Non 3-choosable bipartite graphs and the Fano plane
No full textIt is known that the smallest complete bipartite graph which is not 3-choosable has 14 vertices. We show that the extremal configuration is unique.PT: J; CR: BROWN E, 2002, MATH MAG, V75, P83 ERDOS P, 1979, CONGRESSUS NUMERANTI, V26, P155 FITZPATRICK SL, DMS854IR U VICT DEP HAUSON D, 1996, ARS COMBINATORIA, V44, P183 VIZING VG, 1976, DISKRET ANAL, V29, P3 WOODALL DR, 2001, LONDON MATH SOC LECT, V288, P269; NR: 6; TC: 0; J9: ARS COMB; PG: 15; GA: 948CQSource type: Electronic(1
The level of education and loss of earning capacity for Wisconsin worker's compensation claimants
No full textPlan BLoss of earning capacity is only one brief component of Worker’s Compensation. There are many factors involved in determining a person’s level of loss of earnings. Level of education is a factor that will affect a person’s lost earning capacity. In this study, the educational level of the individual will be correlated with their estimated loss of earning capacity

Scaling Circular Collaborations in Cities through engagement
No full textCircular economy has gained traction within companies resulting in many exploring new product and business model combinations. Yet, to transition towards a circular economy on a societal level requires going beyond new product and market-based opportunities. To enable societal level change, ecosystem-level innovations are important and so collaboration plays a key role. Cities are considered in this paper as hubs of innovation playing a key role in transitioning to a circular economy. They are responsible for 80% of global resource consumption, with a high concentration of capital, data and talent spread over a relatively small geographic area; making them an important part of societal level transitions. The current work stresses the need to understand and support collaborations in transitioning towards a circular economy. This paper explores what factors influence collaborations and how organizations collaborate for a circular economy in the context of cities. An initial literature review resulted in a framework for exploration, which informed the set-up of the questionnaire. This helped in conducting semi-structured interviews with people ranging from founders, designers to engineers from six circular start-ups, which operate and utilize the resources in cities; to understand how different organisations collaborate in cities. Results showed they focus on operationalizing their innovation through engagement with various stakeholders. As they increased their visibility in cities showcasing their value, increasing the ways and number of engagements, the organisation engaged with people and organisations having similar values and grew by scaling through engagement. This paper elaborates the idea of scaling through engagement as a way for circular organisations to scale.Design for SustainabilityDesign Conceptualization and Communicatio
Improving post-hypoglycaemic patient safety in the prehospital environment: a systematic review
No full textTo determine the extent to which post-hypoglycaemic patients with diabetes, who are prescribed oral hypoglycaemic agents (OHA) are at risk of repeat hypoglycaemic events (RHE) after being treated in the prehospital environment and whether they should be transported to hospital regardless of their post-treatment response, a systematic literature review was carried out using an overlapping retrieval strategy that included both published and unpublished literature. Retrieved papers were reviewed by each author for inclusion. Disagreements regarding inclusion were resolved through discussion. Ninety-eight papers and other relevant material were retrieved using the developed search strategy. Twenty-three papers and other relevant material were included in the final review. A narrative synthesis of the findings is presented. Although several case reports demonstrate the risks associated with repeat or prolonged hypoglycaemia, the review was unable to locate any specific high quality research in this area. Consequently, caution is required in interpreting the findings of the studies. Post-hypoglycaemic patients treated in the prehospital environment have a 2–7% risk of experiencing a RHE within 48 h. The literature retrieved in this study recognises the potential for OHA to cause RHE. However, the extent to which this occurs in practice remains unknown. This lack of evidence has led to the recommendation that conservative management, through admission to hospital, is appropriate. The review concludes with recommendations for both practice and research

Measurement of the D+/- production asymmetry in 7 TeV pp collisions
No full textThe asymmetry in the production cross-section \sigma of D+/- mesons, A_P = (\sigma(D+) - \sigma(D-))/(\sigma(D+) + \sigma(D-)), is measured in bins of pseudorapidity \eta and transverse momentum p_T within the acceptance of the LHCb detector. The result is obtained with a sample of D+ -> K_S pi+ decays corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb^-1, collected in pp collisions at a centre of mass energy of 7 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. When integrated over the kinematic range 2.0 K_S pi+ decay is negligible. No significant dependence on \eta or p_T is observed
‘Enacted in the destiny of sedentary peoples’: racism, discovery and the grounds of law
No full textWhilst the racial, and racist, basis of the doctrine of discovery is a modern innovation, the doctrine owes much to its pre-modern forms and ethos. The finding and settlement of putatively unknown lands has long been attended with mythic and religious justification and with rituals of appropriation all of which strikingly resemble modern practice. Similarity in this case, however, serves to dramatize difference. What marks modern discovery of the occidental variety is the displacement of the mythic and religious by a combination of racism and legalism. The story of that displacement is told here along with an analysis of the poverty, not to say vacuity, of the doctrine of discovery as a justification for imperial appropriation. Since the story is told in broadly historical terms, its conception of the modern relies on the temporal ‘depth’ which historians usually attribute to this term, the discoveries of Columbus here providing something of a benchmark. But this account of the doctrine of discovery is not an antiquarian exercise, not a tale told in a now entirely discovered world, the unfolding of which may have had its reasons for regret but is now decidedly done with. Rather, this account is modern also in the sense of having current significance, of discovery’s still being an impelling force in the treatment of peoples supposedly once discovered and in the self-identity of those who would claim to have once discovered them, an identity which extends to the grounding of the discoverer’s law. Following the preponderant legal authority on discovery, my ‘case’ study here will come from the history of the United States. The parallels with the Australian situation are, it would seem, close

Genetic founder effects and admixture in California's non-native red foxes
No full textThesis (M.A.)--Humboldt State University, Biology, 1999Variation at mitochondrial D-loop sequences and microsatellite loci were studied in three sub-populations of recently introduced red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) in California. Red foxes were introduced separately in northern and southern California near the beginning of the 20th century, and have become abundant and widely distributed in recent decades. Strong evidence of population subdivision was found, but this may reflect idiosyncracies of the invasion process rather than a natural biogeographic pattern. All sub-populations showed evidence of deviation from mutation-drift equilibrium. The northernmost and southernmost samples showed genetic signatures of founder effects, while the intermediate location appeared to be an admixture between northern and southern invaders. These results are consistent with the known history of non-native red foxes in California. This study is among the first to explicitly describe the effects of population admixture on heterozygosity and variance of microsatellite repeat number. The results are not unexpected, but highlight the difficulty of interpreting observed deviations from mutation-drift equilibrium in the absence of independent information about population history
