After elucidating the semantics of Route phrases in motion sentences, this paper addresses itself to a novel type of adjunct involving

all

the , as in She coughed

all

the

way

to her office. This construction is peculiar not only because the modifier

all

the is obligatory (She coughed to her office) but also because it involves dual predications denoting the occurrence of the main verb's event and the subject's movement to the designated goal. These peculiarities are accounted for by a special operation on Conceptual Structure that creates a motion event from a non-motion event. Theoretical proposals are also made to distinguish between motional and resultative constructions and to resolve the issues of telicity and functional categories for adverbials.

In this paper, we propose a deep-learning-based sequential phishing detection to improve the security and speed of the phishing detection. In our proposed method, phishing websites are detected in three phases: the URL, domain, and HTML analysis phases. In these phases, URLs, DNS records, and HTML contents are input to CNN-BiLSTMs (Convolutional Neural Network-Bidirectional Long Short Term Memory), respectively. Through experiments, we show that our proposed method is faster than the existing detection method, in which URLs and HTML contents are input to a CNN-BiLSTM simultaneously.

In many ways, Australia is at the crossroads. Since his election to the office in March 1996, Prime Minister John Howard has, incrementally but steadily, transformed Australia into something very much to his liking. Since the mid 1960s, Australia has experienced considerable degrees of change. Multiculturalism, as a concept and practice, enriched Australians' quality of life. Reconciliation with indigenous people through non-Aboriginals' commitment and apology gained a certain momentum. In a sphere of foreign policy, the focus was shifted from the US towards North and Southeast Asia. These changes had enjoyed bi-partisan (multi-partisan if the Australian Democrats are included) support. There had been a tacit agreement not to make "race" an election issue. All these advances, which had made Australia more generous and tolerant and thus more likeable, attractive and respectable to the eyes of outside world, especially to those of its close neighbours in the Asia-Pacific region, are now in jeopardy as a result of the Howard government's policies. In terms of Australia's foreign policy, there are two tendencies. One is to place the bilateral relationship with "the Great and Powerful Friends", the UK and the USA, as paramount. Another tendency is to pursue more independent foreign policy as a middle power through multilateral diplomacy. In recent times, such an independent foreign policy manifests itself as "Engagement with Asia". Since the late 1960s, Australia has, while balancing between two tendencies, more or less pursued the latter course with a considerable degree of success. Nevertheless, Howard appears to have shifted that balance towards close, almost indistinguishable, alignment with the US. Australia's enthusiastic support for and participation in the Bush administration's invasion of Iraq and finalising the Free Trade Agreement with the USA are two very clear and recent examples. This paper argues that Howard is doing this not because of any perceived national interests but rather because of his ideological commitment to the US alliance and desire to score domestic political points against his political opponents.

On June 24, 2022, the US Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, which marked a further restriction on women's abortion rights in the US. It has sparked a wide range of societal reactions around the world. Women in different countries enjoy diverse abortion rights due to conditions in their respective nations and cultures. Abortion protects women's rights to a certain extent, and especially in the event of unintended pregnancy. An inappropriate abortion ban will affect women's health and lives and all aspects of medicine, including the lives of doctors, patient access, and the development of medical technology. This review provides a gynecologist's perspective on the impact of abortion policies on women's health and the medical system. This review also attempts to determine the reason for the government's abortion ban.

Recent established National Basic Environmental Plan calls for local governments to build thier own local environmental basic plans and municipal bylaws of the environment, But actually only about ten percent of local governments build them according to the survey of the Ministry of the Environment. Our survey target is the division of the environmental policy in local governments. We mailed questionnaires to 3, 302 local governments and 1, 526 were responded in January 2000. Using this data, we employ logit regression analysis and found that population, the budget scale, the fiscal capability index, existence of environmental division in the load government, existence of local assemblymen who committed environmental policy measures in election, existence of environmental division in the local government, higher citizen's awareness towards the environment, use of professional knowledge for policy decision making are major factors for implementing the environmental plan or bylaw.

Gopalan, Klivans, and Zuckerman proposed a list-decoding algorithm for Reed-Muller codes. Their algorithm works up to a given list-decoding radius. Dumer, Kabatiansky, and Tavernier improved the complexity of the algorithm for binary Reed-Muller codes by using the well-known Plotkin construction. In this study, we propose a list-decoding algorithm for non-binary Reed-Muller codes as a generalization of Dumer et al.'s algorithm. Our algorithm is based on a generalized Plotkin construction, and is more suitable for parallel computation than the algorithm of Gopalan et al. Since the list-decoding algorithms of Gopalan et al., Dumer et al., and ours can be applied to more general codes than Reed-Muller codes, we give a condition for codes under which these list-decoding algorithms works.

It is widely known that decoding problems for random linear codes are computationally hard in general. Surprisingly, Kopparty and Saraf proved query-efficient list-decodability of sparse random linear codes by showing a reduction from a decoding problem for sparse random linear codes to that for the Hadamard code with small number of queries even under high error rate [11]. In this paper, we show a more direct list-decoding algorithm for sparse random linear codes with small number of queries from a Fourier-analytic approach.

In Rajasthan 21,000 workers are engaged in hand processing textile industries (process gray/raw cotton cloth). They are exposed to hazards of the textile industries besides the harsh conditions of the desert which contributes to adverse effects on their health. To explore the occupational health problems of the desert textile workers and their association with nutrition and environmental factors, investigations were carried-out in two districts, Jodhpur and Pali. Data on occupational disease conditions, environmental factors, nutritional deficiency signs and anemia were collected for a total of 1,240 individuals out of which 845 were textile workers and 395 were comparative group workers of the same age groups. The main disease conditions, i.e. aches (19.4%), respiratory (12.1%) and fever (7.7%), were higher in textile workers than the comparative group. Dyeing group workers suffered the most (25.5%) from aches, significantly higher than the comparative group (11.6%), may be due to a higher percentage of severe anemia, besides physical labour. Printing and bleaching group workers suffered from respiratory problems (15.5%) almost twice as much as the comparative group, possibly due to exposure to fumes of acids and use of chemical dyes. Housing conditions, personal hygiene and education showed negative associations with disease conditions but positive associations with anemia. The study revealed that in the textile industry, disease conditions vary with the categorization of work. The findings suggest the need for implementation of safety measures according to the type of work in textile industries, besides extension of health and nutrition education and welfare programs.

  I have devoted my life to NMR research for nearly 40 years since I graduated from Tokyo University. Owing to innovative technical developments such as introduction of superconductive magnets into NMR, and development of FT-NMR and two-dimensional NMR, I have spent an interesting and inspired research life. When I look back on my life, I found myself starting from structural chemistry and doing research from the beginning of and the to the maturation of structural biology. I have been enjoying scientific challenges with my students and collaborators and I am proud that many young scientists grew up in my laboratory.

The mechanical movement of the knee joint is analysed by the tibio-femoral, tibio-menisco-femoral and patello-femoral contact using the silicon rubber embossment.
The movement of the knee joint consists of three major phases from the functional point of view.
(1) Hinge Phase The range of motion over 60 degree of flexion where the the femoral condyle slips on the tibial table.
(2) Rolling Phase The range of motion from 15 to 60 degree of flexion where the femoral condyle rolls over the tibial table with some different slipping factor in both condyles.
(3) Screw Home Phase The range of motion from full extension to 15 degree of flexion where the lateral condyle glides on the tibial table which is a pivotal turn while the medial condyle rolls over the tibial table.

The melting transition in three high-energy and two low-energy fcc Cu symmetrical tilt grain boundaries (STGBs) has been investigated by molecular-dynamics (MD) simulations. Low-energy STGBs are found to be crystalline from room temperature the up to T₀ (T₀ is the thermodynamic equilibrium melting point). In contrast, all high-energy STGBs undergo premelting which is initiated at a transition temperature T_c (T_c<T₀). Moreover, the higher the zero-temperature GB energy, the lower the T_c.

Central Asia has been seriously impacted over the water resources availability. One of the important issue in the region is increased salinization of the soils and the water mineralization moving to the downstream of the river flow of all major rivers in the region. Arid climate implies increased evapotranspiration rate that consequentially increases sedimentation of the water containing salts after drainage waters are flown back to the river streams. Furrow irrigation that is common here, floods fields with great amount of water that serves two purpose, first it increases soil water saturation and second removes salts from the soils. However, this cost in decreasing water quality the to the downstream of the river flow. Here we investigate impact of the salinity impact to the crop water demand and water quality following river flow. In this research we investigate these issues on the case study of Zeravshan river basin.
