Abstract:
AbstractA method of infrared (IR) analysis for quantitative determination of tubular halloysite in mixtures with kaolinite was investigated for drill hole samples collected during an assessment of paper-coating kaolin resources at the Mount Hope Kaolin Deposit, Eyre Peninsula, South Australia. Tubular, dehydrated halloysite from the deposit does not readily intercalate formamide, and the proportion of tubes in <2 μm size-fractions was determined initially from scanning electron micrographs. For samples showing a range of tube contents, a strong correlation between IR spectral response and counts of halloysite tubes was established using partial leastsquares analysis. This provided a rapid technique suitable for routine determination of tubular halloysite in samples from the Mount Hope deposit. Although the universality of the method remains to be tested, it offers an alternative approach to other analytical techniques for assessment of kaolin deposits where the presence of halloysite is suspected.

Abstract:
In June 2012 representatives from the Royal College of Surgeons of England (RCS) travelled to the Caribbean island of Trinidad to convene a Basic Surgical Skills (BSS) workshop. This was conducted in conjunction with the Department of Surgical Sciences, part of the University of the West Indies. The workshop was held at Mount Hope Women's Hospital, Port of Spain. This is one of Trinidad's largest tertiary hospitals, housing 340 general purpose beds with a large-volume acute intake. Discussions with local residents revealed that during a 24-hour period at Mount Hope, it is not uncommon to perform multiple emergency laparotomies for penetrating abdominal trauma in the form of gunshot and stabbing. Caribbean junior surgical trainees therefore develop confidence in managing these challenging cases at an early stage in their training.

Abstract:
The Darwin Glacier region is located between the Carlyon and Darwin glaciers in southern Victoria Land, Antarctica (Fig. 1). Previous work on Ross Orogeny granitoids of the Darwin Glacier region is mutually conflicting. Haskell et al. (1965) mapped three plutons, the Carlyon Granodiorite, Mount Rich Granite and Hope Granite, Felder & Faure (1990) did not recognise the Hope Granite, and Encarnación & Grunow (1996) interpreted the entire area as underlain by a single intrusion, the Brown Hills pluton. Fieldwork during the 2000 field season and subsequent geochemical and geochronological analysis described here indicates the presence of three distinctive granitic suites, emplaced during Cambrian times. These include the Foggy Dog Granite (FDG) suite, the Darwin calcic suite and the Cooper Granodiorite.

Abstract:
The eruption of Mount Sinabung in Tanah Karo, North Sumatera, which occurred in November 2013 has caused some people to evacuate to avoid the risk of greater disaster. The eruption produced psychological impacts not only on the parents but also on the children, due to the disruption of life activities, radical life changes and living with other citizens, in unknown length of time. Based on the situation, the Faculty of Psychology, University of Sumatra Utara as part of the USU’s Sinabung Task Force took the initiative to serve the people affected by the eruption of Sinabung, especially the children in the form of Psychosocial Support for Children Victims of Sinabung Eruption activities. The activities performed was psychoeducation and psychological assistance. Psychoeducation assistance was provided in the form of training for trainers (TOT) for 15 people from community cadres in Sinabung, while child psychological assistance was done in the form of trauma healing activity in 250 children in evacuation. This services resulted in cadres and children getting their spirits back to focus on the purpose of life they must achieve with their current limitations, more calm, less stress level, more excited, and feel motivated to go back to life with hope for a better future still exist.

Abstract:
In The Culture of Sectarianism: Community, History, and Violence in Ottoman Lebanon, Ussama Makdisi focuses on sectarianism as the defining experience in modern Mount Lebanon—indeed, as the core of Lebanese modernity itself. This work is a meticulous deconstruction of sectarianism as a discourse spawned by a particular historic conjecture—Ottoman reform in the age of European domination—in and around the tiny peripheral society of 19th-century Mount Lebanon. It is also an impassioned insistence not only on the historic but also the moral urgency of recognizing the contingency of, and the human agency in, the emergence of sectarianism and an invitation for hope in a Lebanese future that might yet dare to embrace an alternative modernity. Makdisi's book is not only illuminated by the scholar's insight; it is also animated by empathy for his subject matter and a talent that brings local society and its mountainous vistas vividly to the mind's eye.

Abstract:
The Letter to the Hebrews develops a theological topography in which conventional biblical goods are desanctified by means of christological reorientation. The ‘land of promise’ (11.9), the promised rest, the sanctuary of the first covenant, Mount Sinai, are left behind in the shadows of earth whereas all light is shed upon their counterparts in God's heavenly realm, which turns out to be the faithful's true fatherland. This theocentric transformation is ascribable to the author's radical interpretation of επαγγελια: any earthbound hope will look vague because with Christ's ‘new and living way’ (10.20) promise has come to be bright.

Abstract:
This article challenges the presumed benevolence of mixed-income public housing redevelopment, focusing on the first socially-mixed remake of public housing in Canada, at Toronto’s Don Mount Court (now called ‘Rivertowne’). Between 2002 and 2012 the community was demolished and replaced with a re-designed ‘New Urbanist’ landscape, including replacement of public housing (232 units) and 187 new condominium townhouses. While mixed redevelopment is premised on the hope that tenants will benefit from improved design and mixed-income interactions, this research finds that many residents were less satisfied with the quality of their housing, neighbourhood design, and social community post-redevelopment. Drawing on in-depth qualitative interviews and ethnographic participant observation, this article finds that tenant interviewees missed their older, more spacious homes in the former Don Mount, and were upset to find that positive community bonds were dismantled by relocation and redevelopment. Challenging the ‘myth of the benevolent middle class’ at the heart of social mix policy, many residents reported charged social relations in the new Rivertowne. In addition, the neo-traditional redesign of the community – intended to promote safety and inclusivity – had paradoxical impacts. Many tenants felt less safe than in their modernist-style public housing, and the mutual surveillance enabled by New Urbanist redesign fostered tense community relations. These findings serve as a strong caution for cities and public housing authorities considering mixed redevelopment, and call into question the wisdom of funding welfare state provisions with profits from real estate development.

Full text
Abstract:
Whitewash when read through affect is a site of fleeting documentation, a temporary archive of becoming, an ephemeral glimpse into what might become, different. By reading slowly and carefully the work of contemporary artists Yto Barrada and Hassan Darsi, this article hopes to show how their attention to whitewash in urban Morocco is about registering and producing a moment of as-yet-unrealized possibility and potential ontological transformation. From the creation of potemkin worlds for passing dignitaries to the presentation of a worker's body slowly whitewashing a decaying building in a neoliberal authoritarian city, Barrada and Darsi document whitewash as the space where, and the moment when, intended and unintended affects gather in regime-produced conditions of being. Barrada and Darsi harness these affects to produce a platform for the imagination of another type of emergent futurity. Through a discussion of these two artists' attention to whitewashed architectural surface in photography, film and architectural models, I hope to bring together surface reading and affect to show not only that through surface and affect, we can understand the working of regimes of power in a postcolonial state, but also, and perhaps most importantly, that under authoritarianism and censorship, attending to affect through surface may be one of the most poignant ways to create space and mount critique.

Abstract:
Entre todos os povos existe um imaginário utópico que inspira a construção de uma nova sociedade. “Mito” e “história”, “escatologia” e “esperança”, “sonho” e “utopia” – eis algumas questões que – a partir da Campanha da Fraternidade 2002, com o lema “Por uma terra sem males” e o tema “Fraternidade e Povos Indígenas” – nos instigam a buscar um sentido comum entre povos indígenas e sociedades não-indígenas na afirmação da diferença; um sentido articulado em torno de um projeto de vida, na prática da sororidade. A luta indígena articulada com a causa dos pobres de hoje revela que os 500 anos não abortaram a utopia. Assistimos à gestação de uma consciência mundial e a emergência de um Terceiro Sujeito que permitem novamente falar de utopias e projeto alternativo. O Monte Pascoal é não somente um monte de desespero; é também um monte de alianças e transfiguração. A partir do mito “Terra sem Mal” do povo Guarani, o A. procura com um certo realismo reconstruir a ambivalência e, ao mesmo tempo, a relevância histórica do mito e do Evangelho. Abstract: Among all people an Utopian imaginary exists that inspires the construction of a new society. “Myth” and “history”, “eschatology” and “hope”, “dream” and “Utopia” – here are some subjects that – starting from the Fraternity Campaign 2002, with the slogan “For an are earth without evils” and the theme “Fraternity and Indigenous People” – urge us to look for a common meaning among indigenous people and non-indigenous societies in stating differences; a meaning articulated around a life project, in practice of sorority. The indigenous fight articulated with the cause of the poor today reveals that 500 years didn’t abort the Utopia. We watched the gestation of a world conscience and the emergence of a Third Subject that allows speaking of Utopies and alternative project again. Monte Pascoal is not only a mount of despair; but also a mount of alliances and transfiguration. Starting from the myth “Earth without Evil” of the Guarani people, the A. seeks with a certain realism to rebuild the ambivalence and, at the same time, the historical relevance of myth and Gospel.

Abstract:
The existence of uranium minerals has been documented in Australia since the late nineteenth century, and uranium-bearing ores were discovered near Olary ('Radium Hill') and in the Gammon Ranges (Mount Painter) in north-eastern South Australia early in the twentieth century. This occurred shortly after the discovery of radioactivity and the isolation of radium, and a mining rush for radium quickly began. At Radium Hill, ore was mined and concentrated on site before being transported to Woolwich in Sydney, where the radium and uranium were extracted and refined. At Mount Painter, the richness of the ore allowed direct export overseas. The fledgling Australian radium industry encountered many difficulties, with the scale of operations generally much smaller than at overseas counterparts. Remoteness, difficulties in treating the ore, lack of reliable water supplies and labour shortages all characterized the various attempts at exploitation over a period of about 25 years to the early 1930s. Hope in the potential of the industry, however, was eternal. When the British were working with the Americans during the Second World War to develop the atomic bomb, they secretly requested Australia to undertake urgent and extensive studies into the potential supply of uranium. This led to no exports but it did lay the groundwork for Australia's post-war uranium industry that has dominated the nation's nuclear diplomacy ever since. Some three decades later, the modest quantity of radioactive waste remaining at Woolwich was rediscovered, creating a difficult urban radioactive waste dilemma. The history of both the pre-war radium–uranium industry and Australia's involvement in the war-time exploration work is reviewed, as well as the radioactive waste problems resulting from these efforts, which, despite their relatively small scale, persist and present challenges in more modern times.

Abstract:
Abstract In the 1970s, American historical sites began to more thoroughly and critically interpret slavery’s history, with a few institutions employing living history as an interpretive form. At sites like Virginia’s Mount Vernon and Colonial Williamsburg, the hope is that these historical “impressions” will engage audiences with a more authentic or credible representation of racial bondage. An earlier wave of living historical representations of slavery suggest the challenges and hazards of embodied history, however. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, a significant number of southern sites employed African American interpreters who claimed to have been born into slavery, often on the very sites where they were currently working. Historical attractions used the “authenticity” and “credibility” of these interpreters to advance the narrative of a happy Old South. Historians have noted these performances as part of the sectional reconciliation of the Jim Crow era, but have rarely interpreted them as public history. Although the contemporary living history of slavery has different—and far better—goals than impressions of a century past, this long history of embodied bondage suggests the implicit dangers of interpreting slavery and race through living people.

Abstract:
Rituals have played a vital role in the wake of the earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear disasters that struck northeastern Japan on 11 March 2011 (subsequently referred to as “3.11”). Rituals have enabled survivors to differentiate social order from the immediate chaos of disaster, to mourn, to overcome grief, and to exorcise the spirits of the disaster dead. Yet, much remains to be learned about the transformative potential of ritual after 3.11. The significance of pilgrimage, for instance, which is a prominent aspect of religious practice in Japan, has received minimal attention. In this article, I draw on ethnographic fieldwork carried out in Dewa Sanzan, a sacred mountain range in Yamagata Prefecture, to discuss mountain pilgrimage for post-disaster memorialization. I argue that the event of 3.11 expanded the ontological meaning of the summit of Gassan 月山 (Mount Moon), thought to be an axis between the world of the living and that of the ancestral dead. Pilgrimage to the peak of Gassan has become a path of remembrance and overcoming, a formula for posthumous care, and an act of hope in post-disaster Japan.

Full text
Abstract:
A large gap exists between behavior genetics and cognitive neuroscience, although psychologists feature prominently in both fields. Behavior genetics focuses on individual differences and, through sophisticated statistical modeling in twin and family studies, addresses the genetic and environmental contribution to variation in cognitive ability. Cognitive neuroscience tends to focus on species universals in brain function during specific cognitive operations, which are isolated by clever experimental design, and located in the time and (brain) space by modern imaging techniques. This paper describes the complementary approach of “genetic neuroscience” that integrates the study of cognition as an individual trait and the study of cognition as an universal process. It is argued that the intermediate phenotypes or “endophenotypes” of brain function and structure from neuroscience will boost the power of geneticists' association and linkage approaches to find the genes underlying differences in cognitive ability. Neuroscience, in turn, will profit greatly from successfully identified gene functions. Genes can provide insight in the “black box” between molecular events and cognition. They offer many opportunities to lay bare gene by environment interactions in the psychological laboratory. By reviewing some of the main issues in each field and summarizing the mutual advantages of collaboration between geneticists and neuroscientists we hope to mount further support for a complementary approach.

Abstract:
AbstractLiberations through the senses are the soteriological practices of the Tibetan Buddhists, a counterpart to and an elaboration on what in Europe is occasionally described, somewhat contemptuously, as "rattling off one's prayers". Linked with folk beliefs and rituals and labelled "naive sensualism" in European ethnographic terminology, Tibetan "liberation through senses" are all those religious behaviours (as well as related sacred objects) - such as listening to and repeating mantras, circumambulation of stūpas, looking at sacred images, tasting relics, smelling and touching sacred substances - which are accompanied by a belief that sensual contact with a sacred object (sculpted figure, painting, mandala, stūpa, holy man, tree, mount, book, substance, etc.) can give one hope and even certainty of achieving liberation. This study argues against ethnological conclusion, classifying such a kind of behaviour as a typical example of non-reflective folk-religiousness. The text is concerned with an in-depth interpretation of "liberations through the senses." The soteriological idea of endless repetition, associated with the process of destroying the discursive consciousness, is projected on the background of comparative religion. Subsequently, the full soteriological cycle, beginning with rattling off prayers and ending with "a borderline experience," is traced in the Tibetan and other religious materials.

Abstract:
SummaryThe prospect for psychiatric research in Britain is bleak. The U.K. government reduced its funding of British Universities by about 10 % between 1980 and 1983 and is now imposing further reductions of about 2 % a year for the foreseeable future. Funding of the Research Councils is also being reduced at a similar rate. As a result many academic and technical posts in our medical schools have already been lost or “frozen” and many more seem destined to disappear before the end of the decade. Although charitable bodies like the Wellcome Foundation are attempting to provide additional funds to offset the damage serious harm is being done to British medical research, and to British science in general.Psychiatric research suffers along with everything else. For the past generation our strength and our most important achievements have been in social psychiatry. Very few departments have the laboratories or the expertise to mount fundamental biological research and in the present financial climate they have little hope of acquiring this capacity. The Medical Research Council spends its shrinking funds as wisely as it can and there is still a great deal of expertise in our university departments and MRC units, but our capacity to compete with the United States is waning fast. We will do our best to continue to do research which is well designed, innovative and useful. But unless our financial predicament changes we will be responsible for a decreasing proportion of the most important and influential studies, particularly in the biological sphere in which the major developments of the next decade are likely to come.

Abstract:
The probability of wildfires, or prescribed fires, occurring in mallee rangelands, is strongly dependent on availability of adequate grass fuel loads. Grass fuels comprise two major elements, a perennial component dominated by the hummock species Triodia scariosa (porcupine grass) and an ephemeral component dominated by the annual/biemial tussock species Stipa nitida (speargrass). Population dynamics and abundance of both fuel elements are, in turn, strongly influenced by rainfall regime, particularly during the seedling recruitment phase. This paper records data on the spatial distributions of different fuels, plant architecture and post-fire seedling recruitment and survivorship of T. scariosa, obtained during field studies on contrasting mallee sites in western New South Wales. In addition, rainfall data extending over c. 100 years were used in a water balance study at one mallee site (Pooncarie); while similar rainfall data were analysed for three mallee sites (Pooncarie, Ivanhoe and Mount Hope) using a filter technique to examine quasi- periodicities of rainfall and potential correlations with known wildfire seasons in the past. Precipitation records from the Meteorological Districts of western New South Wales, and from various towns in the area, were analysed as well. All data sets exhibited strong coherence and the resulting filter curves resembled each other closely, with peaks reflecting 'above-average rainfall' and troughs 'below-average rainfall or drought'- the latter often being associated with El NiiiolSouthern Oscillation events. The management implications of these phenomena, particularly as they relate to major drought events, are discussed in the context of vegetation manipulation based on prescribed fire.

Abstract:
At 9:26 pm on April 14, 2016, a magnitude 6.5 earthquake struck directly beneath Kumamoto prefecture, Japan, producing a seismic intensity level (JMA) of 7 in Mashiki Town. Although the earthquake damage forecasting system in operation at the time predicted that this earthquake would cause no damage, it resulted in extensive human casualties and property damage centered in Mashiki Town. Past midnight on April 16, 28 hours after the first shock, the second and main shock hit, which recorded magnitude 7.3 and was the strongest recorded urban earthquake in Japan since 1995. The hypocenter extended from Kumamoto prefecture to Oita prefecture, cutting across the island of Kyushu. Mount Aso also saw increased volcanic activities which led to several landslides. This resulted in the collapse of the Great Aso Bridge, an important transportation point, causing the loss of human lives as well as obstruction of traffic for an extended period. Much confusion arose in the process of implementing measures in response to the earthquakes, which produced damage in urban areas as well as hilly and mountainous regions, raising many issues and prompting several new approaches. Researchers in many fields have conducted various activities at the disaster sites in the one-year period following the earthquakes, and produced significant findings in many areas. In order to make these results available to the wider global community, JDR is releasing a special issue on the 2016 Kumamoto Earthquakes with excellent papers and reports to mark their one-year anniversary. While the submitted papers to this special issue went through our regular peer review process, no publication charge was imposed so as to encourage as many submissions as possible. It is our hope that this special issue will contribute to throwing light on the 2016 Kumamoto Earthquakes in its entirety.

Abstract:
Sixty-eight pepper (Capsicum chinense Jacq.) accessions were evaluated for yield (measured as total number of fruits per plant and total fruit weight per plant) and 15 other traits under open-field conditions in two trials, one conducted in the dry (Trial-1) and the other in wet season (Trial-2) of 2014. Each trial was set in a randomized complete block design with three replications (20 plants per replicate) at The University of the West Indies Field Station, Mount Hope, Trinidad and Tobago. There were significant differences (p < 0.01 to 0.001) among the accessions for all traits except plant height, plant canopy width in Trial-1, and early vigour in Trial-2. Total number of fruits per plants was weakly correlated (r = 0.37 in Trial-1, r = 0.45 in Trial-2; p < 0.01 to 0.001) with total fruit weight per plant, but was strongly associated with number of fruits per plant in the first and second 5 pickings (r = 0.78 to 0.97, p < 0.001) and moderately negatively correlated (r = -0.33 to -0.56, p < 0.01 to 0.001) with fruit width and average fruit weight. Total fruit weight per plant was positively associated with fruit weight per plant in the first and second 5 pickings (r = 0.66 to 0.89, p < 0.001), and negatively correlated (r = -0.41 to -0.69, p < 0.001) with days to 50% flowering and fruiting. A comparison of linear regression lines showed that the relative ranking of the accessions over seasons did not change for days to 50% flowering and fruiting, fruit weight per plant in the second 5 pickings, total fruit weight per plant and fruit width. The implications of these results are discussed.

Full text
Abstract:
A new approach is described for mounting microcrystals of biological macromolecules for cryocrystallography. The sample mounts are prepared by patterning thin polyimide films by standard microfabrication techniques. The patterned structures contain a small hole for the crystal connected to a larger holeviaa drainage channel, allowing removal of excess liquid and easier manipulation in viscous solutions. These polyimide structures are wrapped around small metal rods. The resulting curvature increases their rigidity and allows a convenient scoop-like action in retrieving crystals. The polyimide contributes minimally to X-ray background and absorption, and can be treated to obtain desired hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity. The new mounts are fully compatible with existing automated sample-handling hardware for cryocrystallography. Their potential advantages include completely reproducible sample hole sizes to below 10 µm; accurate and reproducible sample positioning and good sample-to-mount contrast, simplifying alignment; more convenient manipulation of small crystals; easier removal of excess liquid and reduced background scatter; reduced thermal mass and more rapid flash-cooling; and easy design customization and mass production. They are especially well suited to data collection from the smaller crystals produced in high-throughput crystallization trials, and are suitable for automated crystal retrieval. They should be more generally useful for X-ray data collection from small organic and inorganic crystals of all types.

In electric product manufacturing process, sometime we must place components in through-hole ways , then we use wave soldering. Wave soldering is used for both through-hole printed circuit assemblies, and surface mount. As technology changing very soon, the through-hole components have been largely replaced by surface mount components, this time ,Reflow soldering is the most common method of attaching surface mount components to a circuit board,but not wave soldering also reflowing, we must focus on wetting , It quantifies the wettability of a solid surface by a liquid .wetting angle is a the important quantity (also called contact angle).it can judge the quality of solder joints.

Abstract:
This paper presents the experience in providing CERN users with direct online access to their EOS/CERNBox-powered user storage from Windows. In production for about 15 months, a High-Available Samba cluster is regularly used by a significant fraction of the CERN user base, following the migration of their central home folders from Microsoft DFS in the context of CERN’s strategy to move to open source solutions. We describe the configuration of the cluster, which is based on standard components: the EOS-backed CERNBox storage is mounted via FUSE, and an additional mount provided by CephFS is used to share the cluster’s state. Further, we describe some typical shortcomings of such a setup and how they were tackled. Finally, we show how such an additional access method fits in the bigger picture, where the storage is seamlessly accessed by user jobs, sync clients, FUSE/Samba mounts as well as the web UI, whilst aiming at a consistent view and user experience.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) disease activity during pregnancy is related to adverse neonatal and pregnancy-related outcomes. Biologics are used to suppress disease activity, however, since there is known transplacental passage, the American Gastroenterology Association (AGA) recommends timing the final dose with drug-specific half-lives although there is little evidence demonstrating adverse outcomes. Aims We aim to assess the safety of early versus late discontinuation of biologics according to drug-specific half-lives by comparing various neonatal and pregnancy-related outcomes. Methods This is a REB approved single-center retrospective cohort study on all patients with IBD ≥18 years of age on a biologic agent prior to conception, have a documented final dose during pregnancy, and were seen at Mount Sinai Hospital from 2016–2019. Neonate and pregnancy-related outcomes were compared amongst the two groups (Table 1) using the student’s t-test (birthweight, gestational age, Apgar scores) and Fischer’s exact test (NICU admission, congenital anomalies, GBS, chorioamnionitis) analyzed in SPSS Version 27. The level of significance was set at p&lt;0.05. Results We identified 53 patients on biologics pre-conception. 26 patients had a documented final dose (19 early cohort, 7 late cohort) and were included in the analysis. Aside from mean birthweight (3014 vs 3561 g, p=0.036), there were no statistically significant differences between the early and late cohorts for gestational age (37.4 vs 39.0 weeks, p=0.20), 1- and 5-min Apgar scores (7.8 vs 8.8, p=0.37 and 8.5 vs 9.0, p=0.49), NICU admissions (p=0.54), congenital anomalies (p=1.00), GBS (p=0.55), and chorioamnionitis (p=1.00). Conclusions Overall, our study suggests that early and late discontinuation of biologics have comparable safety profiles based on various neonatal and pregnancy-related outcomes. In fact, we see significantly higher birthweights in the late cohort along with a consistent (non-statistically significant) trend of later gestational ages, and higher Apgar scores. Further, no cases involving NICU admissions, congenital abnormalities, GBS, or chorioamnionitis were seen in the late cohort. Next, we hope to verify our findings by conducting a prospective cohort study with a larger study population and more comprehensive data collection. This will provide higher statistical power and allow for additional subgroup analyses based on objective disease activity (FCP levels) and therapeutic drug monitoring (serum drug levels).

Abstract:
The Mount Sinai Visiting Doctors program, a joint program of Mount Sinai Medical Center’s Departments of Medicine and Geriatrics, is a large multidisciplinary teaching, research, and clinical care initiative serving homebound adults in Manhattan since 1995. Caring for more than 1,000 patients annually, the physicians of Visiting Doctors make more than 6,000 urgent and routine visits each year, making it the largest program of its kind in the country. Services include 24–hour physician availability, palliative care, social work case management, collaboration with nursing agencies, and in-home specialty consultation. The program serves many individuals who have previously received inadequate and inconsistent medical care. Patients are referred by social service agencies, local physicians, and hospitals and are primarily frail older individuals with complex needs. Funded by Mount Sinai and private support, the program serves as a major teaching site for medical, nursing, and social work trainees interested in home-based primary care.

Abstract:
The Solenoidal Tracker at RHIC (STAR) is a multi-national supported experiment located at the Brookhaven National Lab and is currently the only remaining running experiment at RHIC. The raw physics data captured from the detector is on the order of tens of PBytes per data acquisition campaign, making STAR fit well within the definition of a big data science experiment. The production of the data has typically run using a High Throughput Computing (HTC) approach either done on a local farm or via Grid computing resources. Especially, all embedding simulations (complex workflow mixing real and simulated events) have been run on standard Linux resources at NERSC’s Parallel Distributed Systems Facility (PDSF). However, as per April 2019 PDSF has been retired and High Performance Computing (HPC) resources such as the Cray XC-40 Supercomputer known as “Cori” have become available for STAR’s data production as well as embedding. STAR has been the very first experiment to show feasibility of running a sustainable data production campaign on this computing resource. In this contribution, we hope to share with the community the best practices for using such resource efficiently. The use of Docker containers with Shifter is the standard approach to run on HPC at NERSC – this approach encapsulates the environment in which a standard STAR workflow runs. From the deployment of a tailored Scientific Linux environment (with the set of libraries and special configurations required for STAR to run) to the deployment of third-party software and the STAR specific software stack, we’ve learned it has become impractical to rely on a set of containers comprising each specific software release. To this extent, a solution based on the CernVM File System (CVMFS) for the deployment of software and services has been deployed but it doesn’t stop there. One needs to make careful scalability considerations when using a resource like Cori, such as avoiding metadata lookups, scalability of distributed filesystems, and real limitations of containerized environments on HPC. Additionally, CVMFS clients are not compatible on Cori nodes and one needs to rely on an indirect NFS mount scheme using custom services known as DVS servers designed to forward data to worker nodes. In our contribution, we will discuss our strategies from the past and our current solution based on CVMFS. The second focus of our presentation will be to discuss strategies to find the most efficient use of database Shifter containers serving our data production (a near “database as a service” approach) and the best methods to test and scale your workflow efficiently.

Abstract This paper explores the architecture of the Mount Sinai Sanatorium in Sainte-Agathe-des-Monts (Qc) to disentangle the role of religion in the treatment of tuberculosis. In particular, we analyze the design of Mount Sinai, the jewel in the crown of Jewish philanthropy in Montreal, in relation to that of the nearby Laurentian Sanatorium. While Mount Sinai offered free treatment to the poor in a stunning, Art Deco building of 1930, the Protestant hospital had by then served paying patients for more than two decades in a purposefully home-like, Tudor-revival setting. Using architectural historian Bernard Herman's concept of embedded landscapes, we show how the two hospitals differed in terms of their relationship to site, access, and, most importantly, to city, knowledge, and community. Architects Scopes & Feustmann, who designed the Laurentian hospital, operated an office at Saranac Lake, New York, America's premier destination for consumptives. The qualifications of Mount Sinai architects Spence & Goodman, however, derived from their experience with Jewish institutions in Montreal. Following Herman's approach to architecture through movement and context, how did notions of medical therapy and Judaism intersect in the plans of Mount Sinai?

Located on Karangasem regency, this most elevated point in the island of Gods is sacred by the Balinese and becomes center of spiritual activities on the island. Mount Agung is an active stratovolcano. Some local volcanic and tectonic earthquakes have been reported on August 10th, 2017. as a result, The locals who live within 9 - 12 km zone from the crater have been secured. Mount Agung’s condition is fluctuate, after BNPB lowered its status from level IV to III, and the refugee went home, the volcano experienced phreatic eruption then followed by magmatic eruption on late November 2017. the news about mount Agung’s activities made tourists afraid to visit Bali. It is proved by declining number of tourist visit Bali. The government through related agencies explain that it is still possible to visit Bali. However, they should avoid any activities in the disaster-prone area. Besides, it is being discussed about plans to make the eruption as a tourist attraction. The program aims to offer new tourism potentials. Thus it may elevate the number of tourist visits to Bali as well as provide employment opportunities for the refugees.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to examine a US festival widely known for attracting television fan tourists, build a traveler profile or typology of festival goers, and reflect on how the behavioral segmentation of these tourists may affect the longevity of the film tourism event and the broader planning of the destination community. Specifically, this study examines the Mayberry Days Festival, an annual event held in Mount Airy, North Carolina. Mount Airy is the birthplace and boyhood home of actor, Andy Griffith, whose television series (The Andy Griffith Show) was set in the fictional hamlet of Mayberry. Online survey invitation cards were distributed during the 2010 Mayberry Days Festival to gather data on the sociodemographic characteristics, motivations, perceptions, and economic impact of the attendee to comprehend how sustainable the Mayberry Days Festival will be for Mount Airy. Results suggest that visitors are drawn to Mount Airy for a variety of reasons and that The Andy Griffith Show is not necessarily the main motivator. It is important for the town's tourism promoters not to get “lost in Mayberry” as they plan for alternative marketing and attraction development in the future.

Full text
Abstract:
Low cycle fatigue of solder joints is one of the major kinds of failures in second level interconnections of an electronic package. The fatigue failure is caused by thermal strains which are created from a mismatch of coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE) that occurs between two levels of packaging. As the package approaches smaller dimensions, measurements of thermal strains in the solder interconnections become very difficult. In this paper, moire interferometry technique was applied to evaluate the thermal strains in the second level interconnections for both conventional pin-in-hole (PIH) packages and surface mount components. The coefficient of thermal expansion of each component was measured. Thermal strain distributions in the solder interconnections were determined, and reliability issues were discussed. The strains in solder joints of the PIH components were much higher than those of the stacked surface mount components. Even though the surface mount components had a lower inherent strength, their overall mechanical reliability was much higher since they had practically no localized strain concentrations.
