I was doing some investigation into web service security, and ran across another nifty IBM tool: SMash. Smash (meaning secure mashups) is basically a technology designed to solve security problems when writing a mashup (a.k.a. situational application). These applications generally consume data/information from several different web services, and you need to ensure that there are measures in place to secure the data that they give to their calling applications.
Security is a concern by IT departments as mashups are typically written by non-IT staff and there is potential for leaked security. So, IBM wrote (and donated) SMash so that you can now authenticate your AJAX Web Services (Smash is javascript, so it's AJAX only at the moment). This is nifty as it appears as though you can secure your mashups by making sure that they can only access certain services you approve, or you can do other certificate based authentication.
The only issue I see with this is that it's non-standard. If the future is in services, seems like we should strive to come together and come up with a standards based way to do web service security (would WS-Security fit here?).
Well, since this is only javascript, I'm back to my research. For now, if you're interested in SMash, try out the code here (part of OpenAjax) or read more in this whitepaper from IBM.

text: PIN1 is a phosphorylation-directed person in the peptidyl-prolyl isomerase (PPIase) family members that facilitates conformational adjustments in phosphorylated goals such as for example c-MYC (MYC). both of these conformational states takes a catalyst. The evolutionarily conserved peptidyl-prolyl isomerases (PPIases) catalyze this conformational modification and are necessary to get isomerization within a timeframe highly relevant to powerful signaling cascades inside ZD6474 cell signaling the cell (Lu et al., 2007; Chen Y. et al., 2018). By working as molecular switches to toggle goals between their and conformations, these enzymes make a difference focus on protein balance, localization, activity, and proteinCprotein connections (G?marahiel and thel, 1999; Lu et al., 2007; Takahashi et al., 2008). The PPIase, NIMA-interacting 1 (PIN1) may be the just known PPIase that particularly identifies phosphorylated serine or threonine residues that instantly precede a proline (pSer/pThr-Pro). This pSer/pThr-Pro theme makes up about over 25% of most phosphorylation sites determined in a worldwide phosphorylation research (Ubersax and Ferrell, 2007). The proline-directed kinases that ZD6474 cell signaling focus on these websites are central to extracellular stimuli replies (Pearson et al., 2001) and cell routine development (Morgan, 1997; Tse and Cheng, 2018). The selectivity of PIN1 ZD6474 cell signaling for phosphorylated proteins provides it using the potential to change and functionally regulate a number of targets involved with these phospho-signaling cascades. Certainly, PIN1 has been proven to target essential cell routine phospho-proteins such as for example Cyclin D1 (Liou et al., 2002) aswell as protein in the NF-B, WNT, and AKT pathways, where extrinsic indicators bring about phosphorylation-regulated cascades that eventually alter gene transcription to have an effect on cell phenotype (Ryo et al., 2001, 2003; Liao et al., 2009). Despite PIN1s participation in important signaling pathways, PIN1 null mice are practical. The main PDGFRA phenotype of mice missing PIN1 is certainly a defect in mobile proliferation that plays a part in ZD6474 cell signaling stunted body size and infertility (Fujimori et al., 1999; Liou et al., 2002). In keeping with this, mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) from PIN1 knockout mice, that display similar proliferation in accordance with wildtype (WT) MEFs during asynchronous development in culture, screen significantly postponed proliferation in accordance with WT MEFs when activated with mitogens after getting starved to G0 arrest (Fujimori et al., 1999; Su et al., 2018). This result facilitates an important function for PIN1 in active signaling pathways to elicit a competent response to extracellular stimuli. Lack of PIN1 makes cells resistant to change and in addition, strikingly, PIN1 knockout mice possess delayed tumor development when crossed with tumor-driving mutants of HER2 or RAS (Ryo et al., 2002; Wulf et al., 2004). Phospho-signaling is certainly increased in cancers, often within a cell-intrinsic way by oncogenic mutations in signaling pathways (e.g., RAS or HER2), but also through cell-extrinsic indicators in the tumor microenvironment (e.g., TGF or FGF). These circumstances lead to a good amount of proline-directed kinases generating oncogenic signaling cascades that control tumorigenic phenotypes (Gross et al., 2015). PIN1 regulates a lot of these cancer-related goals from extracellular receptors such as for example NOTCH1 (Rustighi et al., 2009) or HER2 (Lam et al., 2008), to intracellular effector protein like RAF1 (Dougherty et al., 2005) or FAK (Zheng et al., 2009), and eventually to transcription elements such as for example c-MYC (Farrell et al., 2013), -catenin (Ryo et al., 2001), or NF-B (Ryo et al., 2003). The overexpression of PIN1 is certainly common in lots of types of cancers and it is correlated with poor final results (Zhou and Lu, 2016; Cheng and Tse, 2018). For instance, in pancreas cancers, raised degrees of PIN1 had been proven to cooperate with NRF2 and MYC to keep redox stability, enabling tumor cell proliferation and success (Liang et al., 2019). Within a mouse style of B-cell lymphoma, lack of PIN1 suppresses MYC-driven proliferation and lymphomagenesis (Dartista et al., 2016). In breasts cancer, the overexpression of PIN1 can regulate signaling and boost cancers stem cell-like phenotypes Notch, including tumorigenicity and medication level of resistance (Luo et al., 2014; Rustighi et al., 2014). PIN1 also enhances the tumorigenic features of mutant p53 in breast malignancy by co-activating aggressive oncogenic transcriptional programs. When PIN1 expression is decreased, the malignant activity of mutant p53 is usually remarkably reduced (Girardini et al., 2011). A more comprehensive list of oncogenes and tumor suppressors that PIN1 can target is reviewed elsewhere (Zhou and Lu, 2016). Here, we discuss the role of PIN1 as a critical controller of dynamic phosphorylation signaling cascades in.

Walt Disney International elevates Mahesh Samat to Managing Director, South Asia
The Walt Disney company creates North and South Asia regional hubs. Luke Kang appointed Managing Director, North Asia.
Walt Disney International (a part of The Walt Disney Company [NYSE: DIS] responsible for managing the company's businesses outside of the United States, excluding Theme Parks and ESPN businesses) today announced a new Asia management structure that will see the creation of North Asia and South Asia regional hubs. North Asia will merge Japan, South Korea and Greater China under the leadership of Luke Kang, Executive Vice President and Managing Director, Walt Disney International, North Asia.
The South Asia hub merges India with the company's integrated South East Asian regional markets of Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines and Vietnam under the leadership of Mahesh Samat, Senior Vice President and Managing Director, Walt Disney International, South Asia. "Our international leadership teams are tasked to increase Disney brand affinity and awareness in key markets around the world," said Andy Bird, Chairman, Walt Disney International (WDI). "This new structure aligns and maximises efficiencies around regions with similar opportunities and creates the momentum to accelerate growth for the Company in these markets," he further said.
With operations in 45 countries throughout the world, WDI has implemented integrated structures in international markets that have greatly accelerated revenue in China, produced growth across Japan and Europe and provided unparalleled access to emerging markets throughout Latin America and South East Asia. "Luke Kang and Mahesh have an acute understanding of our brands and franchises and long-standing expertise in our broader operations. This, combined with their understanding of the uniqueness of their markets, and intense entrepreneurial spirit, will continue the momentum we are experiencing in these dynamic regions," said Bird.
In his current capacity of Managing Director, The Walt Disney Company Greater China, Kang has led the organization (excluding Disney's Parks and Resorts division) to achieve consistent record growth across all business segments. In 2016, Disney was the number one foreign studio at the Chinese box office, and the organization also successfully expanded its reach into new cities and to new consumer groups across China. Throughout his career, Kang held various management roles across the region.

Stainless Steel Bar From Brazil: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 33995-33997 [E9-16655]Download as PDF
[Federal Register Volume 74, Number 133 (Tuesday, July 14, 2009)] [Notices] [Pages 33995-33997] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Printing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: E9-16655] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE International Trade Administration [A-351-825] Stainless Steel Bar From Brazil: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review AGENCY: Import Administration, International Trade Administration, Department of Commerce. SUMMARY: On March 9, 2009, the Department of Commerce (the Department) published the preliminary results of the administrative review of the antidumping duty order on certain stainless steel bar from Brazil. The period of review (POR) is February 1, 2007, through January 31, 2008. We gave interested parties an opportunity to comment on the preliminary results. Based on our analysis of the comments received and an examination of our calculations, we have made changes for the final results. The final weighted-average dumping margin is listed below in the ``Final Results of the Review'' section of this notice. EFFECTIVE DATE: July 14, 2009. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Catherine Cartsos or Minoo Hatten, AD/ CVD Operations, Office 5, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230, telephone: (202) 482- 5287 or (202) 482-1690, respectively. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On March 9, 2009, the Department published Stainless Steel Bar From Brazil: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 74 FR 10022 (March 9, 2009), in the Federal Register (Preliminary Results). The administrative review covers one producer/exporter of the subject merchandise, Villares Metals S.A. (VMSA). We invited parties to comment on the Preliminary Results. On April 20, 2009, we received a case brief from the petitioners (Carpenter Technology Corporation, Valbruna Slater Stainless, Inc., Electralloy Corporation, a Division of G.O. Carlson, Inc., and Universal Stainless). On April 27, 2009, we received a rebuttal brief from the respondent, VMSA. We did not receive a request for a hearing. The Department is conducting this administrative review in accordance with section 751 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). Scope of the Order The scope of the order covers stainless steel bar (SSB). The term SSB with respect to the order means articles of stainless steel in straight lengths that have been either hot-rolled, forged, turned, cold-drawn, cold-rolled or otherwise cold-finished, or ground, having a uniform solid cross section along their whole length in the shape of circles, segments of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), triangles, hexagons, octagons or other convex polygons. SSB includes cold-finished SSBs that are turned or ground in straight lengths, whether produced from hot-rolled bar or from straightened and cut rod or wire, and reinforcing bars that have indentations, ribs, grooves, or other deformations produced during the rolling process. Except as specified above, the term does not include stainless steel semi- finished products, cut-length flat-rolled products (i.e., cut-length rolled products which if less than 4.75 mm in thickness have a width measuring at least 10 times the thickness, or if 4.75 mm or more in thickness having a width which exceeds 150 mm and measures at least twice the thickness), wire (i.e., cold-formed products in coils, of any uniform solid cross section along their whole length, which do not conform to the definition of flat-rolled products), and angles, shapes and sections. The SSB subject to the order is currently classifiable under subheadings 7222.10.0005, 7222.10.0050, 7222.20.0005, 7222.20.0045, 7222.20.0075, and 7222.30.0000 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs [[Page 33996]] purposes, the written description of the scope of the order is dispositive. Verification As provided in section 782(i) of the Act, we verified sales information VMSA provided (see Preliminary Results). Since the publication of the Preliminary Results, we have verified cost information provided by VMSA using standard verification procedures, including on-site inspection of the manufacturer's facility, the examination of relevant cost and financial records, and the selection of original documentation containing relevant information. Our verification results are outlined in the public version of the verification report, dated April 7, 2009, which is on file in the Central Records Unit, room 1117 of the main Commerce building. Analysis of Comments Received The issues raised in the case and rebuttal briefs are addressed in the ``Issues and Decision Memorandum'' (Decision Memorandum) from John M. Andersen, Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary, to Ronald K. Lorentzen, Acting Assistant Secretary, dated July 7, 2009, which is hereby adopted by this notice. A list of the issues which parties have raised and to which we have responded is in the Decision Memorandum and attached to this notice as an Appendix. The Decision Memorandum, which is a public document, is on file in the Central Records Unit, main Department building, Room 1117, and accessible on the Web at http://ia.ita.doc.gov/frn/index. html. The paper copy and electronic version of the Decision Memorandum are identical in content. Changes Since the Preliminary Results Based on our findings at the cost verification and analysis of the comments received, we have recalculated VMSA's cost of manufacture of the rolled products to include the additional depreciation expense on the new rolling mill for May through October 2007. Consistent with the Preliminary Results, we have calculated VMSA's financial-expense ratio using the consolidated audited financial statements of the highest consolidated entity, Voelstalpine A.G., for fiscal year 2008. We have recalculated the cost-of-sales denominator used in the financial- expense ratio to exclude the distribution-center operations costs and, thus, have revised the financial-expense ratio for the final results accordingly. We have also recalculated the ratio for VMSA's general and administrative (G&A) expenses to exclude the revenue recognized from the reversal of contingencies which VMSA had claimed as an offset to G&A expense. See Final Cost Calculation Memorandum from Laurens Van Hauten to Neal Halper, dated, July 7, 2009, and Final Analysis Memorandum, dated July 7, 2009, for detailed information on these changes. Final Results of Review As a result of our review, we determine that the weighted-average dumping margin for VMSA is 4.96 percent for the period February 1, 2007, through January 31, 2008. Assessment Rates The Department shall determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. In accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we have calculated importer/customer-specific assessment rates for these final results of review. We divided the total dumping margins for the reviewed sales by the total entered value of those reviewed sales for each reported importer or customer. We will instruct CBP to assess the importer/ customer-specific rate uniformly, as appropriate, on all entries of subject merchandise made by the relevant importer or customer during the POR. See 19 CFR 351.212(b). The Department clarified its ``automatic assessment'' regulation on May 6, 2003. See Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003) (Assessment of Antidumping Duties). This clarification will apply to entries of subject merchandise during the POR produced by VMSA for which VMSA did not know its merchandise was destined for the United States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries of VMSA-produced merchandise at the all-others rate if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction. For a full discussion of this clarification, see Assessment of Antidumping Duties. The Department intends to issue liquidation instructions to CBP 15 days after the publication of these final results of review. Cash-Deposit Requirements The following deposit requirements will be effective upon publication of this notice of final results of administrative review for all shipments of SSB from Brazil entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the cash-deposit rate for VMSA will be 4.96 percent; (2) for previously reviewed or investigated companies not listed above, the cash-deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most recent period; (3) if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the less-than-fair-value investigation but the manufacturer is, the cash-deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recent period for the manufacturer of the merchandise; (4) if neither the exporter nor the manufacturer has its own rate, the cash- deposit rate will be the all-others rate for this proceeding, 19.43 percent, as established in the investigation. See Notice of Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value: Stainless Steel Bar From Brazil, 59 FR 66914 (December 28, 1994). These deposit requirements shall remain in effect until further notice. Notification to Parties This notice also serves as a reminder to importers of their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f) to file a certificate regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in the Department's presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of doubled antidumping duties. This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility concerning the disposition of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely notification of the destruction of APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and the terms of an APO is a sanctionable violation. These final results of administrative review are issued and published in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act. Dated: July 7, 2009. Ronald K. Lorentzen, Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.

1. 12MHz clock or crystal that matches datasheet?s specs.
2. Power on reset (low signal) of at least 10ms, as indicated in datasheet.
3. EZ-Host Only: Pull-up resistor (47K) on EZ-Host pin 38, A15/CLKSEL pin.
4. Ground all reserve pins (pin 48 on EZ-Host, pin A6 on EZ-OTG).
5. Set GPIO[31:30] appropriately.
6. Make sure VCC, AVCC, and BoostVCC are all connected to power.
7. Make sure that both GND and AGND are grounded.
When EZ-Host/OTG properly comes out of reset, code execution will begin at 0xFFF0 with an immediate jump to 0xE000, which is the start of BIOS. During BIOS initialization, BIOS will make read operations to both the I2C bus and external memory interface (EZ-Host only) to see if there is code to be loaded. Therefore, either the SDA pin on the I2C interface or the nRD pin of the external memory can be probed for activity to ensure that the part properly exited reset and began BIOS code execution.

New Delhi: Doctors said that the condition of the two women who underwent womb transplant surgeries at Pune's Galaxy Care Laparoscopy Institute (GCLI) last week is stable.
On May 18, a 21-year-old woman from Solapur, who was born with a condition known as Mayer Rokitansky Küster Hauser (MRKH) syndrome (congenital absence of uterus), received her mother's uterus, becoming the first person to undergo such procedure in India, so that she can conceive normally.
According to doctors, the woman has normal blood flow seventy-two hours after undergoing the transplant and has also started eating on her own.
"She has started eating on her own. The Doppler study revealed normal blood flow in the entire uterus," oncosurgeon Shailesh Puntambekar, who carried out the transplant surgery on her along with 11 surgeons, was quoted as saying by the TOI.
Another woman from Vadodara, who underwent a womb transplant surgery the next day on May 19 at the hospital, also has normal blood flow in the uterus, added Dr Puntambekar.
"Forty-eight-hours have passed since the surgery and the transplanted uterus is showing normal blood flow. Except the urine catheter, all other tubes attached to her have been removed. The Doppler study on Saturday showed normal blood flow in the uterus," he added.
Like in the case of Solapur woman, the 24-year-old beautician from vadodara also received her mother's womb.
While the feat achieved by the Pune's GCLI has offered a new hope to childless couples, a Bengaluru-based fertility clinic, Milann, will also be conducting two uterine transplants in June.
Reportedly, 21 women have already registered for the procedure at the Pune hospital after the successful womb transplant surgeries last week.

This Mediterranean Blend is produced from Fairtrade accredited coffee. It is a Dark Roast Colombian Coffee . We have roasted this as Full City (also called a French) roast, dropped from the roaster just as the roast reaches second crack. This releases the natural oils in the bean without allowing the roasting process to overpower the flavour.
A French/Full City roast is darker than most modern espresso blends. These roasts are characterised by their dark colour, oily beans and lack of acidity. This gives the coffee a rich, solid flavour with a smooth aftertaste and only a hint of bitterness.
Origin: Colombia
Estate: Antioquia/Medellin
Varieties: Bourbon, Typica
Certification: Fairtrade
Processing: Washed, sun dried.
Our Mediterranean blend works equally well with any brewing method: it makes a good strong shot for espresso-based drinks, or a nice and smooth strong Cafetiere brew.
We currently have a Special Edition Old Brown Java which you may also find of interest:

Keywords: Aeroelastic tailoring, active aeroelastic wing, smart materials, smart structures, structural optimization, MDO
This paper presents an overview of past, on-going, and planned European research and development activities in aeroelastic design, where the main objective is an adaptive change of the elastic shape of the airplane by active deformation of the structure. A detailed overview will be given on experiences in Russia, as well as a current European research project. One very new type of active aeroelastic concept, based on an adaptive stiffness attachment of all- movable aerodynamic surfaces, will also be discussed. Some results from preliminary analytical and experimental studies in the UK and in Germany will be given.
The paper concentrates on static aeroelastic effects. It is intended to ask some critical questions about these concepts and give some answers in order to identify directions for future developments. Unfortunately, there are many more questions than answers at the moment.
1 Introduction
Revolutionary, totally new aircraft design concepts are proposed today. The expression "Morphing Aircraft" is used to describe concepts intended to smoothly adapt the external shape of an aircraft to changing mission requirements. These concepts are mainly based on the believe that new, "smart" materials will soon offer the required characteristics to create such aircraft structure that, as an example, are able to change the wing aspect ratio by 200%, or the wing area by 50% [1].
No matter how realistic such ideas are, for example with respect to the inherent stiffness that an aircraft structure needs from strength requirements, advanced materials properties, and physical laws for light weight structural design, the new aircraft designs will either suffer from aeroelastic impacts, or they can exploit them in a beneficial way.
Kuzmina, Amiryants, Schweiger, Cooper, Amprikidis, Sensburg.
All active aeroelastic concepts can be classified by the types of devices that initiate static-aeroelastic deformations of the structure:
aerodynamic control surfaces, adaptive stiffness systems for the attachment or actuation of an aerodynamic surface, and active structural components and materials. The related group of active structures concepts concentrates mainly on the creation of large structural deformations – without special considerations about aeroelastic effects. In this case, the aeroelastic impacts from these concepts needs to be addressed.
Whereas Active Aeroelastic concepts are as old as aviation, the systematic research to exploit them on different kinds of airplanes started in Russia as early as the 1960s.
"Active Aeroelastic Aircraft Structures" (3AS) is a new RTD project, partially funded by the European Union under the Key Action Aeronautics of the "Competitive and Sustainable Growth" RTD Programme.' It is aiming at improving aircraft efficiency by means of exploiting aeroelastic deformations of the structure in a beneficial way. The project consortium consists of 15 partners from the Aeronautical industry, research establishments, and universities: ALENIA (Italy), EADS-CASA (Spain), EADS-Deutschland, GAMESA DESARROLLOS AERONÁUTICOS (Spain), Saab AB (Sweden), Centro Italiano Ricercha Aerospaziali S.C.p.A. (Italy), Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt e. V. (Germany), Instituto Nacional de Tecnica Aerospacial (Spain), Vyzkumny a zkusebni letecky ustav, a. s. (Czech Republic), Kungl Tekniska Höskolan (Sweden), Instituto Superior Técnico (Portugal), University of Manchester (United Kingdom), Politecnico di Milano (Italy), TECHNION research and development foundation Ltd. (Israel), and, as a major subcontractor, the Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute (TsAGI) from Russia. A project Internet homepage is established at:
The project started in April 2002 and it has a total duration of three years. Major wind tunnel tests are scheduled to start after 18 months. More details, about the applications of MDO concepts can be found in [1].
2 Active and Passive Aeroelastic Design Concepts in Russia
In the beginning of the sixties, the urgent need to increase stiffness of thin wings of airplanes Myasishchev M-50 and Tsybin R-020 appeared to decrease the influence of elastic structural deformations on aileron effectiveness. As it turned out, a large increase of weight was required for the solution of the aileron reversal problem, even for the case of the optimal choice of structural stiffness. Just then, after hopeless struggles with negative flexibility effects, the paradoxical decision was proposed that negative impacts from the structure must be declined, and that the flexibility must be used in a beneficial way[1]. Schematically, the proposal was, that a control surface must be located far from conventional stiffness axis of a lifting surface. In that case, the structural stiffness of the main lifting surface may be even decreased.
Special outboard ailerons were for the first time designed and tested in 1962 in the high- speed wind tunnel at TsAGI for elastically scaled models of the M-50 wing, later for the models of R-020, MiG-25, Yak-28. They require an outboard launcher, as indicated in the model of Figure 1 for the M-50, nevertheless they entirely confirmed the effectiveness of the concept. Moreover, flight tests demonstrated the use of structural elasticity of the Yak-28 wing by means of the outboard aileron to solve reversal problems for new aircraft with increased range of flight speeds (Figure 2).
The traditional approach caused an augmentation of skin thickness at the wing root of more than 10 mm. Application of outboard ailerons gave possibility to even decrease the skin thickness.
In 1963 research on other control surfaces (differentially deflectable leading edges) started [2]. They also use structural flexibility but they need no outboard launcher. They were named for brevity as the fore-aileron (for the wing in Figure 3) and fore-rudder (for the vertical tail) and they did not change the wing and the tail planform. Three elastically scaled models of different aspect ratio wings were tested in wind tunnel TsAGI (Figure 3).
A characteristic peculiarity of each of the three tested models was a low critical reversal dynamic pressure. Direct WT tests have shown that with dynamic pressure increasing the effectiveness of the fore-ailerons increased too for all three models, whereas the effectiveness of the trailing edge ailerons decreased considerably, as indicated in Figure 3.
In the next example, active aeroelastic concepts for design of a supersonic transport aircraft (SST) is considered. Theoretical analysis was carried out using the software package ARGON, which was developed by TsAGI for the practical realization of multidisciplinary design optimization problems. The knowledge of aeroelastic characteristics for the SST design is even more important than for conventional aircraft. The complexity of the problem is mainly characterized by very thin airfoils, needs for: a high weight effectiveness, two cruise flight regimes (subsonic and supersonic), and the structural heating. It is important to understand the peculiarity of the aeroelastic behavior of the structure during the very early design stages. Only this will give the
possibility to analyze different ways for solving arising problems.
Analyses showed that the range of high subsonic speeds is critical from the viewpoint of aeroelasticity. The SST model has low flutter and reversal critical dynamic pressures. For the airplane with fuel on board, the main trouble is bending-bending flutter mode. Such flutter mode can be called a cupola-type mode, i.e. the fuselage and the wing oscillate almost in phase. The second mode is a bending-torsion flutter of the wing. For the empty airplane, one more mode of bending-bending flutter appears to be critical. This mode was called a saddle-type mode, as the fuselage and the wing oscillate in the contra-phase.
To increase the flutter stability, several different measures are required. As it was expected, the engine movement forward resulted in the increase of the flutter boundary of the cupola-type mode. At the same time, as can be seen in Figure 4, the dynamic pressure values of the two other flutter modes do not practically depend on the engine location.
To increase the dynamic pressure of the bending-torsion mode it is sufficient to add on the leading edge tip a small balance mass of 60kg. In this case however, the dynamic pressure of the saddle-type mode decreases even
more, as it results in a smaller wing bending frequency and it brings the fuselage and the wing bending frequencies closer to each other. For the saddle- type mode, the most effective means for flutter improvement is the determination of the optimal fuselage stiffness (Figure 5). The above processes are attractive, mostly because they do not require additional structural weight, except a little balance mass on the wing tip.
dynamic instabilities for each flutter mode allows effective and original solutions to be obtained using the optimization method as well as guidance from engineering experience. Furthermore, there are various ways to increase flutter characteristic speeds. The most perspective approaches amongst the various ones considered are those that can improve simultaneously both dynamic and static
aeroelastic characteristics. Proceeding with such
a requirement, two types of wing tip control
surfaces were proposed: a wing tip aileron and
an additional outboard aileron located out of the wing. In the first case the ordinary wing tip (3 meters span) was replaced by an elastic control surface. Four variants are represented in Figure
6, three new variants of the leading edge sweep
angle χ 0 (a, b, c: -40°, -18°, 0°) are considered together with the initial variant d: χ 0 = +51° for the case of clamped wing.
Figure 7 shows the value of the critical flutter dynamic pressure with respect to leading edge sweep angle. It was obtained from numerical research that the application of the straight (χ 0 =0°) leading edge wing tip gives the highest flutter dynamic pressure in comparison with the other variants.
In the second case the flutter of the wing with the additional outboard aileron was investigated. The aileron was clamped on the launcher, which length equals the wing tip chord. Three variants of the aileron location were considered (Figure 8): LE-variant - outboard aileron is ahead of the wing; TE- variant – outboard aileron is behind of the wing; LTE-variant – both outboard ailerons.
The area of the outboard aileron is 0.1% of the wing area, center of gravity is located ahead of the rotation axis, mass is changed from 15 kg to 30 kg. The obtained results show the
influence of the outboard aileron's eigenfrequency ("partial frequency") on the flutter speed for LE and TE- variants (Figure 9). The heavier forward aileron is effective at small Eigenfrequencies, and the lower weight aft aileron is preferable from the viewpoint of flutter at high aileron (attachment) stiffness.
Ensuring adequate static aeroelastic characteristics for the SST configuration is of similar importance. Numerical results show that the elasticity of the structure has considerable influences on the aerodynamic characteristics. These are:
• a decrease of the lift force,
• the degree of static stability (forward shift of the aerodynamic center),
• effectiveness of control surfaces, especially in roll.
As was expected for this structure there is no aeroelastic divergence tendency. The mass distribution also has essential effects on the aerodynamic derivatives for the elastic aircraft.
To increase the stiffness in this case requires unacceptable structural weight. Thus, application of additional control surfaces is more attractive for ensuring adequate characteristics of static aeroelasticity. Sweeping the wing tips allows reduction in the degradation of the lift curve slope coefficient
α and to control the degree of static stability
(c mac is the mean
aerodynamic chord). It is illustrated in Figures 10 and 11 for high subsonic speeds. (The variants of sweep angle correspond to Figure 6).

Figure 10: Lift slope coefficient of elastic SST for different sweep angles
The wing tip control surface increases the roll control effectiveness for a sweep angle of -- 40° (variant a). The rolling moment coefficient derivative with respect to the tip aileron deflection angle m x /δ tip even increases due to structural elasticity (Figure 12).
The effectiveness of the outboard ailerons considered above on the rigid wing is negligible in comparison with the effectiveness of the trailing edge ailerons (Figure 13). Nevertheless the outboard ailerons on the elastic wing (with acceptable control laws) improve essentially the aircraft controllability due to the additional forces arising from favorable wing twist. The effectiveness of the outer section of the trailing edge aileron (δ 2 ) versus dynamic pressure q is shown in Figure 13 (curve 1). The effectiveness of the outboard ailerons is also presented in this figure: curve 2 – variant LE, curve 3 – variant TE (see Figure 8). The deflection of both outboard ailerons essentially improves roll control as illustrated in Figure 13, curve 4. Here additional surfaces are deflected by law:
δ LE =2δ 2 , δ TE =-2δ 2 .
Fore-ailerons can be considered as tools to ensure roll control (Figure 14). It gives the possibility of using structural elasticity for increasing roll moment at critical flight regimes.
Fore-aileron effectiveness is small at low dynamic pressure (rigid structure) but its efficiency sufficiently increases for high dynamic pressure (Figure 15).
Different combinations of the trailing edge ailerons and fore-aileron deflection were investigated. Figure 16 shows roll rate at limit dynamic pressure for unit control deflection with four different control laws: 1 - δ 1 ; 2 - δ 1 +δ 2 ; 3 - δ 1 +δ 2 +δ LEA ; 4 - δ 1 +δ LEA . It is seen that using of the fore-aileron together with the inner aileron increases the derivative of roll rate with respect to deflection angle of the aileron

3 The European 3AS project
The 3AS project is aiming to cover a wide range of potential Aeroelastic Concepts. For this reason, the designs can only be analyzed and optimized in a preliminary manner, rather than investigating all aspects of all involved disciplines in depth, as would be required for a real airplane design. In order to at least look at all important design aspects, a so-called "experts panel" with members from the different disciplines will review the different concepts at important phases of the design process and for the planned tests. The following different types of airplanes will be investigated in 3AS, depicted in Figure 17:
• a long range, wide-body, 4-engine transport airplane,
• a 3-surface commuter jet,
• a high aspect ratio UAV for high altitudes,
• a small RPV.
Figure 17: Configurations for the 3AS project
The long-range transport airplane is designated the "European Aeroelastic Research Wind Tunnel Model" (EuRAM). An already existing low speed wind tunnel model serves as the baseline configuration. The wind tunnel model has a length scale of 1/10, which gives a span of almost 6 meters. The velocity scale is also 1/10. Based on this design, a full size aircraft analysis model will be established. The following concepts will be applied to this model:
• new control surfaces at the wing tip, forward of the elastic axis, to adjust the flexible wing deformation to the optimum shape for minimum induced drag,
• modification of the inboard aileron by a new kind of structure that allows large deformations at small internal forces, in
order to create a more continuous deformed shape, thus improve achievable control forces,
• replacement of the existing vertical tail by a smaller, all-movable surface with variable rotational attachment stiffness in order to provide large stabilizer and control forces at all speeds by means of creating higher forces in the aeroelastic deformed compared to the rigid case. The winglet configuration offers the advantage to incorporate an additional control surface at the wingtip more easily, and additional aerodynamic advantages seem to be possible. The initial design efforts will concentrate on finding the proper size and shape of the wing tip surface, which allows adjustment of the wing deformation for minimum induced drag. This requires also a look at the rigid aerodynamic impacts of this additional surface, if it is positioned outside of the wing geometry. This requires a trade-off between the additional friction drag, gains in the induced drag, if the span of the baseline wing is increased by this surface, and interference effects between the additional surface and the winglet.
The "Selective Deformable Structure" (SDS) concept is based on a patent from TsAGI [Ref 5]. The principle is shown in Figure 18. The design and application to the EuRAM configuration will mainly be investigated by TsAGI, while GAMESA will concentrate on the design and full-scale static test applied to the wing and aileron for a commuter jet.
Selective Deformable Structures concept (SDS)
Figure 18: SDS concept
Partner INTA will investigate the potential aerodynamic benefits. This concept will need special attention in the structural description at the macro-level as well as at the micro-level. Several active structures and materials concepts will be applied to the other configurations.
4 All-Movable Stabilizer Surface with Adaptive Rotational Stiffness
The two key functions of an aircraft's vertical tail and rudder have to provide are lateral stability and manoeuvrability about the yaw axis. Traditional designs have large surface areas, with heavy, stiff internal structures. In order to design a reduced size vertical tail, high aeroelastic effectiveness has to be provided at high and low speed. This goal can be achieved by an integrated design approach, where a smaller size, all-movable vertical tail is fitted with a root attachment. The rotational axis is located behind the elastic axis, as indicated in Figure 19, and the torsional stiffness can be adjusted to the flight condition: low for low speed, and high for high speed.
AMVT concept
Figure 19: Active All-Movable Vertical Tail concept
Compared to other Aeroelastic design concepts that exploit aeroelastic benefits only at high speeds, this concept exploits aeroelastic effects throughout the whole flight envelope, as indicated in Figure 20. The reduced size will result in lower structural weight for the tail, reduced bending moments due to the smaller
span, and reduced friction drag from the smaller surface.

Figure 20: Advantage of AMVT concept compared to fixed-root surface concepts
Figures 21 and 22 show example fin efficiencies that were obtained for a typical all-moving vertical tail with varying stiffness. Note that in the first case the attachment point is forwards, and the resulting efficiencies are less than one. In the latter figure, the attachment is further aft, and this results in efficiences greater than one.
The 3AS project will develop "Adaptive Stiffness Attachments" and consider this concept in terms of global designs using MDO
[6,7]. A number of preliminary analytical and wind tunnel tests have been performed, using the model shown in figure 23. Reasonable agreement has been found, as shown in figure
5 Conclusions
Some aspects of active aeroelastic concept had been already proposed in the 1960s. Nevertheless, even nowadays, the knowledge in this area has not been systematically categorized. In this paper, an attempt has been made to analyse the active aeroelastic concept in the relation to multidisciplinary design. The use of a variety of different concepts have been considered. The results obtained are promising, however, for their practical implementation, the development of methods, algorithms, software, analytical and experimental investigations should be carried out. Therefore it is advisable
to unite the effort of skilled specialists from different aeroelastic schools in order to obtain more knowledge and experience for practical design implementation.

IT WASN'T supposed to be this way.
When the federal government first began promoting Medicare HMO programs in earnest in 1996, the goal was admirable: Apply the tenets of managed care to provide comprehensive health coverage for seniors at less cost than traditional Medicare. Now, just four years later, the program is in tatters.
Sustaining huge losses, health plans have been forced to withdraw from the so-called Medicare+Choice programs in 400 counties in 33 states, stranding more than 700,000 seniors. Hundreds of thousands more seniors face the loss of their Medicare HMO as remaining insurers exit.
Maryland has not been immune from this phenomenon. In 1996, seven insurers offered Medicare HMO products. By next year, one will remain. First, national insurers withdrew from rural markets. CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield was the last to offer a Medicare HMO product statewide before mounting financial losses finally forced an exit from 17 rural counties earlier this year.
Now, the same difficult choices are being made in metropolitan areas.
UnitedHealthcare and Cigna both announced their withdrawals to take place in 2001. CareFirst projects losses this year of $7.5 million on Medi-CareFirst, our Medicare HMO product. That's on top of nearly $25 million lost in the previous four years. CareFirst sought emergency federal injunctive relief to increase reimbursement to a level that would permit CareFirst to remain in 2001. When that request was denied, CareFirst was forced to exit as well.
To remain in business, health plans cannot run deficits year after year. Even a not-for-profit like CareFirst requires reserves to invest in technology to improve service to customers and to meet tough new federal and state mandates. Premiums are raised on other products to offset losses on Medi-CareFirst .
What happened? How has such a well-intentioned program fallen apart?
In its zeal to reduce the federal deficit, Congress in 1997 dramatically reduced reimbursements paid health plans offering Medicare managed care products. Research conducted for CareFirst demonstrates the ever-widening gap between federal reimbursements and medical costs.
Since 1997, Medicare HMO reimbursements have increased only 2 percent annually. Meanwhile, medical care costs have risen 7 percent or more annually, resulting in a cumulative 23-percent gap between reimbursement and medical costs.
Thus far this year, CareFirst has spent an average of $607 a month to provide care to each Medi-CareFirst member. The Health Care Financing Administration pays CareFirst only $535 a month, and the $50 premium paid by members doesn't nearly make up the difference. That gap is expected to widen, and no relief is in sight.
Increasingly, providers -- both physicians and hospitals -- refuse to participate in Medicare HMOs because of the low reimbursement rates. Without an adequate network of physicians and hospitals, insurers cannot make managed care work. Adding to the problem are spiraling prescription drug costs. Under such distressing trends, is it any wonder that more and more health plans simply are abandoning the Medicare HMO market?
As insurers withdraw, many seniors are left without affordable prescription drug coverage. Now, both federal and state legislators are scrambling for ways to extend drug benefits to seniors. Certainly, something must be done, but the lack of pharmacy coverage is only symptomatic of Medicare's more fundamental weaknesses.
Medicare's problems must be addressed in a thoughtful, comprehensive manner. The unquestioned benefits of providing comprehensive health care to seniors through Medicare+Choice cannot be achieved without providing health plans with the financial incentives to remain in the program.
In recent years, CareFirst searched diligently for ways to continue to offer its Medicare HMO product. We refrained as long as possible from imposing premiums on our subscribers and set those premiums low, even though those decisions were sure to result in additional financial losses.
CareFirst and other health plans cannot serve the Medicare HMO market until the federal government increases reimbursement rates to reflect the actual costs of providing care. Medicare reform efforts must focus on ways private insurers and government can work together to meet the health care needs of seniors.
A steep challenge faces all of us involved in delivering health care services and shaping health care policy. The choices we make today will affect Maryland seniors for decades to come.
William L. Jews is president and chief executive officer of CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield.

Dark mornings, dark evenings, it may feel like you're not getting to see daylight these days. If the dark mornings are making it a challenge to get out of bed and disrupting your usual routine you're not alone! The change in daylight hours means we get less exposure to sunlight and less Vitamin D. Vitamin D is associated with brain function and a deficiency in it can lead to a low mood and fatigue making it a struggle to feel motivated in the winter months.
From exercising first thing in the morning to making your bed, we've put together 15 handy tips on how to bring back some morning motivation into your routine.
1. Exercise
It's been scientifically proven that exercising and stretching releases the neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin; these help to improve mood and long-term memory. So, doing a workout in the morning is a natural way to boost your energy levels and improve your mood. Read our run club leader Richard Warren's blog on his top winter running tips for some inspiration.
2. Don't snooze
Snoozing your alarm can wake you up in a worse mood than getting up straight away. Interrupted sleep every 5-10 minutes does more damage than good. Try to put your alarm on the other side of the room so that you have no choice but to get out of bed to turn it off!
3. Set an alarm to something you enjoy
Set your alarm to something that doesn't irritate you when you first wake up. Having your alarm as radio static or something blaring can wake you up abruptly causing irritation. Setting your alarm to something calming such as piano music, your favorite song or podcast can make waking up that bit easier.
4. Turn your light on straight away
When you wake up make sure to turn your light on, the light receptors in your eyes tell your brain that it is daytime and will wake you up much faster than if you were to wake up and leave your lights off for a while.
5. Dress in something you feel good in
Your outfit can really set your day right, if you feel comfortable then this will boost your confidence. Making your wardrobe something you look forward to wearing can really boost your motivation to tackle the day.
6. Have a good breakfast
A good balanced breakfast will wake you up and provide you with energy until lunch. Skipping breakfast can leave you lacking in concentration and feeling irritable. Citrus is known to give a boost of energy so if you don't have time to get a proper breakfast before you leave, having oranges or grapefruit in the morning can give you a boost in energy.
7. Music
Listening to your favourite songs in the morning can help improve your mood. Listening to songs releases the neurotransmitter dopamine which will help to boost your mood and increase energy in the morning. Not only does listening to your favorite songs release dopamine but it also improves the endothelial function of your blood vessels which reduces the risk of heart disease!
8. Drink water
Your body becomes quite dehydrated when you sleep, leaving you fatigued when you wake up. As soon as you get up you should drink a glass of It will get you up and motivated for the day. Top tip: keep a glass or a bottle of water by your bed, so you have water ready when you wake up.
9. Make a list of things you want to accomplish
Make a list of the things you want to accomplish each day, it's easy to get distracted or to lose track of what you would like to achieve but by keeping a list near you, you can always refer to your list to remind yourself of your goals. The more things that you cross off the list the more motivated you will become.
10. Meditate
Meditation is a good way to start your morning as it leaves you in a deep state of relaxation, by activating your parasympathetic nervous system. Meditation can help not only your mind but also your body feel refreshed, recharged and rejuvenated.
11. Get a good night's sleep
Dr Michael J. Breus from Huffington Post recommended going to bed approximately 7.5 hours before you need to wake up. Ideally, you should have 5 x 90-minute sleep cycles in order to have the correct amount of sleep.
12. Do something different
Routine can become mundane very fast. It can cause your motivation to decrease as you're doing the same thing day in and day out. Maybe take a different route to work, go to a café you've never been to before, try something new off the menu. Doing small things helps to add variety into your life and this can not only boost your energy but also motivate you.
13. Make your bed
Making your bed in the morning will give you a feeling of accomplishment straight away and encourage you to continue to complete other tasks throughout the day.
14. Morning mantra
When you wake up try to repeat your favorite motivational quote, saying it either out-loud or in your head. This can help you start the day encouraged and
15. Make plans
Plan to get breakfast with a friend, go for a morning run, walk to work with a coworker, making plans will help you get up in the morning and feel motivated as you have something to look forward to.
We hope these tips help you feel more motivated! Making some small changes can boost not only your body but your mind, leaving you feeling more motivated and energetic throughout the day.

Smith, DJ (2014) 'Watching Wakatobi: A working Coral Reef.' Asian Diver Magazine (2).Full text not available from this repository.
CORAL REEFS are the most biodiverse marine systems. Those corals that produce reef structures provide habitat for many thousands of species, many of which probably remain undiscovered. What a shame it would be to see reefs destroyed during our lifetime when we are their present day guardians. The loss of reefs on our watch is a very real possibility; it may not be our fault, but apathy, burying our heads in the preverbal sand and inactivity would make us as culpable as any other generation.

1973 Jeep Wagoneer
Reading time: less than a minute.
The classic Jeep Wagoneer is one of those unmistakably American cars, this example is fitted with a V8 and an automatic transmission, sadly the air-conditioning needs a little work and the Fairway green metallic could do with a good polish but all in all it's a solid looking survivor that'll make a hell of a summertime wagon.

Event: POWER, COSTUME & SCENOGRAPHY: Making Fashion a Statement in 18th-19th Century Malta
Date: 27 December 2019
Time: 18:30
Place: National Library, Valletta
The National Library of Malta is inviting the general public to 'POWER, COSTUME & SCENOGRAPHY: Making Fashion a Statement in 18th-19th Century Malta' – a lecture programme covering 2019-2020 and coordinated by Maroma Camilleri and Mevrick Spiteri with accompanying exhibitions set up in collaboration with Heritage Malta.
'Testimony of a bygone time: study of a gentleman's banyan and cap' by Claire Bonavia will examine and discuss a gentleman's jacket, waistcoat and cap dating back to the eighteenth century; both items will also be on display. The study of the pattern and cut can tell us about the fashion of the time and from which country it might have drawn inspiration and how construction details can help narrowing the dating of the garment. The fabric, along with the materials and techniques, will also be examined as they can reveal the social economic status of the owner and for which occasion the attires were used. This kind of fabric can also indicate the influences and fashions of the era, as oriental inspired objects were really in vogue during the eighteenth century. The evolution of this type of garment along fashion history will also be discussed, as we will find out that contemporary cloths still follow very similar patterns. We will conclude with a brief discussion about the technical aspects of textile conservation and preservation, and the issues a conservation professional encounters when it comes to storage or display of such garments.
This second lecture in a series of 8 free public lectures will be held on 27 December 2019 at 18:30 at the National Library, Valletta.
All Malta Libraries lectures are free and open to the general public – no prior booking necessary.
For further information and updates about the lecture check out the dedicated Facebook event page or send any queries here.

South Australian senator Bob Day will resign from parliament after his home building business went into liquidation.
The Family First senator, who has attended just three of 11 sitting days since he was re-elected in July, owns the Home Australia Group, which operates in several states, trading as Huxley Homes in NSW, Ashford Homes in Victoria, Newstart Homes in Queensland, Homestead Homes in South Australia and Collier Homes WA.
McGrathNicol has been appointed liquidator for the group and Day has issued a statement saying he had signed personal guarantees and because the liabilities exceed assets, he will lose the family home.
"Having been in business for over 40 years, I am naturally devastated by what has happened and will do whatever I can now to assist those affected by this closure. All homes under construction are covered by Home Owners Warranty insurance," Day said.
"As for my role as a Senator, I will of course resign."
Day first became a senator in 2013, but said he returned to the business last year telling its advisers "to either sell it or take on board an equity partner to recapitalise the company".
"While four members of the group all posted a profit in 2015/16, problems and losses associated with Huxley Homes (and the high price paid for the company in 2003), has seriously undermined the Group's balance sheet and ability to continue trading,'' Senator Day said in a statement.
"I am incredibly sorry for the pain, stress and suffering I know this will cause."
Fairfax Media reported on the weekend that Day had been trying to save the NSW business amid Fair Trading complaints and reports that building completions were nearly a year behind schedule.
Day was the 12th and last senator elected in South Australia.
