MySQL 8.0 FAQ: Connectors & APIs The utf8 character set permits only UTF-8 characters that take up to three bytes. This has led to reports such as that found in Bug #12600 which we rejected as “not a bug” . With utf8 MySQL must truncate an input string when it encounters bytes that it does no understand. Otherwise it is unknown how long the bad multibyte character is. One possible workaround is to use ucs2 instead of utf8 in which case the “bad” characters are changed to question marks. However no truncation takes place. You can also change the data type to BLOB or BINARY which perform no validity checking. No. The term “CJKV” ( Chinese Japanese Korean Vietnamese ) refers to Vietnamese character sets which contain Han (originally Chinese) characters. MySQL supports the modern Vietnamese script with Western characters but does not support the old Vietnamese script using Han characters.

[0043] FIG. 4C is a schematic longitudinal cross-sectional diagram illustrating an example aspiration catheter system that includes an alignment element including one or more alignment structures. [0044] FIG. 5 is a flow diagram of an example method of using an aspiration catheter system that includes an outer catheter and an inner catheter configured to maintain suction and continuous flow of fluid on an engaged thrombus. [0045] The disclosure describes aspiration catheter systems including some examples configured to maintain suction and continuous flow of fluid on an engaged thrombus as well as aspiration systems including the aspiration catheter system and methods of using the aspiration systems. [0046] Thrombosis occurs when a thrombus (e.g. a blood clot or other embolus) forms and obstructs vasculature of a patient. To treat a patient with thrombosis a clinician may position an aspiration catheter in a blood vessel of the patient near the thrombus apply suction to the aspiration catheter and engage the thrombus with a tip of the aspiration catheter. Once the tip of the aspiration catheter has engaged the thrombus the clinician may remove the aspiration catheter with the thrombus attached to the tip or suction off pieces of the thrombus through the aspiration catheter until the thrombus is removed flom the blood vessel of the patient. The aspiration of the thrombus may be part of an aspiration procedure such as but not limited to a medical procedure using A Direct Aspiration first Pass Technique (ADAPT) for acute stroke thrombectomy or any other aspiration of thrombus or other material from the neurovasculature or other blood vessels. [0047] During suctioning of the thrombus the clinician may deliver aspiration fluid to the site of the thrombus and suction fluid through a lumen of the aspiration catheter into a canister located external to the patient. Prior to engagement of the thrombus by the aspiration catheter this flow and suction of fluid near the thrombus may create turbulence at a surface of the thrombus and remove loose pieces of the thrombus from the surface. However once the clinician has engaged the thrombus the thrombus may block the distal opening of the aspiration catheter (e.g. at a tip of the aspiration catheter) and cause a reduction or cessation of flow through the lumen of the aspiration catheter. As a result the flow of fluid at the surface of the thrombus may be reduced or ceased and pieces of the thrombus may not be removed as effectively. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1 Significant Accounting Policies intercompany transactions and profits have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. Within the Business Segment Information intersegment and interarea sales are recorded at fair market value and are immaterial in amount. Revenue Recognition — Revenue is recognized when the risks and rewards of ownership and title to the product has transferred to the customer. On December 3 1999 the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements ” (SAB 101). SAB 101 reflects the basic principles of revenue recognition in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. No significant changes to the Company’s revenue recognition policies were necessary to comply with SAB 101. The significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements are summarized below. Nature of Operations — The Company is a leading worldwide producer of motion control products including fluid power systems electromechanical controls and related components. The Company evaluates performance based on segment operating income before Corporate general and administrative expenses Interest expense and Income taxes. The Company operates in two principal business segments: Industrial and Aerospace. The Industrial Segment is an aggregation of several business units which produce motion-control and fluid power system components for builders and users of various types of manufacturing packaging processing transportation agricultural construction and military machinery vehicles and equipment. Industrial Segment products are marketed primarily through field sales employees and independent distributors. The North American Industrial business represents the largest portion of the Company’s manufacturing plants and distribution networks and primarily services North America. The International Industrial operations bring Parker products and services to countries throughout Europe Asia Pacific and Latin America. In the fourth quarter of 2001 the Company adopted Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue 00-10 “Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs ” which requires amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling to be included as a component of sales. The Company restated its Net sales for the first three quarters of 2001 and total year Net sales for 2000 and 1999 resulting in an increase in both Net sales and Cost of sales of $23 164 $30 281 and $27 896 respectively. Cash — Cash equivalents consist of short-term highly liquid investments with a three-month or less maturity carried at cost plus accrued interest which are readily convertible into cash. Inventories — Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The majority of domestic inventories are valued by the last-in first-out method and the balance of the Company's inventories are valued by the first-in first-out method. Long-term Contracts — The Company enters into long-term contracts for the production of aerospace products and the manufacture of custom- engineered buildings. For financial statement purposes sales are recorded as deliveries are made (units of delivery method of percentage-of-completion). Unbilled costs on these contracts are included in inventory. Progress payments are netted against the inventory balances. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Plant Equipment and Depreciation — Plant and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated principally using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes. Depreciation rates are based on estimated useful lives of the assets generally 40 years for buildings; 15 years for land improvements and building equipment; 10 years for machinery; and seven years for equipment. Improvements which extend the useful life of property are capitalized and maintenance and repairs are expensed. When property is retired or otherwise disposed of the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the appropriate accounts and any gain or loss is included in current income. Investments and Other Assets — Investments in joint-venture companies in which ownership is 50% or less and in which the Company does not have operating control are stated at cost plus the Company's equity in undistributed earnings. These investments and the related earnings are not material to the consolidated financial statements. Excess Cost of Investments — The excess cost of investments over net assets acquired is being amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 15 years to 40 years. Unamortized cost in excess of associated Basis of Consolidation — The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all domestic and foreign subsidiaries. All material Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. There are no individual customers to whom sales are five percent or more of the Company’s consolidated sales. Due to the diverse group of customers throughout the world the Company does not consider itself exposed to any concentration of credit risks. The Company manufactures and markets its products throughout the world. Although certain risks and uncertainties exist the diversity and breadth of the Company’s products and geographic operations mitigate significantly the risk that adverse changes would materially affect the Company’s operating results. See the table of Business Segment Information “By Industry” and “By Geographic Area” on page 25 for further disclosure of business segment information. The Company also reports an Other Segment consisting of several business units which produce motion-control and fluid power system components for use primarily in the transportation industry and a business unit which designs and manufactures custom-engineered buildings. The products in this segment are marketed primarily through field sales employees and independent distributors. The Aerospace Segment produces hydraulic pneumatic and fuel systems and components which are utilized on virtually every domestic commercial military and general aviation aircraft and also performs a vital role in naval vessels land-based weapons systems satellites and space vehicles. This Segment serves original equipment and maintenance repair and overhaul customers worldwide. Aerospace Segment products are marketed by field sales employees and are sold directly to the manufacturer and to the end user. 26

Similarly one can change the state with y -directional Bloch vectors into the state with z -directional Bloch vectors without altering the diagonal property of the correla- tion term. In this reason it is reasonable to assume that the directions of the Bloch vectors are z -direction by writing r = (0 0 r ) and s = (0 0 s ) $^{4}$. In this case the arbitrary two-qubit 4 Even if r and s are not parallel with each other one can make them to be z -directional via an appropriate local-unitary transformation.

and a similar term would occur in the right-hand part of equation (4b). This contradicts our initial assumption that the electromagnetic field generated by electrical charges and the electromagnetic field generated by magnetic charges are described independently and hence with varying potentials A$_{e}$ and B$_{µ}$ we should not vary the terms of full action containing the effective potentials. The source-containing terms of equations (4b) (15b) make no sense to quantization of a free electromagnetic field in relativistic quantum field theory. Since a distinction between action (23) and an ordinary action without magnetic charges is not important from viewpoint of relativistic quantum field theory the Feynman rules for the calculation of the interaction cross-sections for elementary particles interacting with electrical or magnetic charges can be formulated by generalizing the known results of rela- tivistic quantum field theory for an electromagnetic field without magnetic charges (see for example [8] § 24). Operator S ( S -matrix) which relates amplitudes of the initial Φ ( −∞ ) and the final Φ ( ∞ ) states: – can be expressed via chronological exponent where L$_{I}$ ( x ) is Lagrangian of interaction and For the charged particle propagator we have an ordinary expression in terms of function D $^{c}$( x − y ) for scalar particle of mass m$_{n}$ – compare with [8] (15.17) (22.9): 9 Φ ( ∞ ) = S Φ ( −∞ ) (30) S = T { exp [ i ℏ ∫ L$_{I}$ ( x ) d $^{4}$x ]} (31) L$_{I}$ ( x ) = − 1 c 2 ( A k e + A k µ ) j$_{e k}$ − 1 c 2 ( B k µ + B k e ) j$_{µ k}$ (32) j k e = ∑ a ce$_{a}$ ¯ ψ$_{a}$γ $^{k}$ψ$_{a}$ j k µ = ∑ b cµ$_{b}$ ¯ ψ$_{b}$γ $^{k}$ψ$_{b}$ .

[0075] Particularly preferred diary! compounds are diphe› nyl carbonate 4-tert-butylphenyl phenyl carbonate di( 4-tert› butylphenyl)carbonate biphenyl-4-yl phenyl carbonate di(biphenyl-4-yl)carbonate 4-(1-methyl-1-phenylethyl)phe› nyl phenyl carbonate di[4-(1-methyl-1-phenylethyl)phenyl] carbonate and di(methylsalicyl)carbonate. [0076] Diphenyl carbonate is very particularly preferred. [0077] It is possible to use both one diary! carbonate and different diary! carbonates. [0078] The diary! carbonates may also be used with residual contents of the monohydroxyaryl compounds from which they were prepared. The residual contents of the mono› hydroxyaryl compounds may be up to 20% by weight pref› erably up to 10% by weight particularly preferably up to 5% by weight and very particularly preferably up to 2% by weight. [0079] Based on the dihydroxyaryl compound(s) in gen› eral 1.02 to 1.30 mo! of the diary! carbonate(s) preferably 1.04 to 1.25 mo! particularly preferably 1.045 to 1.22 mo! very particularly preferably 1.05 to 1.20 mo! per mole of dihydroxyaryl compound are used. It is also possible to use mixtures of the abovementioned diary! carbonates the molar amounts per mole of dihydroxyaryl compound which are mentioned above then being based on the total amount of the mixture of the diary! carbonates. [0080] For controlling or changing the terminal groups one or more monohydroxyaryl compound(s) which were not used for the preparation of the diary! carbonate(s) used can addi› tionally be employed. These may be those monohydroxyaryl compounds of the general formula (III) [0083] Such monohydroxyaryl compounds are for example 1- 2- or 3-methylphenol 2 4-dimethylphenol 4-ethylphenol 4-n-propylphenol 4-isopropylphenol 4-n› butylphenol 4-isobutylphenol 4-tert-butylphenol 4-n-pen› tylphenol 4-n-hexylphenol 4-isooctylphenol 4-n-nonylphe› nol 3-pentadecylphenol 4-cyclohexylphenol 4-(1-methyl› l-phenylethyl)phenol 4-phenylphenol 4-phenoxyphenol 4-(1-naphthyl)phenol 4-(2-naphthyl)phenol 4-tritylphenol methyl salicylate ethyl saticylate n-propyl saticylate isopro› pyl salicylate n-butyl salicylate isobutyl salicylate tert-butyl salicylate phenyl salicylate and benzyl salicylate. [0084] 4-tert-Butylphenol 4-isooctylphenol and 3-penta› decylphenol are preferred. [0085] The monohydroxyaryl compound(s) should be cho› sen so that the melting point thereof is above that of the monohydroxyaryl compound which was used for the prepa› ration of the diary! carbonate used. The monohydroxyaryl compound may be added at any time in the course of the reaction. It is preferably added at the beginning of the reac› tion. The proportion of free monohydroxyaryl compound may be 0.2 to 20 mo!% preferably 0.4 to 10 mo!% based on the dihydroxyaryl compound. [0086] It is also possible to change the terminal groups of the resulting polycarbonates by addition of at least one addi› tional diary! carbonate the base monohydroxyaryl com› pound of which has a higher boiling point than the base monohydroxyaryl compound of the diary! carbonate mainly used. Here too the additional diary! carbonate may be added at any time in the course of the reaction. It is preferably added at the beginning of the reaction. The proportion of the diary! carbonate having the higher-boiling base monohydroxyaryl compound based on the total amount of diary! carbonate used may be 1 to 40 mo! % preferably 1 to 20 mo! % and particularly preferably 1 to 10 mo! %. [0087] Catalysts which may be used in the melt transesteri› fication method for the preparation of polycarbonates are the basic catalysts known in the literature such as for example alkali metal and alkaline earth metal hydroxides and oxides and/or onium salts such as for example ammonium or phos› phonium salts. Preferably onium salts particularly preferably phosphonium salts are used in the synthesis. Such phospho› nium salts are for example those of the general formula (IV) (IV) (III) in which in which [0088] R 7 - $^{10 }$represent identical or different optionally sub› stituted C$_{1 }$-C$_{10}$-alkyl- CcC$_{14}$-aryl- C$_{7}$ -C$_{15}$-arylalkyl or C$_{5}$ -C$_{6}$-cycloalkyl radicals preferably methyl or C$_{6}$-C$_{14}$- aryl particularly preferably methyl or phenyl and [0089] x- represents an anion selected from the group con› sisting of hydroxide sulphate hydrogen sulphate bicar› bonate carbonate halide preferably chloride and alkylate or arylate of the formula-OR 11 in which R$^{11 }$represents an optionally substitutedCcC$_{14}$-aryl- C$_{7}$-C$_{15}$-arylalkyl or C$_{5}$ -Cccycloalkylrest C$_{1 }$-C$_{20}$-alkyl preferably phenyl.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (i) Property plant and equipment and depreciation (j) Leases (k) Pension and severance plans (l) Provision for loss on repurchase of computers (m) Income taxes (n) Earnings per share (o) Derivative financial instruments (p) Change in significant accounting policy 30 Property plant and equipment including renewals and additions are carried at cost. Depreciation is computed principally by the declining-balance method at rates based on the estimated useful lives of the respective assets which vary according to their general classification type of construction and function. Maintenance and repairs including minor renewals and improvements are charged to income as incurred. Receivable accounts recognized by the lessors in finance lease transactions are recorded as lease receivables and assets acquired by lessees in finance lease transactions are recorded in the corresponding asset accounts. The Company and most consolidated subsidiaries in Japan: Pension costs of major defined benefit plans are based on annual contributions calculated by a projected benefit valuation method. Accrued severance benefits are stated at the present value of the vested benefit obligation which would be required to be paid if all employees voluntarily terminated their services at the balance sheet dates. Most consolidated subsidiaries outside Japan: Pension costs of major defined benefit plans are calculated by a projected unit credit method. Certain computers manufactured by the Group are sold to Japan Electronic Computer Company Limited (“JECC”) and other leasing companies and financial institutions for leasing to the ultimate users under contracts which require that the Group repurchase the computers if they are returned by the users after a certain period. Based on past experience an estimated amount for the loss arising from such repurchases is provided at the point of sale and is charged to income. The Group has adopted the balance sheet liability method of tax effect accounting in order to recognize the effect of all temporary differences in the recognition of assets and liabilities for tax and financial reporting purposes. Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the respective years. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares after consideration of the dilutive effect of the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants and the conversion of convertible bonds. Gains and losses on derivative financial instruments used to reduce exposure on receivables and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized over the lives of the contracts. Gains and losses arising from the related receivables and liabilities are offset. The differentials to be paid or received relating to swap contracts are recognized over the lives of the contracts. Prior to the year ended March 31 1999 the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries in Japan treated finance leases in the same way as operating leases which is generally accepted in Japan. As Fujitsu Leasing Co. Ltd. became a consolidated subsidiary effective the year ended March 31 2000 the Group has adopted a method under which the Group as a lessee records the leased assets and the corresponding lease obligations and as a lessor records the lease receivables under finance leases. The effect on consolidated net income and total assets caused by this change was immaterial.

Le produit du gain B [k] et de l’exponentielle complexe peut être réalisé une fois pour toute évitant ainsi une opération complémentaire pour chaque échantillon Fr [k] [n] successif.

[0131] Les signaux précités peuvent ensuite alimenter un convertisseur numérique- analogique afin de permettre l’écoute des sons gauche B $_{l}$ et droit B$_{r}$ sur un casque d’écoute audio par exemple. [0132] L’opération de synthèse réalisée par les modules de synthèse 3 $_{0}$ et 3$_{1}$ inclut le cas échéant l’opération de synthèse hybride telle que décrite précédemment dans la description. [0133] Le procédé objet de l’invention peut avantageusement consister à dissocier les opérations d’égalisation et de retard lesquelles peuvent porter sur des sous- bandes de fréquence en nombre différent. En variante l’égalisation peut par exemple être effectuée dans le domaine hybride et le retard dans le domaine PQMF. [0134] On comprend que le procédé et le dispositif objets de l’invention bien que décrits pour la binauralisation de six canaux vers un casque d’écoute peuvent également s’appliquer pour effectuer la transauralisation c’est- à- dire la res- titution d’un champ sonore 3D sur une paire de hauts parleurs ou pour convertir de façon peu complexe une représentation de N canaux audio ou sources sonores issus d’un décodeur spatial ou de plusieurs décodeurs monophoniques vers N’ canaux audio disponibles au niveau de la restitution. Les opérations de filtrages peuvent alors être à multiplier le cas échéant. [0135] A titre d’exemple complémentaire non limitatif le procédé et le dispositif objets de l’invention peuvent être appliqués au cas d’un jeu 3D interactif dans les sons émis par les différents objets ou sources sonores lesquels peuvent alors être spatialisés en fonction de leur position relative par rapport à l’auditeur. Des échantillons sonores sont alors compressés et stockés dans différents fichiers ou différentes zones mémoires. Pour être joués et spatialisés ils sont partiellement décodés afin de rester dans le domaine codé et sont filtrés dans le domaine codé par des filtres binauraux adéquats de manière avantageuse en utilisant le procédé d’écrit conformément à l’objet de la présente invention. [0136] En effet en regroupant les opérations de décodage et de spatialisation la complexité globale du processus est fortement réduite sans toutefois entraîner de perte de qualité.

Severity of an Event Risk Flight Risk Assessment Tools Why Should I Use a FRAT? 1-10 Just thinking about this task may not consider the actual risk exposure. We may allow our personal desires to manipulate our risk assessment in order to meet personal goals. A formal process using pen and paper gives a perspective on the entire risk picture and is a good way to make a thorough analysis. “In the thick” is no time to try to mitigate a potentially hazardous outcome. When preparing for a flight or maintenance task pilots and maintenance technicians may set aside time to stop and think about the hazards involved. Because every flight has some level of risk it is critical that pilots can differentiate in advance between a low risk flight and a high- risk flight establish a review process and develop risk mitigation strategies. A Flight Risk Analysis Tool (FRAT) enables proactive hazard identification is easy to use and can visually depict risk. It is a tool many pilots use to make better go/no-go decisions. After all mitigating steps have been completed you may confront the possibility that a flight cannot be made or continued for a variety of reasons not only for yourself but also for your passengers. Remember that many pilots have ignored or failed to mitigate serious and high-risk hazards and a tragic fatal accident is all too often the result. Risk mitigation often begins days sometimes weeks before a planned flight. For example a pilot flying a single-engine piston aircraft without ice protection lives in the Pacific Northwest and is planning a trip in January for a scheduled speech. While keeping the long-range weather forecast in mind planning in advance gives the pilot several options to mitigate risk: There are almost an infinite number of actions you can take depending on the nature of the hazard or risk. For example the pilot flying from point A to point B (50 miles) in MVFR conditions has several ways to reduce risk: The final step in risk management is mitigation which is the payoff for accomplishing the entire risk management process and will often allow for mission accomplishment (the reason most pilots fly). By effectively mitigating known risks to acceptable levels pilots can complete their planned flights safely or ensure that alternate options are selected for those rare occasions when the planned or ongoing flight cannot be completed. Assessing risk may be the most difficult part of risk management and applying the terms described above to specific risks takes some practice. Once you have assessed risk likelihood and severity for all identified risks you can readily classify the overall risk level for that hazard. For example simply connecting the two factors as shown in Figure 1-4 indicates the risk is high and the pilot may consider whether to not fly or fly only after finding ways to mitigate eliminate or control the risk. The next element is the severity or consequence of a pilot’s action(s). It can relate to injury and/or damage. If the individual in the example above is not an instrument flight rules (IFR) pilot what are the consequences of encountering inadvertent IMC? In this case because the pilot is not IFR rated the consequences could be fatal. The following are guidelines for this assignment. ⦁ $_{Catastrophic—results in fatalities total loss }$ ⦁ $_{Critical—severe injury major damage }$ ⦁ $_{Marginal—minor injury minor damage }$ ⦁ $_{Negligible—less than minor injury less than minor system damage }$ ⦁ $_{Drive. }$ ⦁ $_{Wait for the weather to improve to good visual flight rules (VFR) conditions. }$ ⦁ $_{Take a pilot who is rated as an IFR pilot. }$ ⦁ $_{Delay the flight. }$ ⦁ $_{Cancel the flight. }$ ⦁ $_{Book commercial flight/transfer the risk to the airlines. }$ ⦁ $_{Change the date of the event to accommodate weather. }$ ⦁ $_{Cancel flight altogether. }$ ⦁ $_{Depart a day early from the Pacific Northwest to avoid an incoming low-pressure area that will bring low }$ IFR and certain icing conditions.

To maintain situational awareness an accurate perception must be attained of how the pilot helicopter environment and operation combine to affect the flight. Situation RISK ELEMENTS Environment Aircraft Pilot External Pressures Factors such as weather and airport conditions must be examined. The helicopter performance limitations equipment and airworthiness must be deter- mined. The purpose of the flight is a factor that influences the pilot’s decision on undertaking or continuing the flight. The pilot’s fitness to fly must be evaluated including com- petency in the helicopter currency and flight experience. Figure 13-5. Risk elements to evaluate in decision-making. 13-9 Four Risk Elements Risk Management controlled or eliminated. It is the possibility of loss or injury. The level of risk is measured by the number of people or resources affected (exposure) the extent of possible loss (severity) and the likelihood of loss (probability). A hazard can be a real or perceived condition event or circumstance that a pilot encounters. Learning how to identify hazards assess the degree of risk they pose and determine the best course of action is an important element of a safe flight. Instruction that integrates Single-Pilot Resource Management into flight training teaches aspiring pilots how to be more aware of potential risks in flying how to identify those risks clearly and how to manage them successfully. The importance of integrating available resources and learning effective SRM skills cannot be overemphasized. Ignoring safety issues can have fatal results. During each flight decisions must be made regarding events that involve interactions between the four risk elements—the PIC the aircraft the environment and the operation. The decision-making process involves an evaluation of each of these risk elements to achieve an accurate perception of the flight situation. [Figure 13-5] Risk management is a formalized way of dealing with hazards. It is the logical process of weighing the potential cost of risks from hazards against the possible benefits of allowing those risks from hazards to stand unmitigated. It is a decision-making process designed to identify hazards systematically assess the degree of risk and determine the best course of action. Once risks are identified they must be assessed. The risk assessment determines the degree of risk (negligible low medium or high) and whether the degree of risk is worth the outcome of the planned activity. If the degree of risk is “acceptable ” the planned activity may then be undertaken. Once the planned activity is started consideration must then be given whether to continue. Pilots must have preplanned viable alternatives available in the event the original flight cannot be accomplished as planned. One of the most important decisions that a PIC must make is the go/no-go decision. Evaluating each of these risk elements can help a pilot decide whether a flight should be conducted or continued. In the following situations the four risk elements and how they affect decision-making are evaluated. Pilot—A pilot must continually make decisions about personal competency condition of health mental and emotional state level of fatigue and many other variables. A situation to consider: a pilot is called early in the morning to make a long flight. With only a few hours of sleep and congestion that indicates the possible onset of a cold is that pilot safe to fly? Aircraft—A pilot frequently bases decisions to fly on Two defining elements of risk management are hazard and risk. • A hazard is a present condition event object or circumstance that could lead to or contribute to an unplanned or undesired event such as an accident. It is a source of danger. For example binding in the antitorque pedals represents a hazard. • Risk is the future impact of a hazard that is not

Windshield wiper assembly/installation on a transport catgory aircraft. The motor-converter is mountd under the aircraft skin. Chemical Rain Repellant Windshield Surface Seal Coating 15-28 Some aircraft models use a surface seal coating also called hydrophobic coating that is on the outside of the pilot’s/ copilot’s windshield. [Figure 15-42] The word hydrophobic means to repel or not absorb water. The windshield hydrophobic coating is on the external surface of the windows (windshields). The coatings cause raindrops to bead up and roll off allowing the flight crew to see through the windshield with very little distortion. The hydrophobic windshield coating reduces the need for wipers and gives the flight crew better visibility during heavy rain. This system should only be used in very wet conditions. The rain repellant system should not be operated on dry A rain repellant system permits application of the chemical repellant by a switch or push button in the cockpit. The proper amount of repellant is applied regardless of how long the switch is held. On some systems a solenoid valve controlled by a time delay module meters the repellent to a nozzle which sprays it on the outside of the windshield. Two such units exist — one each for the forward glass of the pilot and copilot. [Figure 15-41] Water poured onto clean glass spreads out evenly. Even when the glass is held at a steep angle or subjected to air velocity the glass remains wetted by a thin film of water. However when glass is treated with certain chemicals a transparent film is formed that causes the water to behave very much like mercury on glass. The water draws up into beads that cover only a portion of the glass and the area between beads is dry. The water is readily removed from the glass. This principle lends itself quite naturally to removing rain from aircraft windshields. The high-velocity slipstream continually removes the water beads leaving a large part of the window dry. windows because heavy undiluted repellant restricts window visibility. Should the system be operated inadvertently do not operate the windshield wipers or rain clearing system as this tends to increase smearing. Also the rain repellant residues caused by application in dry weather or very light rain can cause staining or minor corrosion of the aircraft skin. To prevent this any concentrated repellant or residue should be removed by a thorough fresh water rinse at the earliest opportunity. After application the repellant film slowly deteriorates with continuing rain impingement. This makes periodic reapplication necessary. The length of time between applications depends upon rain intensity the type of repellant used and whether windshield wipers are used.

Plan assets were invested in the following classes of securities (none of which were securities of the company): The expected return on assets is developed in consideration of the anticipated duration of investment period for assets held by the plan the allocation of assets in the plan and the historical returns for plan assets. Estimated future benefit payments under the plans are as follows (dollars in thousands): In conjunction with the retirement of the former Chairman of the Board in December 2004 the company entered into an agreement to settle obligations relating to the former Chairman’s (1) Sum of quarters may not equal the total for the year due to changes in the number of shares outstanding during the year. (2) The 2003 fourth quarter included an adjustment to the LIFO provision for inventory which increased pretax earnings by $0.6 million and net earnings by $0.4 million or $0.04 per share. pension. As part of this settlement the company agreed to make payments aggregating to $7.6 million which will be funded in part by existing plan assets in the first quarter of 2005 to fully settle all pension obligations due to the former Chairman. Contributions to the directors’ plan beyond the funding of the Chairman pension settlement are based upon actual retirement benefits for directors as they retire. These funding requirements are expected to amount to $0.2 million in 2005. Contributions under the union plan are funded in accordance with provisions of The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. Expected contributions to be made in 2005 are $0.3 million. (B) 401K SAVINGS PLANS The company maintains a defined contribution plan for all employees in the United States other than union employees at the Elgin Illinois facility which participates in a separate plan. The discretionary profit sharing contributions approved relating to the plan years ending 2004 2003 and 2002 for the profit sharing and 401K plan amounted to $800 000 $750 000 and $600 000 respectively. In conjunction with the freeze on future benefits under the defined benefit plan for union employees at the Elgin Illinois facility the company established a 401K savings plan for this group of employees. The company makes contributions to this plan in accordance with its agreement with the union. These contributions amounted to $221 400 in 2004 $157 400 in 2003 and $82 500 in 2002. 35 (14) Quarterly Data (Unaudited) 2004 2004 2003 2003 Union Director Union Director (dollars in thousands) Plan Plans Plan Plans Equity 28% 7% 20% 38% Fixed Income 59 93 56 62 Real Estate 13 — 24 — 100% 100% 100% 100% Union Director Plan Plans 2005 $ 276 $ 7 749 2006 281 — 2007 278 20 2008 273 20 2009 257 20 2010 thru 2014 1 349 300 (dollars in thousands except per share data) 1st 2nd 3rd 4th Total year 2004 Net sales $ 62 463 $ 72 913 $ 70 620 $ 65 119 $ 271 115 Gross profit 23 176 28 793 26 394 24 265 102 628 Income from operations 10 104 14 653 12 582 920 38 259 Net earnings (loss) $ 5 591 $ 8 289 $ 10 368 $ (660) $ 23 588 Basic earnings per share (1) $ 0.61 $ 0.90 $ 1.12 $ (0.07) $ 2.56 Diluted earnings (loss) per share (1) $ 0.56 $ 0.82 $ 1.03 $ (0.07) $ 2.38 2003 Net sales $ 56 393 $ 65 408 $ 60 894 $ 59 505 $ 242 200 Gross profit (2) 19 052 22 650 22 633 21 518 85 853 Income from operations (2) 6 407 9 644 9 986 8 979 35 016 Net earnings (2) $ 2 609 $ 4 597 $ 5 651 $ 5 841 $ 18 698 Basic earnings per share (1)(2) $ 0.29 $ 0.51 $ 0.63 $ 0.64 $ 2.06 Diluted earnings per share (1)(2) $ 0.28 $ 0.49 $ 0.59 $ 0.60 $ 1.99

The Company follows a policy of accelerating international currency settlements to manage its foreign exchange exposure. Accordingly the Company enters into foreign currency hedging transactions only in limited locations where there are regulatory or commercial limitations on the Company’s ability to move money freely around the world. Such hedging activity during 2002 2001 and 2000 was insignificant. Net foreign currency gains realized during 2002 were $70. Net foreign currency losses realized during 2001 were $366. Net foreign currency gains realized during 2000 were $309. Comprehensive income consists of net income and other gains and losses affecting share- holders’ equity that under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States are excluded from net income. For the Company these consist of foreign currency translation gains and losses net of related income tax effects. The Company is organized functionally in geographic operating segments. Accord- ingly management focuses its attention on revenues net revenues operating income identifiable assets capital expenditures depreciation and amortization and equity generated in each of these geographical areas when evaluating effectiveness of geographic management.

Change the Cloud Premigration Rank in Storage Group (SG) and Partition in the Storage Class (SC) constructs to allow copies to be sent to the selected cloud repository. b. Determine the list of existing private virtual volumes that are intended to be reallocated to the cloud storage layer. A user can list the status of virtual volumes by using the BVIR VOLUME STATUS command. The output of the resulting report can be filtered and then used to create a list of virtual volumes that should be sent to the cloud. c. Use the library request interface to process each virtual volume in volume list so that it can be moved to the cloud storage system: LI REQ PARTRFSH <volser> MMOUNT This option updates the cloud attributes of target virtual volumes by mimicking a mount/demount so the user does not need to specifically exercise such operation for new attributes to occur.

For more information see 9.3.8 “Constructs icon” on page 453. For more information about Copy Mode see 4.2.2 “Defining grid copy mode control” on page 158. A user can list the status of virtual volumes by using the BVIR VOLUME STATUS command and verify which volumes were premigrated to cloud by using the BVIR CLOUD VOLUME MAP command. The output of the resulting reports can be filtered and then used to create a list of virtual volumes that are copied to the new TS7700C cluster. The following IBM Tape Tools are available to support this process: The Copy Refresh command can be submitted from a host or the MI and the data is copied only in a logical level through the gridlinks. No Host I/O ia done through the FICON adapters nor bandwidth consumption through grid links for copies required and all data in the TCDB and tape management remain unchanged. This method can be used only if the data migration is inside a grid with target volumes previously premigrated to the cloud storage repository. The BVIR AUDIT parameter provides an easy method to ensure that all data is copied. 308 IBM TS7700 Release 5.0 Guide

PART I The following table sets forth information with respect to local telephone usage for the periods indicated. (1) Includes minutes from local calls made on pay telephones. (2) Calls to our HiNet internet service which are recorded as part of our internet services are not included in our local call minutes or revenues. Minutes from local calls declined due to traffic migration to mobile services as well as VoIP services. However we believe the rate of migration of traffic from fixed communication services to VoIP and mobile communications services is slowing. We charge our local telephone service customers a monthly fee and a usage fee. We also charge separate fees for some value-added services. The monthly fees for our primary tariff plans are NT$70 with a deductible on usage fees of NT$25 for residential customers and NT$295 for business customers. Our primary peak time usage fee is NT$1.6 for three minutes or NT$2.7 for ten minutes depending on the tariff plan selected by the customer and our off-peak usage fee is NT$1.0 for ten minutes. Our usage fees are the same for residential and business customers. The following table sets forth information with respect to the average local telephone usage charge per minute for the periods indicated. Average per minute usage charges remained flat at around NT$0.74 per minute in 2008 2009 and 2010. Part of our competitive strategy is to offer customers innovative products and services intended to both secure customer loyalty and enhance revenues. In particular our value-added services are designed to increase our call revenues by increasing the number of calls our customers make and by receiving fees for usage of the value- added services. These services include call waiting caller identification call forwarding three-party calls ring back tone and voicemail. We provide domestic long distance telephone services in Taiwan. Total revenues from domestic long distance telephone services comprised 4.2% 3.7% and 3.3% of our revenues in 2008 2009 and 2010 respectively. Our average market share in the domestic long distance market was approximately 85.2% 82.9% and 76.1% in 2008 2009 and 2010 respectively. Residential customers accounted for 59.2% of our domestic long distance revenues in 2010.

Title to our oil and natural gas properties is subject to royalty overriding royalty carried and other similar interests and contractual arrangements customary in the oil and gas industry liens incident to operating agreements and for current taxes not yet due and other minor encumbrances. All of our oil and natural gas properties are pledged as collateral under our bank credit facility. As is customary in the oil and gas industry we are generally able to retain our ownership interest in undeveloped acreage by production of existing wells by drilling activity which establishes commercial reserves sufficient to maintain the lease by payment of delay rentals or by the exercise of contractual extension rights. We anticipate retaining ownership of a substantial amount of the acreage with primary terms expiring in 2014 through drilling activity or by extending the leases. The market for our production of oil and natural gas depends on factors beyond our control including the extent of domestic production and imports of oil and natural gas the proximity and capacity of natural gas pipelines and other transportation facilities demand for oil and natural gas the marketing of competitive fuels and the effects of state and federal regulation. The oil and gas industry also competes with other industries in supplying the energy and fuel requirements of industrial commercial and individual consumers. Our oil production is currently sold under short-term contracts with a duration of six months or less. The contracts require the purchasers to purchase the amount of oil production that is available at prices tied to the spot oil markets. Our natural gas production is primarily sold under contracts with various terms and priced on first of the month index prices or on daily spot market prices. Approximately 87% of our 2013 natural gas sales were priced utilizing first of the month index prices and approximately 13% were priced utilizing daily spot prices. BP Energy Company and its subsidiaries and Shell Oil Company and its subsidiaries accounted for 51% and 36% respectively of our total 2013 sales. The loss of either of these customers would not have a material adverse effect on us as there is an available market for our crude oil and natural gas production from other purchasers. We have entered into longer term marketing arrangements to ensure that we have adequate transportation to get our natural gas production in North Louisiana to the markets. As an alternative to constructing our own gathering and treating facilities we have entered into a variety of gathering and treating agreements with midstream companies to transport our natural gas to the long-haul natural gas pipelines. We have entered into certain agreements with a major natural gas marketing company to provide us with firm transportation for 55 000 MMBtus per day for our North Louisiana natural gas production on the long-haul pipelines. These agreements expire from 2015 to 2019. To the extent we are not able to deliver the contracted natural gas volumes we may be responsible for the transportation costs. Our production available to deliver under these agreements in North Louisiana is expected to exceed the firm transportation arrangements we have in place. In addition the marketing company managing the firm transportation is required to use reasonable efforts to supplement our deliveries should we have a shortfall during the term of the agreements. The oil and gas industry is highly competitive. Competitors include major oil companies other independent energy companies and individual producers and operators many of which have financial resources personnel and facilities substantially greater than we do. We face intense competition for the acquisition of oil and natural gas properties and leases for oil and gas exploration. 20 Competition Markets and Customers

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS VORNADO REALTY TRUST 33 conjunction with Mr. Macnow’s June 2002 exercise of options to purchase 225 000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The loan is collateralized by assets with a value of not less than two times the loan amount. In 2002 as a result of the decline in the value of the options Mr Macnow supplemented the collateral with cash and marketable securities. One other executive officer of the Company has a loan outstanding pursuant to an employment agreement totaling $500 000 at December 31 2003. The loan matures in April 2005 and bears interest at the applicable Federal rate provided (4.5% at December 31 2003). The Company owns 33.1% of Alexander’s. Mr. Roth and Mr . Fascitelli are Officers and Directors of Alexander’s. The Company provides various services to Alexander’s in accordance with management development and leasing agreements and the Company has made loans to Alexander’s aggregating $124 000 000 at December 31 2003. These agreements and the loans ar described in Note 5. Investments in Partially-Owned Entities to the Company’s consolidated financial statements in this annual report. In 2002 the Company constructed a $16.3 million community facility and low-income residential housing development (the “30th Street Venture”) in order to receive 163 728 squar e feet of transferable development rights generally referred to as “air rights”. The Company donated the building to a charitable or ganization. The Company sold 106 796 square feet of these air rights to thir parties at an average price of $120 per square foot. An additional 28 821 square feet of air rights was sold to Alexander’s at a price of $120 per squar foot for use at Alexander’s 59th Street development project (the “59th Street Project”). In each case the Company received cash in exchange for air rights. The Company identified third party buyers for the remaining 28 111 square feet of air rights related to the 30th Street Venture. These third party buyers wanted to use the air rights for the development of two projects located in the general ar ea of 86th Street which was not within the required geographical radius of the construction site nor in the same Community Board as the low-income housing and community facility project. The 30th Street Venture asked Alexander’ to sell 28 111 square feet of the air rights it already owned to the third party buyers (who could use them) and the 30th Street Venture would r eplace them with 28 111 square feet of air rights. In October 2002 the Company sold 28 111 square feet of air rights to Alexander’ s for an aggregate sales price of $3 058 000 (an average of $109 per square foot). Alexander’ then sold an equal amount of air rights to the third party buyers for an aggregate sales price of $3 339 000 (an average of $119 per square foot). The Company manages and leases the real estate assets of Interstate Properties pursuant to a management agreement for which the Company receives an annual fee equal to 4% of base r ent and percentage rent and certain other commissions. The management agreement has a term of one year and is automatically renewable unless terminated by either of the parties on sixty days’ notice at the end of the term. Although the management agreement was not negotiated at arms length the Company believes based upon comparable fees charged by other r eal estate companies that its terms are fair to the Company. The Company earned $703 000 $747 000 and $1 133 000 of management fees under the management agreement for the years ended December 31 2003 2002 and 2001. In addition during fiscal years 2003 2002 and 2001 as a result of a previously existing leasing arrangement with Alexander’s Alexander’ s paid to Interstate $587 000 $703 000 and $522 000 respectively for the leasing and other services actually rendered by the Company. Upon receipt of these payments Interstate promptly paid them over to the Company without retaining any inter est therein. This arrangement was terminated in 2003 and all payments by Alexander’s for these leasing and other services ar made directly to the Company.

Solid-State Devices Semiconductors Solid-state devices began replacing vacuum tube electron control valves in the late 1950s. Their long life reliability and resilience in harsh environments make them ideal for use in avionics. The key to solid-state electronic devices is the electrical behavior of semiconductors. To understand semiconductors a review of what makes a material an insulator or a conductor follows. Then an explanation for how materials of limited conductivity are constructed and some of their many uses is explained. Semiconductor devices are the building blocks of modern electronics and avionics. An atom of any material has a characteristic number of electrons orbiting the nucleus of the atom. The arrangement of the electrons occurs in somewhat orderly orbits called rings or shells. The closest shell to the nucleus can only contain two electrons. If the atom has more than two electrons they are found in the next orbital shell away from the nucleus. This second shell can only hold eight electrons. If the atom has more than eight electrons they orbit in a third shell farther out from the nucleus. This third shell is filled with eight electrons and then a fourth shell starts to fill if the element still has more electrons. However when the fourth shell contains eight electrons the number of electrons in the third shell begins to increase again until a maximum of 18 is reached. [Figure 11-13] The outer most orbital shell of any atom’s electrons is called the valence shell. The number of electrons in the valence shell determines the chemical properties of the material. When the valence shell has the maximum number of electrons it is complete and the electrons tend to be bound strongly to the nucleus. Materials with this characteristic are chemically stable. It takes a large amount of force to move the electrons in this situation from one atom valence shell to that of another. Since the movement of electrons is called electric current substances with complete valence shells are known as good insulators because they resist the flow of electrons (electricity). [Figure 11-14] In atoms with an incomplete valence shell that is those without the maximum number of electrons in their valence shell the electrons are bound less strongly to the nucleus. Not all materials are pure elements that is substances made up of one kind of atom. Compounds occur when two or more different type s of atoms combine. They create a new substance with different characteristics than any of the component elements When compounds form valence shells and their maximum number of electrons remain the rule of physics. The new compound molecule may either share electrons to fill the valence shell or free electrons may exist to make it a good conductor. Electrons in incomplete valence shells may also move freely from valence shell to valence shell of different atoms or compounds. In this case these are known as free electrons. As stated the movement of electrons is known as electric current or current flow. When electrons move freely from atom to atom or compound to compound the substance is known as a conductor. [Figure 11-15] The material is chemically disposed to combine with other materials or other ide ntical atoms to fill in the unstable valence configuration and bring the number of electrons in the valence shell to maximum. Two or more substances may share the electrons in their valence shells and form a covalent bond. A covalent bond is the method by which atoms complete their valence shells by sharing valence electrons with other atoms. Figure 11-14. Elements w ith full valence shells are good insulators. Most insulators used in aviation are compounds of two or more elements that share electrons to fill their valence shells. Figure 11-15. The valence shells of elements that are common conductors have one (or three) electrons. Figure 11-13.

A sufficient condition is provided in Zinde-Walsh 2010 (Theorem 4). When identification is based on (b) of Theorem 1 here the model class needs to be restricted to include only measurement error distributions with φ − 1 in Φ( m V ) for some m V. Equivalently when identification is based on (a) the sufficient condition is for the class of models to be restricted to those where the latent factor distribution is such that γ − 1 ∈ Φ( m V ). These conditions exclude models where both g and f are supersmooth with supp( γ ) unbounded leading to a supersmooth distribution for w$_{1}$. Al- though these conditions are only shown to be sufficient an example below (from Zinde-Walsh 2009 and 2010) demonstrates that a Gaussian distribution (that violates these conditions) fails well-posedness in the weak topology of generalized functions in S ′ and therefore in any stronger topology or metric (uniform L$_{1}$ etc. ) .

A simple AOS connection to the DS8880 is shown in Figure 15-9. For more information about AOS prerequisites and installation see IBM Assist On-site for Storage Overview REDP-4889. AOS is an embedded feature on DS8700 DS8800 DS8870 and DS8880. The AOS software package is preinstalled and customized on the Management Console. This technique eliminates the need to provide an additional system to operate an AOS Gateway. Embedded AOS is a secure fast broadband form of remote access. You can choose to allow unattended or attended remote access sessions. If you select attended remote access sessions IBM Support contacts you or the storage operator to start the support session through DS CLI or the DS GUI. The IBM SSR configures AOS during the installation or a later point in time by entering information that is provided in the inbound remote support worksheet. The worksheets can be found in the Installation and Planning Guide or online in the Planning Section of the IBM DS8880 Knowledge Center at: In addition your firewall needs to allow outbound traffic from the HMC to the AOS Infrastructure. The inbound remote support worksheet provides information about the required firewall changes. http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ST5GLJ_8.2.0/com.ibm.storage.ssic.help. doc/f2c_custmztnwkshts_1xznxr.html For more information about AOS see IBM Assist On-site for Storage Overview REDP-4889. 482 IBM DS8880 Architecture and Implementation Figure 15-9 DS8880 AOS connection 15.6.2 DS8880 embedded AOS

ALTER TABLESPACE Statement With MyISAM tables if you do not change the AUTO_INCREMENT column the sequence number is not affected. If you drop an AUTO_INCREMENT column and then add another AUTO_INCREMENT column the numbers are resequenced beginning with 1. When replication is used adding an AUTO_INCREMENT column to a table might not produce the same ordering of the rows on the replica and the source. This occurs because the order in which the rows are numbered depends on the specific storage engine used for the table and the order in which the rows were inserted. If it is important to have the same order on the source and replica the rows must be ordered before assigning an AUTO_INCREMENT number. Assuming that you want to add an AUTO_INCREMENT column to the table t1 the following statements produce a new table t2 identical to t1 but with an AUTO_INCREMENT column: CREATE TABLE t2 (id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY) SELECT * FROM t1 ORDER BY col1 col2; CREATE TABLE t2 LIKE t1; ALTER TABLE t2 ADD id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY; INSERT INTO t2 SELECT * FROM t1 ORDER BY col1 col2; This assumes that the table t1 has columns col1 and col2 . This set of statements also produces a new table t2 identical to t1 with the addition of an AUTO_INCREMENT column: To guarantee the same ordering on both source and replica all columns of t1 must be referenced in the ORDER BY clause. Regardless of the method used to create and populate the copy having the AUTO_INCREMENT column the final step is to drop the original table and then rename the copy: DROP TABLE t1; ALTER TABLE t2 RENAME t1; Important 13.1.10 ALTER TABLESPACE Statement ALTER [UNDO] TABLESPACE tablespace_name NDB only: {ADD | DROP} DATAFILE ’ file_name ’ [INITIAL_SIZE [=] size] [WAIT] InnoDB and NDB: [RENAME TO tablespace_name ] InnoDB only: [AUTOEXTEND_SIZE [=] ’ value ’] [SET {ACTIVE | INACTIVE}] [ENCRYPTION [=] {’Y’ | ’N’}] InnoDB and NDB: [ENGINE [=] engine_name ] Reserved for future use: [ENGINE_ATTRIBUTE [=] ’ string ’] This statement is used with NDB and InnoDB tablespaces.

The most expeditious method of notification to the NTSB by the operator will be determined by the circumstances existing at that time. The NTSB has advised that any of the following would be considered examples of the type of notification that would be acceptable: (a) Direct telephone notification. (b) Telegraphic notification. (c) Notification to the FAA who would in turn notify the NTSB by direct communication; i.e. dis- patch or telephone. c. Items to be Included in Notification. The notification required above must contain the following information if available: 1. Type nationality and registration marks of the aircraft. 2. Name of owner and operator of the aircraft. 3. Name of the pilot-in-command. 4. Date and time of the accident or incident. 5. Last point of departure and point of intended landing of the aircraft. 6. Position of the aircraft with reference to some easily defined geographical point. 7. Number of persons aboard number killed and number seriously injured. 8. Nature of the accident or incident the weather and the extent of damage to the aircraft so far as is known; and (c) A report on an incident for which notification is required as described in subpara- graph a(1) must be filed only as requested by an authorized representative of the NTSB. 2. Each crewmember if physically able at the time the report is submitted must attach a statement setting forth the facts conditions and circumstances relating to the accident or incident as they appeared. If the crewmember is incapacitated a statement must be submitted as soon as physically possible. 1. The operator of an aircraft must file with the NTSB Field Office nearest the accident or incident any report required by this section. 2. The NTSB Field Offices are listed under U.S. Government in the telephone directories in the following cities: Anchorage AK; Atlanta GA; Chicago IL; Denver CO; Fort Worth TX; Los Angeles CA; Miami FL; Parsippany NJ; Seattle WA. a. Purpose and Data Uses. The primary purpose of the Near Midair Collision (NMAC) Reporting Program is to provide information for use in enhancing the safety and efficiency of the National Airspace System. Data obtained from NMAC reports are used by the FAA to improve the quality of FAA services to users and to develop programs policies and procedures aimed at the reduction of NMAC occurrences. All NMAC reports are thoroughly investigated by Flight Standards Facilities in coordination with Air Traffic Facilities. Data from these investigations are transmitted to FAA Head- quarters in Washington DC where they are compiled and analyzed and where safety programs and recommendations are developed. b. Definition. A near midair collision is defined as an incident associated with the operation of an aircraft in which a possibility of collision occurs as a result of proximity of less than 500 feet to another aircraft or a report is received from a pilot or a flight crew member stating that a collision hazard existed between two or more aircraft. c. Reporting Responsibility. It is the responsi- bility of the pilot and/or flight crew to determine whether a near midair collision did actually occur and if so to initiate a NMAC report. Be specific as 1. The operator must file a report on NTSB Form 6120.1 or 6120.2 available from NTSB Field Offices or from the NTSB Washington DC 20594: (a) Within 10 days after an accident; (b) When after 7 days an overdue aircraft is still missing; 9.

Financial Review 22 The Procter & Gamble Company and Subsidiaries impact from divestitures. Volume declines and commodity- related pricing actions in coffee drove an 8% decrease in net sales to $3.80 billion. Net earnings grew 16% to $384 million as broad-based cost reductions more than offset declining volumes. accounting policies affecting the Consolidated Balance Sheet Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and Consolidated Statement of Earnings. Due to the nature of the Company’s business these estimates generally are not considered highly uncertain at the time of estimation – meaning they are not expected to result in a period-to-period change that would materially affect the Company’s results of operations or financial condition. The fourth quarter marked the completion of the Jif and Crisco spin-off. This transaction which is accounted for simi- lar to a dividend delivered excellent value to shareholders – equivalent to approximately $0.60 per share. The Company does apply certain key accounting policies as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These key accounting policies govern revenue recognition restructuring income taxes and certain employee benefits. In 2001 food and beverage unit volume declined 10% including a 2% impact from divestitures. Unit volume was negatively affected by reduced trade merchandising and the impact of snacks pricing actions in North America and West- ern Europe and the divestiture of the institutional shortening and oils business. Net sales were $4.14 billion down 11%. Net earnings were $332 million down 9% versus 2000. Revenue is recognized when it is realized or realizable and earned. The vast majority of the Company’s revenue relates to sale of inventory to customers and revenue is recognized when title and the risks and rewards of ownership pass to the customer. Given the nature of the Company’s business and the applicable rules guiding revenue recognition the Company’s revenue recognition practices do not contain estimates that materially affect results of operations. The corporate segment includes both operating and non- operating elements such as financing and investing activities certain benefit costs restructuring charges segment eliminations and other general corporate items. Corporate includes adjustments from management reporting conventions to conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These primarily affect the treatment of entities over which the Company exerts significant influence but does not control and income taxes which are reflected in the business segments using estimated local statutory tax rates. Restructuring charges relate to the restructuring program that began in 1999. The Company provides forward-looking information about the overall program including estimated costs and savings. Such disclosures represent management’s best estimate but do require significant estimates about the program that may change over time. However the specific reserves recorded in each year under the restructuring program are not considered highly uncertain see Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Under SFAS No. 109 ”Accounting for Income Taxes ” income taxes are recorded based on the current year amounts payable or refundable as well as the consequences of events that give rise to deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences in how those events are treated for tax purposes (see Note 11). The Company bases its estimate of deferred tax assets and liabilities on current tax laws and rates and in certain cases business plans and other expectations about future outcomes. Corporate results reflect a decrease in one-time gains from the Company’s non-strategic divestiture program. Moreover reduced corporate hedging gains versus 2001 were partially offset by decreased restructuring costs lower interest expense and the discontinuation of amortizing goodwill and certain indefinite-lived intangibles. In 2001 corporate results reflect increased restructuring costs higher benefit costs and certain tax impacts not reflected in the businesses. These were partially offset by one-time gains from the Company’s divestiture program reduced overhead spending and corporate hedging gains. The Company makes various estimates when applying Changes in existing regulatory tax laws and rates may affect Critical Accounting Policies Income Taxes Restructuring Revenue Recognition Corporate

This will allow the ground crew to give direction to the pilot after a missed attempt such as 10 feet forward or aft of the pilot’s established reference point. 6. Upon hooking the banner the airplane climbs at a minimum speed of 1.2 times the stall speed and maximum engine power is applied. 7. Upon reaching 225–250 feet AGL maintain proper forward momentum and altitude. Although the climb is stopped the aircraft may remain in a nose-high attitude. 8. Full power and adequate airspeed are maintained until reaching 1 000 feet AGL. B. The Banner Drop. (All procedures should be adjusted for different aircraft performance.) 1. The airplane approaches the designated drop zone at 300 feet AGL. 2. Upon reaching the drop zone full power is applied prior to releasing the banner and minimum airspeed should be 1.2 times the stall speed. Full power should be maintained after the banner release handle is activated. This is a safety procedure in the event the banner does not release and snags an object. The pilot would then have power to assist in recovery. Caution should be exercised as to not exceed 1.5 times the stall speed of the aircraft. 3. Rotation is initiated prior to dropping the banner. 4. When the airplane is established on the up-line a delay of approximately 3 seconds is incorporated into the maneuver to allow the banner to reach its lowest altitude. 5. After the banner is released the pilot should be prepared to hold the controls in position as the nose will pitch up because of the reduction of drag after banner release. 6.

mass function of collapsed objects well enough for the purpose in this paper to see how the interaction between DE and DM influences cluster number counts. The comoving number density of collapsed dark halos of mass M in the mass interval dM at a given redshift of collapse is given by [39] where ρ$_{m}$ is the comoving mean matter density at a given redshift. In most cases it is a constant and equals to the present mean matter density but this is not true when DE interacts with DM [35]. The quantity σ = σ ( R z ) here is the variance smoothed over radius R . It has an explicit form [41] where σ$_{8}$ is the variance over a sphere with radius R = 8 h − $^{1}$Mpc and D ( z ) is the growth function defined by D ( z ) = δ$_{m}$ ( z ) /δ$_{m}$ (0). The index γ is a function of the mass scale and the shape parameter Γ of the matter power spectrum [41] We will use Γ = 0 . 3 throughout our analysis. The radius R at given M can be calculated by the relation [41] where ρ 0 c is critical density at present and M$_{s}$ is the solar mass. The Press-Schechter formalism presents us the comoving number density of halos which can be compared with astronomical data. In order to do the comparison we calculate the all sky number of halos per unit of redshift in the mass bin where the comoving volume element per unit redshift is dV/dzd Ω = r $^{2}$( z ) /H ( z ) and r ( z ) is the comoving distance r ( z ) = ∫ z 0 dz ′ H ( z $_{)}$. In the next section we will present numerical results to see the effect of the interaction between DE and DM. In each situation we will study the cases with homogeneous and inhomogeneous DE distributions. When the DE is distributed inhomogeneously it will participate the collapse and the structure formation. We are not going to seek precise confrontations with observational data in this work but to understand the influence of coupling between dark sectors on cluster number counts. 12 dN dz = ∫ d Ω dV dzd Ω ∫ n ( M ) dM (45) R = 0 . 951 h − $^{1}$Mpc ( Mh 10 $^{12}$ρ$_{m}$ /ρ 0 $_{c}$M$_{s}$ ) 1 / 3 (44) γ ( R ) = (0 . 3Γ + 0 . 2) [ 2 . 92 + log$_{10}$ ( R 8 h − $^{1}$Mpc )] .

results from the fact that (irrespective of the values of ξ β and J ) for µ$_{L}$ = α = µ$_{R}$ all sites are half occupied n$_{j}$ ≡ 〈 0 | a † $_{j}$a$_{j}$ | 0 〉 = 1 / 2 and this yields via Friedel’s rule G = G 0 sin $^{2}$( πn 0 ) [38] a perfect transmission ( G = G 0 ). Numerically the result G = G 0 on resonance was obtained by means of time-dependent density matrix renormalization group calculations [37]. Our results for the on-resonance case at β = ξ are presented in Fig. 2a. As visible there even the smallest possible extended molecule ( N = 4) represents a “sufficiently large” extended molecule enabling to accurately reproduce the exact result. Indeed even for the strongest coupling shown in Fig. 2a ( J = 10 which is in fact unrealistically strong) the numerical results deviate from the exact value G = G 0 by ≃ 13%. As expected from the physical analysis backing the approximation of a sufficiently large extended molecule Fig. 2 reveals that the deviation from the exact result diminishes with increasing sizes; for the next smallest size ( N = 6) the error is at most 5%. Because G = G 0 holds on resonance even for the uncorrelated case ( J = 0) where the results are anyway independent on the size of the extended molecule (cf. Sect. I) one might suspect that the very weak size-independence displayed in Fig. 2a does not demonstrate the validity of the approximation of a sufficiently large extended molecule but rather that the electron correlations themselves are weak. To illustrate that this is not the case we present in Fig. 2b results for the conductance out of resonance ( α = ε$_{F}$ ) and realistic moderately strong Coulomb strength J = 2Γ = 4 (and equal to the electrode bandwidth 4 ξ = 4).

Air flow to vacuum pump Air flow from vacuum pump Spring Gate check valve open Gate check valve closed 10-51 Air filter—A master air filter screens foreign matter from the air flowing through all the gyro instruments. It is an extremely import filter requiring regular maintenance. Clogging of the master filter reduces airflow and causes a lower reading on the suction gauge. Each instrument is also provided with individual filters. In systems with no master filter that rely Restrictor valve—Since the turn needle of the turn and bank indicator operates on less vacuum than that required by the other instruments the vacuum in the main line must be reduced for use by this instrument. An in-line restrictor valve performs this function. This valve is either a needle valve or a spring-loaded regulating valve that maintains a constant reduced vacuum for the turn-and-bank indicator. Selector valve—In twin-engine aircraft having vacuum pumps driven by both engines the alternate pump can be selected to provide vacuum in the event of either engine or pump failure with a check valve incorporated to seal off the failed pump. Twin-engine aircraft vacuum systems are more complicated. They contain an engine-driven vacuum pump on each engine. The associated lines and components for each pump are isolated from each other and act as two independent vacuum systems. The vacuum lines are routed from each vacuum pump through a vacuum relief valve and through a check valve to the vacuum four-way selector valve. The four-way valve permits either pump to supply a vacuum manifold. From the manifold flexible hoses connect the vacuum- operated instruments into the system. To reduce the vacuum for the turn and bank indicators needle valves are included in both lines to these units. Lines to the artificial horizons and the directional gyro receive full vacuum. From the instruments lines are routed to the vacuum gauge through a turn and bank selector valve. This valve has three positions: main left turn and bank (T&B) and right T&B. In the main position the vacuum gauge indicates the vacuum in the lines of the artificial horizons and directional gyro. In the other positions the lower value of vacuum for the turn and bank indicators can be read. Figure 10-91 shows a typical engine-driven pump vacuum system containing the above components. A pump capacity of approximately 10"Hg at engine speeds above 1 000 rpm is normal. Pump capacity and pump size vary in different aircraft depending on the number of gyros to be operated. Suction/vacuum pressures discussed in conjunction with the operation of vacuum systems are actually negative pressures indicated as inches of mercury below that of atmospheric pressure. The minus sign is usually not presented as the importance is placed on the magnitude of the vacuum developed. In relation to an absolute vacuum (0 psi or 0 "Hg) instrument vacuum systems have positive pressure. Suction gauge—a pressure gauge which indicates the difference between the pressure inside the system and atmospheric or cockpit pressure. It is usually calibrated in inches of mercury. The desired vacuum and the minimum and maximum limits vary with gyro system design. If the desired vacuum for the attitude and heading indicators is 5 inches and the minimum is 4.6 inches a reading below the latter value indicates that the airflow is not spinning the gyros fast enough for reliable operation. In many aircraft the system provides a suction gauge selector valve permitting the pilot to check the vacuum at several points in the system. only upon individual filters clogging of a filter does not necessarily show on the suction gauge. Figure 10-89. A vacuum regulator also known as a suction relief valve includes a foam filter. To relieve vacuum outside air of a higher pressure must be drawn into the system.

2 well as Δ F = ± 1 transitions. The Δ F = 0 transi- tions however present the following two advantages over Δ F = ± 1 transitions: (1) Systematic errors due to mag- netic dipole contributions to E$_{PNC}$ are smaller and (2) the two frequencies ω$_{3}$ and ω$_{2}$ can be equal so this mea- surement requires only a single laser source and the ω$_{1}$ beam can be generated by frequency doubling the ω$_{2}$ laser output in a nonlinear crystal. We will consider only Δ F = 0 Δ m = 0 transitions in the following and write the two-photon transition amplitude of Eq. (4) as A$_{2}$$_{PA}$ = ˜ α ( ε ω 2 ) $^{2}$e 2 iφ $^{$^{ω}$2}$. electric dipole transition slightly allowed as well. The transition amplitude for this interaction is of the form To maintain a constant phase difference between the two-photon amplitude and the linear amplitudes the op- tical beams must propagate in directions nearly co-linear with one another. Without lose of generality we de- fine the y -axis along ˆ k such that ε ω 1 y must vanish for a plane wave or weakly-focussed beam. We allow an ar- bitrary static electric field E = E$_{x}$ ˆ x + E$_{y}$ ˆ y + E$_{z}$ ˆ z and consider a dc magnetic field B that is primarily in the ˆ z -direction. B will separate the various m -components: Δ E$_{F m}$ = µ$_{B}$g$_{F}$ mB$_{z}$ where µ$_{B}$ is the Bohr magneton and g$_{F}$ is 1/4 for F=4 and -1/4 for F=3.

This factor is small but not negligible in comparison to C F m F m = ∓ 3 / 4 for F = 3 m = ± 3 or ± 1 for F = 4 m = ± 4. The relative scale of the different amplitudes in Eq. (6) depends on many factors but for E$_{y}$ < 100 V/cm the two-photon rate dominates all others even with cw beam powers where ε ω 2 and ε ω 3 are the amplitudes and phases φ ω 2 and φ ω 3 the phases of the optical waves at frequencies ω$_{2}$ and ω$_{3}$ respectively and the coefficients of the two- photon moments ˜ α and ˜ β are defined in a form sim- ilar to the Stark polarizabilities. Bouchiat and Bouch- iat [25] noted the relationship between Stark-induced transitions and two-photon absorption. The interference between the two-photon amplitude and the amplitudes that are linear in ε ω 1 can be observed on Δ F = 0 as In each of the previous measurements a single laser field has been employed and both interactions (strong and weak) are linear in the amplitude of this field. We now consider this system under the influence of a sec- ond optical field composed of components at frequencies ω$_{2}$ and ω$_{3}$ where ω$_{2}$ + ω$_{3}$ = ω$_{1}$ which is capable of driving the 6 s → n $^{′}$s transition via a two-photon inter- action. In order for these amplitudes to interfere the ω$_{1}$ field component must be phase coherent with ω$_{2}$ and ω$_{3}$ components as it will be when the former is gen- erated from the latter using a nonlinear optical crys- tal for sum frequency generation. We have previously demonstrated this interference between two-photon ab- sorption and Stark-induced linear absorption on the ce- sium 6 s → 8 s transition [26]. We write the transition amplitude for this interaction in a form similar to that of the Stark-induced transition given by Eq. (1) We include in this expression mixing among magnetic components of the same F but omit mixing with other F states an approximation that will be valid for the modest magnetic field strengths characteristic of these measure- ments. We sum the four transition amplitudes where E$_{PNC}$ is the matrix element for electric dipole transitions due to the state mixing by the PNC inter- actions. To measure A$_{M}$$_{1}$ or A$_{PNC}$ directly is prob- lematic in that their magnitudes are typically well be- low the level of measurement noise. Techniques us- ing an interference between the weak transition and a stronger transition (the Stark-induced transition for ex- ample) have therefore been developed to effectively am- plify the signal to a detectable level. For example un- der conditions that allow a strong Stark-induced am- plitude and a weak PNC amplitude on the same tran- sition that add constructively the net rate scales as W$_{+}$ = | A$_{St}$ + A$_{PNC}$ | 2 ≃ | A$_{St}$ | 2 + 2 | A$_{St}$ || A$_{PNC}$ | . The interference between these various amplitudes can be re- versed by reversing one or more of the fields that in- fluences the sign of the amplitudes resulting in a rate W − = | A$_{St}$ − A$_{PNC}$ | 2 ≃ | A$_{St}$ | 2 − 2 | A$_{St}$ || A$_{PNC}$ | . A pre- cise measurement of the small difference between W$_{+}$ and W − can then be used to determine | A$_{PNC}$ | .

1 Introduction 1.1 Objective 1.2 A Brief Literature Review We consider an experiment where a player repeatedly chooses and carries out one among two actions to receive a random reward. Each time the reward depends on both the action undertaken and a random context preceding it which is given to the player before she makes her choice. The law of the context and conditional law of the reward given the context and action are fixed throughout the experiment. The player’s objective is to obtain as large a cumulated sum of rewards as possible. In this framework a policy is a rule that maps any context to an action. The value of a policy is the expectation of the reward in the experiment where the action carried out is the action recommended by the policy. Given a class Π of candidate policies the regret of a policy π ∈ Π is the difference between the largest value achievable within Π and the value of π . Learning the optimal policy within a class of candidate policies is meaningful when- ever the goal is to make recommendations. This is for instance the case in personalized medicine also known as precision medicine. There the context would typically consist of the description of a patient the actions would correspond to two strategies of treatment and the policies are rather called individualized treatment rules. The objective of this article is not to establish optimal regret bounds for optimal policy estimators. It is rather to show that rates faster than n − 1 / 2 can be demonstrated under much more general conditions than have previously been discussed in the policy learning literature. There has been a surge of interest in developing flexible methods for estimating optimal policies in recent years. Here we give a deeply abbreviated overview and refer the reader 2

discussed. Conclusions are given in Section VII. II. GEOMETRY FIG. 1. Geometry. Canting of two magnetic sublattices ( m$_{a}$ and m$_{b}$ ) by an angle θ produces a weak ferromagnetism ( M ) along the ˆ x axis parallel to the surface. The spontaneous polarization ( ⃗ P ) is assumed to lie in a plane parallel to the surface. Propagation of the surface mode is along the ˆ y axis with wavenumber ⃗ k$_{y}$ . The geometry is sketched in Fig.1. We consider a semi-infinite multiferroic film that fills the half space z < 0. The magnetic component of the multiferroic is a two sub-lattice anti- ferromagnet with uniaxial magnetic anisotropy. The two magnetic sub-lattices are allowed to cant in the x − z plane with canting angle θ . We assume symmetric canting such that | ⃗ m$_{a}$ | = | ⃗ m$_{b}$ | = M$_{s}$ . The canting generates a weak ferromagnetism which is perpendicular to the spontaneous polarisation. This configuration represents a Dzyaloshinkii-Moriya canting driven by spontaneous polarisation. Both the weak ferromagnetic moment and spontaneous polarisation are constrained to lie in x − y plane parallel to the surface. The magnetic easy axis is out-of-plane along the z direction. An external electric field is applied parallel to the spontaneous polarisation and an external magnetic field is applied along the weak ferromagnet moment. For the polariton propagation we consider in this paper transverse magnetic (TM) po- larization in which the magnetic part of the electromagnetic wave propagates parallel to the surface. We consider only surface modes traveling along the ˆ y direction so that the magnetic component lies in ˆ x direction while the electric component has E$_{y}$ and E$_{z}$ components. 3

I. INTRODUCTION The Standard Model (SM) has been almost completed by the discovery of top quark at the Tevatron and the only missing ingredient is the Higgs. LEP I/II experiments were done mainly to discover Higgs but without success up to Higgs mass 114 GeV [1]. Though it rules out small part of the parameter space for the SM Higgs sector it rules out most of natural parameter space for the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM). In the MSSM the quartic coupling of Higgs in the potential is determined from measured gauge couplings and the light CP even Higgs mass has an upper bound of about 120 GeV (which can be 130 or 135 GeV if stop mixing is maximal) [2] [3]. However this upper bound is achieved only when the stop mass is as heavy as 1 TeV which makes it difficult to understand the weak scale out of it. This ‘little hierarchy problem’ in the MSSM has been considered seriously for recent several years and many possible extensions of the MSSM have been proposed [4]. Even within the framework of MSSM it was shown that the boundary condition at high energy which provides negative stop mass squared can reduce the fine tuning for the electroweak symmetry breaking [5] and explicit model has been proposed [6] [7]. As an extension of the MSSM NMSSM (next to MSSM) is one of the most popular scenarios [8]. Gauge sector extensions also have been proposed [9] [10]. Recently BMSSM (beyond MSSM) has been proposed as a frame to study possible operators which can affect the Higgs sector [11]. There are extra fields above TeV scale but these new states can be integrated out below TeV such that we still keep the spectrum of the MSSM below TeV down to the weak scale. These new TeV particles modify the conventional Higgs potential and can increase the Higgs mass in this setup [11] and also Higgs mixing angle can be significantly changed such that Higgs phenomenology can be quite different from standard one [12]. Electroweak baryogenesis with the light stop in BMSSM has also been studied [13]. The LEP bound is applied to the SM Higgs and in principle it can be weaker in the MSSM NMSSM or BMSSM if the production or decay is very different from the SM. There had been extensive studies on nonstandard decay of Higgs which can happen if there is an extra light particle (e.g. a singlet of NMSSM) and the decay of Higgs is not just b ¯ b [14]. In this Letter we extend the work in the framework of BMSSM [12] which alters the Higgs phenomenology (both production and decay) significantly. We assume that all new states 2

Universal behavior of pair correlations in a strongly interacting Fermi gas ARC Centre of Excellence for Quantum-Atom Optics Centre for Atom Optics and Ultrafast Spectroscopy Swinburne University of Technology Melbourne 3122 Australia (Dated: November 20 2018) E. D. Kuhnle H. Hu X.-J. Liu P. Dyke M. Mark P. D. Drummond P. Hannaford and C. J. Vale We show that short-range pair correlations in a strongly interacting Fermi gas follow a simple universal law described by Tan’s relations. This is achieved through measurements of the static structure factor which displays a universal scaling proportional to the ratio of Tan’s contact to the momentum C /q . Bragg spectroscopy of ultracold $^{6}$Li atoms from a periodic optical potential is used to measure the structure factor for a wide range of momenta and interaction strengths providing broad confirmation of this universal law. We calibrate our Bragg spectra using the f -sum rule which is found to improve the accuracy of the structure factor measurement. PACS numbers: 03.75.Hh 03.75.Ss 05.30.Fk Universality is a remarkable property of strongly in- teracting systems of fermions [1–3]. Universality means that all dilute Fermi systems with sufficiently strong in- teractions behave identically on a scale given by the aver- age particle separation. With the discovery of universal- ity in the Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) to Bardeen- Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) crossover ultracold Fermi gases near Feshbach resonances have become a central topic in atomic physics [4–10]. Strongly interacting Fermi sys- tems arise in a wide variety of settings from astrophys- ical to nuclear and condensed matter systems. One can therefore study universality in ultracold atomic gases to help understand other strongly interacting Fermi super- fluids taking advantage of the ability to precisely control the atom-atom interactions. Understanding these strongly interacting Fermi gases however poses significant challenges [11]. In 2005 Shina Tan made dramatic progress by deriving several exact re- lations for Fermi gases in the BEC-BCS crossover which relate the microscopic properties to bulk thermodynamic quantities [12–14]. These exact relations are applicable in broad circumstances: zero or finite temperatures super- fluid or normal phases homogeneous or trapped systems and in few or many-body systems. In this letter we experimentally verify a universal re- lation for short-range pair correlations [12] using Bragg spectroscopy. This is achieved through measurements of the static structure factor given by the Fourier trans- form of the pair correlation function [15]. The structure factor of a unitary Fermi gas has an exact scaling with the ratio of Tan’s contact to the momentum C /q . For systems with finite scattering length we also confirm the first order correction to the universal law. Our measure- ments are compared to new calculations for the contact based on a recently developed below-threshold Gaussian pair fluctuation theory [16]. The contact C in a two component Fermi gas quanti- fies the likelihood of finding two fermions with opposite spin close enough to interact with each other. In systems where the range of the interaction potential is negligible this single parameter encapsulates all of the information required to determine the many-body properties [17 18]. C depends on the s -wave scattering length density and temperature of the system. Tan showed that the inter- nal energy of a gas across the BEC-BCS crossover can be expressed as a functional of the momentum distri- bution which has a C /q 4 dependence at large momen- tum q and that the pair correlation function diverges as C /r 2 at short distance r < 1 /k$_{F}$ where k$_{F}$ is the Fermi wavevector [12 15]. Tan also derived the adiabatic rela- tion dE/d ( − 1 /a ) = ℏ $^{2}$C / (4 πm ) where m is the atomic mass giving the change in the total energy E due to an adiabatic change in the scattering length [13] and ex- tended the virial theorem to finite a and imbalanced mix- tures [14]. The contact C was first extracted [19] from the number of closed-channel molecules determined through photo-association [8] and the adiabatic and virial Tan relations were very recently verified experimentally [20]. We will generally refer to the dimensionless contact I given by C / ( Nk$_{F}$ ) where N is the number of particles. Short-range structure in a quantum fluid depends upon the relative wave-function of the interacting particles in this case fermions in different spin states. In a two- component (spin-up/spin-down) Fermi gas with contact interactions this is given by ψ$_{↑↓}$ ( r ) ∝ 1 /r − 1 /a where a is the s -wave scattering length. Starting from this wave- function Tan showed that the spin-antiparallel pair cor- relation function is given by Eq. (1) which includes the contact as a pre-factor [12] Pair correlation functions are difficult to measure di- rectly in ultracold gases; however it is possible to mea- sure macroscopic quantities which depend on correlation functions in a well defined way. A prime example is the static structure factor S ( k ) which is given by the Fourier transform of g $^{(2)}$( r ) ( q = $_{ℏ}$k is the probe momentum).

Because IBM Cloud Private is built with a security mindset all application management interfaces and data handling are accessible from within only an organization security zone in accordance with the organizational requirements in place. Because IBM Cloud Private includes a portfolio of Cloud-ready applications the deployment of such an infrastructure is more secure than traditional on-premises infrastructure. This occurs because by using IBM Cloud Private customers can apply uniform security policies across all applications within its simple management interface instead of traditional on-premises infrastructures that rely on manual updates to each service on top of a stack of applications. Vulnerability Advisor is a feature of Cloud native and Enterprise editions of IBM Cloud Private to retrieve security status for container images on top of the IBM Cloud Private registry. It also checks for the security and compliance status of running containers that are deployed within an infrastructure. Vulnerability Advisor can also be configured to scan private registries to ensure that even customer-owned images are scanned for potential security threats. Such a feature allows for customers to quickly assess and address possible security threats and act on their remediation quickly. It is also possible to review security reports with ease directly from the IBM Cloud Private management interface. Vulnerability Advisor security notices are reviewed processed and made available by IBM Security to ensure that customers receive potential threat reports in time about their managed infrastructure which greatly reduces potential intrusion threats with ease. Note: For more details on Vulnerability Advisor see Managing image security with Vulnerability Advisor One of the growing concerns of cloud applications and microservices-based workloads is how each component of an application is communicating with each other and how secure are such credentials that are propagated within the network. Moreover another important factor to consider is how services or applications that are outside of the on-premises cloud infrastructure can interact with it. IBM Cloud Private allows for developers to further use their cloud applications by using Service IDs and API keys. Service IDs identify an application or service; API keys are used as an authentication method for such Service IDs. By creating specific Service IDs and their respective API keys developers can use credentials that use the principle of least privilege. That is it allows connecting applications to be granted access only to the minimum set of information that is required for its legitimate purpose and functioning. Service IDs are not tied to a particular user in such a way that if a developer leaves the organization the service ID remains which ensures that the application or service in question continues to operate. Also by creating individual credentials for each service if an API key is compromised it does not give access to other resources across an infrastructure. IBM Cloud Private allows for the quick replacement of lost API keys across its infrastructure in such a way that credentials can be quickly refreshed by using the IBM Cloud Private management interface.

GLYPH<129> difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations GLYPH<129> longer payment cycles GLYPH<129> difficulties in collecting accounts receivable and withholding taxes that limit the repatriation of earnings GLYPH<129> trade barriers GLYPH<129> difficulties in complying with varied legal and regulatory requirements across jurisdictions GLYPH<129> immigration regulations that limit our ability to deploy our employees GLYPH<129> political instability and threats of terrorism and GLYPH<129> variations in effective income tax rates among countries where we conduct business. One or more of these factors could have a material adverse effect on our international operations which could harm our results of operations and financial condition. As we continue to expand our business in emerging markets such as those in Latin America the Commonwealth of Independent States India and Southeast Asia we face challenges related to more volatile economic conditions competition from companies that are already present in the market the need to identify correctly and leverage appropriate opportunities for sales and marketing poor protection of intellectual property inadequate protection against crime (including counterfeiting corruption and fraud) inadvertent breaches of local laws or regulations and difficulties in recruiting sufficient personnel with appropriate skills and experience. In addition local business practices in jurisdictions in which we operate and particularly in emerging markets may be inconsistent with international regulatory requirements such as anti-corruption and anti-bribery regulations to which we are subject. It is possible that some of our employees subcontractors agents or partners may violate such legal and regulatory requirements which may expose us to criminal or civil enforcement actions including penalties and suspension or disqualification from U.S. federal procurement contracting. If we fail to comply with such legal and regulatory requirements our business and reputation may be harmed. For example during the height of the financial crisis in fiscal 2008 we recognized higher than usual foreign exchange losses under interest and other expense net mainly due to the significant revaluation of assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies attributable to the rapid and significant foreign exchange rate changes associated with the global economic turbulence. Although our foreign exchange losses have been less significant since then as a result of enhanced hedging strategies we believe that foreign exchange rates may continue to present challenges in future periods. Our policy is to hedge significant net exposures in the major foreign currencies in which we operate and we generally hedge our net currency exposure with respect to expected revenue and operating costs and certain balance sheet items. We do not hedge all of our currency exposure including for currencies for which the cost of hedging is prohibitively expensive. We cannot assure you that we will be able to effectively limit all of our exposure to currency exchange rate fluctuations. The imposition of exchange or price controls or other restrictions on the conversion of foreign currencies could also have a material adverse effect on our business results of operations and financial condition. 11 Our international operations expose us to risks associated with fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates that could adversely affect our business. Although we have operations throughout the world approximately 70% to 80% of our revenue and approximately 50% to 60% of our operating costs are denominated in or linked to the U.S. dollar. Accordingly we consider the U.S. dollar to be our functional currency. Fluctuations in exchange rates between the dollar and the currencies in which such revenues are earned or such costs are incurred may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. From time to time we may experience increases in the costs of our operations outside the United States as expressed in dollars which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. As we continue to develop our business in emerging markets we face increasing challenges that could adversely impact our results of operations reputation and business.

Convergence zone lift can at times be somewhat turbulent especially if air from different sources is mixing such as along a sea-breeze front. The general roughness may be the only clue of being along some sort of convergence line. There can also be narrow and rough (but strong) thermals within the convergence line. Work these areas like any other difficult thermals using steeper bank angles and more speed for maneuverability. Finally lift sources have been categorized into four types: thermal slope wave and convergence. Often more than one type of lift exists at the same time such as thermals with slope lift thermaling into a wave convergence zones enhancing thermals thermal waves and wave and slope lift. In mountainous terrain it is possible for all four lift types to exist on a single day. The glider pilot needs to remain mentally nimble to take advantage of various types and locations of rising air during the flight. Nature does not know that it must only produce rising air based on these four lift categories. Sources of lift that do not fit one of the four lift types discussed probably exist. For instance there have been a few reports of pilots soaring in travelling waves the source of which was not known. At some soaring sites it is sometimes difficult to classify the type of lift. This should not be a problem. Simply work the mystery lift as needed then ponder its nature after the flight. Combined Sources of Updrafts 10-24

free to move through standard five-dot deflections to indicate position on the localizer course and glidepath. When the aircraft is on the glidepath the needle is horizontal overlying the reference dots. Since the glidepath is much narrower than the localizer course (approximately 1.4° from full up to full down deflection) the needle is very sensitive to displacement of the aircraft from on-path alignment. With the proper rate of descent established upon GS interception very small corrections keep the aircraft aligned. The localizer and GS warning flags disappear from view on the indicator when sufficient voltage is received to actuate the needles. The flags show when an unstable signal or receiver malfunction occurs. The OM is identified by a low-pitched tone continuous dashes at the rate of two per second and a purple/blue marker beacon light. The MM is identified by an intermediate tone alternate dots and dashes at the rate of 95 dot/dash combinations per minute and an amber marker beacon light. The IM where installed is identified by a high-pitched tone continuous dots at the rate of six per second and a white marker beacon light. The back-course marker (BCM) where installed is identified by a high-pitched tone with two dots at a rate of 72 to 75 two- dot combinations per minute and a white marker beacon light. Marker beacon receiver sensitivity is selectable as high or low on many units. The low-sensitivity position gives the sharpest indication of position and should be used during an approach. The high-sensitivity position provides an earlier warning that the aircraft is approaching the marker beacon site. The localizer needle indicates by deflection whether the aircraft is right or left of the localizer centerline regardless of the position or heading of the aircraft. Rotating the OBS has no effect on the operation of the localizer needle although it is useful to rotate the OBS to put the LOC inbound course under the course index. When inbound on the front course or outbound on the back course the course indication remains directional. (See Figure 9-38 aircraft C D and E.) Unless the aircraft has reverse sensing capability and it is in use when flying inbound on the back course or outbound on the front course heading corrections to on-course are made opposite the needle deflection. This is commonly described as “flying away from the needle.” (See Figure 9-38 aircraft A and B.) Back course signals should not be used for an approach unless a back course approach procedure is published for that particular runway and the approach is authorized by ATC. Once you have reached the localizer centerline maintain the inbound heading until the CDI moves off center. Drift corrections should be small and reduced proportionately as the course narrows. By the time you reach the OM your drift correction should be established accurately enough on a well- executed approach to permit completion of the approach with heading corrections no greater than 2°. The heaviest demand on pilot technique occurs during descent from the OM to the MM when you maintain the localizer course adjust pitch attitude to maintain the proper rate of descent and adjust power to maintain proper airspeed. Simultaneously the altimeter must be checked and preparation made for visual transition to land or for a missed approach. You can appreciate the need for accurate instrument interpretation and aircraft control within the ILS as a whole when you notice the relationship between CDI and glidepath needle indications and aircraft displacement from the localizer and glidepath centerlines. Deflection of the GS needle indicates the position of the aircraft with respect to the glidepath. When the aircraft is above the glidepath the needle is deflected downward. When the aircraft is below the glidepath the needle is deflected upward. [Figure 9-39] The ILS and its components are subject to certain errors which are listed below. Localizer and GS signals are subject to the same type of bounce from hard objects as space waves. The very low power and directional antenna of the marker beacon transmitter ensures that the signal is not received any distance from the transmitter site. Problems with signal reception are usually caused by the airborne receiver not being turned on or by incorrect receiver sensitivity. 1. Reflection. Surface vehicles and even other aircraft flying below 5 000 feet above ground level (AGL) may disturb the signal for aircraft on the approach. 2. False courses. In addition to the desired course GS facilities inherently produce additional courses at higher vertical angles. The angle of the lowest of these false courses occurs at approximately 9°– 12°. An aircraft flying the LOC/GS course at a constant altitude would observe gyrations of both the GS needle and GS warning flag as the aircraft passed through the various false courses. Getting established on one of these false courses results in either confusion (reversed GS needle indications) or in the need for a very high descent rate. However if the approach is conducted at the altitudes specified on the appropriate approach chart these false courses are not encountered. ILS Errors ILS Function Marker Beacons 9-40

On October 2 2003 AEGON completed the sale of Transamerica Finance Corporation’s real estate tax service and flood hazard certification businesses to The First American Corporation for a total cash sale price of USD 400 million. As part of the transaction TFC’s real estate tax service subsidiary has distributed assets valued at USD 246 million to TFC. The sale of the two TFC subsidiaries combined with the asset distribution transaction resulted in an after-tax book gain of USD 347 million which was added directly to shareholders’ equity against the invested capital charged earlier to equity as goodwill. The remaining businesses of TFC primarily consist of maritime container and European trailer leasing which will be consolidated as of the first quarter 2004. Due to the reduced size of these activities consolidation will no longer be incompatible with the insight required by law. In the consolidated financial statements of AEGON N.V. all group companies have been included except for some group companies whose aggregate financial effect is relatively insignificant or which are not intended to be held long-term. Group companies the consolidation of which would not result in a fair view of the group because of dissimilar activities are also not consolidated. The consolidated financial statements of these latter companies have been added separately in the notes. Their results are presented in the income statements on a separate line. Consolidated entities also include special purpose entities set up in connection with the sale of investment products in the United States. Participations in joint ventures have been consolidated proportionally. Due to their insignificance minority interests are included under other current liabilities. A list of names and locations of the most important group companies is given on page 134. With regard to the income statements of AEGON N.V. article 402 Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code has been applied allowing a simplified format.

We shall not pursue this line here because as noted in Sect. II the validity of such approximations is usually not transparent physically. We present instead a simple renormalization scheme which turns out to work surprisingly well for the IRLM. Inspired by the rather general framework of the Landau Fermi liquid theory [54] we shall simply suppose that the aforementioned renormalization can be accounted for by means of a multiplicative ε -independent factor F G $^{r}$( ε ) |$_{exact}$ ≃ F G $^{r}$( ε ). Then the problem is to deduce this factor. For the IRLM at resonance this can be done because as already noted in Sect. V A the exact conductance is known G |$_{α}$ = ε$_{F}$ = G 0 . This condition determines the needed factor at resonance for given values of N ξ and J (remember that we keep β = 1) but F could dependent on α . Because G = G ( α ) reaches its maximum at α = ε$_{F}$ one can admit that at least not too far away from resonance F only slightly depends on α and neglect this dependence altogether. We have computed and examined the curves of G = G ( α ) obtained within this renor- malization procedure. The results are very encouraging. The renormalized curves are much less size-dependent than the unrenormalized ones. The smaller the values of ξ and J the weaker is the dependence on N . For illustration we present in Fig. 4 for comparison the renormalized curves along with those unrenormalized in the rather unrealistic situation of very large values of J = 10 and ξ = 10 which corresponds to a very large ratio J/ Γ = 50. The fact that with increasing N the renormalized curves tend to become size-independent much faster than the unrenormalized curves is clearly visible even in this less favorable case. 16

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF AMERICAN AIRLINES GROUP INC. (l) Maintenance Materials and Repairs Maintenance and repair costs for owned and leased flight equipment are charged to operating expense as incurred except costs incurred for (m) Selling Expenses (n) Share-based Compensation (o) Foreign Currency Gains and Losses Foreign currency gains and losses are recorded as part of other income net within total nonoperating expense net in our consolidated statements of operations. Foreign currency losses for 2018 and 2017 were $55 million and $4 million respectively and for 2016 foreign currency gains were $1 million. We account for our share-based compensation expense based on the fair value of the stock award at the time of grant which is recognized ratably over the vesting period of the stock award. Certain awards have performance conditions that must be achieved prior to vesting and are expensed based on the expected achievement at each reporting period. The fair value of stock appreciation rights is estimated using a Black- Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of restricted stock units is based on the market price of the underlying shares of AAG common stock on the date of grant. See Note 15 for further discussion of share-based compensation. 95 Selling expenses include credit card fees commissions computerized reservations systems fees and advertising. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was $128 million $135 million and $116 million for the years ended December 31 2018 2017 and 2016 respectively. maintenance and repair under flight hour maintenance contract agreements which are accrued based on contractual terms when an obligation exists. With respect to contract receivables reflected as accounts receivable net on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet these primarily include receivables for tickets sold to individual passengers through the use of major credit cards. These receivables are short-term mostly settled within seven days after sale. Bad debt losses which have been minimal in the past have been considered in establishing allowances for doubtful accounts. The air traffic liability principally represents tickets sold for future travel on American and partner airlines as well as estimated future refunds and exchanges of tickets sold for past travel. The balance in our air traffic liability also fluctuates with seasonal travel patterns. The contract duration of passenger tickets is one year. Accordingly any revenue associated with tickets sold for future travel will be recognized within twelve months. For 2018 $3.1 billion of revenue was recognized in passenger revenue that was included in our air traffic liability at December 31 2017. The balance of the loyalty program liability fluctuates based on seasonal patterns which impact the volume of mileage credits issued through travel or sold to co-branded credit card and other partners (deferral of revenue) and mileage credits redeemed (recognition of revenue). Changes in loyalty program liability are as follows (in millions): Balance at December 31 2017 $ 8 822 Deferral of revenue 3 083 Recognition of revenue (1) (3 366 ) Balance at December 31 2018 (2) $ 8 539 (1) Principally relates to revenue recognized from the redemption of mileage credits for both air and non-air travel awards. Mileage credits are combined in one homogenous pool and are not separately identifiable. As such the revenue is comprised of miles that were part of the loyalty program deferred revenue balance at the beginning of the period as well as miles that were issued during the period. (2) Mileage credits can be redeemed at any time and do not expire as long as that AAdvantage member has any type of qualifying activity at least every 18 months. As of December 31 2018 our current loyalty program liability was $3.3 billion and represents our current estimate of revenue expected to be recognized in the next twelve months based on historical trends with the balance reflected in long-term loyalty program liability expected to be recognized as revenue in periods thereafter.

Spatial Reference System Support Spatial functions fail if a geometry is not syntactically well-formed. Spatial import functions that parse WKT or WKB values raise an error for attempts to create a geometry that is not syntactically well-formed. Syntactic well-formedness is also checked for attempts to store geometries into tables. It is permitted to insert select and update geometrically invalid geometries but they must be syntactically well-formed. Due to the computational expense MySQL does not check explicitly for geometric validity. Spatial computations may detect some cases of invalid geometries and raise an error but they may also return an undefined result without detecting the invalidity. Applications that require geometically valid geometries should check them using the ST_IsValid() function. A spatial reference system (SRS) for spatial data is a coordinate-based system for geographic locations. There are different types of spatial reference systems: The globes in this case are ellipsoids; that is flattened spheres. Earth is a bit shorter in its North-South axis than its East-West axis so a slightly flattened sphere is more correct but perfect spheres permit faster calculations. MySQL maintains information about available spatial reference systems for spatial data in the data dictionary mysql.st_spatial_reference_systems table which can store entries for projected and geographic SRSs. This data dictionary table is invisible but SRS entry contents are available through the INFORMATION_SCHEMA ST_SPATIAL_REFERENCE_SYSTEMS table implemented as a view on mysql.st_spatial_reference_systems (see Section 26.3.36 “The INFORMATION_SCHEMA ST_SPATIAL_REFERENCE_SYSTEMS Table” ). The following example shows what an SRS entry looks like: mysql> SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ST_SPATIAL_REFERENCE_SYSTEMS WHERE SRS_ID = 4326\G *************************** 1. row *************************** SRS_NAME: WGS 84 SRS_ID: 4326 ORGANIZATION: EPSG ORGANIZATION_COORDSYS_ID: 4326 DEFINITION: GEOGCS["WGS 84" DATUM["World Geodetic System 1984" SPHEROID["WGS 84" 6378137 298.257223563 AUTHORITY["EPSG" "7030"]] AUTHORITY["EPSG" "6326"]] PRIMEM["Greenwich" 0 AUTHORITY["EPSG" "8901"]] 2061 •The SRS denoted in MySQL by SRID 0 represents an infinite flat Cartesian plane with no units assigned to its axes. Unlike projected SRSs it is not georeferenced and it does not necessarily represent Earth. It is an abstract plane that can be used for anything. SRID 0 is the default SRID for spatial data in MySQL. •A geographic SRS is a nonprojected SRS representing longitude-latitude (or latitude-longitude) coordinates on an ellipsoid in any angular unit. •A projected SRS is a projection of a globe onto a flat surface; that is a flat map. For example a light bulb inside a globe that shines on a paper cylinder surrounding the globe projects a map onto the paper. The result is georeferenced: Each point maps to a place on the globe. The coordinate system on that plane is Cartesian using a length unit (meters feet and so forth) rather than degrees of longitude and latitude. 11.4.5 Spatial Reference System Support •Polygon interior rings are inside the exterior ring •Multipolygons do not have overlapping polygons

(1) must be fully neutralized by the negative charge of electrons. However since electrons are light and interact only via the electromagnetic force they will penetrate through the boundary and generate a local charge disbalance around the star surface. The induced electrostatic potential φ ( z ) is determined from the Poisson equation (see e.g. [14]) where e = √$_{4}$$_{πα}$$_{=0.3028 is the proton charge and}$ α is the fine-structure constant[26]. For a given proton distribution Eq. (1) the electron charge distribution ρ$_{e}$ ( z ) should be determined self-consistently. For this purpose we use the Thomas-Fermi approximation [15 16] which should work well for an extended object like a heavy nucleus or star. The relativistic version of this method was considered e.g. in refs. [17 18]. In a semi-classical approximation the electron energy at point z can be written as where k is its 3-momentum and − V ( z ) = − eφ ( z ) is the potential energy. At zero tem- perature all electronic states with k ≤ k$_{F}$ ( z ) are occupied where k$_{F}$ ( z ) is the local Fermi momentum. It is determined from the condition that gives The local electron density is found by integration over k : By inserting this expression into Eq. (2) we obtain a non-linear differential equation for φ ( z ). To find its solutions we need to specify boundary conditions. According to our assumption the boundary is in direct contact with the vacuum and therefore the electron density as well as the electric potential must vanish at z → ∞ . This condition can be fulfilled if µ ≤ m$_{e}$ . For µ < m$_{e}$ the electrons are bound to the surface i. e. a finite energy is needed to extract an electron from the star. This energy is well known in ordinary metals as the exit work. In this case the electron density should vanish at a certain d $^{2}$φ dz 2 = − e [ ρ$_{p}$ ( z ) − ρ$_{e}$ ( z )] ≡ − eρ$_{ch}$ ( z ) (2) ϵ ( k z ) = √ k 2 + m 2 e − V ( z ) (3) ϵ ( k$_{F}$ ( z ) z ) = √ k 2 $_{F}$( z ) + m 2 e − V ( z ) = µ = const (4) k$_{F}$ ( z ) = √ [ µ + V ( z )] 2 − m 2 e .

283 The Management Board which assists the Executive Board in pursuing Aegon’s strategic goals is formed by members of the Executive Board the CEO’s of Aegon USA Aegon the Netherlands Aegon UK and Aegon Central & Eastern Europe and Aegon’s Chief Risk Officer. The total remuneration for the members of the Management Board over 2013 was EUR 15.2 million (2012: EUR 13.8 million) consisting of EUR 5.0 million (2012: EUR 4.1 million) fixed compensation EUR 6.3 million variable compensation awards (2012: EUR 6.2 million) EUR 1.3 million (2012: EUR 0.6 million) other benefits EUR 1.6 million (2012: EUR 2.3 million) pension premiums and EUR 1.0 million (2012: EUR 0.6 million) reflecting 16% crisis tax which was accrued for members of the Management Board employed in the Netherlands. Expenses as recognized under IFRS in the income statement for variable compensation and pensions differ from the variable compensation awards and pension premiums paid due to the accounting treatment under respectively IFRS 2 and IAS 19. IFRS expenses related to variable compensation amounted to EUR 6.3 million (2012: EUR 5.5 million) and for pensions EUR 1.7 million (2012: EUR 1.4 million). Additional information on the remuneration and share-based compensation of members of the Executive Board and the remuneration of the Supervisory Board is disclosed in the sections below (all amounts in EUR '000 except where indicated otherwise). The information below reflect the compensation and various related expenses for members of the Executive Board. Under the current remuneration structure introduced in 2011 rewards are paid out over a number years or in the case of shares vest over a number of years. This remuneration-structure has made it more relevant to present rewards earned during a certain performance year instead of what was received in a certain year. The amounts in the table represent the conditional variable compensation awards earned during the related performance year. Expenses recognized under IFRS accounting treatment in the income statement for conditionally awarded cash and shares differ from the awards. For the performance year 2013 and previous performance years expenses under IFRS for Mr. Wynaendts amount to EUR 1 026 (2012: EUR 1.093). For Mr. Button the expenses under IFRS with regard to conditionally awarded cash and shares recognized in the income statement during the performance year 2013 for his role as CFO and member of Aegon’s Executive Board amount to EUR 288. In performance year 2013 and previous performance years Mr. Button has been awarded with variable compensation in his role as CFO of Americas and Head of Corporate Financial Center. The related expenses under IFRS for those awards recognized in 2013 for the period that Mr. Button has been part of the Executive Board amount to EUR 500. Expenses recognized in the income statement for Mr. Nooitgedagt amount to EUR 836 (2012: 736). Under IFRS expenses related to conditional variable compensation awards are recognized in full at retirement date. Therefore expenses under IFRS in 2013 for Mr. Nooitgedagt relate to the conditional variable compensation awards for the performance year 2013 as well as for previous performance years. The vesting conditions and applicable holding periods for the awards of Mr. Nooitgedagt remain nevertheless unchanged. 1 Mr. Button was appointed as CFO and member of Aegon’s Executive Board per May 15 2013. Conditional variable compensation is disclosed for the period that Mr. Button has been part of the Executive Board. 2 Mr. Nooitgedagt’s conditional variable compensation is reflective of his time with Aegon till retirement as per August 1 2013. 1 Mr. Button was appointed as CFO and member of Aegon’s Executive Board per May 15 2013.

Figure 8-13 The capacity provisioning process and infrastructure The z/OS WLM manages the workload by goals and business importance on each z/OS system. WLM metrics are available through existing interfaces and are reported through IBM Resource Measurement Facility (RMF) Monitor III with one RMF gatherer for each z/OS system. Sysplex-wide data aggregation and propagation occur in the RMF Distributed Data Server (DDS). The RMF Common Information Model (CIM) providers and associated CIM models publish the RMF Monitor III data. CPM retrieves critical metrics from one or more z/OS systems’ CIM structures and protocols. CPM communicates to local and remote SEs and HMCs by using the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). CPM can see the resources in the individual offering records and the capacity tokens. When CPM activates resources a check is run to determine whether enough capacity tokens remain for the specified resource to be activated for at least 24 hours. If insufficient tokens remain no resource from the On/Off CoD record is activated. If a capacity token is used during an activation that is driven by the CPM the corresponding On/Off CoD record is deactivated prematurely by the system. This process occurs even if the CPM activates this record or parts of it. However you do receive warning messages if capacity tokens are close to being fully used. You receive the messages five days before a capacity token is fully used. The five days are based on the assumption that the consumption is constant for the five days. You must put operational procedures in place to handle these situations. You can deactivate the record manually allow it occur automatically or replenish the specified capacity token by using the Resource Link application. 364 IBM z15 (8561) Technical Guide PR/SM z/OS MF z15 Capacity Provisioning Manager (CPM) RMF CIM server z/OS console(s) RMF DDS WLM RMF WLM CIM server HMC Ethernet Switch (SNMP) z/OS image z/OS image(s) Capacity Provisioning Management Console Provisioning Policy

We emphasize that the definition and results described in this section apply only to the case where the model of interest depends on a single parameter. A generalization to the multi-parameter case has been formulated and shown to have the properties listed at the beginning of Sec. II [12]. We shall not describe it here however except for when evidence- based priors are specified for the additional parameters. This is a very common situation in high energy physics and will be discussed next. The reference prior algorithm described in Sec. II B pertains to models containing no nuisance parameters. In practice however every non-trivial problem must contend with such parameters and the reference prior algorithm must be generalized accordingly. In this paper we restrict our attention to nuisance parameters for which partial information is available which is often the case in practice. Depending on the type of partial information that is available there are two plausible ways one might choose to incorporate nuisance parameters φ into the calculation of the reference priors for a parameter of interest θ [17]: In many high energy physics measurements there are often sound reasons for assuming that the nuisance parameter is independent of the parameter of interest. Information about a detector energy scale for example is typically determined separately from the measurement of interest say of a particle mass and is therefore considered to be independent a priori from one’s information about the particle’s mass. When an experimenter is willing to make this assumption he or she can declare that π ( φ | θ ) = π ( φ ) and use Method 2. When this assumption does not seem fully justified and it is too difficult to elicit the θ dependence III. NUISANCE PARAMETERS Method 1: Assume that we are given a marginal prior π ( φ ) for the nuisance parameters; compute the conditional reference prior π$_{R}$ ( θ | φ ) for the interest parameter given a fixed value of φ ; the full prior is then π ( θ φ ) = π$_{R}$ ( θ | φ ) π ( φ ); Method 2: Assume that we are given a conditional prior π ( φ | θ ) for the nuisance parameter given the interest parameter; marginalize the probability model p ( x | θ φ ) with respect to φ in order to obtain p ( x | θ ) = ∫ p ( x | θ φ ) π ( φ | θ ) dφ and compute the reference prior π$_{R}$ ( θ ) for the marginalized model; the full prior is then π ( θ φ ) = π ( φ | θ ) π$_{R}$ ( θ ). 10

The thickness of the red (shadow) lines represents in turn the orbital weight of (a) surface As 4 p (b) subsurface Fe 3 d (c) subsurface As 4 p and (d) central (bulk) Fe 3 d . Figure 5: The 2D FSs of the slab (LaO) 4 (FeAs) 6 . The zone center is Γ and the corner point is M . From Γ outward in turn the FSs are: 2 times bulk 3 times surface; from M outward: two tiny surface FSs two bulk FSs. (The small wiggles are due to the resolution of the used k mesh.) C. The As terminated surface As can be inferred from Tables II and III the central Fe-As triple layer of (LaO) 4 (FeAs) 6 is already close to a bulk-like state. Also the Fermi level relative to the bands derived from this central layer is bulk-like. Therefore the band structure of this slab shown in Fig. 4 may be considered as representative for a bulk crystal with an As terminated (001) surface. Observe that the slab bands do not have k$_{z}$ -dispersion due to the slab confinement of the Kohn-Sham states. As is seen in Fig. 1 the k$_{z}$ -dispersion of the bulk bands crossing Fermi level is also negligible. Therefore in the following only the in-plane dispersion of the bands is discussed and presented in the figures. By the thickness of colored lines the orbital character of the bands is indicated in Fig. 4 from top to bottom for basis orbitals in which the Kohn-Sham band wave- functions are expanded: of surface As 4 p -orbitals Fe 3 d - orbitals of the Fe layer below the surface As layer As 4 p -orbitals of the next layer below this Fe layer and fi- nally of the Fe 3 d -orbitals in the center of the slab which corresponds to the first Fe layer below the surface triple layer of a bulk crystal. The latter Fe atoms are about 10 ˚ A below the position of the surface As atoms. The Kohn-Sham band wavefunctions in the vicinity of Fermi level are formed by the above accounted ‘chemical basis’ orbitals to about 99 percent so that the thick col- ored lines of Fig. 4 (and also of Fig. 6 below) completely represent the extension of the corresponding Kohn-Sham wavefunctions. Polarization states and other basis states besides the explicitly discussed of the full basis used in the calculations to not contribute to these Kohn-Sham wavefunctions. Both the surface Fe 3 d -bands and the bulk Fe 3 d -bands cross the Fermi level however they form quite different Fermi surfaces (FS) as shown in Fig. 5. Around Γ there are two hole cylinders of bulk bands and around M there are two electron cylinders all much like in a bulk crys- tal calculation without surface. Note that in the slab (LaO) 4 (FeAs) 6 on which Fig. 5 is based the surfaces FSs are (almost) twofold degenerate due to the two surface FeAs triple layers on both sides of the slab (which do almost not interact due to the z -confinement of all con- duction states). Hence each of the surface FSs is doubly degenerate which is however not resolved in the figure. There is next to no contribution of orbitals in the sub- surface LaO triple layer as well as in any LaO triple layer

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Income Recognition Third-Party Construction Services Stock-Based Employee Compensation method which approximates the effective interest method. Leasehold improvements and equipment are depreciated on the straight-line method over the shorter of the expected useful lives or the lease terms which range from 3 to 10 years. Accumulated depreciation and amortization for such assets totaled $22.7 million in 2004 and $19.3 million in 2003. Our rental and other property income is recorded when due from residents and is recognized monthly as it is earned. Other property income consists primarily of utility rebillings and administrative application and other transactional fees charged to our residents. Our apartment homes are rented to residents on lease terms generally ranging from 6 to 13 months with monthly payments due in advance. Interest fee and asset management and all other sources of income are recognized as earned. Two of our properties are subject to rent control or rent stabilization. Operations of apartment properties acquired are recorded from the date of acquisition in accordance with the purchase method of accounting. In management’s opinion due to the number of residents the type and diversity of submarkets in which the properties operate and the collection terms there is no significant concentration of credit risk. Our construction division performs services for our internally developed communities as well as provides construction management and general contracting services for third-party owners of multifamily commercial and retail properties. Income from these third-party projects is recognized on a percentage-of-completion basis. For projects where our fee is based on a fixed price any cost overruns as compared to the original budget incurred during construction will reduce the fee generated on those projects. For any project where cost overruns are expected to be in excess of the fee generated on the project we will recognize the total projected loss in the period in which the loss is first estimated. See Note 7 for further discussion of our third-party construction services. Prior to 2003 we accounted for option grants under the intrinsic method set forth in Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related Interpretations. Beginning 2003 we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 148 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure” an amendment of SFAS No. 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”. As a result of our adoption of the prospective method set forth in SFAS No. 148 we recognize stock-based employee compensation when new options are awarded. We recorded compensation expense totaling $0.6 million and $0.2 million during the years ended 2004 and 2003 respectively associated with awards accounted for under the fair value method. Additionally we began recognizing compensation expense on shares purchased under our Employee Share Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) for the difference in the price paid by our employees and the fair market value of our shares at the date of purchase. We expensed $0.2 million related to ESPP purchases during 2004. The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions used for grants in 2004 2003 and 2002 respectively: risk-free interest rates of 4.2% 4.0% and 5.0% to 5.2%; expected life of ten years; dividend yield of 5.9% 8.1% and 6.9% to 7.0%; and expected share volatility of 18.0% 18.3% and 18.1%. The weighted average fair value of options granted in 2004 2003 and 2002 was $3.83 $1.38 and $2.85 per share respectively. 76 camden transforming

PENSIONS AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS Pension Benefits We sponsor several single-employer defined benefit pension plans the majority of which have been frozen. We also participate in joint Company and Guild-sponsored plans covering employees of The New York Times Newspaper Guild including The Newspaper Guild of New York - The New York Times Pension Fund which was frozen and replaced with a new defined benefit pension plan The Guild-Times Adjustable Pension Plan. The table below includes the liability for all of these plans. Our Company-sponsored defined benefit pension plans include qualified plans (funded) as well as non- qualified plans (unfunded). These plans provide participating employees with retirement benefits in accordance with benefit formulas detailed in each plan. All of our non-qualified plans which provide enhanced retirement benefits to select employees are currently frozen except for a foreign-based pension plan discussed below. The New York Times Newspaper Guild pension plan is a qualified plan and is also included in the table below. We also have a foreign-based pension plan for certain non-U.S. employees (the “foreign plan”). The information for the foreign plan is combined with the information for U.S. non-qualified plans. The benefit obligation of the foreign plan is immaterial to our total benefit obligation. The funded status of our qualified and non-qualified pension plans as of December 28 2014 is as follows: We made contributions of approximately $15 million to certain qualified pension plans in 2014. We expect contributions to total approximately $9 million to satisfy minimum funding requirements in 2015. Pension expense is calculated using a number of actuarial assumptions including an expected long-term rate of return on assets (for qualified plans) and a discount rate. Our methodology in selecting these actuarial assumptions is discussed below. In determining the expected long-term rate of return on assets we evaluated input from our investment consultants actuaries and investment management firms including our review of asset class return expectations as well as long-term historical asset class returns. Projected returns by such consultants and economists are based on broad equity and bond indices. Our objective is to select an average rate of earnings expected on existing plan assets and expected contributions to the plan during the year. The expected long-term rate of return determined on this basis was 7.00% at the beginning of 2014.
