, so this isn't entirely a pipe dream. Some have already expressed concerns about a potential increase in driving from driverless cars making it so easy to take those long road trips that greenhouse gas emissions and other types of pollution increase. We can't ignore this possibility, but my feeling is that any increase in driving by those fortunate enough to have a driverless car will be far outweighed by the increased fuel efficiency that comes with non-human drivers at the helm. And when we consider the very substantial reduction in traffic accidents that will likely occur by getting human drivers out of the driver's seat, it seems pretty clear that the net benefits of driverless cars will be positive.
What follows are my suggestions on how to benefit financially from this major new trend, following up on my recent article looking at how to invest in the renewable energy future. As in my previous piece, my suggestions here are not to be considered any kind of official financial advice. Rather, consider them to be peer-to-peer tips.
Google is perhaps the most obvious company to invest in when it comes to driverless cars. A major benefit of investing in Google is that it comes with a wide array of other technologies and revenue streams, diversifying the risk of a focus solely on driverless cars. Many analysts think Google has plenty of room to grow still. And if the driverless car future takes off in the next few years, it's very likely that Google will be a major player. Google has announced plans to have 100 of its driverless cars on roads in 2015. Is the future here yet?
Tesla is another good — albeit risky — option for investing in the driverless car future, simply because Musk and company have demonstrated the ability to execute and deliver very impressive products. Musk, as mentioned, has projected automated highway driving in Tesla vehicles by the end of the year, and pending legal issues in various states, it looks promising for Tesla's vehicles to have additional automated driving features steadily added in new models or via software updates. (I haven't focused on legal issues here, but suffice it to say, California and a handful of other states have recently passed laws allowing automated driving to some degree, and it seems likely that other states will follow suit before long).
Nissan is the most advanced of the majors when it comes to electric vehicles, based on its increasingly popular electric vehicle, the Leaf. Nissan has announced its intent to offer driverless cars by 2020. This is still a ways out, and will likely be delayed, but, again, I'm talking about investing in this article, not trading. And due to its vehicle diversity and size, investing in Nissan is a lot less risky than investing in Tesla.
Investing in lithium stocks is a good way to take advantage of the coming boom in electric vehicles. Driverless cars are related, but of course independent of the propulsion technology used in the vehicle. However, it seems to me that electric vehicles are a natural fit for automated driving features because people who purchase electric vehicles are likely to inherently be more drawn to new technology, and it should be an easier sell to convince people to give the automated driving option a whirl. The lithium ETF LIT is, accordingly, a reasonable bet on the future of driverless cars, as well as electric vehicles and energy storage more generally.
I haven't been able to find any exchange-traded funds for the driverless car future. ETFs are a good way to mitigate risk because they enable investments in a basket of related stocks. It's quite likely that one or more ETFs for the driverless car future will appear in the next year or so, and it might behoove farsighted investors to wait until that happens before diving into this space.
Thinking a bit more broadly about how society will be transformed by automated vehicles, it seems that the time-honored investment option of shorting certain companies or sectors may also be a good way to invest in this future.
If automated driving does take off, it's quite likely that accident rates will dip sharply because computers are so much better at driving than humans are. This gives rise to the possibility of shorting insurance companies in the long term. Or shorting airlines as people increasingly turn to their automated cars for making longer trips. These last ideas are very speculative, so please take them with a big grain of salt.
In all likelihood, the driverless car future will take many years — at least a couple of decades — to materialize in a way that really transforms our society. But the point of investing is to identify long-term significant trends and get ahead of the market.

Italo Svevo, pseudonym for Ettore Schmitz (født 19. december 1861, død 13. september 1928) var en italiensk forfatter, som i begyndelsen af 1900-tallet blev anset for at være en af de mest betydningsfulde indenfor sit felt.

Svevo levede en stor del af sit liv i Trieste og havde i lang tid problemer med at blive accepteret som forfatter, hvorfor han længe blandt andet måtte arbejde som bankfuldmægtig. Først i midten af 1920'erne blev han anerkendt, ikke mindst takket være støtte fra Eugenio Montale og James Joyce.
