What is Alzheimer's Disease?
Overview of Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer’s Disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects memory, thinking, movement and behavior. Its onset is generally in older adults but can occur earlier. The disease gradually deteriorates cognitive and functional abilities, making daily tasks challenging. Alzheimer’s not only impacts individuals but also deeply affects their families and caregivers, necessitating a supportive and understanding environment. At Buffalo Occupational Therapy, we focus on providing therapeutic interventions tailored to enhance quality of life and maintain independence for as long as possible.
Recognizing the Symptoms
Symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer’s Disease manifests through various symptoms, which may include frequent memory loss, confusion about events or locations, difficulty handling complex tasks, noticeable changes in personality or behavior, and challenges in speaking or writing. These symptoms gradually lead to more severe cognitive impairments, affecting an individual’s ability to perform everyday activities independently. Early recognition and intervention are crucial in managing the progression of the disease, a core focus at Buffalo Occupational Therapy.

Can't Reach Foot Pedals:
City's Littlest Organist Awaits Easter Recital
For shy little Elizabeth Ann Fawcett, tomorrow's big thrill will come not as much from colored eggs as from a black and white keyboard.
At the age of eight, Elizabeth Ann is probably the youngest organist in Ann Arbor.
She’ll climb up on the bench at Trinity Lutheran Church tomorrow morning for her second public organ recital. She played last week at special Palm Sunday services. Tomorrow she will take part in the church school services at 9:15.
Elisabeth Ann, a third-grader at the Stone School and a Troop 30 Brownie, became an organist pretty largely by accident.
Have Organ At Home
It just happens that her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Earl Fawcett of 1306 Anderson St., have a reed organ (pumped by foot) in their home, more or less as an antique curiosity.
Since last August, when Elizabeth Ann first playfully fingered its keys, the old organ has been far more than a curiosity to her. It’s been her travelling companion for at least a half an hour a day on fascinating trips of discovery into the realm of music.
Of course, it hasn’t all been fascinating to her family. “Usually.” she says, I know when I hit a wrong note.” Other members of the family know invariably.
It’s just possible that Elisabeth Ann’s three-year-old sister, Sarah Jane, may be following in her fingersteps.
Sarah Jane reaches a tentative fist to the keyboard once in a while when Elizabeth Ann practices. Displaying remarkable charity, Elisabeth Ann solemnly analyses her sister's ability in an eight-word critique: “She doesn't know how to play very well”
Also Plays Piano
According to her teacher, Mr. Theo E. Heger and, understandably enough, her parents, Elizabeth Ann plays very well indeed. She's studying piano now and will probably continue on that instrument if her interest holds.
Mrs. Heger is the regular organist at Trinity, which accounts for Elizabeth Ann’s appearances there.
“I was sort of afraid last Sunday,” the eight-year-old remembers. “But I don’t think I will be this Sunday,”
Even if she is; Elizabeth Ann will gradually outgrow that nervousness just as she will gradually outgrow her present inability to reach the foot pedals on the church's electric Organ.
For other eight-year-olds, tomorrow’s big moment will come when they slip out of bed and slide into their bathrobes and look for baskets.
For Elizabeth Ann Fawcett, it will arrive when she slips into the specially-made white robe and slides onto the high bench.

It doesn't even take as long as you'd think. In fact, it begins during the opening credits for The Fighter. Christian Bale, already being lauded for his "scene-stealing" turn as the crack-addicted former boxer Dicky Eklund, starts showboating. And then, as he walks through his neighborhood with the film's ostensible star—Mark Wahlberg playing Eklund's brother Micky Ward—with a camera crew and some locals (surely non-actors given their earthy, blank-faced realism) gathered around them, someone stops to take a picture of Micky and one of the groupies, and Bale photo-bombs the shot with his hyperactive mugging. It's a moment indicative of the movie's flaws. Director David O. Russell (Three Kings), often portrayed as a control freak of the worst kind, gives up control to the manically cocky Bale, and The Fighter buckles to its knees.
Though Russell is enamored with Bale's turn as Dicky, The Fighter is supposed to be about Micky, an aging welterweight living in the fading shadow of Dicky, touted as "The Pride of Lowell" because he managed to go an entire match against Sugar Ray Leonard before losing by unanimous decision. Dicky trains Micky when he isn't disappearing to indulge in his addiction, while their mother Alice (Melissa Leo) plays manager to Micky almost as an afterthought; Micky is bringing home just enough prize money for his extended family (including a pack of shrewish sisters) to scrape by while Alice tries to engineer Dicky's comeback. Micky keeps turning down obvious opportunities to rise above the smothering environs of Lowell, Massachusetts because none of the men who offer to bankroll him want to deal with the strung-out Dicky or the demanding Alice. It's only when he falls for scrappy waitress Charlene (Amy Adams) that Micky begins to see how much his mother and brother are actually holding him back.
There's an intriguing romance between Wahlberg and Adams at the heart of The Fighter, quietly and contemplatively trying to wiggle its way out. But Bale's outsized performance as Dicky is louder and bigger, eclipsing rather than enhancing the story in much the same way Dicky blocks Micky from everybody's view. I guess that's sort of the point, isn't it? Except Bale's hollow-eyed, twitchy, junkie goes from merely distracting to positively transgressive the way Russell frames him. Where our hero Micky is often framed in medium shots, the squirrely Dicky gets the benefit of close-ups, pushing all other characters and actors out of view. Don't blame Bale, whose fury can be electrifying when harnessed by a strong director. It's a lapse in judgement by the usually capable Russell who here can't seem to maintain the difficult balancing act without tipping over onto Dicky's side.
It forces Wahlberg and Adams' nuanced portrayals to look small scale, even though this otherwise typical fight movie is indeed meant to be a minor genre piece. That is to say, Bale is acting in a totally different film than his costars are, a grander, redemptive epic also called The Fighter but centered around him, a faded boxer trying to overcome the addiction he's given his life over to. The Dicky subplot is overcooked within the context of what amounts to a standard fight film by way of a very specific working-class New England setting, akin to what Winter's Bone did by setting its neo-noir in hillbilly country.
I don't mean to come down too hard on The Fighter. I got caught up fairly often in Micky Ward's plight, one in which he must choose between his constraining family and his own relatively quiet aspirations. I admire how forthcoming the film is about Charlene half-seeing Micky as her ticket out of Lowell. If only the sound of Bale's Dicky hijacking the film didn't keep drowning everything else out.

New York Finalizes Updates to Regulation of Hazardous Air Pollutants
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) recently finalized amendments to several regulations primarily concerning hazardous air pollutants. NYSDEC repealed and replaced 6 NYCRR Part 212, Process Operations, the primary vehicle through which NYSDEC regulates such pollutants. Changes have also been made to 6 NYCRR Part 200, General Provisions, to establish consistent terminology between the two provisions. The new regulations became effective on June 14.
NYSDEC explained that the revisions “streamline and update [Part 212] provisions, align those provisions with the Department's permitting regulations, provide more regulatory certainty for the regulated community, and ensure public health and welfare.”
Establishing a Toxic-Best Available Control Technology Standard
The program retains an Environmental Rating system to rank hazardous air pollutants based on degree of impact (from a rating of “A” having the greatest impact, to “D” having no measurable or observable effect, or additional atmospheric burden), and would not alter how “best available control technology” or BACT is applied to criteria pollutants. A toxic-best available control technology (T-BACT) would apply to non-criteria contaminants, where “the Department would determine the maximum degree of reduction or emissions limitations for each non-criteria air contaminant achievable for a process on a case-by-case basis.” According to NYSDEC, “[t]his would clarify and facilitate the regulated community’s ability to comply with the regulation.”
Offering an Alternative Compliance Option
Offering an alternative compliance option for High Toxicity Air Contaminants (HTACs) by adopting a mass emission rate option for regulated entities. The mass emission rates have been developed based on the agency’s Annual Guideline Concentrations (AGCs) and Short-Term Guideline Concentrations (SGCs) for non-criteria air contaminants.
Clarifying the Interaction between Part 212 and NESHAPs
Part 212 now incorporates control requirements required in the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAPs), but preserves NYSDEC’s “authority to regulate and reduce the emissions of HTACs in situations where the offsite ambient air concentrations exceed AGC/SGC or mass emission limits.” For the emissions of HTACs, a Toxic Impact Analysis (TIA) would be required to demonstrate compliance.
Creating a Stepwise Evaluation Process
The process ensures that emissions of contaminants having environmental ratings of A, B, or C, do not result in adverse impacts to public health or the environment. The evaluation process is triggered either when a regulated entity applies for a new or modified permit or registration for a process emission source or emission point, or when a renewal for an existing permit or registration is issued. The stepwise process allows for an off-ramp from the Part 212 evaluation whenever a step is satisfied.
Allowing Modeling Analysis
Regulated entities will be allowed to perform air dispersion modeling analysis in order to demonstrate compliance with either the NAAQS or AGCs/SGCs for emission sources with lesser emission rates.

Here is a very interesting article addressing a well known compiler problem.
Date: Mon, 12 Dec 2005 17:03:54 -0500
From: David A. Wheeler
Subject: Countering Trusting Trust through Diverse Double-Compiling
Everyone here should be familiar with Ken Thompson's famous
"Reflections on Trusting Trust." If not, see:
The "trusting trust" attack subverts the compiler binary;
if attacker succeeds, you're doomed. Well, til now.
I've written a paper on an approach to counter this attack. See:
"Countering Trusting Trust through Diverse Double-Compiling"
Here's the abstract:
"An Air Force evaluation of Multics, and Ken Thompson's famous Turing award
lecture "Reflections on Trusting Trust," showed that compilers can be subverted
to insert malicious Trojan horses into critical software, including themselves.
If this attack goes undetected, even complete analysis of a system's source code
will not find the malicious code that is running, and methods for detecting this
particular attack are not widely known. This paper describes a practical
technique, termed diverse double-compiling (DDC),
that detects this attack and some unintended compiler defects as well.
Simply recompile the purported source code twice: once with a second (trusted)
compiler, and again using the result of the first compilation.
If the result is bit-for-bit identical with the untrusted
binary, then the source code accurately represents the binary.
This technique has been mentioned informally, but its issues and
ramifications have not been identified or discussed in a
peer-reviewed work, nor has a public demonstration been made.
This paper describes the technique, justifies it, describes how
to overcome practical challenges, and demonstrates it."
I think you'll find this interesting.

title: Suspect in custody in ambush shooting of retired red sox slugger david ortiz

text:
NEW YORK – Police in the Dominican Republic were investigating on Monday why a man shot and wounded former Boston Red Sox slugger David “Big Papi” Ortiz as he sat in a nightclub late on Sunday, according to police and the team.
Ortiz, a 43-year-old retired baseball player still beloved in Boston for his role on three World Series-winning teams, was recovering in a hospital in Santo Domingo on Monday from a bullet wound to his back, the Red Sox said. His friend, Jhoel Lopez, a television host, was also wounded in the incident, police said in a statement.
The pair of assailants drove up to the club on a motorcycle late Sunday where one of them appeared to approach on foot and open fire, sparking a panic in which diners fled their tables, according to police and video of the incident posted by local media.
Some at the club then beat one of the suspects before police took him into custody. He was later identified as Eddy Vladimir Feliz Garcia.
Police said they are still searching for the other suspect, who fled on foot. Feliz Garcia had been arrested in 2017 on drug possession charges, police said, adding they had seized the motorcycle used in the attack.
El Nuevo Diario published what it said was security camera footage of the moment the shooting occurred. It showed patrons at the bar suddenly fleeing, leaving toppled chairs behind them.
The former baseball star was out of surgery and in stable condition and expected to make a full recovery, his father, Leo Ortiz, told reporters in Santo Domingo, according to CBS.
“Big Papi will be around for a long time,” he told reporters.
The surgery lasted about six hours, with doctors removing parts of his intestines, colon and gallbladder, ESPN reported, citing Leo Lopez, a spokesman for Ortiz.
Ortiz remained in the intensive care unit on Monday, but was expected to be flown to Boston later for further treatment, ESPN said.
The Red Sox said they were in contact with the family.
Ortiz started his career in 1997 with the Minnesota Twins, then played for the Red Sox for 14 seasons before retiring in 2016, according to Major League Baseball.
Boston Mayor Marty Walsh and Ortiz’s fellow baseball stars were among those expressing sympathy for Ortiz and his family.
Ortiz was famously protective of Boston during his time with the Red Sox, and won international attention for a defiant speech in the days after the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing in which he exclaimed “this is our fucking city” on national television.
Former Red Sox teammate Pedro Martinez called Ortiz a “strong man.”
“I’m at peace knowing you (are) out of danger,” he wrote on Twitter.
New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady extended his get-well wishes on Twitter, writing: “Papi defines Boston Strong … get well soon my friend!!!”
Former U.S. President Barack Obama also wished Ortiz a speedy recovery, writing on Twitter that his “spirit and resolve helped us all begin to heal from the Boston Marathon bombing.”

We’ve Raised Our Concerns With NSA Over Harassment of Nigerians At Airport – Keyamo
The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, says his ministry has raised concerns with the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, over the harassment some Nigerians face at the hands of some security agents stationed at various airports in Nigeria.
Speaking during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, Keyamo said that he gets loads of reports about the misbehaviors of some of the security operatives at the airports.
The Minister said even though these actions are not by officials of the aviation ministry, he has approached the NSA to address them because he is concerned about the harassment of passengers.
“We have complained to the national security adviser on this because we are concerned about the harassment of Nigerians,” Keyamo stated.
He explained that the NSA has initiated measures to address the problem, including the acquisition of 1,000 body cameras for use by security agencies operating at airports. These cameras are expected to enhance transparency and accountability among personnel.
“We have complained to the national security adviser on this because we are concerned about the harassment of Nigerians. Take note, it is not aviation, it is not Keyamo, I see people tagging me all the time, ‘Somebody just asked for a bribe from me,’ but it is somebody from another agency.
“They tag me all the time, it is not me, it is not aviation. We have to complain to the Office of the National Security Adviser who is doing a lot on this.
“I have mentioned before that the training is almost over now. We bought 1,000 body cameras that all the agencies will wear. We just want to go through the training first. There is a command centre for this where everybody will see exactly the moving cameras on everybody’s chest,” Keyamo said on the programme.
The minister further clarified that while security agencies play a critical role in ensuring safety, their operations must be conducted with professionalism and minimal disruption to passengers. He disagreed with calls.
He made reference to arrests of drug traffickers at the airports by the National Drug Law and Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) as one of the reasons why these agencies should be at the airport.
“These agencies should be at the airports but they should have their cubicles inside. It is when you suspect somebody that you pull him out and take him to a restricted zone and check the person.
“Not that every stop you see NDLEA checking your bag, DSS checking your bag and all that. That is what we don’t want, that is what Nigerians don’t want and that is what we must do to please Nigerians,” he said.
He called for a structured approach, suggesting that security checks should only be conducted in designated areas after suspicion has been established.
“These agencies should be at the airports but operate in a way that respects the rights of Nigerians,” Keyamo added.

Optical Setup for a Piston-Cylinder Pressure Cell: A Two-Volume Approach
Measurement of the absolute value of the applied pressure in high-pressure muon and neutron experiments is a complicated task. It often requires the presence of a calibration material inside the sample volume, and could also cause additional time to obtain the response of the calibrant. Here we describe the use of optical calibrants for precise determination of the pressure value inside the piston-cylinder clamp cells.
CNRS movie on n2EDM
Our French collaborators and CNRS produced an excellent short movie about our common n2EDM experiment. The apparatus is currently being set up in
UCN Area South. The collaboration is on track for commissioning of the apparatus with neutrons towards the end of 2022.
Operando X-ray Tomographic Microscopy of Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cell Freeze Start
Understanding the water management in polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs) during sub-zero operation is crucial for designing effective freeze start strategies. In collaboration with Toyota Motor Europe sub-second X-ray tomographic microscopy was used to study the water distributions in the gas diffusion layer (GDL) of PEFCs during dynamic freeze starts from −30 °C that mimic automotive freeze start conditions at different pre-drying levels and varying the feed gas humidity.
Cu-doping effects on the ferromagnetic semimetal CeAuGe
We present a study of Cu-substitution effects in 4f-Ce intermetallic compound CeAu1-xCuxGe, with potentially unusual electronic states, in the whole concentration range (x = 0.0 – 1.0). The parent CeAuGe compound, crystallizing in a non-centrosymmetric hexagonal structure, is a ferromagnetic semimetal with Curie temperature 10 K. Cu-doping on Au-site of CeAuGe, CeAu1-xCuxGe, changes the crystal structure from the non-centrosymmetric (P63mc) to centrosymmetric (P63/mmc) space group at the concentration x ∼ 0.5, where the c-lattice constant has a maximum value. Magnetic susceptibility and electrical resistivity measurements reveal that all Cu-doped compounds undergo magnetic phase transition near 10 K, with the maximum transition temperature of 12 K for x = 0.5. The neutron powder diffraction experiments show the ferromagnetic ordering of Ce3+ magnetic moments with a value of about 1.2 μB at 1.8 K, oriented perpendicular to the hexagonal c-axis. By using symmetry analysis, we have found the solutions for the magnetic structure in the ferromagnetic Shubnikov space groups Cmc'21′ and P21′/m' for x < 0.5 and x ≥ 0.5, respectively. Electrical resistivity ρ(T) exhibits a metallic temperature behaviour in all compositions. The resistivity ρ(T) has a local minimum in the paramagnetic state due to Kondo effects at high doping x = 0.8 and 1.0. At the small Cu-doping level, x = 0.2, the resistivity shows a broad feature at the ferromagnetic transition temperature and an additional transition-like peculiarity at 2.5 K in the ferromagnetic state.
Antiferromagnetic excitonic insulator state in Sr3Ir2O7
Excitonic insulators are usually considered to form via the condensation of a soft charge mode of bound electron-hole pairs. This, however, presumes that the soft exciton is of spin-singlet character. Early theoretical considerations have also predicted a very distinct scenario, in which the condensation of magnetic excitons results in an antiferromagnetic excitonic insulator state. Here we report resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) measurements of Sr3Ir2O7.
Lighting up the appealing world of hybrid perovskites
Researchers from Italy, in collaboration with the Paul Scherrer Institut, successfully used the macromolecular crystallography beamline X06DA-PXIII at the Swiss Light Source to characterize promising perovkites materials used in solar cells and other photodetector devices.
Low-energy spin dynamics in rare-earth perovskite oxides
A team of scientists from Paul Scherrer Institut and Oak Ridge National Laboratory review recent experimental studies of spin dynamics in the rare-earth perovskite materials. These compounds show unconventional magnetic excitations at low temperatures, including confined and deconfined spinons as well as multimagnon states, which were revealed by means of high-resolution neutron spectroscopy. These observations demonstrate that the rare-earth perovskite magnets can provide realizations of various aspects of quantum low-dimensional physics.
New insight into unconventional superconductivity
Signatures for a novel electronic phase that enables charge to flow spontaneously in loops have been observed in a kagome superconductor. The findings are published today in Nature.
Optimization of catalyst performance to increase efficiency of methanol production
Many types of catalysts have been well known for decades, but the fundamental understanding as to why they work so well is still not quite clear. Without this understanding, an even more efficient catalyst cannot be developed, which is needed to reduce the global energy demand. Copper-zinc-alumina (CZA) is a popular catalyst and has been used for about 100 years, as it facilitates the production of the important chemical building block methanol, a molecule that enables the storage of hydrogen in a manner that minimizes negative impact on the carbon-dioxide footprint. Until 2021, scientists debated over the reason why the catalyst works so well. Understanding the reason behind this is vital in order to further develop even better ones. The copper-zinc-alumina (CZA) catalyst is assessed at the Laboratory for catalysis and sustainable chemistry (LSK) of the Paul Scherrer Institute.
Exploring the role of structural distortions to obtain Cu photosensitizer with thousand times longer excited state lifetime
Cu diimine complexes present a noble metal free alternative to classical Ru, Re, Ir and Pt based photosensitizers in solution photochemistry, photoelectrochemical or dye-sensitized solar cells. Optimization of these dyes requires an understanding of factors governing the key photochemical properties: excited state lifetime and emission quantum yield. Using pump-probe XAS and DFT calculations we have explored the involvement of exciplex formation in the deactivation of the photoexcited state.
Muon spin spectroscopy
Muons are particles with a spin of 1⁄2 that can be implanted into a wide range of condensed matter materials to act as a local probe of the surrounding atomic environment. Measurement of the muon’s precession and relaxation provides an insight into how it interacts with its local environment. From this, unique information is obtained about the static and dynamic properties of the material of interest ...
Taking good and safe care of the retired … nuclear fuel
After several years of loyal and reliable services during heavy duty operation in a reactor, nuclear fuel must be discharged and go into retirement. For Switzerland, the final place of retirement is planned to consist of a deep geological repository where the used nuclear fuel will be disposed. Before the repository is constructed, the used fuel will need to be stored in wet pools and/or dry storage casks.
During all this time, safe handling of the fuel will remain the top priority for operators and regulators. To gain better knowledge on the relevant phenomena which could potentially affect the fuel thermo-mechanics and safety characteristics during long storage periods as well as to allow predicting their evolution, simulation models are being developed at PSI within the DRYstars project.
A first milestone was recently achieved with the development of models coupled to state-of-the-art fuel performance codes for each of the three main categories of phenomena considered as having high safety relevance for storage, namely helium behaviour, creep behaviour and hydrogen behaviour.

Direct evidence of in situ Co-oxyhydroxide formation on the surface of La0.2Sr0.8CoO3-δ water splitting catalyst
We carried out in situ and ex situ ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (APXPS) experiments on a La0.2Sr0.8CoO3-δ perovskite oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalyst. The study shows that Sr is leached into the electrolyte after immersion, leading to surface Co active site enrichment. Such a Co-enriched surface evolves into a new phase during operation. With the help of theoretical simulations, such a species is assigned to Co-oxyhydroxide, providing direct evidence of its formation during the OER.
Revealing invisible defects in fusion reactor armor
In an exciting collaboration, Nick Phillips, a PSI Fellow at the cSAXS beamline, reveals nanoscale lattice distortions created by invisible defects in fusion reactor armor. This work develops the current understanding of how the smallest, but most prevalent defects, generated during neutron irradiation behave. The novel Bragg ptychographic approach published in Nature Communications paves the way for fast, robust, 3D Bragg ptychography.
E-fuels and electrification as complementary approaches to achieve climate target
Sustainable, synthetic fuels, so-called e-fuels, can help reduce CO₂ emissions. For their production, electricity from renewable sources is required in order to allow for a close to CO₂-neutral balance. The availability of electricity from renewable sources, which ensures the climate benefits of e-fuels, is currently still limited. “Especially in order to produce on a larger scale, a lot of renewable electricity is needed,” explains Christian Bauer, researcher at the Laboratory for Energy Systems Analysis (LEA) at PSI.

Confirming the trilinear form of the optical magnetoelectric effect in the polar honeycomb antiferromagnet Co2Mo3O8
Magnetoelectric phenomena are intimately linked to relativistic effects and also require the material to break spatial inversion symmetry and time-reversal invariance. Magnetoelectric coupling can substantially affect light–matter interaction and lead to non-reciprocal light propagation. Here, we confirm on a fully experimental basis, without invoking either symmetry-based or material-specific assumptions, that the optical magnetoelectric effect in materials with non-parallel magnetization (M) and electric polarization (P) generates a trilinear term in the refractive index...

Reactivity and potential profile across the electrified LiCoO2-Li3PS4 interface probed by operando X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy
All-solid-state lithium batteries are a promising alternative for next generation of safe energy storage devices, provided that parasitic side reactions and the resulting hindrances in ionic transport at the electrolyte-electrode interface can be overcome. Motivated by the need for a fundamental understanding of such interface, we present here real-time measurements of the (electro-)chemical reactivity and local surface potential at the electrified interface Li3PS4 and LiCoO2 using operando X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
3D Binary Mesocrystals from Anisotropic Nanoparticles
A team of scientists from Konstanz have developed and characterized micrometre-size binary mesocrystals made from the self-assembly of ironoxide and platinum nanocubes and published their work in Angewandte Chemie International Edition. In collaboration with researchers from Empa and PSI, they used brilliant x-rays at the cSAXS beamline of the Swiss Light Source to characterize the lattice spacing in the crystalline structure of the mesocrystals and complement their results through electron microscopy.
Unravelling the catalyst aging phenomena in vehicle emission control.
PSI has collaborated with catalyst and engine manufacturers to understand the aging phenomena of emission control catalysts. To this end, a diesel oxidation catalyst with a relevant mileage was carefully analysed; the results suggest that a complex combination of poisoning and thermal sintering is the cause of deactivation during driving. A reactor setup was then developed to simulate poisoning and sintering effects for prediction of catalyst durability in time and cost effective manner.

Deciphering the Mechanism of FEC-induced SEI Formation in Li-ion Batteries
Fluoroethylene-carbonate is often referred to as a film-forming electrolyte additive for Li-ion batteries, resulting in high quality Solid–Electrolyte-Interphase on negative electrode, however, the underlying mechanism, even if thought to be known, has been only clarified due to our targeted experimental design, combining systematic electrochemical, chemical and microscopy characterization techniques. We have shown that first the formation of inorganic LiF-rich particles appear and only later the carbonate-rich film is actually formed.
Unconventional Pressure Dependence of the Superfluid Density in the Nodeless Topological Superconductor α-PdBi2
We investigated the superconducting properties of the topological superconductor α-PdBi2 at ambient and external pressures up to 1.77 GPa using muon spin rotation experiments.

Vastly Different Morphologies Dependent on the Growth Temperature
Lithium fluoride is an important material which is technologically exploited in spintronics and organic light emitting devices. It turns out that there is a vast difference between the morphologies of ultrathin lithium fluoride grown on the (100) facet of a silver single crystal. At room temperature dendrites are obtained while at elevated temperature lithium fluoride forms square islands. The system is an interesting model to study the crossover between diffusion limited aggregates and island growth.
Diamond gratings for XFEL amplitude-splitting delay line
A split-and-delay line for XFEL pulses has been built and successfully tested by a team of researchers at the Linac Coherent Light Source. Key X-ray optical elements are two diamond diffraction gratings made at the Paul Scherrer Institut that are used to split and later recombine the intense ultrashort X-ray laser pulses for time-resolved measurements.
Coexistence of structural and magnetic phases in van der Waals magnet CrI3
CrI3 has raised as an important system to the emergent field of two-dimensional van der Waals magnetic materials. However, it is still unclear why CrI3 which has a ferromagnetic rhombohedral structure in bulk, changed to anti-ferromagnetic monoclinic at thin layers. Here we show that this behaviour is due to the coexistence of both monoclinic and rhombohedral crystal phases followed by three magnetic transitions at TC1 = 61 K, TC2 = 50 K and TC3 = 25 K.
Overview of SwissFEL dual-photocathode laser capabilities and perspectives for exotic FEL modes
SwissFEL is a compact, high-brilliance, soft and hard X-ray Free Electron Laser (FEL) facility laser composed of two parallel beam lines seeded by a common linear accelerator (LINAC), and a two-bunch photo-injector. For the injector, an innovative dual-photocathode laser scheme has been developed based on state-of-the-art Ytterbium femtosecond laser systems. We just published an overview of the the SwissFEL Photo Cathode Drive Lasers (PCDL) performance, pulse shaping capabilities as well as the versatility of the systems, which allow many different modes of operation of SwissFEL . The full control over the SwissFEL electron bunch properties via the unique architecture of the PCDL will enable in the future the advent of more advanced FEL modes; these modes are, but not restricted to, the generation of single or trains of sub-fs FEL pulses, multi-color FEL and finally the generation of fully coherent X-ray pulses via laser-based seeding.
Glycation of collagen: Quantifying rates
Collagen is abundant in the connective tissue of human beings, e.g. in tendons, ligament and cornea. Glycation of collagen distorts its structure, renders the extracellular matrix stiff and brittle and at the same time lowers the degradation susceptibility thereby preventing renewal. Based on models and with parameters determined from experimental data, we describe the glycation of type 1 collagen in bovine pericardium derived bio-tissues upon incubation in glucose and ribose. We hope that this contributes to a better quantitative understanding of the effects of diabetes on collagen.
Magnetic Bistability at a Record High Temperature in a Sub-Monolayer of Endohedral Fullerenes
A team of the Leibniz Institute for Solid State Research (IFW) from Dresden, Germany, led by Dr Alexey Popov has now demonstrated a record blocking temperature of 28 Kelvin at which the magnetic bistability still survives in a submonolayer of a chemically functionalized species of endofullerenes. In this research, X-ray magnetic circular dichroism measurements at low temperatures and high magnetic field at the X-Treme beam line are crucial. The results pave the way toward using such single-molecule magnets as information carriers or magnetic bits.

Can someone please point me to documentation about what happens if either of these can't send data out to Dynatrace:
I assume they each have some sort of persistent queue so if communication is lost it will collect the data and then send on reconnection - but is that right?
And what limits are in place as to how long it can accumulate data to send before running out of disk/memory?
I did have a look but I am not used to Dynatrace docs yet so a pointer would be greatly appreciated.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Keith_Harding ,
Please note that Dynatrace OneAgent doesn't cache the data to avoid making utilization issues on the monitored server, that's why it's recommended to use the ActiveGate and to be installed closest to OneAgent with fewer/no firewall points between them, as the ActiveGate bundles OneAgent Traffic and is not limited to that, you can find more details here regarding ActiveGate purposes and functionality. and check ActiveGate acts as a secure proxy as well
also, I think it would be better as well to check and understand the Network Zones
Dynatrace OneAgent does cache data. I say this from experience, and even yesterday I had one case where I had infrastructure data for several hours, before the agent connectivity was back up. The application modules/subagents seam to have a different behavior, also from empirical observations.
I'm not sure if the data that @Keith_Harding references is still valid, because it's some years old, but would love to know more details.
Thanks Antonio, thats great real world info.
It would certainly be a good to see an official answer. Some of the info I saw was "we don't cache because we don't want to use to much resource on the machine" which makes sense but as you say in some cases it does cache.
I also heard that they may drop metric granularity as the time unable to connect grows - that makes sense.
You pont about different behaviour per module makes sense. Caching some metrics is probably low disk need but caching traces and logs could require a lot of disk evry quickly.
Thanks for your thoughts.
Thanks Mohamed, much appreciated.
For anyone else looking I also found out:
Dynatrace also has automated monitoring and alerting of conditions where large numbers of OneAgents stop sending.
And this is a previously similar question:

The parotid gland is the largest of the salivary glands. It is found wrapped around the mandibular ramus, and it secretes saliva through Stensen's duct into the oral cavity, to facilitate mastication and swallowing.
The parotid gland is found in the subcutaneous tissue of the face, overlying the mandibular ramus and anterior and inferior to the external ear. The gland occupies the parotid fascial space, an area posterior to the mandibular ramus, anterior and inferior to the ear. The gland extends irregularly from the zygomatic arch to the angle of the mandible. This gland is effectively palpated bilaterally. Start anterior to each ear and move to the cheek area and then inferior to the angle of the mandible. (Illustrated Head and Neck Anatomy, Fehrenbach and Herring, Elsevier, 2007, p. 170-1).
The duct to this gland (also known as Stensen's duct) empties within the buccal cavity (the inside of the cheek) opposite the upper second molar. The parotid papilla is a small elevation of tissue that marks the opening of the parotid duct on the inner surface of the cheek (Illustrated Dental Embryology, Histology, and Anatomy, Bath-Balogh and Fehrenbach, Elsevier, 2006, p. 166).
Serous fluid (as opposed to mucous fluid) is produced by the parotid gland.
Secretion of saliva by the parotid gland is controlled by presynaptic parasympathetic fibres originating in the inferior salivatory nucleus; these leave the brain via the glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX), travel along the tympanic nerve (of Jacobson), pass through the tympanic plexus (located in the middle ear), and then travel in the lesser petrosal nerve until they reach the otic ganglion. After synapsing, the postganglionic fibers travel as part of the auriculotemporal nerve, a branch of the mandibular nerve (V3) to reach the parotid gland.
Branches of the external carotid artery traverse the glandular tissue and supply the parotid gland with oxygenated blood, whereas numerous local veins drain the organ. These veins drain into tributaries of external and internal jugular veins.
The maxillary vein and superficial temporal vein meet to form the retromandibular vein within the parotid gland but are not responsible for draining it.
Lymphatics mainly comprise pre-auricular lymph nodes.
Inflammation of one or both parotid glands is known as parotitis. The most common cause of parotitis was mumps. Widespread vaccination against mumps has markedly reduced the incidence of mumps parotitis. Other infections such as bacterial infections can cause parotitis as may blockage of the duct, whether from salivary duct calculi or external compression. Stones mainly occur within the main confluence of the ducts and within the main parotid duct. The patient usually complains of intense pain when salivating and tends to avoid foods which produce this symptom. In addition the parotid gland may become enlarged upon trying to eat. The pain can be reproduced in clinic via squirting lemon juice into the patient's mouth. Surgery depends upon the situation of the stone, if within the anterior aspect of the duct a simple incision into the buccal mucosa with sphinterotomy may allow removal, however if further posterior within the main duct, complete gland excision may be necessary.
The most common of tumors in the parotid gland are benign and only affect the superficial gland. These include pleomorphic adenoma and adenolymphoma. Their importance is in relation to their anatomical position. The tumorous growth can also change the consistency of the gland and cause facial pain on the involved side since the facial nerve travels through the gland (Illustrated Head and Neck Anatomy, Fehrenbach and Herring, Elsevier, 2007, p. 172). Critically, the relationship of the tumor to the branches of the facial nerve (CN VII) must be defined because resection may damage the nerves, resulting in paralysis of the muscles of facial expression. If the tumor is deep within the gland, the patient should give consent for potential damage of the facial nerve.

title: Walnut goes to the beach

text:
Medium-dark walnut is not a hardwood I generally associate with beach houses—until I saw a new two-story weekend cottage in the Hamptons, New York’s favorite seaside resort. The project’s Manhattan-based designer, Laura Bohn, makes extensive use of the dusky wood throughout the interiors, which nevertheless look airy and light—as you’d expect of spaces used mostly in summer. Here’s how she does it.
Bohn conjures the spirit of Gretchen Dow Simpson’s iconic New Yorker covers—crisp architectural interiors and exteriors imbued with an attractive New England reserve—in the light-filled upstairs hallway. She painted the walls and ceiling Dovetail, a medium shade of gray that is one of her favorite colors, while using brilliant white for the poplar paneling, molding, and frames. The medium-dark stained walnut floor and bannister strike a rich, subdued note, giving what is a complex and dynamic space a pleasing sense of calm and unity without making it in any way heavy or somber.
Bohn uses a lot of walnut in the dining room—dark-espresso stained walnut chairs, a lighter stained walnut table, and a medium-dark walnut floor—but keeps the space fresh and breezy by introducing a number of different surface textures. The pale gray walls have a low-luster eggshell finish that, the designer notes, has a slight sheen, “lending them a welcome degree of animation—something they would lack if the paint were totally flat.” The ceiling is painted bright white in a satin finish that also reflects the light, “giving the room a little sparkle,” as does the high-gloss lacquer on the elegant sideboard.
In the kitchen, Bohn specified walnut for the floor and the island, but finished the latter in a lighter stain so it stands out like a separate piece of furniture. “But not too light,” she notes. “I made sure that the wood colors were within the same range.” The rest of the space is a serene composition of soft, subtle colors. The walls are pale gray and the cabinets are a putty tone rather than pure white, which the designer thinks would have been too severe: “The kitchen gets a lot of light,” she says, “so the cabinetry needed to be a soothing color.” Marble adds to the sense of calm: a lightly figured Carrara for the backsplash and a more boldly patterned Calacatta for the island countertop because “that’s the focus of the room.”
