Starting from previous works on consensus dynamics, we construct a distributed attitude control law and derive analytically sufficient conditions for the formation to converge asymptotically towards a synchronized, non–accelerating state (possibly defined a priori). Moreover, motivated by the results obtained on a particular consensus model, first introduced by F. Cucker and S. Smale to modellize the translational dynamics of flocks, we numerically explore the dependence of the convergence process on the dimension of the formation and the relative initial conditions of the spacecrafts. Finally, we generalize the class of weights defined by the previous authors in order to dampen the aforementioned effects, thus making our control law suitable for very large formations. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Multi-agent linear dynamical systems, analyzing the consensus problem http://hdl.handle.net/2117/25531 Multi-agent linear dynamical systems, analyzing the consensus problem García Planas, María Isabel In this paper the consensus problem is considered for multi-agent systems having an independent agent and fixed topology. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Symplectic and poisson structures with symmetries in interaction http://hdl.handle.net/2117/24854 Symplectic and poisson structures with symmetries in interaction Miranda Galcerán, Eva Hamiltonian actions constitute a central object of study in symplectic geometry. Special attention has been devoted to the toric case. Toric symplectic manifolds provide natural examples of integrable systems and every integrable system on a symplectic manifold is a toric manifold in a neighbourhood of a compact fiber (Arnold–Liouville). The classification of toric symplectic manifolds is given by Delzant's theorem in terms of the image of the moment map (Delzant polytope).... 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Using integral e-portfolio to learn linear algebra http://hdl.handle.net/2117/24141 Using integral e-portfolio to learn linear algebra García Planas, María Isabel; Taberna Torres, Judit The use of e-portfolio is becoming common in the learning and assessment of students. This is due to the need of teachers to enhance student autonomy making them to reflect on the process of learning. Lately, we have worked with different software, facilitating its generation and use. In this paper, the recent experience in the use of e-portfolio for undergraduate students of the Universitat Polit`ecnica de Catalunya are set. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Introduction to Poisson Geometry http://hdl.handle.net/2117/24114 Introduction to Poisson Geometry Miranda Galcerán, Eva; Scott, Geoffrey 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z El e-portafolio del estudiante en Mahara-Moodle y Google Sites http://hdl.handle.net/2117/23534 El e-portafolio del estudiante en Mahara-Moodle y Google Sites García Planas, María Isabel; Taberna Torres, Judit Es bien conocido el potencial que tiene el uso del e-portfolio del estudiante para hacer visible tanto para el mismo como para los demás, de cómo y hasta que nivel ha logrado sus objetivos. Para realizar un e-portafolio se pueden utilizar distintas aplicaciones, entre ellas se encuentran Google Sites y Mahara. Google Sites permite de forma sencilla editando una plantilla previamente preparada por el profesor, crear una página web como muestra de sus trabajos desarrollados a lo largo de sus estudios. Mahara es un sistema de e-portafolio que puede conectarse a Moodle y el cual puede ser controlado por el estudiante y puede ser visible por el grupo. Debido a la interoperabilidad de Mahara especialmente con Moodle, este permite que desde la plataforma de Atenea se puedan interconectar el profesorado con el e-portafolio del estudiante. En este trabajo presentamos los resultados obtenidos desde el año 2011 hasta la actualidad en las investigaciones realizadas sobre el e-portafolio en el marco de la Universidad Politècnica de Catalunya. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Analysis of control properties]{Analysis of control properties of convolutional concatenated codes under linear systems point of view http://hdl.handle.net/2117/22684 Analysis of control properties]{Analysis of control properties of convolutional concatenated codes under linear systems point of view García Planas, María Isabel; Um, Laurence Emilie; Souidi, El Mamoun In this paper we consider two models of concatenated convolutional codes from the perspective of linear systems theory. We present an input-state-output representation of these models and we study the conditions for control properties as controllability, observability as well as output observability. 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z On the cucker-smale flocking model applied to a formation moving in a central force field around the Earth http://hdl.handle.net/2117/22420 On the cucker-smale flocking model applied to a formation moving in a central force field around the Earth Paita, Fabrizio; Gomez Muntaner, Gerard; Masdemont Soler, Josep The Cucker – Smale (CS) flocking model is an interacting particles control system where every particle adjusts its dynamics according to a weighted average between its velocity and those of the other elements of the flock. Under this model, a rigid body configuration can be achieved exponentially fast for suitable initial configurations. Furthermore, as shown by J. Shen, if the dynamics of the formation is driven by the presence of a free willed leader then similar asymptotic results can be obtained. In the present paper we extend the CS control law in the context of a multi – spacecraft system moving around a central body. Some new analytical results are given, as well as the results of the numerical explorations that have been done to evaluate the performances of the control law, with particular attention to its interaction with a central gravitational field. These performances have been evaluated mainly through the use of two indicators: the evolution of the relative spacecrafts distances and the total fuel expended to maintain the formation. 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z Jet Transport propagation of uncertainties for orbits around the Earth http://hdl.handle.net/2117/21808 Jet Transport propagation of uncertainties for orbits around the Earth Pérez, Daniel; Masdemont Soler, Josep; Gómez Muntané, Gerard In this paper we present a tool to study the non-linear propagation of uncertainties for orbits around the Earth. The tool we introduce is known as Jet Transport and allows to propagate full neighborhoods of initial states instead of a single initial state by means of usual numerical integrators. The description of the transported neighborhood is ob- tained in a semi-analytical way by means of polynomials in 6 variables. These variables correspond to displacements in the phase space from the reference point selected in an orbit as initial condition. The basis of the procedure is a standard numerical integrator of ordinary differential equations (such as a Runge-Kutta or a Taylor method) where the usual arithmetic is replaced by a polynomial arithmetic. In this way, the solution of the variational equations is also obtained up to high order. This methodology is applied to the propagation of satellite trajectories and to the computation of images of uncertainty ellipsoids including high order nonlinear descriptions. The procedure can be specially adapted to the determination of collision probabilities with catalogued space debris or for the end of life analysis of spacecraft in Medium Earth Orbits 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z End-of-life disposal of libration point orbit spacecraft http://hdl.handle.net/2117/21807 End-of-life disposal of libration point orbit spacecraft Olikara, Zubin; Gómez Muntané, Gerard; Masdemont Soler, Josep In this work we investigate end-of-life trajectories for spacecraft in orbit about the Sun-Earth L 1 and L 2 libration points. A plan for decommission is often re- quired during the mission design process. We study the spacecraft's natural dynamics in both a high- delity model and the circular restricted three-body problem. In particular, we consider the role of the unstable manifold and forbidden regions in determin- ing disposal outcomes. A simple maneuver scheme to prevent returns to the Earth vicinity is also an- alyzed. We include discussion on potential collision orbit schemes. 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z

Reviews for Coricidin HBP Cold & Flu
For Cold Symptoms "Have COPD have had cold for over a week. MISERABLE. Thank goodness mostly in my head but have to be careful because of my breathing difficulties. Usually get Dr to send prescription for antibiotics,prednisone and Mucinex, but this was just cold with no yellow mucous. My daughter swears on CORICIDIN and got it for me. Started taking 2 days ago. Felt better after first 2 doses. Much improved feeling human and thanks CORICIDIN for no hospital stay."

For Influenza "As a substitute for Nyquil, this worked surprisingly well. I got a full night of comfortable sleep and woke the next morning marginally refreshed (I was, after all, fighting the flu). The only negative side effect of this drug is that it subtly puts you off your game. I took some and then drove to the store to get more medicine on the advice of a health nurse. Because I was slightly buzzed (but did not realize it) I almost ran a red light. Don't drive if you take this medicine."

MSNBC's "Hardball" host Chris Matthews has signed a long-term contract with the network, while canceling his weekend program, "The Chris Matthews Show."
"There are limits to what I can do in a week," Mr. Matthews said in a statement, obtained by TVNewser on Tuesday. "Henceforth, I intend to concentrate any time left over from 'Hardball' on writing books like the one I'm committed to now on the relationship between Tip O'Neill and Ronald Reagan, that and producing documentaries on history and politics."
The pundit thanked the executive producer of "The Chris Matthews Show," Nancy Nathan, for allowing him "to offer great Sunday morning television."
SEE ALSO: MSNBC's Chris Matthews calls Obama the 'perfect American' — again
"The Chris Matthews Show," which typically aired on Sunday, is a syndicated public affairs show produced out of the NBC News D.C. bureau. The final edition of the program will air July 21, TVNewser reports.
"I have been proud of every program and the chance to interview some of the best journalists in this country, and, yes, to have them 'tell me something I don't know,'" Mr. Matthews said.
His statement did not include the terms of a new contract with MSNBC.

Cobb finished with 138 yards on 15 carries, scoring twice, and Washington rushed seven times for 50 yards, breaking multiple tackles on his 24-yard TD run. Quarterback Shon Bridges completed all five pass attempts for 57 yards, including a 36-yard TD toss to Donnell Ward.
Ultimately, it was the Douglass defense that carried the load.
"When the offense turns the ball over, we don't have a choice but to live on our defense,†coach Willis Alexander said of a unit that has allowed more than 18 points only once all season. "The defense played well tonight. We've got to do a better job of holding onto the football if we plan on going any further.â€
Going further is definitely in the plans for a Trojan team that lost the 4A title to Star Spencer last season at Oklahoma State's Boone Pickens Stadium.
"After the first half, the coaches kept telling us we needed to turn it up, so that this wouldn't be our last game,†McKinney said. "We want to get back to Stillwater. That's all that matters.â€
Douglass will face top-ranked Broken Bow (12-0) at an undetermined neutral site next week. The Savages beat Elgin 33-13.

•originally published 10/30/2013 AT 4:00 PM ET
British model Liberty Ross learned that her husband of 10 years, director Rupert Sanders, was cheating on her with his Snow White and the Huntsman star, Kristen Stewart, only 20 hours before paparazzi photos of Sanders and Stewart hugging and kissing were published in a magazine.
"It was horrible," Ross tells Vanity Fair. "It was really the worst, really the worst."
Stepping in to protect his sister was Ross's brother, Atticus Ross, the Oscar-winning composer of The Social Network.
"I'm texting people because I know this is going to be huge," he tells the magazine. "It was about not destroying [Liberty]. I don't think people understand what being in the eye of that storm is like."
He reached out to record exec and American Idol mentor Jimmy Iovine (who has recently been romantically linked with Ross). Iovine provided her with p.r. support, while another friend offered Ross and her two kids a home on the California coast as a refuge from the photographers.
She had moved to Los Angeles with Sanders so that he could pursue his dreams as a director, but she says that even before Sanders was caught with the 19-years-younger Stewart, there were problems in their marriage. "We'd lost our real connection," she admits.

Mobile messaging has been a popular communication channel for more than 20 years. Finnish engineer Matti Makkonen invented the idea for SMS (Short Message Service) in 1984, making his vision a reality on December 3, 1992 by sending the first message ("Happy Christmas") from a PC to a cell phone. Since then, the technology has evolved immensely, from both a technology standpoint, and in our everyday uses for it. Originally used for person-to-person (P2P) communication, i.e., Sally sends a text message to Betty – mobile messaging now offers tremendous value to businesses for customer and empl...

As enterprises capture more and more data of all types – structured, semi-structured, and unstructured – data discovery requirements for business intelligence (BI), Big Data, and predictive analytics initiatives grow more complex. A company's ability to become data-driven and compete on analytics depends on the speed with which it can provision their analytics applications with all relevant information. The task of finding data has traditionally resided with IT, but now organizations increasingly turn towards data source discovery tools to find the right data, in context, for business users, d...

Clearly the way forward is to move to cloud be it bare metal, VMs or containers. One aspect of the current public clouds that is slowing this cloud migration is cloud lock-in.

Author Info
|Madeleine L'Engle
|Best known for her classic children's book, A WRINKLE IN TIME, winner of the 1963 Newbery Medal, Madeleine L'Engle also wrote dozens of books for adults. Her writing was deeply influenced by her childhood, during which she suffered through a series of bad school experiences. L'Engle attended Smith College and married Hugh Franklin, an actor, with whom she had three children. Many of her books are a combination of science fiction, fantasy, and spirituality. Interestingly, although her books often contain a strong Christian element, they have sometimes been challenged for what some believe to be an "anti-Christian message." In 1997 she was honored with the World Fantasy Award for lifetime achievement, and in 2004 was a recipient of the National Humanities Medal. She died at the age of 88.
|The oldest of five children, Anna Quindlen grew up in an Irish-Italian family outside Philadelphia. She attended Barnard College, and in 1974 began her career as a reporter. Her column in the New York Times was enormously successful, and in 1992 she won a Pulitzer Prize for her newspaper work. In 1995, she quit her job at the Times to write fiction full time.
|"Imaginative readers should find it wholly absorbing--for in her highly accelerated spin through space, Miss L'Engle never loses sight of human needs and emotions."
From the Publisher
|A classic battle of good versus evil as well as a reflection on the value of being true to oneself and the power of love and faith, A WRINKLE IN TIME is the first book in the Time Quartet series. Meg Murry, the daughter of two brilliant scientists, is a socially awkward 12-year-old who has trouble fitting in at school. Her closest friend is her younger brother, Charles Wallace, an extremely bright 4-year-old who is also gifted with second sight. Accompanied by friend Calvin O'Keefe, and aided by the unearthly trio of Mr. Whatsit, Mrs. Who, and Mrs. Which, Meg and Charles Wallace travel to another dimension is search of their missing father--a scientist who has been experimenting with time travel. However, in order to rescue Mr. Murry, Meg, Charles Wallace, and Calvin must first do battle with the evil, and all controlling, IT. The final three books in the series are A WIND IN THE DOOR, A SWIFTLY TILTING PLANET, and MANY WATERS. A companion book, AN ACCEPTABLE TIME, features some of the same characters. Although initially rejected by several publishing houses, A WRINKLE IN TIME was first published in 1962 and is the winner of the 1963 Newbery Medal.
|First Line
|It was a dark and stormy night.
|Editors Note
|It was a dark and stormy night; Meg Murry, her small brother Charles Wallace, and her mother had come down to the kitchen for a midnight snack when they were upset by the arrival of a most disturbing stranger."Wild nights are my glory," the unearthly stranger told them. "I just got caught in a downdraft and blown off course. Let me sit down for a moment, and then I'll be on my way. Speaking of ways, by the way, there is such a thing as a tesseract."A tesseract (in case the reader doesn't know) is a wrinkle in time. To tell more would rob the reader of the enjoyment of Miss L'Engle's unusual book. A Wrinkle in Time, winner of the Newbery Medal in 1963, is the story of the adventures in space and time of Meg, Charles Wallace, and Calvin O'Keefe (athlete, student, and one of the most popular boys in high school). They are in search of Meg's father, a scientist who disappeared while engaged in secret work for the government on the tesseract problem.

Our strategy and business plan
We're improving the way we inspect and regulate health and social care services to make sure they provide people with safe, effective, compassionate and high-quality care, and to encourage services to make improvements.
In 2013 we launched a three-year strategy outlining our new approach to regulation. This included the introduction of specialist inspections using teams of experts. We are now developing a new five-year strategy, which we will launch in April 2016.
Developing our new strategy (2016 to 2021)
Our new strategy will focus on how we can help to address the challenges facing the health and social care sector while we continue to make sure we are always on the side of the people who use services. More than just an organisational strategy, we want it to be a vision for the future of quality regulation.
We are focusing on three key areas in developing our new strategy
- Looking at how providers use the resources available to deliver high-quality care.
- Looking at factors that affect quality beyond individual providers – e.g. pathways of care and geographical regions.
- Refining our model to make it more efficient and effective by:
- Considering the balance between registration, inspection, monitoring and information from providers (or partners).
- Considering how we can do more to encourage improvement in quality, alongside our partners.
We'll continue to report on our progress. In the meantime, you can find out more about our journey so far by looking at our presentation.

The Brew KettleDecember 31, 2013Brewery • Strongsville, United States
Coleslaw is great - French fries not so much. Decent bar food somewhere in the middle of nowhere... ;)
Coleslaw is great - French fries not so much. Decent bar food somewhere in the middle of nowhere... ;)
Topopo (without the chicken) and margaritas... All you need ;)
Smaller than small hole in the wall... Excellent chips and salsa
The pub fries are insanely good.
The beer is pretty tasty and cold. The food is horrible (lacks seasoning, served cold and just really not prepared well). Hope they can fix the kitchen. Disappointing. Probably wont be back. :(
Wednesday everything (almost) on the menu just $5 (regular portions)... And 1/2 off bottles of vino... Yay.
Don't let all the choices overwhelm you... Just smell your way to the perfect tea!
No shirt, no shoes... But you still get service...
$5 almost everything on the menu on Wednesday's... Not a bad deal for bar grub and drinks mid week.
Ugh... So this is our take-out sushi... But quality just keeps getting worse. The thickest gummiest dense rolls I have ever had. Moving on Rise... Sesame Calamari is its only redeeming item.
Tuesdays: $2 off bags o beans...
Soggy pizzette, flavorless calamari and orzo, and not great service. Won't be back.
Try the Bowtruss. Pour over v60... It does not disappoint...
Bring an umbrella - not an ounce of shade on southeast field!
Eyes on the road peeps...
Don't go to the 6pm class if you like your personal space #overcrowded is an understatement
Good piano classes for kids
Usually crowded - but not all that bad for the deal...

SLHS runner Williams headed to Nicholls
Published: Tuesday, May 19, 2009 at 11:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, May 19, 2009 at 11:36 p.m.
GALLIANO South Lafourche cross-country coach Joey Guidroz said that if he could have 100 runners like Dylan Williams, he would gladly take them on his team.
Theres only one Dylan Williams, though, and next year hell be running cross country at Nicholls State
Williams signed a letter-of-intent with Nicholls in the South Lafourche library on Monday morning.
It feels amazing, Williams said. I worked hard. I didnt run cross country as a freshman, but I (started) as a sophomore, and Ive worked hard at it.
Williams said its been a goal of his to run in college and credits Guidroz for his development as a runner during his high school years.
I couldnt ask for a better coach, Williams said. He taught me discipline and respect. I really appreciated everything hes done for me. Hes the reason that Im moving on to the next level. Hes pushed me to be the best I can.
Guidroz, meanwhile, credited Williams for playing a key role in South Lafourches cross-country and track programs.
A great, really well-rounded individual, Guidroz said in describing Williams. Hes improved tremendously, and its through self-discipline and doing the right things. Nicholls is getting a good one.
He developed into one of the leaders, which is helping out our program. It will help it out next year, because the younger ones saw what theyre supposed to be doing, not only on the running track, but in the classroom as well.
Williams finished 88th (17:35) at the Class 5A state cross-country meet in November, improving on 2007s 91st-place (18:20) and 2006s 149th place (20:33).
He also finished fifth (17:36) at last seasons district meet.
I work really hard, Williams said of what he can bring to Nicholls cross-country team. I understand my role on any team. Im not going to try to be a hero or anything, Im just going to know my role and do the best that I can do.
He added that Nicholls was attractive because of its proximity to home and friends that are already on the team.
I looked at a bunch of schools, and I realized that Nicholls is close enough to home, but its far enough to still do my little freedom thing, Williams said. And I have friends there, too. Tyler Folse runs at Nicholls, and me and him got real close when he was running (at South Lafourche).
Guidroz added, It was a dream of his. He knew he could do it academically. In the classroom, he did super. But he just wanted to run, also. Its something that the more you put in, the more you get out of it. Hes a super kid. Ill take 100 of them every year like him.
