(United States Ninth Circuit) - Dismissal of a class action complaint alleging false statements contained in a merger agreement with a third party company is affirmed where the plaintiff has not pled facts that would either directly or indirectly give rise to a strong inference of scienter on the part of those officers responsible for making the false statements contained in the merger agreement.

(United States Federal Circuit) - Returning once again after climbing and descending the appellate ladder several times, the court held that the defendant had not forfeited its preemption defense and that the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act preempts state law remedies for an applicant's failure to comply with aspects of the Act, and affirming the dismissal of the state law claims.

(United States Ninth Circuit) - Held that the Federal Trade Commission Act could support an order compelling an online payday lender to pay more than $1 billion in monetary relief for unfair business practices. Two of the judges on the Ninth Circuit panel filed a concurring opinion to suggest that the court should rehear the case en banc to reconsider relevant circuit precedent.

(United States Fifth Circuit) - Vacated and remanded. Subject matter jurisdiction is determined when the federal court's jurisdiction is first invoked, so although subsequent changes eliminated the basis for jurisdiction the propriety at the time of filing supported the continuation of the case.

Madison Bumgarner has made it known he's not a fan of the "opener," a strategy of utilizing a pitcher -- usually a reliever -- to get the first few outs of a game before bringing in a pitcher who would usually start or pitch long relief.

Despite trade speculation, Madison Bumgarner arrived at Scottsdale Stadium on Tuesday as Giants pitchers and catchers reported for Spring Training. He's still on track to be the club's starter on Opening Day, though his future in San Francisco remains murky as he prepares to enter his final season before free agency.

Less than two hours after meeting Madison Bumgarner, top Giants prospect Joey Bart found himself catching one of Bumgarner's bullpen sessions after the veteran left-hander approached him and said, "Let's go on No. 1."

Adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs) are involved in the development of insulin resistance in obesity. We have recently shown that myeloid cell–specific reduction of HMG-CoA reductase (Hmgcr^m–/m–), which is the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis, protects against atherosclerosis by inhibiting macrophage migration in mice. We hypothesized that ATMs are harder to accumulate in Hmgcr^m–/m– mice than in control Hmgcr^fl/fl mice in the setting of obesity. To test this hypothesis, we fed Hmgcr^m–/m– and Hmgcr^fl/fl mice a high-fat diet (HFD) for 24 weeks and compared plasma glucose metabolism as well as insulin signaling and histology between the two groups. Myeloid cell–specific reduction of Hmgcr improved glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity without altering body weight in the HFD-induced obese mice. The improvement was due to a decrease in the number of ATMs. The ATMs were reduced by decreased recruitment of macrophages as a result of their impaired chemotactic activity. These changes were associated with decreased expression of proinflammatory cytokines in adipose tissues. Myeloid cell–specific reduction of Hmgcr also attenuated hepatic steatosis. In conclusion, reducing myeloid HMGCR may be a promising strategy to improve insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis in obesity.

Recent advancements in diagnostic learning and development of gesture-based human machine interfaces have driven surface electromyography (sEMG) towards significant importance. Analysis of hand gestures requires an accurate assessment of sEMG signals. The proposed work presents a novel sequential master-slave architecture consisting of deep neural networks (DNNs) for classification of signs from the Indian sign language using signals recorded from multiple sEMG channels. The performance of the master-slave network is augmented by leveraging additional synthetic feature data generated by long short term memory networks. Performance of the proposed network is compared to that of a conventional DNN prior to and after the addition of synthetic data. Up to 14% improvement is observed in the conventional DNN and up to 9% improvement in master-slave network on addition of synthetic data with an average accuracy value of 93.5% asserting the suitability of the proposed approach.

We present the R package mgm for the estimation of k-order mixed graphical models (MGMs) and mixed vector autoregressive (mVAR) models in high-dimensional data. These are a useful extensions of graphical models for only one variable type, since data sets consisting of mixed types of variables (continuous, count, categorical) are ubiquitous. In addition, we allow to relax the stationarity assumption of both models by introducing time-varying versions of MGMs and mVAR models based on a kernel weighting approach. Time-varying models offer a rich description of temporally evolving systems and allow to identify external influences on the model structure such as the impact of interventions. We provide the background of all implemented methods and provide fully reproducible examples that illustrate how to use the package.

Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia may progress to bilirubin encephalopathy. Findings from previous studies on long-term development of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia are conflicting.

Using Ages and Stages Questionnaire, we observed no association between bilirubin exposure and overall development in 1- to 5-year-old children who in the neonatal period had total serum bilirubin level ≥25 mg/dL and no or only minor neurologic symptoms. (Read the full article)

Multidrug resistant strains belonging to the Enterobacter cloacae complex (ECC) group, and especially those belonging to clusters C-III, C-IV and C-VIII, have increasingly emerged as a leading cause of healthcare-associated infections, with colistin used as one of the last line of treatment. However, colistin-resistant ECC strains have emerged. The aim of this study was to prove that MgrB, the negative regulator of PhoP/PhoQ two-component regulatory system, is involved in colistin resistance in ECC of cluster C-VIII, formerly referred to as Enterobacter hormaechei subsp. steigerwaltii. An in vitro mutant (Eh22-Mut) was selected from a clinical isolate of Eh22. The sequencing analysis of its mgrB gene showed the presence of one nucleotide deletion leading to the formation of a truncated protein of six instead of 47 amino acids. Wild-type mgrB gene from Eh22, as well as that of a clinical strain of Klebsiella pneumoniae used as controls, were cloned and the corresponding recombinant plasmids were used for complementation assays. Results showed a fully restored susceptibility to colistin, and confirmed for the first time that mgrB gene expression plays a key role in acquired resistance to colistin in ECC strains.

એરપોર્ટના કર્મચારીઓએ પરિવારની સાથે જઈ રહેલા 10 વર્ષના કિશોરની ટી-શર્ટ ઉતરાવી હતી. કારણ કે ટી શર્ટમાં સાપ દોરેલો હતો. એરપોર્ટ કર્મચારીને તર્ક આપ્યું કે, સાપની તસવીર જોઈને પ્લેનમાં મુસાફરો અને ક્રૂ મેમ્બર અસહજ મહેસૂસ કરી શકે છે.

પાકિસ્તાનના બે ભાઈઓ મનુષ્યનું માંસ ખાતા હતા. આદમખોરી તેમને એટલી બધી પસંદ હતી કે તેઓ કબરમાંથી લાશોને બહાર કાઢીને ખાતા હતા.

યોજના અંતર્ગત પવન કુમારને દેવાના અડધા પૈસા જમા કરાવવા પડશે. અડધા પૈસા બેન્કે પોતે ભારવાના હતા. પવન કુમાર 14 બોરીઓમાં ભરીને ચીલ્લર બેન્કમાં લાવ્યો હતો.

ત્રણ ચાર દિવસ પહેલા દરિયા માં 60 નોટિકલ્સ માઇલ દૂરથી મળી, માછલીને જોવા માટે લોકોના ટોળેને ટોળા એકઠાં થયા

સામાન્ય રીતે લગ્ન ઉપર દુલ્હા-દુલ્હન સહિત તેમના પરિવારના લોકો ખુબ જ ખર્ચા કરે છે. પરંતુ કેટલાક એવા લોકો પણ હોય છે જે સાદગીથી લગ્ન કરવાનું પસંદ કરે છે. પરંતુ જરૂરી નથી કે આપણે વિચારીએ એવું થાય. યુરોપમાં એક એવો જ કિસ્સો સામે આવ્યો છે.

રાજેશ કુમાર નામના એક વ્યક્તિએ પોતાની પહેલી પત્ની હોવા છતાં બીજી મહિલા સાથે પણ સંબંધો બનાવ્યા હતા અને તેની સાથે લાંબા સમય સુધી લિવ-ઈન-રિલેશનશિપમાં રહ્યો હતો.

16 વર્ષીય એક યુવતી પૈસા ચોરાવાની વાત અંગે પોતાની માતા સાથે ઝઘડીને બહાર નીકળી ગઈ હતી. અનેક કલાકો સુધી ઘરે પાછી ન ફરતા પરિવારના લોકો મોડા સુધી તેને શોધવા લાગ્યા હતા.
